Maybe people could set their goal at the start and try to stick with it.

For example I will probably aim to paint 5-10 guys a month as that's a bit of a push but a realistic goal for the amount of time I actually feel well enough to paint and how slowly I paint.

Someone else might want to paint 10-30 Greek hopilites a month another going for a small skirmish game like infinity may sent themselves a goal of 1-2 models a month as a playable infinity force is only 6-12 ish models.

I'm in.  I'm just about to start the Hittite contingent of my "Biblical" army.

We'll see.

I haven't painted anything in over a year now.  :?

I'm pretty hyped about (hopefully) receiving my All is Quiet on the Martian Front KS stuff and I have received a butt load of Blue Moon 15mm Colonials, of which I actually have the first unit (24 minis) primed.

So if I can get my brush in gear, I will attempt to do a 15mm British VSF/Colonial army.

Yep, I'm in. Vikings for SAGA. An August start will give me plenty of time to finish my last commission, and get focused on my own toys.

Already a change in plans!  ::)
My last commission just turned into my second-to-last, so I have a new project, 68 Arthurians for a fellow who is paying me actual $$, so no failure will be tolerated! The fellow is a very patient gentleman, but this will be a nice way to keep me on track, and produce real results in a timely manner.
August 1st I'll have pics up and start going.

I'm in - I should have a job lot of British WWII infantry arriving soon.  This will be my incentive to keep at them, whilst other shiny toys will have to wait their turn.

I'm pretty sure I can have my first regiment finished for August 1st.

The problem is the second...  :)

OK I'm in again. I picked up a bunch of Dark Ages figures at Enfilade I need to paint. I think it will make a good mixed British & Welsh allied army.

Everyone does their own thread. This will be the 'master thread' were we gripe about whatever gets in the way of our personal goals :)

Perhaps needless to say but I've not started working on the stuff for the August 1 deadline yet :)
