Post Ayton projects

Post by goat major »

after the traditional Ayton panic its time to cleanse the palette with a new project. What are peoples emerging plans for the second 2/3 of the year ? I'm currently undecided with a number of possibles

Things i own:
Tanks for CoC/WAT
40K - complete my Death Korps army
Dragon Rampant/Oldhammer - Landschknechts,
Paint the old citadel spacefarers i bought earlier in the year for no reason
Finish the 42mm Russian shiny cavalry
Finish my 10mm AWI
Finish my kung fu scenery

Things i don't own yet:
6mm western desert possibly IABSM
6mm mid or early roman vs parthians or similar for TSS
More 42mm shinys
Start some figs for Ayton 2019 which will be multi-purposed for a France 1940 CoC force

28mm Arthurian Britons for our Dux Brit campaign
Finish off the existing tanks I have for CoC/BA/WaT
28mm Zulus

Then, depending how far down the year that gets me, either 28mm Naps or 28mm Carthaginians

I’m sure I’ll get sidetracked by something else along the way though!

I am really looking forward to getting stuck into the Arthurians. The Footsore Miniatures are truly fantastic.

6mm, 15mm and 28mm project stuff in general, plus scenery, terrain boards, sea boards and too many other things to mention.
Don't know where the time goes...

WWI middle east tugs at me like a girl in the plaza of a South American city.

Anzacs, Indian lancers, yeomanry, tanks, odd planes, what's not to like?

I’ve been on and off on that tangent for years. 15mm is the way to go I think

Well my next big thing was going to be the 20mm WSS inspired by our own Count and Essex, I did put an order in but I think the guy forgot about me so will try again after Ayton.

I’ll be continuing the SYW Russian and Austrian project as usual. I was going to start 28mm ECW but actually, it’s all these ‘side projects’ which stall you from getting anywhere, so I’m going to hold off until I have a force big enough to take on my Prussians.
Saying that, I will be doing a couple 1/1200 ships and probably best bring some shiny 19th century Prussians for Goat Shine Olympics.

Things I own;

Foundry Russian Hussar Battalion (Why in gods fuck do I keep buying Hussars!!)
That’s it really. I don’t buy much ahead.

Things I don’t own but omelette this year;

Russian Cossack Cavalry,
Prussian Dragoon Regiment
2x Russian Observation battalions.
More German support options for CoC
Start 20mm Blenheim OOB brigades...
