Resolutions 2026

 So despite the fact that we are nearly two months in to the year, here are my yearly resolutions for 2026! There won't be as many as last year, as given it's already the end of February a d I have picked up a brush about 4 times and built half a dozen models, several of which were 2 piece models!

Anyway, here's the list! (Not in any particular order)

1) Build, 2) paint and 3) varnish Grey Knights Terminators

Not yet purchased but I do want these. They will be for my Imperial Agents army but my find themselves very quickly relegated to the display cabinet if 11th does away with the Agents codex!

4) Build, 5) paint and 6) varnish Sisters Rhino

Another model that hasn’t been purchased yet! Either way, I plan to get one of these this year for my sisters to trundle round in, but may suffer the same fate as the Grey Knights above. 

7) paint and 8) varnish Death Korps Engineers

These are primed and ready and I have a paint scheme in mind, slightly different from the regular Krieg but easily identifiable as part of the same army. Just need time to paint now!

9) Build, 10) paint and 11) varnish Field Ordnance Battery 

I abe 4 guns, for two squads, on order from Forbidden Planet. Hopefully they will turn up soon and then I can get building so I have a squad of each type of gun. These will be built to be Krieg in style to match the rest of the Krieg models I have. 

12) paint and 13) varnish Death Korps heavy weapons squads

Three squads ready to paint. These will be in the same scheme as the main force. 

14) paint and 15) varnish Death Korps Command Squad

These are half painted already, with 6 of the 12 models painted. I will be doing these first, as soon as I get some time! 

16) kitbash, 17) paint and 18) varnish Eagle Knights vanguard vets

I have tem models ready to kitbash in to vanguard vets for the Eagle Knights. I have been holding off a bit as these are one of the few first born kits still around and I expect an update soon, possibly for 11th. That means these will be on the back burner for a little bit until I see what happens or I run out of other stuff to paint (which is unlikely!)

19) paint and 20) varnish Kasrkin

The last on the list are the Kasrkin models that need painting and varnishing. Technically there are 10 Kasrkin and 2 Castellans but I'm just limping them in together here as they are going to be painted basically the same. 

So a little bit of a smaller list this year but still quite a few items on the list, 9 of which relate to models I don't even own yet! I am hopeful that despite a slow start to the year and the wee one grows bigger he will start sleeping in the evenings and maybe even for propped naps in the day when I can get some painting done. Time will tell and come the end of the year, I will have painted everything or, more likely, I won't have. Either way, the target is set, it's time to get moving!
