Okay, I planned on posting this yesterday, marking it perfect for a week-til-you-know-what, but I was very busy. This got me thinking, wondering if I was the only one out there working busier than a bunch of Santa's Elves. Between all the projects I have going, art, presents, gifts, and so on, I am working twenty four seven on all this. It is the season of giving, so I can't have an excuse not to be doing this, and you know, I love winter, so why not?
So, post what you plan to be working on for the Week 'til Christmas.
I have the following Projects being juggled:
-Dark Elf blood bowl team for Mom
-Halfling blood bowl team for sister
-Orcland Raiders blood bowl team for dad
-Lizardmen blood bowl team for Brother
-My custom leather jacket
-Renegade Imperial Guard
-Beastman Warband
-Wood Elves for sister
-Painting for Aunt
I know this is alot going on, but it provides variety. When the painting gets boring, I can stick some glue on my fingers and assemble some models, and vice versa. Also not to mention that I will not be painting the same thing over and over again.
Good Luck and Happy Holidays everyone.

Finishing my eldest's 1000pt Necron army he's getting it as one of his prezzies this year. Thats the main focus, fortuantely mostly done.
I just need to bring up the metal on the cron's then do a couple of washes, green eye effect, then varnish, flock base and pva the rods in.
Other than that, I'm hoping to start my Pirate ship Battlewagon for the 40K doubles Tournie this week, as although it seems a way off, it'll be Feb 18th before I know it.

I feel your pain, bud.
I have a small box of Hellions and about 1/3 of a VC Fantasy army even before Christmas.

I'm hoping to base and undercoat all my Gondorians. However, I'm ill and feeling terrible right now, so how far that's going to get is anybody's guess!

Looking for fun articles on painting, tactics and wargaming? Are you after a new regular blog to follow? Are you a bit bored with nothing better to do?
If the answer to any of the above is 'well, I guess' you could probably do worse than read my blog! Regular wargaming posts, painting and discussions

For me, I'm working on a slaan for my lizardmen, instead of floating on some silly stone thing, I have the old fashioned guy that was carried by tomb guards, but I'm converting him to have his throne on top of a big and mean looking turtle. it's gonna be kind of a pain since the casting on the turtle wasn't so hot and the feets don't all line up right. Lots of greenstuffings to do.
And, I sank a little too much cash into a xmas train set that I just set up but I gotta decorate the table for the holidays and stuff for when the fam comes over, the kids can play with the train.. and I can play with it when they leave

Hello,
For me it was doing the gold on the resin kit, and finshing the resin on the board, then running the holiday party, while getting a litte done on greening up the bases near said resin.
