Decided to do a bit more of a monthly summary approach this year, just to stay in touch with my plans since (at least until now) they changed quite dynamically!
WIP:
I'll try and publish these once around the middle of each month so it's easier to track and see how are things going!
This one is posted quite late because I was not sure if I want to do it but finally convinced myself! More of a glimps into my plans and hobby priorities if you will :)
The status for late December was:
WIP:
15mm Humvee - needs windows/headlights etc.
6 Legions imperialis mechanicus terrain - drop it as it's not needed?
Full Spectrum Dominance - Enlisted infantry and Artillery - needs another coat of green - drop after that?
Some 6mm architectonic diorama cars - these I just do when I have some leftover paint
Planned
Legions imperialis army - something small to check the system. Need a list which I can build up to/from.
January:
The year started with an unexpected Mordheim game!
Initially, I wanted to use grey plastic/resin but decided that I did not want that.
Initially, I wanted to use grey plastic/resin but decided that I did not want that.
It's not a game I play regularly (the last game was over two years ago!), so I had no big pressure to have a full new warband painted (especially since I already had a dark elf one painted with a lot of options).
But in the end, I decided it's not in my style to play greys if I have the time to put on at least basic colors.
A quick airbrush session (prolonged just a little bit) and I had pushed them waaay more than I was planning on! A few days after the game, (AFTER I decided that I was not going to paint them up just yet because I'm not really sure when the next game will pop up) (even though I kind of hate the fact that they are half done and just lying there) a news bomb dropped!
Frostgrave author will be on Pyrkon this year and will be actually playing games of Frostgrave!
I dream come true (of a dream I technically never had)!
I dream come true (of a dream I technically never had)!
I never played any Frostgrave so found that to be a wonderful opportunity to start! And since I already had a few models started in painting I decided to add a few more to have some kind of basic warband ready.
Looks like legions Imperialis will be pushed back a bit more
I also have a few things in painting that I don't really want to paint but they are halfway done (probably an under-evaluation of their state) and it would make it so much cleaner :)
I would like to start working on the 6/15 mm terrains but there are still quite a few things to do ...
I don't really need the Frostgrave band rigth now...
Maybe they should land on hold? But that will be thing number 4 that landed on hold ... and the motivation is there at the moment, no way to tell how the situation will look like in a few weeks/months.
I did manage to finish the last Hummve lenses and finish it at the end of the month!
There was supposed to be a Solaris7 convention in March in Warsaw but it moved to March so I'm not sure I'll be able to catch that.
The status for the end of January is:
Done:
- 15mm Humvee - needs windows/headlights etc.
- 5 Fantasy Frostgrave 28mm miniatures
- 3 Legions imperialis mechanicus terrain
WIP:
- 3 Legions imperialis mechanicus terrain - I'm finishing them for a how-to-paint video!
- Full Spectrum Dominance - Enlisted infantry and Artillery - they got another green coat - drop after that?
- 4 Fantasy Frostgrave 28mm miniatures that need finishing up
- 2 Fantasy Frostgrave 28mm miniatures that need full time painting (Mage + apprentice)
- Ankylo miniatures 6-8mm Vostroyan command squat - basecoat and shades. probably drop after this since I only wanted to test them with the new Solar Auxilia?
- Panthera Warforge 3 units of infantry - base + highlights + red - drop? finish? Not sure!
- Some 6mm architectonic diorama cars - these I just do when I have some leftover paint
Planned
- Legions imperialis army - something small to check the system. Need a list that I can build up to/from.
- Maybe some Gaslands cars? It's been over 5 years since I last made any and I potentially found some new (old) players!
- 6mm terrains!
Got some done!
A lot of things jumped to WIP (which is bad)!
I probably need to drop most of what I currently keep as WIP and just finish the projects closest to closing.
One how to paint video half way recorded!
