This year's painting challenge

Back in 2013 Adrian, Andy and I undertook a 40K Combat patrol 400 point painting challenge. You can see the results here.

The net result was the completion of my L&tD mutants, Adrian's Necrons, and Andy's Guard (well he didn't quite make 400 points. We didn't really want to start new armies, but the painting challenge certainly progresses projects, so this year it's a 40K vehicle challenge.

I've chosen a Defiler to give the L&tD a little more Chaos firepower, although frankly I a much more interested in the enjoyment of painting a very cool model.




Andy is tackling a Dreadnought, and I haven't heard from Adrian yet.. I suspect something Dark Eldar'ish.

Hopefully we'll keep the blog updated with photos of our progress.

      The plan is to try and create the time.. that;'s why I invited the other two to participate and make it a challenge. Nothing like a bit of competitive pressure. Here's hoping. Then I'll get back to the 6mm WW1 stuff.. of which I have oodles coming out my ears. Oh, and I want to create Brit and German 20mm armour for 1940 France for our 20mm Spearhead .. for WHEN we get back to playing LOL
