Hi all

Its that time again
Last months update

TMP link

Well August was a good month – Work calmed down a bit so I got a couple of holiday days in and managed to pick up the paint brush and was productive. Of course EBAY had some bargains so picked up a couple of extra Tanks for my WWII stuff.


Bought
28mm = 2 Panzer II's (built and undercoated today!!!!

Painted
6mm = 192 (mahdist infantry)
28mm = 26

Monthly total = +216
2541(end of year target =1519 so only 1000+ to go)

Plan
1) Start some 6mm Cavalry (I hate painting cavalry)
2) Continue my 28mm WWII stuff
3) Behave myself next week at the PARTIZAN show

MH
:-)

Didn't do much this month. Too bad, since last month I bought a WWII 15mm Romanian army that's sitting there unpainted, and put me deep in the hole. I can recover, if only I can resist the shiny stuff for few months and pick up the brush.

Bought: 0
Painted: 32 Macedonian Agema Pikes, 15mm
End: -242 for the year.

September is going to be a weird month because with the winter coming, I'm in "prep/prime" mode in September. Get as many minis primed and ready to paint. I probably won't get much more done in Sept than I did in August.

I know all those Ral Partha Chaos Wars minis from the Kickstarter (~140) are coming soon too… and those lovely 25mm figures won't paint up as fast as the 15mm's. So, I'll keep painting!

Strangely enough, I didn't buy anything this month. Maybe I can keep that up for a few more. Managed to finish another 36 of my Dacian horde.

In 10mm ACW painted 65 figures 2 supply wagons and 2 ambulances. Bought 0. That puts me plus 144 figures painted over what I have bought for the year. A huge led pile is going along way in keeping me ahead this year.

I've completely bungled this…I lost count of purchases vs painted…and it will take way too much time to sort it out, so I will try again next year….
