The Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge

The Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge 2022

This month’s Wargames Illustrated (WI409, JANUARY 2022) covered something I've seen before but never took much notice of - The Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge.

I thought it might be fun to do this (or a close approximation of it) to motivate me to get back into the painting rhythm. My gaming friends have also pitched in so there’s a nice bit of peer pressure and friendly “group work” going on.

So I'll track my progress here!
