I've had some nasty health issues since the middle of March, and while it seems to be under control now, it's left me with shaky hands, which as we all know isn't very conducive to painting, so forgive me if this month's installment isn't up to the standard of the rest:
A group Challenge to Paint a NEW Army for Warhammer Fantasy Battle or Rogue Trader

Rochie's Mulligan Post
Really wasn't planning on taking a mulligan at all during this challenge, but this month has seen me more ill than I've ever been, swollen joints have me crippled.
So, unfortunately I have to call this month a fail and hope the test results come back in time for treatment to start so that I can finish strong next month, so until then well done to all my fellow participants and here's to the grand finale!

Rochies Skaven, in by a whisker! 189points
Hello!
Another month gone and and another crop of cracking entries, we'll done everyone!
I can't lie, I struggled a bit this month, I can't explain why given I only had ten models to paint (and I'm eleven points shy of the 200, oh well!), but I just couldn't get into it at all. Maybe it was because I've already painted my fill of clanrats and plague monks, maybe it was misplacing my army book up til ten minutes ago, who knows? But the important part is I screeched in sideways, so here we are!

Rochie's Ho Ho Holy shit!! A rat ogre!!: 226 pts
Hello and seasons greetings folks, hope everyone has had and is having a cracking time doing whatever it is you're doing!
So here we are in the second month of the challenge, and given the time of year I decided to play it safe this month and just get a few high value models done to stop me getting bogged down. So without further ado, I present to you this month's installment!

Rochie's: We're going to need a bigger cat...November 237 Pts
Hello!
I've managed to screech in with my first months installment, that being Warlord Ratbastard, a good chunk of clanrats, and a last minute rat pack with an old champion model as a packmaster:

Rochie's Rat Bastards
Hello there!
Right, first off, hello to everyone here (and the readers!), for those of you who don't know me, I'm Rochie, 34, GSOH, hung like a coke can, etc. I'm a relatively late starter, getting into little metal men in 1995 at the age of twelve when a school friend invited me to his house to try out this thing called "Necromunda". From that day on I was absolutely hooked. There was no GW shops in Ireland at the time, but I was pointed in the direction of a model shop in the city centre that stocked their products and away I went. Every Saturday I would go into town with my ma and while she did whatever mas do on a Saturday in town, I'd scuttle off to the model shop to spend my pocket money on whatever blister pack took my fancy which resulted in what can only be called an eclectic collection, where termagants with spike rifles rubbed shoulders with eldar swooping hawks and other such randomness. I did a short stint working in gw Dublin before there was the usual break for college and women, and then I ended up blowing the dust off my collection to start playing against a fellow nerd I met while doing my apprenticeship. As time went on, I amassed a few large armies but then I met my now wife, who introduced me to Talisman 2nd edition.
