1) Finish my Death Guard
2) Start and finish a Tyranid army
3) Finish my FW Abbadon
4) Attempt first cut at GD
5) Try and get fit
6) Try to quit smoking
7) Continue to avoid children and pregnancy like the plague. If she wants something cute she can have another kitten.

There is no try. Only do or do not

Good luck on the smoking part. just think about it - less money on smoking means more money on models and resin crack

My resolutions are:

1. finish 1500pts of DK in time for bash
2. Make a more signicant dent in my DK painting after bash
3. Sell some of my old armies
4. resist the temptation to start any new armies
5. Finish painting FoW army.

That should keep me going for a while!

I've never been the biggest fan on New Years' Resolutions -- in part because I tend to break them! Still, the new start offered by a new year allows me to make some decisions and to try to stick to them.

As I'm getting that bit older, I'm having to re-evaluate the hobby and its position in my life. I love the background and I love the game, but I'm never going to be one of these people with multiple 10,000+ point armies sitting around on my shelves. I don't have the space and I don't have the time. As a result, there is a lot of my 40k stuff that I'm going to be selling off/giving away in an attempt to make some space (and some cash!)

That's not to say that I'm giving up on my hobby altogether - I wouldn't want to. I'm just having to prioritise. With real-world stuff going on, I want a hobby that is right for me, that is shaped to fit my needs and that provides me with a rewarding experience. Not an obligation, or a chore, or a drag - something good in my life that provides me with that necessary bit of escapism and, most importantly, FUN!

So in the new year you'll probably see a lot of INQ28, where I can cherry-pick the models I want to make. Probably some more specialist games, and some of my PARAGONS superhero-related stuff. But equally, I should hopefully get more gaming done, more Inquisitor battle-reports and the like. It should be fun!

Keep my girlish figure. Paint some stuff I've bought. Maybe sell some stuff I paint. No more expensive substance-based habits. Drive legally. No outstanding warrants. Road trip. Brush up on the photography. Get into a good school.

You know, the usual.
