    Hello boys and girls and welcome to Let's Get Motivated - May 2023

    This thread is too get us motivated each month into finishing projects that we have on the go, the rules are fairly simple.

    At the start of the month post what you intend to try and finish this month, it can be models/terrain/conversions of any game type. No pressure if you don't finish anything this is for motivation nothing else.

    Around the middle of the month post your progress, no images please, if you have want to share your progress with images, upload them into your blog and supply a link.

    Around the end of the month post your progress, again no images, if you have finished a piece upload the images into your blog and supply a link.

    The reason I don't want images in this thread is too get everyone that takes part views in their personal blog where the community can critique, etc.

    You don't have a paint blog? well get one started in this forum section.

    If you need advice etc. post here and the community will try and answer.

    I'm looking forward to seeing everyone share their progress

    Grrr, !mrahil

    Everything else is bonus added during month :)

    Well, here's my belated list for the month.

    Plan is to firstly finish of Velmorn's lot whilst slowly building through the Looncourt, then work on some of my backlog models of the month (Swamp Cultist, Lantern Lumineth Aelf, and Salamaders Primaris assault guy), before focussing on the single/character models, and finally hopefully having the time for the Gnarlspirits.

    Assemble:
    1 Perry Minis Prussian Hussar -
    1 Model of the Month –
    1 Repentia Superior – Completed!
    Grinkrak’s Looncourt – Four Completed!
    1 Sororitas Rhino -

    Paint:
    The rest of Sons of Velmorn Warband - One Completed!
    4 Models of the Month -
    1 Repentia Superior –
    1 Astral Templars Vindicator -
    1 Cado Ezachiar the Hollow King –
    Gnarlspirit Pack -

    Base:
    5 Models of the Month –
    The rest of Sons of Velmorn Warband – One Completed!
    Gnarlspirit Pack -
    1 Cado Ezachiar the Hollow King –
