Finish painting my 2500 of GK and 2500 of BA by the first weekend of November... so my goal is summer/fall. Once those are done I have a free pass to start another army. I don't have any tournies to go to until Neoncon in November so I hope to have 4 fully painted armies to pick from for that event (my Black Legion and Daemons are already fully painted).

I want to finish painting my IG army (only tanks left, how I hate painting them! ) and start painting my Chaos Daemons.

Also I need to start basing my Italian Bersaglieri for FoW, bunches of painted models on black bases doesn't look too great. Anyone know a good tutorial for desert basing for FoW?

And lastly I need to work on more terrain.

Well, I've done the middle one now - though I'm glad I didn't say compete, as I'm fairly sure a 0-5 record isn't competing

Second objective should be finished next (July 17th).

What're we defining as "the end of the summer", by the way?

Goal 2 is now complete - while not as busy as we hoped, the venue worked well, and (most of) the traders and people putting on games enjoyed themselves. The day was made even better by me being able to get a game of Ankh-Morpork in 2-3 months before release

As for the other goals? Well, I've got five figures on my painting tray which I intend to finish before the end of Friday, which will take me to 84 finished figures, and allow me to cross the weapons team off goal 4. I've based Dr Arkadius (the other Thornfall warlock), so he is now ready for undercoating. The general infantry I need for the IG platoon is attached to bases, though I've not finished basing them yet - hope to manage that tonight or tomorrow.Still need to figure out what I'm going to put in the PCS, though - they may end up with two lasgun troops and a mortar team. Finally, I still need to pick up a second Tallarn autocannon off eBay, and base it and the first one I've got.

Just a little bit of work to do, then...

If I'm really motivated, maybe start my second tactical squad so I can actually field a legal DA list.

I like to imagine the Emperor kills so many Orks that he ends up half buried beneath a pile of corpses, with only his head sticking out. A lone grot stumbles across him, and starts choking him.

Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space.

Having a bit of a problem staying on track with my goals. After moving to a new area I have yet to even get my stuff out, I need to track down some gamers around here.

I would like to finish an Ork Trukk and a Warboss so I can finally have fieldable, painted army. I would also like to finish my Troolblood and Khador battleboxes and learn to play Warmachine/Hordes. Modest goals but still difficult.

When is the official last day of summer, I will let you folk know how I did. I need some motivation bad. Been in a real painting funk lately.

Finish my 40K Iron Warriors to "GT Standard" 1750. Which after the squad I'm presently working on, will be completed approximately 1 month ahead of time! So I will augment my current goal to:

Finish my 40K Iron Warriors to "GT Standard plus nice detail work."

Basically i'm going to start finally painted helmet eye lenses and glass work. I've always refused to do this in the past, but its about time. I might actually drill out all the bolt guns to.
