If that is the sort of results and progress you get when "lost" I wouldn't worry too much about being "lost" ;)

The problem is getting yourself to start painting when you have no direction. I find it harder to do something if i don't have a specific goal!

Good work, what goal are you after? What are the possibilities?

Really don't know. There's nothing 'urgent' for the moment.

Usually i have at least something that NEEDS to be done. I'm a bit inbetween gaming for the moment so nothing to get ready for  game.

Hey all,

Think i have found 'the problem'. A change in scale was needed to get me going!

started painting some 10 mm punic wars minis yesterday and already have 4 units finished:

numidian light cavalry and a chief:





the chiefs cloak






adding 17 to the model count: 39 models finished

Got 16 velites and 30+ iberian auxiliaries part finished as well, hope to get these done by the end of the week!

Maybe that would be a nice goal for this year, finish my punic wars minis!

Not making any progress lately. Too busy playing on the new laptop. Should really kick myself into action!

On the other hand, haven't bought any new stuff since i got the new laptop so i'm not getting behind on painting work either  ;D.

Have a day off from work, so ideal to finally get some painting done!

2 units of iberian auxiliaries, for the punic wars.





carthaginian army is starting to form up!


The romans are limited to 2 units of slingers and velites each  ;D

However, i have run out of skirmisher/warband/light units so from now on it's massed cavalry and formed infantry. Pretty sure the romans will catch up there!



AND finally adding 32 to the model count: 87models finished
