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.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.

Day three hundred and twenty 15th November 2020 I continued to paint my ACW today but I don't like them and I've decided not to continue with this project. It's retreading old ground and my enthusiasm has waned. Until then I'm casting around for something different. I have some WWII on the way.

Also, a couple of platoon's worth of WWII British arrived from NorthStar.
