Andrew at Crafts and Minis got me interested in #HobbyStreak last year when he began posting his videos and tweets about his daily progress in the hobby. The idea is that you do a little every day and record it on Twitter with the #HobbyStreak hashtag so that people can follow along and, together with everyone else who's doing the same, you can see some real progress as time passes.
This year I decided to give it a try. You can follow my daily updates on my Twitter feed and, from time to time I'll be updating this page with my progress as well.

Day 400 3rd February 2021 More armour for the allies completed.
Day 401 4th February 2021 I've based the latest batch of armour.
Day 402 5th February 2021 Today I finished the district maps for Neon City. Thats' 17 maps in total, here is a selection.
Day 403 6th February 2021 Tonight we played the 11th instalment of our Wired Neon City Cyberpunk ttrpg. The Bodycount associated with the annual Dogenzaka Hill bake-off competition reached 18 which topped last year's total by 4.

Day 405 8th February 2021 I've prepped my Skull and Crown KS rabbit hunting party. They're hunting priests! I'm hoping to get these done quickly before the next WWII stuff comes along.
Day 406 9th February 2021 I made some progress on my rabbits but some WWII stuff arrived so I assembled that as well and then I had to go and talk to my wife instead of painting because it's her 60th birthday and you know how old people can be if they think you're ignoring them.
Day 407 10th February 2021 I've nearly finished my hunting rabbits.
Day 408 11th February 2021 I've finished my hunting rabbits and basing is underway.
Day 409 12th February 2021 My hunting rabbits are based.
Day 410 13th February 2021 Tonight we played the 12th instalment of our on-going cyberpunk ttrpg using the Wired Neon City rules. A big gambling win against an unhappy yakuza boss, an orbital laser strike and roaming hi-tek hitmen are all part of life in the Neon City.
Day 411 14th February 2021 The third of my introduction to Crossfire videos: Movement and Reactive Fire.
Day 412 15th February 2021 Prepping the next lot of WWII stuff.

Day 415 18th February 2021 The latest lot of WWII stuff is complete. I'll attach the figures to the motorcycle when the bases are dry.
Day 416 19th February 2021 This lot of WWII stuff is done. I've ordered some Royal Marine Commandos who can attack this German convoy when they get here and try to capture the general (or shoot him, whatever).
Day 417 20th February 2021 Tonight we played the 13th instalment of our ongoing cyberpunk ttrpg using the Wired Neon Cities rules. A "quiet" night out, Election rigging, Strange eyeless creatures and rescuing giant tortoises from an illegal lab are all part of life in Neon City.
Day 418 21st February 2021 The fourth of my Introduction to Crossfire videos; rallying and Close Combat.
Day 419 22nd February 2021 Today I made a load of stat cards for the gangs and adversaries in my cyberpunk ttrpg campaign using the Wired Neon Cities rules.

Day 421 24th February 2021 The Dark Elf Icon bearers are based and I've spent a happy couple of hours assembling some ACW cavalry.
Day 422 25th February 2021 Once again forces beyond my control applied the breaks to my proposed ACW project. Luckily my Commandos turned up so I could start on them instead.
Day 423 26th February 2021 Started on my Commandos.
Day 424 27th February 2021 No game today because Giro is streaming his Gameblast so I've been working on formatting my notes into a marketable product. Deciding between fortnight and fourteen. Any preferences?
Day 425 28th February 2021 Progress on my WWII British Commandos.
