This week I have mostly been cleaning Drop Pod parts and having my soul slowly eaten away with every scrape of the Stanley knife and rasp of the modelling file.

With seven Drop Pods to build, it's been hard going and I finally understood what so many people meant when they said that the Drop Pod kit was a soul destroying monster.

The sheer amount of flash and mould lines are just astounding. But I've soldiered through night after night and cleaned as many of the big parts as possible, which now reside in a massive plastic Tesco bag.

On the bright side, I plan to purchase a pack of Void Claws and a Stormfang when I venture to SALUTE on Saturday. Who knows what else I may be tempted to buy while I'm there?

But first, I must finish off my power armoured Wolf Guard.

In other news, I've been chatting with Jake over at Cadian Shock and may get a game arranged against him once my army is done!

In the meantime, it's back to the tedious task of trimming and cleaning all the little fiddly bits for my Drop Pod kits.
