My goal is to acquire a new 27 watt 4 pin bulb so I can see to paint.  Currently browsing Amazon for free shipping.

Work on my Dragon for Reapercon.  It doesn't have to be finished but I should be somewhere in the adding highlights or deepening shadows area. 

and the scenic base should be constructed, and moving towards the final stages.

Really wanted to make May terrain month, but in order to get in more Frostgrave, Malifaux, 40k and WHF games.... I really need to get a move on our armies/miniatures!

Anyway, so here's where I'm at:

 

• Terrain - finishing "Portal" piece
• working on son's army - Ghostark for his Necrons, DONE! and 5 Immortals (Built)
• new Wyrd model (for contest) DONE!
• RATS!!! Finally finally starting some of my Skaven Giant Rats, and hopefully ordering the reaper Barrow Rats, cuz they're just too cool
• Malifaux models: Pigapult & 3 Piglets (Built, need to paint)
• Hopefully building an actual board, on which to put terrain pieces
• 5 more Luna Wolves, and a Rhino (Built, primed, first basecoat; Built about to be Primed!)
• also hopefully getting time to sort through stuffs and really get a good idea of how to get what I want done, actually, you know, done.

[Citrine]

My May goal is 3 + 1 large mini. I will try to finish some half painted stuff, rather than start something new like last month.

[Silvervane]

My goal is to finish 2 mini's this month. Should be doable since I have 3-4 partially finished mini's.

[Pegazus]

Haven't done one in a while. But let's have a go:

 

1) Paint on the Savannah at least twice a week.

2) IMEF Sargent, Nick Stone

3) Danar, Assassin

4) One video on painting (have no figure targeted yet; might be one of the above).

5) Solidify a ReaperCon figure plan

6) Fully sketch out a custom CAV to build up

[Mierot]

April was, well, distracted. Hopefully May will be better.

 

My goals for April May:

• Work on my 54mm orc shaman.
• Finish at least one other miniature. Done! One Talisman hobgoblin finished.

April was definitely a crazy month for me too! Here's to time in May for hobbies!

 

- Finish sculpting big deer for my mother-in-law (in time for Mother's Day)

- Sculpt some small items for the Box of Goodwill

- Sew a dress for summer!

- Complete lesson 3 of my art class 

- Artist Trading Card

- Paint a military babe and a silly space pug for my brother-in-law's birthday (first week of June)

[buckyball]

Well this is the end of the semester and I am super busy for the first two weeks of the month. So I will probably just do the mandatory minimum again. This month I think it will be 5.

BUT I do plan to start something more ambitious for June. That way I may make the most of my time off. I also want to get the local painter's group meeting regularly during the break.

[Darkmeer]

My goal is not really hobby related, but I have some work to finish on a laundry room I'm expanding in my house.  After that, it's clean up my paint area, so I can actually paint again.  Hopefully that will be done in may. 

 

If I get something done, I hope to paint 2-5 minis this month.  Probably a H&F Dwarf or two, or more Pathfinder Bones minis. 

 

I have many irons in the fire right now.

[Coleford]

My May goals are to ...
Take photos of all my minis I have painted since last updating my WIP page (Lots)
Paint and base 5 new minis from the original Bones Set

Finish 5 nearly completed, half painted minis from original Bones Set
