Hi everyone  A good news post ahead. Let's start off with the title of the post, 2nd company is all done! This is the first of two full primaris companies, this one in Mark IX armour. Painting was all finished for the last post, so this week was all about painting all the bases and transfers, before finishing off with the traditional company shoot: Captain Drusus Seneca and command squad  With these boys done I now have four fully painted, based, and squad marked companies. Six to go... The last major development this week was the arrival of a special order. Consisting of 42 vanguard, 3 outriders, an attack bike, a land speeder, 3 suppressors, 3 bladeguard and an emperors champion, and along with 3 eliminators that arrived on the weekend, I have now completed all 10 companies! I'm pretty excited to hit this point, and very surprised at how quick its come along. Huge thanks to those have helped out with models so far!

New year, same army!

And here they all are, not bad for a weeks worth! Christmas bought me some goodies of the marine variety, in the form of ATVs and inceptors: Actual new in box models making an appearance for a change! The Christmas pile brings 3rd company and 8th company to a finish for model buying, leaving just 6th and 10th to go. In between Christmas and new year, I chipped away at the last squad of intercessors and
