Ok, so how are we all doing? I’m on my fourth first coffee of the day so feeling pretty good 🙂

@rastamann welcome! Some lovey terrain in the KT starter – are you going to be using the tutorial @johnlyins as a guide or do you have something else in mind? Did you keep it reasonably modular/reconfigurable or are you going for  a more permanent configuration with a few larger pieces? Black Scorpion do sole lovely minis – can see why you’d be looking forward to getting started on those. 30 points.

@horati0nosebl0wer recharging the batteries and hanging out with people socially sounds like an awesome pledge 🙂 GL with the YT basing thing 🙂 yeah that’s about the point at which the painting anxiety starts to kick in for me too. I’ve sort of managed to get around it by telling myself I’m only aiming for tabletop standard and I can always come back and revisit the paint job later (which i do actually get around to doing sometimes…). Mmm going to have to come back to some of those tunes later – been listening to metalstep most of the day and my brain is a little singed… Only watched the first episode of the Kingdom – it’s worth pushing on with then? 50 points.

@robert nice pledge – are they for Saga or are you looking to do something else with the range? Yeah I’m loving seeing what the community can do with the SWL models but I think I’m probably too busy with fantasy and historicals presently to seriously consider it. Which is a shame as they would be fun tables to build terrain for 🙂 i find myself srt of project managing myself with small goals in a similar manner, which works OK until I start overstepping on the painting and know that I really should stop, but if I fall behind on my schedule it makes it harder to catch up – not sure if having a plan makes it better or worse now that I think about it… 40 points.

@mage best of luck on the pledge – the Minotaurs are coming along nicely. was initially concerned that the scheme might look a little too close to an AdMech pattern but that hasn’t happened – the red is coming along nicely and looks really distinctive. really like the D&D mini range – a bit of a shame they are just too small to fit with heroic 28mm ranges otherwise my armies would have a bunch of them for characters. Great for monsters and livestock etc though 🙂 40 points

@sundancer yeah I’ve got to confess it was a little unnerving watching a squadron of 8 Tie fighters bearing down on me… Any one project in particular stand out? Or do they all sort of merge together? Heh, procrastination is great like that – my house is always really clean and tidy when I’m avoiding doing something 🙂 30 points
