...I nearly ended up calling this thread "A Tale of Many Painters Gaming Challenge", but I suspect that to be a very different beast.

Following the two rather successful threads which were spearheaded by Azazelx in 2016, I'm stepping into the breach to give him a breack, and to run the one for the first half of 2017.

What are we trying to achieve here? Well, the point, once again is to go beyond the usual "painting goals for 20xx" that many of us - including myself - typically and set up a voluntary painting challenge for a bunch of us to participate in. The point being to help focus at least some of our efforts on projects that we want to finish. With that in mind, there's no "defined" project that we all work on like Zombies or Board Games or 40k armies. We'll each set our own goal.

Criteria:

The criteria is simple. We each choose a "thing" or perhaps a couple of things to work on that can last us for approximately 6 months of painting - from January to June. That thing could be:

A specific army for any "large" system.
i.e.: Space Marines, Ogres, Orcs/Orks/Orx/Orruks, Romans, Samurai, a fleet for Halo or Dystopian Wars - or even a fleet for X-Wing if you're repainting.

A warband/team for a smaller system. (and perhaps a backup since these often tend to cap out at 16-40 models)
i.e: SAGA Normans followed by Vikings. Bloodbowl Orcs followed by Elves. A Frostgrave or Mordheim Gang followed by a different gang or even a bunch of random encounter miniatures. (Ice Spiders and shizzle)

A bunch of stuff for a specific game.
i.e.: Deathwatch: Overkill, or The Dungeon Saga box (with or without expansions) or Space Hulk or Descent or Wrath of Ashardalon or "All the Zombies in Zombicide" or "the entire Box of Zombicide" or "all of the things I own for Zombicide" or even "anything I own relating even vaguely to zombies" or "My Warhammer Quest Silver Tower Box that I just picked up." – similarly, “D&D Monsters and PCs for my campaign.” Is just as valid as “The contents of Descent 2.0.”

It could even be scenery - If you're making, say, an urban or desert, etc table and have enough stuff to paint over 6 months in discrete and meaningful chunks.

Heck, if you know you're going to jump about from system to system, or game to game, over the six month period, that's fine too - you're just working on a variety pack of selections, as long as each satisfies the month-to-month criteria below.

Month to Month:

Each month, participants will complete a "unit" for their chosen army/game. Complete is the key word here. You might have a unit just missing it’s standard bearer and/or leader. Paint that one or two figures – it completes the unit – that counts! You might have a couple of random painted zombies sitting around and add a few more to make them into a legal unit for your game of choice – that counts!
You can nominate it at the start or procrastinate for 3 1/2 weeks and nominate it when you're showing your "finished" pictures. There’s no requirement to show “before” photos, because as stated – the point is to finish stuff. A model might have just needed the final touch-ups for 2 months or 2 years – if this challenge helps you get that sucker done, then it’s done it’s work.

A "unit" should be theoretically legal - or at least thematically close to it
- we don't care if your Devastator Squad has only three heavy weapons, or if a guy has melta-bombs for some reason, or if only half of the Lizardmen have 2-handed weapons.

A "unit" that is “rank and file” should be at least 3 models. No upper limit
- if you wanna do 60 goblins, we're not gonna hold you back! Then again, if 10 goblins or zombies is enough for you in a month, that's cool as well.

A "unit" for a boardgame is something that you decide makes thematic sense.
- 10 Zombicide runners? Sure. 6 Fatties? Sure. A trio of Ravenloft monsters? Sure.

A "unit" can be a hero model, or a hero model with his retinue, or a monster, or a war machine.
- Marneus Calgar with or without his little gang? Sure for both. Gob-Lobber? Sure. Dragon? Sure? Army Standard Bearer? Sure. Chariot? Sure. Necromancer? Sure.

If you finish your unit, can you start another one as a stretch goal for that month? You sure bloody can!
- Especially encouraged if your unit was a smaller number or a simpler hero model. But hey, gak happens in life - as I certainly know - so there's certainly no recriminations if you get one, or three or none models painted in a given month. Having said that, if you’re probably not going to participate at all, then maybe hold off on the signup.

If you finish your entire project - particularly something like a boardgame
- you can choose to chill and take a well-deserved break - or continue by painting some similar/associated models. Like more Genestealers or Terminators or Zombies or D&D Monsters.


Very Important Stuff – to reiterate:

IT DOES NOT MATTER if you've already started the army/force/project/whatever.
IT DOES NOT MATTER if you've already half-painted all of the miniatures.
IT ONLY MATTERS that you're prompted to do some painting and get stuff finished.

The objective is simply to help motivate us all to complete those many unpainted models that we have, to support each other and perhaps some constructive advice or good-natured ribbing.
It also doesn't matter if you do a unit for this project each month and then fritter the rest of your time away on completely unrelated and random models.

If you'd like to participate, just add a post here stating what game/system/army/etc you want to focus on. If you'd like to nominate your first month's target, then feel free to do so. I'll update this post over the next few days while people rejoin, join and work out what we're going to spend time painting. Please don't just post on a lark, though - it's obviously better to have people on board for the duration rather than signing up and then never being seen again. Based on that, I reserve the right to allow late entries, remove non-participants and vet participants, etc.

I took part in the last one and it helped to keep me on track, even if it was just one model in some months! So sign me up again please.

I tend to have about a 3 month limit on any one project, so it's difficult to predict exactly what I will stick to, but for sure (because they are already prepped) it will start with Lord of the Rings Dwarfs. A whole force is achievable in six months, but it's more likely to be complemented by some steampunk skirmish figures and maybe some Blood Rage stuff. Maybe other Lord of the Rings forces too. My aim is to get about an average of a dozen figures per month, from whatever system.

hi...so I'm an indecisive git, I'm currently working on 3...4? armies for 40k (Orks, Nurgle CSM/Daemons, 30k/40k Salamanders)...I have probably got about 6 years worth of stuff to paint all up, let alone 6 months worth

...could I just say my goal is to "get a decent amount of stuff done for any/all of my armies"?...or would it be more in the spirit of things to say, set myself some sort of specific goal for one of those armies over the next 6 months?...or maybe switch around between armies each month?

I did read the OP, and I have a vague idea...but, still, I'm new to this thing, so I'm not really sure how things generally go here

I managed a unit (or more) every month under Azazelx so am happy to have another go around. Will be continuing with my Alpha Legion (which should take me the 6 months) along with anything random that may crop up.

Looking forward to what everyone else comes up with.

I'd like to sign up again although I think it'll be for Reapers Cav for this 6 months I've got most of the first kickstarter to paint and all of the second still to arrive. So it'll be for 3 or 4 CAV a month I feel.

He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour.

Morning ZoBo - I'm quite relaxed about this sort of thing. The aim of the Challenge isn't to tie you down to a specific project, but to get you painting in general. If that means that in January you want to work on a mob of Orks, in February a couple of Salamanders characters and in March a Nurgle Rhino, then I have absolutely no problem with that.

I've put you, myself and a couple of others down under the "variety pack" heading for that very reason.

@Archer - Not a problem, Archer - I used to run a similar thing on the Privateer Press forums for three-and-a-bit years, and this is nowhere near as in-depth as that one was. I'm not tracking points costs or eliminations here, for a start

Firstly I'd like to thank Dysartes for taking up the reigns of the Monthly Painting Challenge. Much appreciated, mate.

At this point I'm pretty burnt out on Undead, and long-burnt out on Gondor. The beauty of this thing is that it works well for keeping focus on getting a coherent army done, but after 12 months of this now, focus isn't my strong suit right now.

So I'm going to go fast and loose:

2 Units per month (might just be a hero model) from any of the following:

Gorechosen Boxed Game
Warhammer Quest: Silver Tower Boxed Game
Deathwatch: Overkill Boxed Game

Or any of the armies or forces that I have on the go from 40k/KoW/AoS/SAGA/etc.

For now my theme will be superheroes.

For Jan I would like to finish the avengers box set that's been sitting unfinished for most of last year.

Hey, welcome back. I look forward to seeing more of your Avengers.

Also, I suppose I should announce my initial pledge: finish the orcs I got way back in the first Kings of War KS.

This sounds like an excellent way for me to stay motivated going into my second year of the hobby (40k). My primary goal is chaos undivided with a smattering of side projects depending on what stand alone games GW releases.

I have Tau, Deathwatch, some assorted 40k Space Marines that I'll probably end up doing as Iron Hands, and a massive amount of Imperial Guard to chip away at. So, yeah, another "variety pack" here.

I'll sign up. I'm about to change job to one involving less travelling.

1000 points of Algoryn for Gates of Antares.
1000 points of Carcharadons for 40k.
200 points of Thousand Sons for 40k Kill Team.
DC/Marvel Superheroes (try and do at least one a month to build up factions and teams).

I think I'll chip in with my Guard: not terribly sure what direction I'll be taking but it's looking like a mech vet list with LRBTs and Basilisks (all converted tanks). Tank/infantry squad per month?

This is, emphatically, why I will continue suggesting nuking Guard and starting over again. It's a legacy army that needs to be rebooted with a new focal point.

Confirmation of why no-one should listen to Kanluwen when it comes to the IG - he doesn't want the IG, he want's Kan's New Model Army...
