Army Painters 2014
« on: 13 June 2014, 01:10:56 AM »
Any interest in doing another 'Army Painter' challenge this year?

I'm going to, even if no one else does. I was pretty happy with the impetus to produce (and the outcome) last year.

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

I'd propose it stays the same- in that it isn't a competition, no records are kept, we paint a unit of roughly 10-30 figures each month, and post them on or around the first day for sixth months, August 2014 to January 2015. Each person maintains their own thread and labels it starting with '(Army Painters)'.

I'm going for Darkest Africa Belgians, Darkest Africa Azande, DA Pygmies, DA Ngoni, or my Hinterland hussarettes backlog. Any suggestions will be appreciated :)

Who's with me???

At the moment my health prevents me from cranking out anything with any degree of consistency other wise I would love to join in. Will happily be following along with the threads of others though.

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.

My inspiration, which I have shamelessly worshipped for years:

And no, I didn't finish last time, and I'm ok with that! ;)

I am in. Although I do not have an army I need to paint, but I have a horde of zombies and various other random bits and my painting has stalled these past few weeks. So this might give me the kick I need to get back paintin'

Low pressure, folks :)

I think if a person wanted their 'army' to be a single 54mm gladiator per month, or a few survivors, that would be just fine. The fewer 'rules' the better!!!

I'm targeting August 1 for my first entry.

In that case sure I'll join. Should be a push to get a few samurai done a month.
