I haven’t got a massive pledge really just a very general one.

It’s simply to paint and build what I have. Over the years I’ve amassed a huger collection of minis that have remained untouched. I’ll be happy if this year I just start building and painting anything from the collection. My aim is to pull random minis out of my collection and just get them done regardless of paintjob and build quality. I think over the years I’ve stopped myself for some reason, perhaps I’ve not thought my painting was good enough for the model or something, or maybe it’s a slight depression I’ve pushed down but now I think the time has come to really tackle the pile.

I suppose in an ideal world I’d like to do the following list at the very least alongside tackling the pile generally:

1. Get at least one FoW army fully painted. More than likely Germans but I’ve got US I could do as well.

2. Get at least 2 BA armies fully built and painted, probably the Fall of Berlin army I’ve already got the minis for and the LRDG project which I’ve got a handful of minis for already as well but will need more purchases to finish.

3. Get another LOTR army built and painted. I want to do an Ent army and with the new models coming out this year it seems a perfect time to do a small model count army. I’ve already got three Ents in preparation, 1 plastic and 2 metal. If i get those done I’ll allow myself to buy the new Quickbeam and Treebeard when they come out.

4. I’ve a sizeable Legion collection unbuilt and unpainted. I’d like to get at least one army fully painted. More than likely Empire but I’d be stoked to also get my Rebels done as well.
