At the beginning of the year I boldly set out some plans for the year. I tend not to do this as it's always too depressing when I've failed to achieve anything I'd planned or been sidetracked into something off-plan.
But, since it's the end of Q1 it must be time for a retro (can you tell I've been doing too much project planning at work!!?)
On my list were 3 main projects... Arthurian armies, Ironclads and sorting out my WW2 ships. Bafflingly I've somehow actually achieved 2 out of 3 with figures painted and games played for the Arthurians and the Ironclads. Of course there's more to do with each if these so they aren't completely done (is a wargames project ever really done??) but I'm amazed that I've actually managed to get figures painted and onto the table for a game.
My painting tally tends to be incredibly slow but so far this year I have painted:
40 Late Roman Infantry
12 ACW Ironclad ships
6 1980s Laserburn miniatures.
The Laserburn figures were an unexpected find and have set me off on a new project (yeah... I was never going to stick religiously to the plan!) and a package has just arrived from Alternative Armies. More on this in a separate post...
Better some progress than none! Great Dilbert choice! Having worked in IT most of my career, I swear Scott channels my experiences.
ReplyDeleteI'm always amazed at any progress at all! I work in the charity sector but the Dilbert-type experience has definitely crept into my work too.
ReplyDeleteGood progress Alastair. It's nice to see a plan that seems to be working. Mine never do!
ReplyDeleteI say well done I didn't even get as far as making a plan.
ReplyDeleteWell done on the progress. I don't think any of us stick to a plan
ReplyDeleteThe Laserburn figures are great fun to paint.
