2019 was an extremely productive year for me hobby-wise. I started up with AoS January 2019 after a 15 year hiatus from warhammer and started fresh with Gutbuster ogors. I bought, built, painted and based 2500 points of gutbusters, before I expanded into beastclaw raiders. I bought 3 start collecting BCR boxes and built, painted, and based those as well totalling 4500 points of Ogor Mawtribes done. Around september I started my second army, Daemons of Tzeentch, and have managed to finish building, painting and basing 2 full daemons of Tzeentch SC boxes, 20 blue horrors, 20 brimstones horrors for a total of 2000 points. Currently on my paint desk is Kairos Fateweaver, and I have in box another SC daemons of Tzeentch, as well as another 10 blue and brimstone horrors. My short term goal is to get Kairos painted, and finish building and painting my tzeentch. Hopefully by end of February that can be done, leaving me with 3000 points of finished daemons of Tzeentch.
After that, I’m not sure what 2020 holds! I managed to game roughly once every 2 weeks in 2019, so it might be nice to get in even more gaming in 2020, but it’s tough with work and family. I did dig into all my old warhammer armies from the late 90s and I stripped down my Vampire Counts army (around 1800 points of legions of Nagash in modern value). I’ve managed to re-paint around 200 points of them, but the vast majority is just sitting primed and ready to go. I would like to finish them off in 2020, and run a retro army, but I’m super tempted to start an order army. I’ve been looking a lot at Idoneth or Cities of Sigmar living cities... but these pointy elves teasers definitely have my attention! Ahhh this hobby really is addicting.
I think all things considered, 2020 looks good! My main resolutions then are to A) Finish my daemons of Tzeentch army B) Raise my painting skills to the next level ( right now I’m at a, in my opinion, very solid table top ready standard. I’d like to get even better ) C) Finish painting my retro Vampire Counts army D) Decide on an order army, and purchase and build / paint it one box at a time ( bulk purchases put a lot of pressure on you )!
