I'm planning on setting myself up for another 'Army Painter' challenge this year. I skipped last year as I was just plain burnt out, and my painting output suffered for it!

Here's an old thread on the idea:
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=55393.0

I'd propose that the gist of 'Army Painters' stays the same- it is not a competition, no records are kept, we paint a 'unit' of roughly 5-30 figures each month, and post them on or around the first day for sixth months, August 2016 to January 2017. Each person maintains their own thread and labels it starting with '(Army Painters 2016)' so that we can find each other's project.

I'm going for Darkest Africa Azande and maybe some DA Pygmies if I can squeeze them in.

Who else is interested?

I would be, but my painting output is terrible atm (less than 1 mini/week - and I think I suffer too heavily from 'butterfly syndrome' to keep working on a limited choice of models, to be honest).
Ask at the LAF, and answer shall thy be given!

Well then, since my goals for the rest of this year are 2 painted GoT Lion Rampant armies, I guess I am in!

That's my problem too - but I'll try.
I still have to choose my force, something with a quick-to-apply scheme.
My Iyanden Eldar would have been ideal but for one minor detail - I only have 4 models.....!

Having just finished my 2015 Army, I don't think there is enough of 2016 left for me to start another one.

I'm afraid I'm too much of a butterfly to concentrate on an entire army in one sitting...

I'm in.  :)  I need some sort of accountability to force me to paint at this point.  lol  I've been on a roll doing more of the pre-painting stuff lately (basing, assembly, condensing the sprues and sprues and sprues of plastic figures into fewer containers, reorganizing storage, etc...) and plan on getting an airbrush, so an August start date gives me time to line this stuff up.

One question though - does it have to be only one Army? The bulk of the painting will likely be for  Lion Rampant/To The Strongest! for Game of Thrones, but I'll also have This Is Not A Test and Frostgrave warbands/wandering monsters to paint up.  Just "unitize" these skirmish figures into groups to keep with the theme?

I'd hate to start imposing 'rules', so feel free to work on multiple projects ;)
