Holidaze 2026

 Happy New Year and Merry Christmas to you my dear reader(s)!

Hopefully you are well and are well done with 2025.

Did you get what you wanted from Santa?

As for myself, I got a few things hobby related, which was quite nice.

Air brush primers and thinner, Mimics, Necromunda Van Saars, and late Hundred Years war knights

Over New Years Eve and the surrounding days, I played a game of Root, Finished the D&D campaign with the kiddos (hopefully more on that later) and played a quick game of Necromunda with the kid. 

The Kid BTW made out very well, and got a box of Boarding Action Terrain, a Goliath Gang, the book for said gang, a Risk card game, and a few other things.  Oh, and I got him a print of Mordheim and some witch hunters, so THAT is happening in 2026.

Last year I had planned to work more on Eldar and work on WWII Normandy, neither of which really happened.  I have quite a lot of Eldar built though, so I should get to painting... maybe the new Corsair releases will encourage me?  I did nearly build up the Kill Team: Farstalker Kinband, which was a lovely experience, lots of pieces that go together well and result in some great poses... that I have to paint.  Fortunately I have a contrast paint based plan for that. 

What about you?  What are you working on in 2026?

Merry New Year David!
Nice Xmas haul. Sounds like you are going to have lots to be getting on with this year including a new Mordheim (Cool!) game with your lad, awesome.
For myself - Other than praying for more time to actually be able to work on hobby, I have plenty to be getting on with this year:

Bolt Action - Finish my Greeks, Germans and Canadians (Or at least one of them. Please?)

Relic Knights (Reborn) - Between Black Friday and Xmas I got new stuff to paint up and a mate to play games against (Who sadly doesn't hobby, but loves the look of the game and it's mechanics).

Burrows and Badgers - So many unpainted critters still yet to see my hobby space. And still no games ran. Yet.

Those three are my priorities for this year. Along with terrain. Always need more terrain. LOL

Here's hoping 2026 is a good one for all.

Thanks Dai, looks like you have a lot of hobby potential to look forward to, hopefully with the time to actually do it!
