Hobby Pledges 2026

[zoidpinhead 12927xp 0]

Today is the end of Q1 of 2026.  Where did all that time go?!?  I’m checking in with this month’s total which is 71 or equivalent completed.  That takes the annual total to 275/365.   Only 90 to go and I should be through those by early May if I can keep this rate up.

Recent completions included plenty of things for Warriors of Athena.  Typically though I’ve distracted myself with Argonauts and still don’t have enough painted stuff to play the first scenario 😀  My Harryhausen giant cyclops also won the March PaintComp. Do join in with the fun there.  There is a new theme word each month which we do not take at all seriously.  It is a great excuse to get something all covered in paint.  Finally for this month I’ve also started my Spring Clean Challenge which will be a Dogs of War army featuring many Regiments of Renown.  It’s a huge task, over 150 miniatures to complete between now and the summer solstice.

How is everyone else getting on?

Remember to have fun out there and if there is a secret it is to keep picking up those brushes 🙂

Don’t ask me. I’m still trying to figure out where the last 50 years went!

Since I haven’t pledged (I didn’t didn’t I?) I’m golden! haha!

In the first 3 months of the year I have made a reasonable start with my aims and actually managed to finish one and get the Vikings completed.

Dark Age Madness

Only knocked up a few command stands and an artillery piece for the War of the Roses.

Next up are the Normans

I’ve changed my pledge a few times and in March I made Marvel Crisis Protocol my focus.

Over the last few weeks I’ve built tiles… bought, assembled and primed the X-Men starter… bought, assembled and started painting the NYC Block terrain pack.

Today I couldn’t focus on the hobby, so I didn’t. Perhaps it’s because I’m at the tedious part of terrain painting (windows are not fun) and the daunting prospect of painting the miniatures, but I’m pleased with my progress so far.

The end of April has arrived and we are a third of the way through the year.  I’m plugging away with my Spring Clean Challenge Dogs of War and am about half way through.  Good progress there has helped me to pass my minimum annual output requirement of 365 minis already.  I’m at 383/365.  That is the soonest in the year I’ve managed to reach that pledge so I’m very pleased.  Here’s the most recent miniature completed, The Green Knight:
