I hope to finish the stockpile of 6mm Napoleonic Austrian infantry (only 144 left) so that I can order more before the dollar falls too much further!

With any luck my Front Rank order will turn up so that I can start on a 28mm Etienne Gerard and his valiant hussars for my Sharp practice games also.

If Mrs Malamute allows...(and thats a big if!) then it will be finishing some VSF Prussians and making a start on some more Adobe houses for my Tex/Mex town.

Since I've met Mrs M I have a hard time believing you. She seemed to be such a classy lady.

He is very much Mellors to her Lady Chatterly.  ;)

 lol lol lol

Ahh, but you see chaps you only met Mrs Malamute in a social capacity where she was on her bestest behaviour and has obviosuly bewitched you, as she does everybody she meets with her radiant beauty ... ;)

I haven't quite decided yet, but it is going to be one of three things:

1) Halfling Blood Bowl Team;
2) 15mm not-Stargate figures; or
3) Hasslfree Kindred and Grymn squads.

Whichever one I choose, I'll pack in a little box with a minimum of paints, brushes, etc. so it can travel with me to the outlaws, where we'll be for Christmas.

As I don't put myself under any pressure with my painting - it's a hobby

I think that goes for all of us, really. My point was that around the holidays many of us get the opportunity to spend some extra time with the hobby. So rather than feeling "pressured" into painting/modelling, I'm talking about feeling "free" to do it, which not everyone gets to feel all year round.

There probably won't be time to work on much, but I'm working on Karl Lowtarhund's Most Puissant Retinue of Ogres, LLC and my Quar right now. What I really need to do is clean the hobby area.

I've got to finish up my Ice Goblin/Evil Smurf Blood Bowl Team.

To my great shame, I've been playing with half painted minis for weeks.  :(

I'm hoping to get some of my Wild West figures painted up and finish my last three scratch built buildings as I have spent the year completing all of the rest of my Western terrain including buildings, fences, cattle, wild horses, railroad tracks and train, cactus, hitching posts, etc., etc.

On the off painting time I hope to get a few of my Napoleonics filed and prepped for priming in the spring after it warms up and I can spray paint outside.
Victory is guaranteed to the last man standing, but always remember those whom you stepped on to get there!!
