1. Arthurian for Dux Brittanarium/Bellorum - based and undercoated. Would aim to have these done by Christmas

Persuade me!

@-) You are feeling very sleepy  (:|

I-)

When you wake, you will have the irresistible urge to read the appropriate Bernard Cornwell novels and paint Derfel Cadarn et al   :D

Persuasive enough?  ;)

The Abyssinian horse are nearly done, guns getting there. Quite a lot of tribesmen to be done, but they're fairly simple. I'll be free to paint Aztecs soon.
I don't drink coffee to wake up. I wake up to drink coffee.

Intriguing Nik - 10mm FIW skirmish? For Muskets and Tomahawks??
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Possibly mate - not got 'em yet...before I pick them up, I'll use Brother Against Brother and/or Legends of the Old West (both with the appropriate modding)  :)

This particular project is something I've been thinking about for ages & have managed to do it from surplus figs left over from my FIW Maurice armies  8)

2 regts of Prussian Uhlans, 3 batteries of French 1870 artillery, and a reg of zouaves assembled to help with Thursday's game! I LOVE half term!

Just finished the last of the Late War German Infantry for Bolt Action, so well on track to finish that project by December 31st given there is just a Pak40 and Crew, a Hetzer and two half tracks to finish.

Photo's tommorow if we get another morning like we had here today in Sunny Suffolk!

So, (as well as finishing the Late War German project) I am going to be brave and suggest that I am going to see how far I can get with FOUR projects by December 31st as follows:

Main Project
28mm Commando's for Bolt Action - similar sized force and composition to late war krauts - make as big a dent as possible in the project!

Secondary Projects

a) 6 point 28mm Scots warband for SAGA
b) 10mm Vikings - attempt to finish by Christmas (again!)
c) Medieval Scots - break the back of these so I have decent sized ally for my French HYW

Two hours last night and two hours this morning see two more buildings finished, plus three 1870 French artillery batteries, a brigade stand of Uhlans and  a unit of Zouaves base coated and inked.
WILL be needing these on Thursday, WON'T be finished by then. Why is it in a campaign, that the units you haven't painted are always the ones your friends want to use!? ???
