I don't think I'll have anything done for this month but thanks to this thread I've decided to go all out. Instead of painting 12 misty mountain goblins, I've decided to go with the whole lot! About halfway through all the skins so hopefully by the end of February I'll be able to report in with 30 odd goblins finished :)

Awesome! I hope everybody else is plugging along as well! It's getting close to the end of the month.

Well, I'm a little late registering, but so far this month I've painted Thorin with Orcrist, 12 Erebor Dwarves and I'm well on my way to finishing 10 Moria Goblins, a MG Captain and a Blackshield Drum.

Next on the docket are 39 more Moria Goblins, a Drum, 4 Blackshields and Groblug. Should add a nice 500ish points to my Moria force there...

Was thinking the same thing. I need to get cranking.
Although I've done well for my norm so far.
The Mumak, The Necromancer, Bolg, a blue Istari (Sharkey Sculpt), Saruman, and 2 Metal Scout Uruks thus far.

I've only painted Bofur and Eowyn so far this month XD
I'm pretty chuffed with the quality though...

Heh, I've been off work this week so that really helped me along. Just about at 26 models done for the month, which is more than I did in the entirety of last year...

I'm at 24 models, which is rather a lot for me. Good to see this is motivating people to paint!

Thanks for adding me to the first post, Erunion!

Today I bought a box of Grimhammers. Those will be my first order of business right after these Goblins. Probably a February contribution, I'm hoping...

Well I know its not the end of the month yet but I have painted 12 army of the dead, 2 Riders of the dead, 7 wild wargs, 8 uruk-hai scouts, 1 cave troll and 8 uruk-hai pikeman for a total of 38 painted models. I painted about that much in total lat year so very successful. I purchased 24 goblins and traded spacehulk for a mumakil and another 50 plastics. Looking forward to february and will upload photos when I can. Won't be painting anything else this month me thinks. Too much outdoor work to do. Maybe it will rain and I can get some more done!

Good job, John!

I know what you mean about outdoor work. I thought I'd get some good painting in yesterday, but my son and I ended up shoveling the snow off of our sidewalk & driveway, as well as those of some elderly gentlemen down the street. By the time we were done, we had to leave and go to a birthday party instead. Oh well!

Aye, progress has slowed to a halt for me as well sadly. Hopefully today I'll be able to get some done. The "month" ends on the 5th, is that right?

Author:  Erunion [ Sun Jan 26, 2014 2:52 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: 2014 Backlog Reduction Oath

The "month" ends with the calendar month. I just wanted to give people a couple extra days to get their reports in before we tally the points for the month. I'll be posting a report template in a couple of days that everyone can copy and paste into their post so that it's easy to tabulate the points.

Ah, right. Sounds good then. I shall double my efforts on these remaining 20 Goblins!

I'm VERY dissapointed with myself.

Painted: 2 riders of Rohan, Theoden mounted (Pelennor), Rohan captain, Gamling, 7 warriors of Rohan, Malbeth and Forlong.

Now...
Bought: 28 warriors of Rohan, 12 riders of Rohan, Theoden ft. and mtd, Theoden (warg attack), Theoden (Helm's deep), Eomer ft, Gamling ft, Eorl the young ft. and mtd, box of Rohan commanders, Hama ft, 16 Grey company rangers and a mounted Royal guard. Oh lawd. :?

Okay, here's the report form. Just copy and paste the text below into your post and fill in the information. If you need to add more bullet points, just click the bracketed asterisk at the top of the post editor. I'll tally up the points and post everyone's results for the month and update the first post with the cumulative points. Remember, you can report at any point, but the deadline for submitting is on the 5th of the following month (e.g. January's report must be received by February 5th) or you will receive 0 points for the month.

Ohh, minor hijack, but Erunion- would you mind taking a few snaps of red box minis next to LotR minis?

Do you have any red box dwarves?

I'll get mine done shortly. I'm busting a gut to get a troll done for the monthly competition, which has really slowed down my progress this month!
