The editions, they are a changing

  Hi everyone  So, in case you haven't heard, there is a new edition of 40k on the horizon!  This isn't a post about my opinions on the new edition etc, but more about the realization I had while thinking about the new edition. 9th is just about 3 years old, and the chapter project is about 2.5 years old. Which means I've basically done nothing but paint silver and green for an entire edition. Now, I don't regret anything, but a think the dawn of a new edition is probably a good time to get this project done. Well, right up until the new box set launches in any case. So, with the finish line in sight, I sat down to have a look at what was left. A quick look at my tracker tells me I have remaining: 208 infantry 68 vehicles 2 super heavies  That's, a lot. Of that, around 216 or so need bases, and they all likely need transfers.

Hi everybody  I've been having some issues with the blogger app lately, so that's slowed my updates a little. It seems to be working today however, so lets catch up on the last few weeks.  First up was 9th company.  I had completed them a few weeks back in a batch, then recently finished the transfers and bases. This leaves me with only two companies to go, but before I could start on them, I had a tournament to attend. The event was warp wars, a 2k teams event in Auckland. To finish up the list I had some weapon swaps, and a couple models to paint. I also had time to add campaign badges  to everyone.  Also huge thanks to the people that had been reading the blog and came up to say hi! Lastly, I have now kicked off the next company batch, 10th company. There are 40 or so done already, so I hoped this will be faster than the previous batches, but so far it's been a little slow.  Next update when they are painted.  See you then -Mark
