Hello and welcome to the first log of this project.

Firstly this project once completed will form a memorial for those lost during the Covid 19 pandemic. This includes any wargamers, gamers, hobbiests, painters, sculptors and of course friends and family from across the world. I hope to incorporate the names of those lost in some way into the build.

Now into the concept and planning before the build

An old spray can buried in the shed

During lockdown I took the oppitunity to clear out the old shed, something I had been avoiding for a fair while. At the back corner though I found an old spray can of Chaos Black with the original ‘Citadel’ logo. Amazingly the can still worked and I managed to get a few bits base coated. When it was finally empty I didn’t want to chuck it though. I’m not sure how long it had been waiting to be found, like myself locked away in isolation. The logo as well brought back a wave of memories from when I joined the community and the years making friends. As such I thought, why not build it?

And so here we are. Next comes the planning stage.
