Army Painters 2017 (AP 2017) - Compiled List of Projects

[Lowtardog]

Oh shit. I thought that was when we were supposed to start painting. 

Me too, the plan is to aim and get the army done by August, may have to change my Army painter (I hope) to Game of Thrones wildlings

[meninobesta]

Yes, the first post with painted minis should be around August 1st, give or take a few days

oops... 

I think I've started too soon....

what's the overall idea? to post only finished minis? or are WIP photos welcomed?

anyway...
soundtrack for the day:

There is no 'starting too soon' everyone

Or even 'too late'... just strive to get a 'unit' (however you define that) and put a pic up around the 1st of the month. Easy! If your first unit doesn't show up until Sept. 1st, no big deal... I submitted pics a month late in previous years.

Does it have to be units from a specific army, or is a linked theme okay? Things like various GOT factions or different Frostgrave warbands/ random encounters?

[OSHIROmodels]

Linked will be fine 

It's more of an impetus to get things painted than an outright 'competition' with rules etc.

cheers

Sounds good, I think I'll join in to make a dent in the unpainted hordes

Considering how little I have pained this year another AP project might do the trick.  So many choices to choose from...

[Kommando_J]

Bought myself a Congo column, as well as BUF and LDV forces for bolt action sealion, may need to get onboard...

[Billchuck]

I'm in as well. I'm not sure what I'll paint yet, but I have plenty to choose from.

[HerbyF]

Well I'm going to keep painting. I have painted over 300 figures from my old lead pile so far this year. Just keep plugging away at it. Just primed a bunch of cavalry figures. A few Normans, some men at arms, a few Saracens, and some very old riders of Rohan. (old Heritage & Der Kreigspieler) been sitting around longer than many of you have even been alive.

[OSHIROmodels]

Gonna post my first one at the weekend and get a headstart on myself 

cheers

[Vonkluge]

Since I normally paint army's as opposed to several figures this is for me!!! is there an Icon we receive? That would be cool! In fact if there isn't I volunteer to create one if needed! 

[sondermann]

I'm in.

Caveat: All my projects are for skirmish games, so technically I won't be painting an army. But I will commit to paint a skirmish faction a month. And as I'm rotating my projects by season, my AP contribution will include Old West Posses, Call of Cthulhu Investigators and Beasties and finally Frostgrave gangs.

[OSHIROmodels]

Paint what you want 

It's impetus and inspiration to get those long untouched figures the love they deserve 

I don't think a badge is needed as it's 'unofficial' but if people want to put something in their sig then by all means do so 

cheers

AP2016 kept me honest and kept me painting - so count me in!  Not sure what I'll do though!
