Let's Get Motivated - New Year's hobby reselutions 2021

[Imrahil]

End of year review:

- finish painting my Orruk Warclan models. This includes: Ironjawz SCB, Ironskull's warband, Orruk Megaboss.
* This goal stagnated a bit. I did finish my Ironskull's warband. For the SCB there are still two Gor-Gruntas to do and the Megaboss as well.
- finish painting my first Scenery piece
- finish building my modular Scenery building

Well, not much has changed since the last update half a year ago
I have made a lot of progress on my MESBG models and scenery. And played quite a lot of games, at least way more than in the last 10 years

Grrr, Imrahil

Here were my goals:

• Finish painting my 2k 8th edition list. (Temple Guard, Skink Priest, 2 Salamanders and herders, Saurus Cowboy). - I managed to get the priest, 1 Salamander pack, the Saurus Cowboy and 10 Temple Guard done but fell short of this goal. Going to keep chipping away at the TG in early 2022.

• Paint up enough units to get both my Clone and Droid armies to 800pts for Star Wars Legion. - This goal went very well, with both of these armies now having over 1000pts worth of painted models.

Onwards to 2022!

I'm determined to paint a 1,000 point Seraphon army this year. Here's my progress on purchased models as of today:

Finished
- 12 Saurus Warriors (90 points)
- 3 Kroxigors (140)

In progress
- 10 Saurus Knights (200)
- Saurus Oldblood on Carnosaur (230)

Not started
- 10 Skinks (60)
- 20 Saurus Warriors (180)
- 3 Terradon Riders (90)
- Bastiladon with Solar Engine (220)
- Skink Starpriest (120)

My ultimate goal is to have a 2,000 point painted army, but anything above 1,000 this year is just gravy.

Bonus goal: if my friend's Blood Bowl league gets off the ground (and if it's safe to meet in groups), I'd like to paint a team. Not sure which team to paint but leaning towards Orcs. Suggestions are welcome!

Final 2021 verdict (with points adjusted to AoS 3.0):

Finished

- 20 Saurus Warriors (210 points)
- 3 Kroxigors (150)
- 10 Skinks (75)
- 10 Saurus Knights (220)
- 3 Terradon Riders (105)
- Bastiladon with Solar Engine (250)
- Skink Starpriest (130)
- Saurus Oldblood on Carnosaur (270)

Total: 1,410 points

In progress

- Lord Kroak (430)

Not started

- 20 Skinks (75)
- 15 Saurus Guard (345)
- Stegadon (265 or 305)
- Saurus Eternity Warden (125)

I didn't get to 2,000 points even with the 3.0 points adjustment, but I still easily surpassed my minimum goal of 1,000.

Bonus goal: I painted 6 of 12 Orc Blood Bowl models. No league due to the pandemic so I'm lacking a bit of motivation to finish them, but they were kind of fun to paint so maybe it'll be a goal for early 2022.
