This month has been slow going, a mixture of depression and the heat has really slowed my painting to a crawl.
I am currently at 835 models painted for the year.
Paint 2000 Points of Necrons for Warhammer 40,000 – 78.75%
This number has actually gone down thanks to points changes in Chapter Approved, so I may be revisiting this to work out a new list.
But sadly no work done on models for the list this month.
But I was able to paint a unit of Lychguard armed with Warscythes.
Paint 2000 Points of Flesh-Eater Courts for Warhammer Age of Sigmar – 46.5% Complete
The new editor of Age of Sigmar means a new Generals Handbook and new points, so here is my revised army list.

This weekend I was at EGX showing video gamers how to play some brilliant tabletop games with Asmodee.
Me and Lindsay flew out to Dublin on Tuesday for WorldCon, which is the convention of the World Science Fiction Society, and is a pretty big deal, it’s also where the Hugo Awards are handed out.
We then went straight to Bewleys for lunch, which is an amazing tea house on Grafton Street, we had mushroom and tarragon soup, I had mine with an open sandwich and Lindsay had here with a scone and it was a most delicious lunch when paired with a cup of Irish Afternoon tea.
We had a pizza for tea, a large one with sausage, egg, bacon and mushrooms on it, after popping into Lidl for some supplies to make sarnies with.
When we reached O’Connell street we went to Supermacs for our lunch, we both had 5oz bacon and cheese burgers, Lindsay had hers with curry cheese fries, I had mine with garlic cheese fries, and it was really nice, much nicer than a McDonalds.
The we walked down to Bewleys for an afternoon tea and then to Dunnes to pick up some Rock Shandy, Taytos and Cadbury’s Mint Crisp to take home to the UK, then back to the hotel where we chilled out, even popping up to the roof top terrace where Lindsay attempted to do some of her daily exercises and we had nesi goreng from Lidl for tea.
The next day we made our way to the CCD by bus and began the day with some Accessible Star Trek Yoga, which is a lot harder than it sounds. After that we attended a panel on Liking Problematic Tings and then a workshop on an Introduction to Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition, which I have yet to play properly.
And I also got to playtest the next edition of Cthulhu Dice with Steve Jackson, who also signed my autograph book and copy of Munchkin Warhammer 40,000, so I squeed a bit at that!!!
