About the Project
A log for my progress returning to 40K after noping out at the end of 5th but subsequently being drawn back in my 8th edition. The plan is for this to cover how I am re-purposing old armies that never went anywhere, finding better ways to paint mass armies,making units stand out via conversions & kitbashing, and coming up with forces that are fluffy & cool, rather than game breaking. (And I should point out, a good portion of this will essentially be recapping my progress since beginning this project in the months before 40k 8th Edition landed, up to the present day before it becomes a more standard blog updating as progress is made)

You're in the Army Now...
Lovely kits to mess around with the new Cadians….
Welcome to the Jungle
May have gone a bit nuts on the Reptillian Overlords/Wargames Atlantic SpaceNam….
Kasrkin
Digging the new Kasrkin. Got a second box to build, and need to grab some spare bodies to use all the spare kit with….
Stuff
So a bit of priming, a bit of assembly, and a bit of stripping old models brought off Ebay…..
Prime Time
Figured this weekend was a good opportunity to get caught up on some priming. Didn’t get as much done as I’d like as my dominant arm has been playing up (this post is brought to you by a lovely cocktail of painkillers….), but did make some progress:
- Sisters of Battle – got the remaining Sisters from this army primed, giving me a force of easily 100 very angry space nuns. My main force is primed in Army Painter Dragon Red, whilst the unique characters I hit with Grey Seer.
- Shadowsword – This one has been on the “to paint” pile for a while as I built it over 2 years ago. So far just primed with Army Painter Army Green.
- Death Korps Of Krieg – More Army Painter primer, this time the last of my Wolf Grey, which gets the greatcoats done easily.
- Silent Sisters – And finally some reinforcements for the Talons of The Emperor. I still have four more to prime but my Chaos Black ran out as I was finishing the main batch. This also included some repalcment bits for previosuly completed sisters damaged when my old shelf collapsed.
Heroes of The Imperium
Started in on my big-ol’ load of resin minis, and figured an easy start would be this alternate version of Commissar Yarrick from Brother Vini. I will always have a soft spot for the 3rd Ed resculpt, but it is showing it’s age. This one is a bit more in keeping with Old Bale Eye’s reputation. And Alongside him is the inimitable Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt.
Ghostmaker
Something immensely satisfying about getting all the parts (we don’t talk about the pouches….) for my Gaunt’s Ghosts force clipped out and organised ready for building….
