Plans for 2021

I’ve decided to concentrate on five main painting/modelling themes this year, quite a bit is based on new and forthcoming releases:
  • Complete rework of my Vietnam War collection by integrating the new figures from Orion
  • War of Spanish Succession - French infantry and cavalry plus British cavalry, plus more as Strelets release them
  • WW2 Japanese for Battlegroup Pacific
  • Rebase my Early Imperial Romans - these are the last ancients that I haven't upgraded
  • Napoleonics, Prussian cavalry, reworking old artillery limbers, Russian peasants for skirmish scenarios, more Spanish cavalry, potentially upgrade British infantry?

Then a host of minor themes in order of preference rather than importance:
  • WW2 SAS & LRDG.
  • More "Three Musketeers", especially once the new Redbox mounted figures are available.
  • Colonials - Boer Artillery and French Foreign Legion in camp and 37mm.
  • TYW Imperial Croatians/Polish Pancerni/Cossack horse archers/Russian hussars.
  • More British and Jacobite for the 45, WAS and SYW, when Redbox release more figures.
  • Medievals - Scottish shiltron, Revolting Peasants (Zvezda), other odd units for Montgisard.
  • SYW Austrian infantry (Roth - Wurtzberg)
  • Revolution Cisialpine Infantry - three or four 12 figure units.
  • The terrain I have failed to make for the last two years.

Then if time permits:
  • More WW2 German cold weather infantry - 2 platoons.
  • Rework/Rebase Zulu War forces.

I’m not making any plans for gaming, but once the show circuit starts I’ll try to get to as many as possible. Plus Crisis Point in April and a possible 2021 Big Game. Crisis in Antwerp would be a big attraction if it goes ahead
