The only way I have a chance to succeed is to make a focused plan and stick to it. I thought it might be useful if I laid out my total plan to see if it would help anyone plan their hobby to meet a deadline. All major projects require a sound plan in my opinion and with out it they are destined to fail, however a plan is not guarantee of success, you need to stick to them and keep focused. So here is what I am setting myself to do.
Assemble (Phase 1 Aiming to complete by 26th August):
- 10 Boar Riders (to be used as Goblin Wolf Riders). Two will be modelled as Black Orcs and will act as Scar Vets in my Liz-Orc List. Gorbad Ironclaw will be my Old Blood.

- Finish Assembling 5 River Trolls.
- Assemble Avatars of War Orc Shaman.
- Finish Converting 2 Rock Lobbas and a Doom Diver
- Assemble two "Mangler Squigs" (3 fanatics on a base with a Giant Mushoom in the middle)
- Crew for all Warmachines
- 2 Spear Chukka Conversions
- Magnetise whole army

So its a pretty tall order and I really don't think this is achievable but I will definitely try my best and if I fail then ill borrow a friends army. I know I have chosen a pretty cookie cutter list but I wont have much time for I really don't want to have to do this however as I really like going to a tournament with my own army and enjoying using it! What do you guys think, is it possible?

1. If anyone can do this, you can.
ReplyDelete2. This sort of thing would kill me.
Lol thanks buddy, got off to a sticky start this week but should start powering through now! Might tweak the paint list as I go to reduce the work load but will try my best! Looking forward to the hobby day coming up!
