As I'm away for the weekend, this evenings post work time was taken up by a date night with my amazing wife. While great, not much hobby progress, so I'm going to count "packing".
The army is looking ok - happy with what I've finished but there's still quite a bit to go.

I received my chapter approved deck today so had a wee look through it to prep for the event. Didn't really manage much painting, but there is technically more on the disintegrator than there was yesterday.

Working on the metals...not a fan. Think I need to find a few guides on a better way to do it, particularly for large models 🤔

All the non-metal and glowey bits done & matt varnished and started improving the metals. I still don't really know how to make them look good, so not looking forward to this bit.

A little progress on the platform - finished the non-metallics for a matt varnish to blend in the transfers. Also some base coating on servo skulls I’m going to use as haloscreed markers.

While I find posting only a little like screaming into the void, I did find it helped me make consistent progress, so I'll give it a shot again for my next event.

Had a great time at the event Sunday as well - just too busy and tired to post about with the Nottingham to North of Scotland drive.
Round 4 was a win vs Tau
Round 5 was a loss to Worldeaters.
Both games were awesome - my favourite opponents and the games were tight.

Lost round 3, 36-83 vs Custodes.
Didn't wrap my Breachers quite well enough & they're key in that match.
Very nice opponent (everyone has been great).

Bit of taser goad work (...don't think it actually improved anything), a new gun for my dunecrawler and more base work on my electropriests.
Tomorrow's probably my last opportunity to do anything before I start the journey south - probably work on bases.

I should have been painting electropriests, but was distracted by helldivers. As long as I can get them to at least "battle ready" tomorrow, I'll be in a good spot.
