I care, but I just moved cross country. This move entailed staying at various friends' for three weeks, followed by two weeks of apartment hunting, then waiting for the movers, then slowly unpacking everything. Have to go to IKEA tomorrow to get a missing piece of guest bed (as an example of what's involved).

I am hoping to pick up a paint brush later in the week!

Good job everyone

Now with a compliment to motivate you, get off your butts and paint!

(oh my aren't I a hypocrit... )

@Ollieholmes: To9G is a sort of communal painting log where members motivate participants to stick to a personal schedule for the completion of a goal (usually an army). Obviously it has kind of fallen apart with the absence of the unofficial moderator, Gaarew, but if you're really serious about painting an army in a certain amount of time, participating in To9G can be really fun.

At this point, any update would be great to keep the flow moving, so I suppose you could immediately post your painting schedule (month by month) in accordance with the rules of To9G (first thread page I believe) and start painting!

Don't take my word for it, I'm no expert on To9G, merely an avid follower

Oh and one more thing:

[spoiler]BAM! I have committed a coup, overthrowing Gaarew's dictatorial regime, only to replace it with a stricter one. WORK, YOU MAGGOTS.

Right side of the army the river militia is missing on this picture cause I'm painting them

I hope more people are coming further this and I'm asking buckland brewer to change the topic name.

hero of gondor

Been a LONG time since I last looked on here.

Some good things, some not so good progess, some excusable, some not.

Good work to those you have chipped in alot - It's definately a harder challenge without John forming a spearhead through the year.

4 More Months after this one, so keep it together all!

I finished the river militia apart from the shield wich are painted red and yellow with a crow on the shield the symbol of Dale.

comments are really nice and maybe some ideas to make Bard?

Fantastic how you keep the flame burning!
Well done so far! Looks awesome!

Rohan... great figures, great force, but I just hate to paint them!

I think they are fantastic to paint but that's my opinion especially theoden is a real pleasure to paint.

O, O, O, is that a broken spear ? Did the little boy messed cith dadies models ? And did he gave one 2 left hands ? Did he ? Yes he did !
Bad boy!

No, just kiddin
Great looking army! How did you do that hero ? Or is it just a normal fig?
Anyway, keep up those updates!

Keep up the good work, it's great to see this (slowly) crawling along.

Thanks for the compliments

About the 2 left hands and much of the other conversions that you get with a cat of 9kg

And the hero is a old hama model.

nice

Update time

Finished thranduills riders with shields and banner and I have some close ups of the eagle already painted and I painted bilbo.






comments are welcome

A B5A army was a good idea, it gave you alot of choice and it looks great. But 1 thing I don't like very much is that you used the 'ah-I-am-home' bilbo, and not the converted one (never seen the hobbit supplement ?).
O, and when are you planning to paint Thorin ?
