"Eyes down for a Full House!"

This year, I am going to be playing...
Mike 'the Dark Templar' Reynolds, alerted me to this 'Wargame Hobby 'Bingo' card created by the incredibly talented, and jolly nice chap, Rob Hawkins Esq.  It is generic enough to be used for any historical period or hobby style. Each row contains a square for painting, conversion work and scenery building, so you need to do a little bit of everything to fill it in.  The card is reproduced with kind permission from Rob, but if you haven't already done so, I would urge you to take some time to visit his truly inspirational site: The Rob Hawkins Hobby Blog

I have created a separate page, here, to chart my progress...

  3. Brill idea, Michael. I absolutely love it!! Certainly something I'd be interested in looking at once the AHPC has finished rather than my own monthly challenges. Thanks for this :-)

  4. Ha ha, this reminds me a bit of my own "painting generator", should be fun and sort of turns the mundane process of painting and making stuff into a game of it's own.

    Cheers Roger.

  5. :) you're the second one I read this year who borrowed it (the first one was Richard Smith), I think it's a great idea. Perhaps I should make one for myself too, just to keep me going.

  9. Did all the squares today..HOUSE!!!!!
    Ok..I´ll go for that..25 squares should be easy enough. The Paint all the minis in a board game and Play it might be a sticking Point but I´ll think about that.
    The one Thing. The middle one. can the based army be one that´s already finished or one that is in progress when one starts the Bingo ?..oh, and what constitutes a army? Mine tend to be pretty open ended..ie; there is no end in sight.
