You Choose - Painting Diary, Saxons, Norman and Vikings

I think the single best piece of advice I can give in order to increase anyone's painting output is this:

STAY OFF THE INTERNET

Too true .

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

STAY OFF THE INTERNET

And away from the pub......

Right-ho! Having another bash at getting these out before I find have had them for a year...

Review of whats done and whats to come...

DONE:
16x stands of Huscarl, 32x stands of Select Fyrd.

STARTED TODAY:
16x stands of Lesser Fyrd

TO DO:
3x stands of Command, 4x stands of Cavalry, 16x stands of Select Fyrd, 18x stands of Skirmishers.

TARGET DATE: 24th July, which will leave me two weeks before I go on holiday to make a start on the Norman Milites to pit them against

Dangerous time of the year for me this. Junior Cricket coming to a close and family holiday approaching (see seperate thread). I usually find that after the summer it gets harder and harder to find time to paint

16 stands of lesser fyrd started today, finished today

Hmmm So I have stopped painting to come on the internet to read the advice to stay off the internet so that I can get more painting done............My head hurts

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

You expect logic around here....

No pics until I am finished - determined to get this one done on target

Just finished the last 16 Fyrd leaving 4 cavalry and 3 command to go. Just flocking left to do beyond that and ten days in which to do it.

[Nosher]

Mounted huscarls x4 done, Command x3 done - flocking to do and then army complete ahead of *schedule*

Not the original schedule but the re-scheduled schedule Pics once flocking is done, just for Mr H

just realised that I have done myself a misjustice thinking these took a year to do. Looking back at my first post its actually 8 months and I was recovering from a major operation (lobotmy) when I started the project.

So, if lgis is right, you should be seeing the Normans in Feb 2012 and the Vikings in October 2012!!!
