Results from the 2022/23 Hobby Season

 

So we've come to the end of another hobby season and it is time to reflect on the season past to discuss what got completed, what did not, and showcase the fruits of my labor.  Here's where the 2022/23 To Do List stands as the hobby season wraps up. Items crossed out were completed, the rest were not. Honestly, I haven't looked back at this list for most of the season so it's interesting for me to see the results.

The Horus Heresy

• Complete two Dark Angels Legion Characters
  
• Complete two Dark Angels Legion Infantry Units
  
• Complete two Dark Angels Legion Vehicles
• Completed two Predator tanks
  
• Complete another Dreadnought
• Completed a Contemptor Dreadnought
  

Warhammer 40K

• Complete five Intercessors

Adeptus Titanicus

• Complete Legio Tempestus Warmaster Iconoclast Titan
• Complete Legio Tempestus Reaver
  
• Complete Legio Ignatum Reaver
  
• Complete some more weapon options
  

Aeronautica Imperialis

• Complete another starter box, or another faction.
• Completed Skies of Fire
  

Bonus Projects:

• Complete Two More Blackstone Fortress Characters
  
• Complete a Second Legio Ignatum Warlord Titan
• Warlord Built...

Here's what got completed that wasn't on the list: 

The Horus Heresy

• Completed The Lion
  
• Completed a squad of Knights Cenobium

Warhammer 40K

• Completed Azrael and 4 other Dark Angels Characters
• Completed an Aggressor Squad (3 models)
  

Aeronautica Imperialis

• Completed the Wrath of Angels starter box
• Completed ten Necron Aircraft
  

Much of this last list got done due to inspiration coming from things that were on the original To Do list. For instance, I enjoyed painting the Skies of Fire planes so much, that I really wanted to complete the third boxed set...and the Necrons! Painting the Predators and Contemptor left me looking forward to finally tackling The Lion and his Knights Cenobium.  The 40K Dark Angels were inspired by past progress and the release of The Lion's 40K self (and the updated Azrael, to be honest).

I kept focus to my primary projects 930K, 40K, AT, AI), even if I didn't complete what was originally on the list.  And I certainly didn't have extra time for the bonus projects - though I am glad I got the AT Warlord built at least. Taken in all, it has been a fun and productive season! 19 Infantry models, 1 30k Primarch (monster sized model), three vehicles, 31 tiny planes and two tiny titans.  Not a bad haul!

Here's a look at what got completed:

 

So that's a wrap on the 2022/23 season - To Do has become TO DONE.  Now it's on to the 2023/24 season.  I'm looking forward to many fun projects lurking on the shelves of my hobby bunker.  I'll put up a post in the next week or so launching the new season officially and sharing a new To Do list.  Looking forward to sharing progress and celebrating the successes and learning moments along the way.

Cheers and Happy Gaming!
