Hobbits are done, and now on to my next project, the Horus Heresy, Betrayal at Calth. I decided to start by assembling the Contemptor and I think I'll try to do all of the Word Bearers first before moving onto the Ultra marines. I'm hoping to airbrush them, so I'll be doing some sub assembly first before applying the main colours. Hopefully I can come up with an efficient process. I'm thinking of leaving their backpacks and shoulder pads off, but I'm not sure about their weapons.
As for the Contemptor, I think I'll make a few cuts and rotate the arms and torso. It looks pretty static and maybe a little modification will go a long way.
Some hobbits battling it out on my desk:
