Greeks for Cynoscephalae: If I paint some pikemen I've got a Macedonian Army!Well, my first year of logging my painted figures is over so now it's time to analyse it.
Firstly, though, the figures for December are as follows:
Sudan British RMLI 3
Cowboy 1
GnW Swedish 9
LotR Gondor archers 4
LotR Uruk hai beserker 1
LotR Dwarves 2
Dutch Napoleonic Jaegers 4
Total 24
This means that I have painted 312 figures this year which is, amazingly, exactly 6 a week, so I have achieved my target!
For 2008 I am going to aim to do 7 figures a week! Whether I achieve this or not will depend on how much travelling I have to do. Last year I was abroad on business 60 days, so in reality I actually painted 7 figures a week when I was at home, so it should be acheivable. Let's see how many I can do in my last week of holiday.
Next I need to look at my real problem: not being able to concentrate on any one army. With 300 figures I could have done two complete WAB armies if I was able to focus!
Actually, when I look at what I painted it could be worse:
Sudan 105Ancient Greeks 104
Punic Romans 29
Middle Imperial Roman 15
Dark Ages 15
Great Northern War 14
Lord of the Rings 12
Darkest Africa 11
Napoleonic 4
Pulp 2
Old West 1
Other than the Sudan, my main period, it was mostly Greeks for Cynoscephalae. For 2008 I expect Great Northern Wars to be up there.
That's a good quantity for one year, LH, over a wide spread of periods. Incidentally, I was discussed the Sudan with the London "General de Brigade" chaps the other day and there is a GdB colonials rule-set in the early stages of development. Could be interesting.
