...... @Imrahil this feels like some ploy to get me to commit to finishing projects.... I like it! Also, thanks for the shout out for my story So! My goals, rhat I shall try to stay focused on ... *giggles* 1. Start and possibly finish a chapter/ prologue of a story I have begun ( https://www.lustria-online.com/threads/animosity-3-the-hathorians-prologue.25867/#post-373681 / https://www.lustria-online.com/thre...he-feathered-serpent.25725/page-2#post-373722 ) 2. finish my set of Wardens 3. Start / Finish my Lumineth War Hippogryph conversion, begin painting by the end of the month. 4. Learn to paint in my sleep 5. Learn better focusing methods/better learn the discipline of finishing projects before my brain sees something new thats shiny (I started this last night by thoroughly cleaning my hobby area of my loose bits and juat having bits that are needed for currrent projects). 6. Read at least 1 LO members story (a month)

Late to the party this month, but my hobby area is all set up in my new home and I’m ready to roll. My goal for the rest of the month is to finish my bastiladon solar engine, namely the crystal and skink riders.
Late start this month, but I want to -finish building an oracle on trog -build the new kroak -prime oracle, kroak, 20 chainrasps, 20 bladegeists, Lady olynder, reikenor, and a dreadblade harrow -finish 20 chainrasps I already have partially painted
Small update My skinks are coming well i just need to acquire a very thin brush for smaller details I decided a of change plans (suprise I know) for troglodon, as i may get another carnosaur wich will give me a replacement head. (I only have the broken head and my first carno was bougth used since it was cheap and the paintjob only needs few corrections) Instead i'll start assembleing the drakespawn knights for my saurus knights conversion
Changes in plans always happen! I had little intent on starting a whole 6ft board, but now I'm almost done lol
This month starts on the 23rd right? I would like to start painting my Haqqislam Army, so for this month - 3 Ghulam (basic units) - Start a painting blog in this forum. I will update in the middle of the month, which means on Friday
4 is still a work in progress, much like my models. Although, my sleep pattern may indicte that i am getting closer as sleep occurs less and less! 5... well.... we'll see how this thread goes haha
Update: 1. I have begun working on my prologue again for the Animosity III Campaign coming up for my Hathorians & Lumineth, though its not finished. I have not begun the second chapter for my Seraphon story, but i do have parts if it mapped out in my head. 2. Wardens are coming along, 3 of them should be finished soon. 3. Have begun painting the Hippogryph (pics in my paint blog) and coming along nicely. 4. No true movement on this one, although, sleep eludes me... so perhaps i am indeed moving forward? 5. I'm not sure, we'll see at the end of the month 6. I haven't read a story yet, though i have a few i am planning to. Have been checking paint blogs though! All in all definitely moving forward with my goals Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying their hobby time
A final update on this month's hobby goals. And I can say I did well - Play a game of Middle Earth SBG Battle Companies - Build another house with a thatched roof - Reading some more stories of LO members, I read the first Act of @Sudsinabucket 's story I urge you to do the same. Also I am currently into the third chapter of @Aginor 's The First and the Last, an amazing story that is so well written. Please check it out. perhaps also - Paint the new build house Grrr, Imrahil
Goals for the month were: Paint and base 1-2 Character models (Either Count Dooku, Cad Bane or Padme Amidala). - DONE. Painted up Dooku and Cad Bane, I've also made a decent start on Padme. Paint and base my Phase 1 clone personnel upgrades. - DONE At least make a start on painting my Republic AT-RT. - NOT DONE. Decided to start Padme instead and have had limited time at the end of the month due to job apllications. Pretty happy with my work this month.
Finish the Chameleon Skink from Star blood stalkers All done except bases. one day ill get them finished Mendoza and MO action pack have been started and im working through the base colours Wait for kroak and SBGL: Vampire lord Built and ready to prime
Done! I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, EXCEPT for the fact that one of the skink arms slipped out of place while it was drying. It looks terrible, and I'm not sure what I can do to fix it, but at least it's not too noticeable if you're not looking for it.
Alright the month is over and I would like to announce that I finally succeeded with my resolutions. The skinks(for now) are finished I will only need to paint some bits like claws, teet and red crests on my alphas but that's for future me to worry about, as far as im concerned they are battle ready. For my cold ones I shaved and cut off some bits for future modifications.(BONUS: only stabbed myself once so that's a win for me)
Well... I finished the BODY of the Hierotitan... Just need to confront doing the basing. Didn't start another project. I finished my short story (novel) and posted it. Now need to do a short story for the competition.
I didn't get to prime anything and certainly didn't get any more paint on my chainrasps. But I did build kroak and an oracle on trog. Kroak took ages, so many moldlines but he's done and ready for paint
