keeping up with the status of my projects

[petercooman]

So i decided to make a diary, in order to have an overview of my projects, and maybe see how much painting i get done 

Here's the list of things to do, and things to put on hold!

1: 10mm acw forces: yanks completely finished, rebels 8 bases to go!

2: dropzone commander/pendraken zombie crossover game:  dropships and apc's finished, infantry/zombies yet to start

3: 2mm napoleonics: basecoated and british infantry finished

4: useme WWII skirmish: british airborne finished, german infantry finished 2 nights ago, SS still to start, British army basecoated

5: deadzone: enforcers and plague finished, rebels and marauders still to do. Terrain finsihed

6: snow terrain: have a white fleece with 60+ snow covered trees, have been pondering what to buy to play on these. Winter war seems good, any    suggestions welcome!

7: epic 40k forces: on hold because no one to play with, so not bothering with painting them for now

8: micro wings: Bunch of planes finished, 5-6 kits still unopened 

9: salem church mini counter game, have it almost a year, still need to find time to play it once 



So this is my current list, hope to have some stuff finished by this time next year

Good idea Peter

I know my painting threads help keep me on track

Have you worked out how you're going to paint and base the new miniature?

You've got about 6-9 months of snoozy painting time, then, life as we know it ends!

Only painting i've done so far is white cream to the behind

My first one started walking really really early so from then on, all miniatures will be pushed two shelves upwards!!

I got the new Frostgrave rules the other day, would be perfect for snowy terrain and also seems a really good game system, go for it!

Does that work with smaller scales? Or is it more 25-28mm?

[fred.]

Frostgrave is single figure with about 4 to 10 figures in a Warband.  While you could play with single based 10s it might be a bit fiddly. What could be a good option is to use 25mm bases (eg 2p coins) and put a few figures on each base. But still treat each base as a single figure in the rules.

[petercooman]

Ok, will check it out!

Still looking for something historical though, frostgrave is fantasy no?

[fred.]

Frostgrave is very Fantasy - it's centred around wizards.

If you want something small scale fantasy look at song of blades and heroes.

Something a bit more medium sized then Saga is a possibility.

Next suggestion for your snow terrain: 10mm Pendraken, Wars of the Roses, the Battle Towton.

Someone please tell me why I always read that as Toytown??
