Krefey 387 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 OK, so let's start a monthly hobby pledge. The idea is that we pledge to finish something (can be anything or any amount) at the start of the month and have it done by the end of the month. We can then vote for our favourite pieces each month. I'm going to kick off the March Hobby Pledge by pledging to finish painting my Mastadon. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
korocite 129 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I am hastily preparing a unit of old school terminators for a campaign that I am playing with Big. There are only six of them, but there are enough other distractions in life to make that a challenge for me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oceanborn 49 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) Hmm...seeing as I'm a supporter of the idea I'd better commit to something! I'll make a short list: 15mm 'Nam infantry platoon 15mm Dutch Leopard 2 tank platoon At least one random 28mm figure I may get distracted and build 1/144 model aircraft instead...

Kn'Thrak 186 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 End of the month? That's only a few weeks away! This doesn't leave enough time for procrastinating. Can I pledge a single infantry model? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Considering the rules are that we can pledge any amount, then I think that a single infantry model is ok by the rules after all, if it's 28mm that's about the equivalent amount of work as my entire 15mm 'Nam platoon 😛 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cory 2 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I'll pledge to finish weathering and putting details on five of the vehicles for my US Winter WW2 Army 28mm. I may live to regret that, but hopefully this forces me to get it done! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Base coated at the moment. As far as the dirty weathering I'm not 100% sure yet, I don't usually go too crazy with them. To fit the winter theme though the vehicles will be white washed. I've done this in the past by wetting the model, covering in salt and air brushing white over the top. Once you use a brush to get rid of the salt it leaves a white washed effect.
