Like a lot of gamers I read many blogs. I've linked a few at the bottom of the page, and I really should update that with some more.
One thing a lot of painter/bloggers do is keep a record of their painting compared to their purchases, often as part of some form of challenge.
I'm not quite organised enough to set myself a challenge, but I thought if I keep a record of my achievements it might motivate me to post more often and to get more stuff finished. I'm much better at starting a project than finishing one.
I'll get onto this more seriously next year, but as a bit of practice, I'll begin with November. See how I cunningly begin just after receiving a box of Frostgrave Ghost Archipelago stuff?
Only 'purchase' so far this month is a swap with someone on the Mantic Swaps and Sales Facebook group; I got a metal version of The Survivor mercenary for Deadzone. He looks a fun and straight forward job, so I'll get him stripped (oo-er) and might even start painting him in between various warband stuff.
So here goes; current totals
Bought 1
Painted 0
Sold/traded 0
One thing that does occur to me. How shall I log the various modelling projects?
Documenting my hobby; painting modelling and playing fantasy roleplaying and tabletop games.
