Compared to my much looser plan than usual I have done the following:
- Rework/Rebase as many figures as possible - underway
- Enhance/Add some new forces to the collection - underway, but I've not seen anything to tempt me into a new period yet
- Maintain or ideally reduce the stash - ongoing
- Exploit the 3D Printer - I restarted the printer, but as the temperature was still low the failure rate was higher than normal, so I'll leave it for now and work on files to print
- Enjoy Games & Shows - underway with trips to Vapnartak and Hammerhead plus the recent Easter big game
1. Rework/Rebase as many figures as possible.
- Start on the Napoleonics (this may take a couple of years to do) - I've made a start on the British - British are now well underway
- WW2 Winter Russians - not started yet, but I've bought the necessary figures
- Early War German Fallschirmjager - not started yet
2. Enhance/Add some new forces to the collection in no particular order
- 15mm DBA Italian wars army (for the forthcoming inter-club tournament) - bought a Hungarian army but it didn't have all the necessary options, so I will use some borrowed "Florentines" for the game with some additions
- 28mm Female Gunfighters - not started yet
- Add a unit of WW2 Japanese SNLF - completed
- Extra units for the Crusades - not started yet
- French Dragoons for Egypt 1800 - not started yet
- Modify the SYW Austrian Grenz to use for Prussian Frei Korps - not started yet
- Some extra Aztecs for skirmish games - not started yet, but I have trialed a couple of 3D printed figures
- Various figures and terrain need for Montgisard 1177 - not started yet
- WW2 BEF infantry (I plan to 3D print the extra needed figures, etc.) - not started yet
3. Continue to clear out all unwanted items, including painted figures
- Re-assess each existing period, army, and units to consider if I am really going to use them - not started yet
- Reduce the stash (figure and plastic bits box) from 4 crates to 3 - not started yet
- review my 1/300 collection and decide its fate - not started yet
4. 3D Printing - the bulk of my immediate needs have been printed so I will work on
- gradually replace existing diecast and other poor quality AFVs in my collection - not started yet
- components for houses and other terrain - not started yet
- work on how to make/modify files to meet my specific needs - underway, I've enhanced my 1/80 Waco and I'm currently working on a similar bath-tubbed Horsa glider
- Continue supporting the Beacon Club and attending as many weekend events as possible - underway only one weekend missed so far due to other commitments
- Attend at least as many shows as last year - underway with trips to Vapnartak and Hammerhead plus the recent Easter big game
