Well I took a hiatus on my monthly goals, having a lot of things happen. I was going to keep to my Mechanicus army goals, but suddenly my interest has returned to Napoleonics so I'll see where this takes me.

March goals:
Paint up the 4e Hussards, possibly base them up if I place an order for cavalry bases.
Assemble and paint up the Techpriest.

Additional:
Assemble and Paint the Skitari Vanguard
Paint up some of the Polish infantry.

Good luck Job! :)

For me March's hopeful goals entails:

For Nagoya Hammer:

- 8 Eldar elites
- 35 Bolt Action Brits

Other
- 10 Assorted Bones DnD minis

A tall order I'd say. We shall see.

Speaking of tall orders, February proved too tall for me. I did nothing. I could cite general tiredness and a weekend lost to illness as contributory factors, but mainly, I just had no painting mojo in February.
My goal for March is to paint at least one mini or assemble one piece of terrain. Anything else will be a bonus.
My wife will be off to Fukui-ken for 10 weeks or more from the end of March to prepare for the spawning of the next Lovejoy. Much as I'll miss her and the young lad - I think that this rare, oh so precious time is going to be very useful for getting hobby stuff squared away.

My March goal is done, after Feb's washout. Admittedly the March goal was easy- do at least one mini, but that still counts!
Knocked out some Frostgrave minis (whilst listening to a 12 hour BBC dramatisation of Samuel Pepys diary, of all things. It's well done and pretty fascinating). A captain, a bard and a genie with his lamp. They were done in a hurry but that can't be helped these days. They'll do, the genie is a little ropey but the bard is decent and certainly my favourite of the batch. Not sure on his usefulness in game, but seemed fun to include.
I'll try to add my half done wotr minis to the finished March quota.

This month's lesson: Take into account international travel in goal-setting! :lol:

Still, here is what I got done - all the 6mm stuff in my March goal, plus two more commander bases, 2 pieces of horse artillery, and two bases of skirmishing rifles.

Next month I'll get the 28mm stuff from the March goal done. Sadly, that means I won't have a Bolt Action force of my own done for Nagoyahammer, though.
Feel free to call me Dave!

A big fat nope on March's target. This month I managed a paltry 1 orc and 1 jetbiker. I also built 3 treasure tokens, a zombie and a familiar. Not much to show for a month's work, but Other Stuff came up. I hope to finish the remaining 5 jetbikes, build and paint 2 more corsairs (which'll be an arse, because I need to make moulds and cast some parts) and paint my void singer by the end of the month.

Overall, target: woefully failed.

eh, y'know. Stuff, and things

Wow. And then Corona happened. Just....crickets, all the way through to 2023...

For April, I need to get my new BA army done. So my target is a 750 point army including a tank and a piece of artillery.

Sigh, everyone always forgets about this army. :D
It's the 14th.
