Out Black Spot!

For the past month or so I've been afflicted by the hobby Black Dog. A strong case of the can't be bothereds. I've been slleping in rather than getting up and painting. Watching a video in the evening instead of assembling placcy bits.

Terrible.

But I think I've broken out. I painted a bakers' dozen of Camel Corps this week. And assembled an Airfix jeep. That's got to count, eh?

But to make sure. To make really sure. To make really really sure I'm taking part in a painting challenge. From the 30th of this month to the 30th Novenmber. 90 days. 90 days to paint... something.

I'm thinking of four Charge!-sized units of foot. What a good opportunity to make use of my old Saxon Army. I think i got about 30 figures into that. So, lets see, about 170 to go. We'll see if I can get through that and perhaps throw in some cavalry and guns too.

Can it be done? Only one way to find out.
