@Warboss_Waaazag - Thanks man!
@Gits - Cheers
@Zerg - I know right, there isn't much left to do with the GK's! but there is heaps for my marines
@Cam - I sometimes worry it gets repetitive which is why I did a couple of years of randoms (Tau, Necrons and Chaos Demons)
Update: Been working on 5 Paladins throughout the days each has a different start to see what is quicker to do

Is it making it harder to do the whole squad when you do different stages on each one? It would seem that it'd be hard to keep track. Plus a lot of switching paints. They look good so far though!

@Zerg - Oh yes, getting into a flow then having to put it all aside to edge highlight armour means I have to really be on the ball to ensure I don't miss things, but it isn't monotonous thats for sure!
@EDC - Thanks dude!
@Aetare - Welcome to the blog! thanks for the comment
@Azazelx - As soon as these guys are done you'll get an army shot

The hooded heads work pretty well, Knightley - any plans to convert up some Primaris Grey Knights once the proper kits for 8th Ed drop (as opposed to starter set models)?

@Zerg - Cheers, some of them needed to cut down as the had wide jaw areas and it didn't work with the head area, happy they work
@Dysartes - I have thought about it, but I have made my self a promise of not buying any more models till I have finished all the back log, I really like the look so its a good motivator!
@Cam - Hahah, just play them with no heads and call them invisible, love it
@Gits - No worries, I'm happy to wait.
