Wargamers challenge 2018 - come Join me

[Warboss Nick]

I count similarly with my yearly goal, but I reduce „painting points“ for smaller scales. So it‘s 1/2 point for 15mm infantry etc.

Paint more than buy has worked reasonably well in recent years, and I include sales and trade offs.

However I don‘t seem to be able to reach much more than 200 painting points on the year, inclusive terrain. And it usually takes a strong push in december to do so. Even with a big project with a simple, basic paintjob (NKE) I didn‘t come close to 365.

Hats off to anyone reaching one miniature per day, while I will try to reach my much smaller goal again in 2018.

Pretty sure I won't paint more this month.



Not pictured are ten repainted Crossbowmen and some progress with a house row. I might open a thread to present the models more closely and tell some stories of them. Very unfocused when it comes to games, so mainly painting what I fancy.

So how would you point these models, according to the challenge system presented in the opening post?

I'll try to get a photo up but for January I painted 14 points of First Nation figures from Pulp Miniatures for their Flint & Feather game.

No photo since bases not textured yet, but painted 36 pronghorn antelope (Irregular miniatures 15 mm) for my old west/plains/apache wars collection in January.  Same models will be used for various gazelles in Africa - 48 tommies, 24 grants, 24 impalas.

The painting table is very busy so far this year.  Closing in on finishing several French and Indian War units, too.  And tinkering with my Old West freight cars - modified Peter Pig flat cars into cattle cars, tanks cars, and gondolas.

May the painting winds stay at my back and propel me ever forward.

May the painting winds stay at my back and propel me ever forward. 

Amen to that!

I just spent most of my holiday sitting around in New Zealands most unloved city but I have managed to produce some infantry for the Back of Beyond so 11 points so far.
