I have to make a confession though, at the time of writing this, it's December 3rd and I still do not know 100% what I am going to do for the challenge.
Here is what I do know:
1. I am painting Tyranids
2. I have a lot of unpainted Tyranids.
3. After the Renegade Open I have so many list ideas rolling around in my head that it is hard to keep focused!
So here is the commitment I am going to make for the hobby challenge:
I am going to paint at least $75 worth of Tyranids every month during the challenge. I will decide at the beginning of each month what models I will paint based on whatever crazy list idea is rolling around in my melon.
If you all remember a while back I posted about trying to become a better painter and taking you all on that journey with me? Well that journey begins with this hobby challenge. I will be trying out new, more in depth paint schemes for my Leviathan Tyranids and you all will get to see and decide if I succeed or fail in this endeavor.
So what is the plan for December?
I want to ease into this new paint scheme and ease into the new techniques I will be using so I selected some models that I have a lot of and that I am not running a lot in current lists. That way if I have some struggles, I haven't screwed up a centerpiece kit for an upcoming tourney. That's thinkin'!
