Goals update 2011 - Weeks 2 & 3

For every yin there is a yang..

So much for the accomplishments of the first week. For the last two weeks, my time has been mostly spent being sick. So, unfortunately, I didn't get as much done as I wanted to, but I still managed to get a little hobby time in and I built and cleaned five Nobz for my 40K Orks.

Were iz da rest uv us?!
And, I finished one of my Houseguard Riflemen for my Retribution Force, bringing my total of painted Iosans to four.

This is my BOOMSTICK!!
I know it seems like I'm being a little random with my painting (what? me? random?) but actually there's method to my madness. The only reason I haven't finished the other four Battle Mages yet is because they need to be stripped of their test paint jobs. Probably won't re-prime them 'til the spring so I had to move on to something else. I picked a Rifleman to start with and now that I have the 'what color goes where' part of the process, the other Riflemen will go fast. I started base-coating the next three last night, but I can only "assembly line" paint so many minis at a time otherwise I get bored and frustrated.

Hopefully this weekend I give an update for this current week (week 4) that will see me back to the output that I had when I started the year.

Until next time,
-Jack

Hey at least your getting stuff done which is good. I on the other hand am not!

Looking forward to see what you have done completely for the month come week 4...

Keep it up!

If you stopped repainting your minis you might finish a force someday. Seriously, have you ever finished an army? I'm a gaming magpie too, but my grenadiers are nearing completion.

@RTGamer- Come on man, you're keeping me going! I need to see those 365 guys done this year. If you can do it, I can make my goals too.

@Dan- You, sir, can kiss my ass.

Dan's a buddy not a troll (well most of the time anyway) but the sad part is, everything he said is true... and no, I haven't. Ever. But that's going to change this year. I've already done more in 3 weeks than I did in all of last year. The trick is keeping it up.
