A New Year's Resolution Pt 4

By John Oman

I went through a really painful painting period a couple of months back. I seem to go through periodic gaming lows. Heaven knows why, but I do. I just couldn't look a figure in the face for almost a couple of months. I then applied a variant of my patented, sure-fire way out of the doldrums ? the old "get a new army" and paint that ploy. The twist this time was that I picked up a Dwarf I had lying around and painted him. He turned out to be my saviour, and I then spent the next couple of months cracking on with quiet a few more.

So during March and most of April I did next to nothing, but during the back end of April, May and June I cracked on with my Dwarves and completed 45 of the little chappies. I'm very happy with the way they turned out to boot. I even finished the barbarians selected for March.

That's 6 months done, so I should have completed 120 figures. I'm nearly on target with 116. I hope to make those up in the next month or two.

The fruits of my labours are shown below:

I've located some rather nice Goblins, who have been patiently awaiting attention for about 7 years now and they deserve their day. So during July I will have a crack at 10 of them, together and some barbarians. Although the sight of barbarians is getting to me rather, I'll carry on for a bit - there are only a few of them left now. What do I need more Goblins for? and probably, more importantly where do they keep coming from?

Answer to these questions, and others will be given next month.

A snap of July's task is below:
