I’ve made a respectable dent in the mass of infantry for Joe. I had to bounce around a bit on the units since some appear to be lacking all the parts and I’m hoping as I get to other units that I’ll find the parts I need. That and some questions I had for Joe on units I started that needed answering before I continued on those units. That being said, I primed all five in the Command squad and the 10 Veterans (both units were sent assembled), I built and primed the 10 Assault Marines, I have the 17 from the Reserve squad about 90% complete (build-wise), 10 Tacts about 75% complete and another 10 Tacts about 50% complete.  I should be able to wrap up those partially completed units in the next few days and that will leave me a handful of units to go. Be on to painting soon!

I’ve decided to change my previous approach with Joe’s army. Now that the Dreads are pretty much done I’m going to keep on with the modeling side of things and jump to the infantry instead of taking a break and base coating the vehicles. I figure I may as well keep to the current process and keep my stride going even if I’m tired of gluing my fingers together and cutting my thumb.

I currently have eight of Joe’s Dreadnoughts fully assembled. The last one I just have to finish gluing an arm and it’s done. So far I have six of those Dreadnoughts primed and should have all nine of them all primed by tonight. Once the priming is done I’ll be going back to the vehicles to get a base coat on those and then all the tanks and Dreadnoughts will be complete. This will be a respectable milestone but I still have a lot left to do.
