Hobby Fund: 2014

Hobby Fund

Below you will find a list of all the models I have painted and the Painting Points I have accumulated in doing so over the year and what I have spent the Hobby Fund on. This will also give you an insight into what army models I am adding to my collection.

This list will update throughout the year as more models are painted and the Hobby Fund is emptied. so keep checking back to take a look at where I'm at and what you may face on the table top.

Painting Points System: 2014

Painting Points System: 2014

Last year I adopted a new way to encourage my painting progress. Like a lot of people out there, when it comes to adding a little paint, it seems to get sidelined and other modelling projects are started, new models are purchased and before you know it, one is fielding a half painted army with more painting jobs left to do than one would like to look at.

The idea behind the Painting Points System, is to help keep on top of the painting while adding money into a hobby fund to spend on more models. i.e. paint a model, which in turn gives points to convert into money that then gets spent on new models, it's that simple. Below you will find my Painting Points System for 2014 and a few examples, feel free to adopt your own methods or even use this one. I will be tracking my Painting Points on the site to help give me extra motivation and maybe inspire others.

2014 Wish List

2014 Wish List

A new year has arrived and so has my new wish list. Last year saw quite a few items purchased from the 2013 list found 'Here' and I intend on following suit for 2014.

The wish list helps me focus on what I really want, it also gives people, (you) the chance to chime in and offer advice on whether my intended purchases are a good or bad choice. That doesn't necessarily mean I will not get the item if it is noted a bad idea, but will help me make informed choices.

So take a look at the wish list and let me know your thoughts!

2013 Wish List

Wish List 2013

So in my '2013 Resolutions' post, I included a Wish List, I thought I would elaborate on that list and combined with the Painting Points earned and Hobby Fund section in the side bar to the right, I would explain my reasons for the items on the list and will also update  and add to it as I go.

The List is very geared towards the Grey Knights at the moment, because I would like to get them to as near to completion as possible this year, plus with the possible arrival of a new Tau Codex, they can wait.

I would like to have some feedback on the items I want to purchase and if you have any reason why for example, I should not get a unit because it is rubbish or suggest a unit alternative then please leave a comment.

Anyway, for those that may be interested, or even want to buy me something, you will find the list below:
