In one of the last Tale of the Mega Painter’s updates, I mentioned we’re only a couple of months away from the end of the year and I toyed with the idea of only painting Necrons for the rest of the year to finish this project. Over a month later and I’ve painted a Helbrute, a Goblin Standard, three Termagaunt test models, reviewed the new paints, made a greenstuff tutorial and reviewed White Dwarf. Why can’t I just focus on Necrons? I think I’ve been subconsciously trying to avoid painting the Doomsday Ark since I bought the megaforce. It’s pretty big with lots of sub-assemblies to paint. It actually took me five evenings to clean all the pieces up and assemble it. As with all these “horrible” projects, the hardest part is starting them and as you can see I’m well underway.

I admire your patience, m8. Those edge highlights give me a headache just looking at them! Love the work though, and looking forward to seeing it completed.
How long do you hobby for in the evenings? I' find it hard even going to work if I got that much stuff done!
Couple of hours a night. I'm very economical with my time. I plan and use it wisely.
I recently heard someone complain they were bored… I wish I had enough spare time to be bored.
You and me both……. work and a one year old means almost no hobby time the only saving grace is a very understanding wife, still so many projects so little time……
No they won't fit if you glue the rib sections together. I haven't glued mine, it's a dry fit.
Nice WiP.
Btw, can those Gauss batteries fit in after you've assembled all the main hull (painted sections) together?
