1) Buy a few more things for my Eldar (i say a few... its quite alot for what i'm aiming for) culminating in a titan
2) Paint recently purchased Eldar
3) Paint previously owned Eldar
4) Go over my parents, pick up my SM, CSM and nids...
5) Fix up, re-paint and sell the nids!
6) Convert the SM and CSM into a force that can used as CSM or SM, not sure which but i'll most likely need the spare bodies either way (and if i go for chaos, a bag of spikey bits to lavish onto everything)

Happy Christmas one and all...
I'm hoping to:
- Sculpt some decent female IG
- Finish my Realm of Battle board and various terrain pieces
- Buy and paint 500 points each of the main 40K races. I've got several friends who are interested in 40K, this would give them a chance to try out a few armies before committing themselves.
- Straighten out the garage (which is where most of my hobby stuff happens)

1. Finish off my display board and objective markers for my Pretty Marines.
2. Build and paint my new DE models for my army. And do a total touch-up on the old, fixing wear from play.
3. Finish off my Menoth. Expand to 50 points or so if I can get people playing. (Hoping to drag some Warhammer people into it by playing it at the same time on game days. And very excitedly talking about throwing around 'Jacks and such)
4. Finish painting my girlfriends Orks.
5. Make lots of terrain. FLGS closing this month, games are now in my garage, need some stuff to work with.
6. Avoid buying much of anything. No more FLGS to support, and I'm for once in a long time very content with my armies. Dark Eldar and Deathwing for 40k. Tomb Kings for WHFB. And Menoth for Warmahordes.

Merry Christmas, all!
My projects for this coming year are as follows, in order of importance from most pressing to least (except for the last one).
(1) Finish my Lizardmen for Dakkacon and get some games in beforehand! They're all built, primed, and ready to go, so all I need is to finish painting.
(2) Finish painting my Orks, and add in the last few units I need to really get it up to 2000 pts proper after they're painted. Also finish painting and building/customizing my Stompa.
(3) Hopefully get to work finishing building my Grey Knights, although to be honest, I'm debating selling them off/trading them... depends on what the new Codex looks like. I'll probably wind up keeping them because I'm a packrat, but eh, who knows...
(4) MAYBE start a WoC army for Fantasy. Only after everything else is built/painted and I decide what I'm gonna do with the Grey Knights - if I keep them then this is just gonna remain on the back burner, but if I get rid of them I'll be trading them for some WoC stuff, probably Tzeentch-heavy. Always loved Tzeentch the most.
And the most important thing of them all, which is more important then all of the above - actually get more games in! Probably my biggest flaw right now is that I don't play anywhere near as much as I should. I intend to fix that this year!

It's complicated."
Da Goldtoof Marauders - 2000 pts, The Sacred Host of Kai'Xili (Lizardmen) - 500 pts

Well, most of my projects involve tournaments in some way, as I enjoy those as much as gaming at stores. 2011 will hopefully see me:
-Complete a battlewagon with deffrolla [I wanted a 2nd anyway, and the first one wasn't majority GW]
-Construct a metal display board for my magnet-based Orks
-Make sure my Orkz are painted as well as they can be before Gottacon
-Decide which army to take to Astronomi-con
-Get rest of terrain for table contribution to Astronomi-con
Anyways, I wish all the Dakkaites a happy holiday, whatever holiday it may be.

My Forces:
DA Consecrators- 2000 points' worth, currently shelved
Imperial Guard - about 2000 points' worth, soon to be expanded
Christmas Orks - 1750 points' worth |

Jeebers! Suddenly my list doesn't look too tough...
1. Finish all of my unfinished Cadians and update my blog.
2. Add two Vendettas, two Hydras, and two Manticores
3. Add an Imperial Superheavy or two for Apocalypse games
The big hurdle to get over is the pile of Cadian melta and plasma gunners that need paint. The models are OK but 21 of them is a bit daunting...and monotonous.

The secret to painting a really big army is to keep at it. You can't reach your destination if you never take any steps.
I build IG...lots and lots of IG. |

I need to finish magnetizing and painting my eldar.
I bought a bunch of tau from a friend and over the years they'd been bought from other people. It's a lot of points but it's painted in multiple color schemes, so I'd like them all to look uniform.
