2024 Resolutions

 

This year's resolutions will be a bit of a mixed bag. I have decided that this year will be a year of finishing touches more than anything else. There will be a few bigger projects, mostly the ones carried forward from last year but in general there will be a large number of smaller projects to bring things to a close. So, buckle up, this is going to take a while!

1l Paint Eagle Knights first born 

This shouldn't be to difficult to do as there is only a squads of assault marines and a command squad left, all pre-primed in orange.

2) Varnish Eagle Knights Rhinos

These are painted ready for some varnish to seal them.

3) Quickshade Eagle Knights

Once the last models are painted up, all the recent additions need to be dipped in Quickshade to seal and protect them.

4) Paint Eagle knights drop pod

One of the acquisition's from earlier this year. Already primed just need finishing off before varnishing

5) Build Eagle Knights Company Hero's

I have 3 AoS Sigmar models to build as my Company Hero's squad. I have most of the parts ready to go, just need to sort a couple of bits, mainly the Heavy Bolter

6) Paint Eagle Knights Primaris models 

With the three to build, there are 4 in total that need painting. The extra one is primed orange and ready to go.

7) Paint Eagle knights Landraider

This is a bit of a questionably one actually. Not in terms of needing to paint and finish it, but in terms of which army it will join. At the moment it's the Eagle Knights but it might just find its way in to the Dark Guardians as terminator transport. 

8) Paint Dark Guardians first born terminators

Talking of Terminators, here they are. There's quite a few to get painted, and alongside the bikes probably represent the biggest tasks on this list.

9) Paint Dark Guardians first born bikes 

To match the terminators, the bikes and attack bikes for the Dark Guardians also need painting up.

 10) Deathwatch transfers

Back to the little projects. I think there is maybe half a dozen guys that need chapter transfers put on. This should be very quick and easy to finish.

11) Quickshade Deathwatch infantry

And once the transfers are done, the models need dipping and protecting.

12) Deathwatch rhinos painted

There are two Rhinos that need painting up to go with the Deathwatch. They also need some new bits as I appear to have misplaced the doors at some point, and being MK1 Rhinos, I'm having trouble finding new ones!

13) Deathwatch rhinos varnished

Again these will need a coat of varnish when they are finished.

14) Deathwatch dreadnoughts varnished

Lastly to finish the Deathwatch off, the three Dreadnoughts need a coat of varnish to keep them safe.

15) Paint knight

He's already built and magnetised ready for priming and painting.

16) Varnish Knight

Once he is painted he will need protecting from all the handling he won't be getting!

17) Paint rough riders

I've not quite finished building these guys yet, halfway through, so they will be done before the new year.

18) Quickshade Rough riders 

Again, once painted, they will need protecting

19) Quickshade scions

These are the extra models I had to built after the release of the 9th edition codex and need dipping like all their brethren.

20) Quickshade bulldogs

It's getting quite repetitive now, so I'm sure you get the idea.

21) Quickshade Navy Breachers

Same again

22) FOB varnish

And again, although varnish rather than Quickshade I think.

23) Quickshade any other infantry

This is a bit of a place holder. I do have some marines 6 first born Stone Dragons and 5 Ultramarine Tyrannic War Vets that need dipping and I'm sure there will be others along the way. These will all get added in to here, as and when I find them.

24) Lore update

Finally, the big lore update I've been planning since the Cicatrix Maledictum dropped! I will get around to it at some point, hopefully it will be this year.

So, 24 points to this year's list. That's quite a long list of to do's but many of them will probably coincide with each other, such as the Quickshade dipping and varnishing. I'm not sure if I will get all of these don't this year but I'm hopeful. Much will depend on what happens with jobs and the like but I really want to finish up as many projects as I can this year.
