Steady as she goes....

I have managed to paint four times for about an hour each over the last month, and as such I am now nearing the end of painting the red tunics for the British infantry - just one regiment and two skirmish units (Pickets and Marksmen) left before I can see a different paint pot to the bloody red I've been using for the last six weeks or so.....

As from my experience of doing the rebel skirmishers, I will be based the british skirmishers before I attempt to paint them - I had thankfully done the cutting of the metal strips last year.

I have a plan.......

I have had an extended break as I have no not until now been ready to restart, following a close friend passing away six months ago.

To provide some new focus, I have put into storage all miniatures that are nothing to do with AWI, and I have set some basic aspirations/targets around minimum time spent painting AWI each week/month.

I stayed up to watch the Super Bowl last night, being a Packers fan, so I did not get to sleep until 3.30am. I had hoped to start today but I will mark it in for tomorrow night.

The plus side from this, is that it will allow me to review the order I will paint the regiments - likely to be British Foot Infantry but there is scope to continue with some of the Rebels as well. Thankfully, I found all my infantry painting notes that I painstakingly researched.
