Cheers as ever for running this thread @lawnor

So, I’m going to set the simplest initial goal possible: Paint 1 model. Anything. Something. It’s been a solid two and a half years since I’ve been able to put paint to mini and I’ve struggled to improve access to my painting area since my back surgeries.  I have  models built – hell, I have whole armies assembled and ready to go – just need to take that next step. Other goals? Well:

1. Continue with my adventures in Gunpla building – I need to try out adding some basic panel lining and with more Entry Grade kits on the way might take a stab at doing some custom paint jobs.
2. Paint up one of the following that’s in the build queue – a Necomunda gang, Warcry warband, Underworlds warband or a Killteam.
3. Battlemechs. So. Many. Battlemechs.
4. I dipped into Warlords Commandos army deal and their pre-order bundle for Island Assault, so might be good to actually build and paint one or the other.
5. Tanith 1st – I still have a load of models from Victoria Miniatures 2020 Black Friday sale intended for a Gaunt’s Ghosts force. Really need to get that off the ground. Have a few good STLs for Ghosts as well to get printed….
6. Infinity – got a few forces to build & paint, would be good to get one of those done up. O-12 in comic Megacity Judges colours maybe?
7. So many boardgames with unpainted minis- Incursion, Core Space, Conan, Siege of the Citadel, Mythic Battles, Giga-Robo – maybe try to paint one of those up??
8. And just get out and play something, which has proven a challenge as well since my surgeries, then 2020 happened >_<

And I’ll add a sweetner – if i can get through say three of these goals? treat myself to a 3d printer setup, and maybe an airbrush….
