Progress against plan - 3Q25

Progress is still slow with 1,089 items completed, normally I would have completed over 1800, but there have still been various distractions. I am hoping that I can at least complete the majority of my plan by the end of the year.

Progress on my broad themes:

1. Enhance existing armies - Underway
2. 3D printing terrain (FDM) - Nothing done yet as I still haven't had a clear period to run it.
3. 3D printing vehicles and figures (resin) - Completed this summers run and it is now too cold in the garage to run it
4. Continue to clear out all unwanted items, including painted figures - Nothing done yet
5. Enjoy Games & Shows - Going well about to go to "Other Partisan"

Amplifying the above:

1. Enhance existing armies - already planned are

• Continue rebasing the French Napoleonics - Now waiting for figures to be printed
• then I will start on the Austrians - Completed
• 28mm Female Gunfighters - Completed
• 5 units of Napoleonic Spanish round hat infantry (1 of which will be skirmishers) - Completed
• 4 units of Napoleonic Italian line infantry - Completed
• 3 units of Napoleonic Young Guard skirmishers - Completed
• WSS Danish Cuirassiers - Completed
• Hanoverian limbers for the SYW - Nothing done yet
• Some Spanish medievals for the El Cid period - Completed, except I decided to add more infantry figures
• plus the figures listed below to be 3D printed - Underway

2. 3D Printing Terrain (FDM)

• Test printing a Horsa using FDM - Nothing done yet
• Vietnamese hooches - I decided the hooches I bought were not well designed and I need to find something better
• Western European buildings - bought files from a kickstarter
• Spanish/Mediterrainean buildings - Nothing done yet
• New bridges (all eras) - Nothing done yet

3. 3D Printing Vehicles & Figures (Resin)

• Napoleonic Saxon and Westphalian Infantry - Nothing done yet as I have not found any files I like
• Napoleonic Russian Artillery & Gunners - Completed
• Napoleonic Polish Lancers, French Guard Horse Grenadiers and Chasseurs a Cheval - Completed
• WW2 Russian paratroops - Completed
• Gradually replace existing diecast and other poor quality AFVs in my collection - Some done
• Working on more figures with the Resin printer using the more robust resin I have found - Completed, now switched over to ABS water washable resin. I just need to use up my remaining old resin on less critical models

4. 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 - Nothing done since I put already sorted stuff on ebay in January. I now need to sort out the next batch
• Maintain stash (figure and plastic bits box) at 3 crates and hopefully reduce the numbers - Nothing done yet - but nothing substantial purchased so still managing within 3 crates
• Consider the future for my 1st version Springwood figures as I have the capability to replace them with more compatible figures to the 2nd edition - I am going to sell them as I complete their replacements. I will put the French up for sale before the year end

5. Gaming

• Continue supporting the Beacon Club and attending as many weekend events as possible - Well underway with additional periodic games at Si's "Officer's Mess" during the week.
• Try to attend the same number of shows as last year - Like last year the summer is quiet but I've been to the Wirral Warboot and the South West model show at Bovington
