Since 2012 the fantastic Warhammer 40k podcast, the Independent Characters, have run a hobby progress challenge on their forums. The goal of the challenge is to have a painted army by the end of the year. All the details can be found in the forum so I won't go into it too much here. Even though I have been in this hobby for almost 20 years I have never had a fully painted army to field on the table. Well that might not be totally true. When I was in high school I probably had enough painted ork stuff to field a fully painted force, but they were so badly painted I don't really feel like they should count. I mean I never even used primer or washes back then lol.
