Happy New Year and 2023 review

As 2024 looms upon us like a gaint looming thing it is time to look back on the hobby progress over the year, including a couple of bits that didn't make into my blog.

March saw these Ramshackle bits finished and this old converted 40k Dreadnought found on ebay touched up for my tabletop.

For me it felt like my hobby output was quite low but looking back I achieved a fair amount of hobby work.

April saw me finish this Grauncher by Ramshackle games and this mysterious old cargo crate. 

There was a few months when nothing happened. Throughout the year there has been a lot problems with my wife's home dialysis. Water supply failures, diaylsis machine breakdowns and medical supply issues have caused a lot of stress for us both. It was surprising how much of a impact these issues have had on my free time and energy.

July saw me post up all the work I got finished in May, June and July by various manufacturers. Included is a unposted 40K Walker which will serve as support for the Delijellbi forces in my Wild Galaxy setting. 

Work also ramped up to insane levels with people leaving suddenly and work load increasing massively. Looking back my hobby output increased during my holidays. Sadly toward the end of the year I was so burnt out that my hobby mojo had vanished. Thankfully the Christmas holidays has seen my hobby interest return.

August saw me finish rewilding some ruins and even get a couple of games in. I also managed some Necron terrain bits for Zone Raiders. The game pictures and Zone Raiders terrain haven't been shared on this blog.

September saw the miners of Maddans world posted.

Another issue effecting my hobby output was these three furry helpers who have all decided that I am the best place to sleep. I can't complain too much as they are so affectionate.

Joey the Elder

Dixie the thief and Toffee the cuddler. 

Another unposted model. A signal tower for Zone Raiders built from pill bottles and assorted junk. 

Some other things I have been working on is the background fluff of my Zone Raiders setting and Maddans world (along with a few other planet ideas) and my own ruleset. 

It's been a good year of hobby despite the time consuming issues and stresses. I hope 2024 will be much quieter and easier.

I hope you all have a wonderful New Year. I wish everyone a healthly, happy, peaceful and prosperous 2024.

Happy New Year!
