Projects 2023


This year I'm scaling back my projects to focus on only nine things, roughly divided between land, air and sea, as I have concentrated on air and naval projects for the last couple of years which hasn't always worked out and has meant that land warfare subjects have been short-changed. The land projects that I've chosen include some quite big things but, with only a few to tackle, I'm hoping to be able to keep it fresh by switching between them, rather than doing lots of little things that I don't seem to finish in one go. I've also included some optional projects that either need a small effort to finish off or are projects for which I already have forces assembled but could be developed further with minimal outlay. 

So, without further ado, here are my projects for 2023:

Naval

WWII British, German or Japanese early war fleet for Find, Fix and Strike (1/3000th).

English Republic / Anglo-Dutch Age of Sail using Mad for War (1/2400th)

Chilean / Argentinian / Peruvian 'What If?' pre-dreadnoughts for Tsushima or similar (1/2400th)

Opposing fleets of pre-dreadnoughts (French / British?) for Broadside and Salvo (1/2400th)

Air

Agacher Strip War Mali / Burkina Faso aircraft for Merry Xmas, Mr Sankara (1/600th)

1917 German, French and British aircraft for Knights of the Sky (1/72nd)

A scenario writing project for Bag the Hun (1/600th)

(I will also aim to finish off or add-on to some existing 1/600th scale air projects e.g. Finest Hour)

Land

A re-based Ancient Pictish army for Sword and Spear (15mm)

A 300 point ASFR White Army for Red Actions! (15mm)

A new posse for Fistful of Lead (28mm)

(The Sandbox Skirmish post-colonial project may also get a re-boot (15mm) if I have time)

  1. Good list of projects. I am sometimes tempted to do WW2 German vs Russian destroyer actions in the Baltic, but there isn't a lot of information on the topic. Plus, I have too many other projects to complete. I look forward to reading about your Norwegian Campaign exploits.
