Interest in Japanese I can understand; not the way most of their troops are disregarded.

ashigari can be just as colourful
taiko  is a great novel about oda nobunaga

Ithoriel's list looks a lot like mine, but thankfully I'm far too ashamed of my unpainted mountain to actually type it out. Well to tell the truth it'd probably have me feeling like wrist slitting if I actually did list it. But and I will say this with a ringing note of conviction in my voice "No New Projects in 2014!!!". (Thankfully the Dropzone Commander and Flames of War starter boxes are Chrismas pressies, so dont count)  ;) ;)

One of my cats has  Nobunaga as his second name. There have also been a Yoshitsune, a Benkei, a Shingen, a Gozen, and an Onoe no Komachi. The youngest kitten has as yet not got a Japanese name, but until the poor dear's out of hospital, I'm holding off on the nomenclature.

Fortunately, they all answer to "Pookie Paws".

My main 10mm projects are as follows some only at the research stage but the two I would like to get finished in 2014 are AZW and CGW

1 Ceasars Galic War. I bought a small celtic/galic army of evilbay but need to add to it
2 French & Indian War. Research stage
3 American War of Independence.  Research stage
4 American Civil War. Have painted quite a few regiments but got side tracked
5 American Civil War. 1/600 Naval I bought a load of evilbay
6 World War I. Gave up on this project due to being unhappy with rules
7 World War I I.  I have loads of Russians and Germans but may add a few small units

take care

other than 10mm, I will be continuting to work on my 6mm Napoleonics and hoping to finish of the British and Austrians, get some French Guard done and possibly adding to my miserably small contingent of Russians

the lead pile has diminished quite considerably this year, but still on the list are

15mm Polish-Lithuanian or BFaS
15mm WWII EW Soviets...I'm ashamed to say that I've just ordered 5 Zvezda T35s!
15mm WWII EW Germans
15mm ACW several hundred already done....just a few more....Honest!

10mm Tudor English
10mm WSS Allies, this one is turning into the 12 labours of Hercules as I keep moving these down the painting list!!
10mm WWII EW Germans, haven't even bought these yet....just planning!

regards and Happy Christmas to you all !

I've got 4 big armies that really aren't making much progress on the painting front

Lizardmen
League of Augsberg
Late Romans
Orcs and Goblins

I also have a few ongoing armies that always need a few more units painting
Araby
Empire
and to a less extent High Elves

Then there is WWI, which I don't have too much to paint (yet!)

Then these is new stuff
Mongols
WWI (see above)
something else that catches my eye...


The first 4 on this list are now getting a bit old - I really should get a move on with the lizardmen as I painted up some of the figures as Salamanders for my forces of Nature army, and they painted up quickly and look really good. This is also the army that is most likely to get played.

Why does everyone want to do samurai? They were about 5% of most Momoyama Japanese armies.

Samurai, in my case, is a shorthand that covers the whole gamut of Japanese armies of the Sengoku Jidai. So much easier to type "Samurai" than "Samurai, Ronin, Sohei, Ashigaru, Peasants, Bandits, Ikko-Ikki, ships, guns, castles, monasteries .... etc., etc." :)

Sometimes it's good to be reminded!

Unless it's the wife. REminding you of stuff. You know, like, did you feed the dog, put out the trash, where is the kid?

That's right, you forget to pick up the little guy one time at school and she rubs it in everytime ...
