Hobby Summary: September 2025

September was a little dissapointing in terms of work done on miniatures. I must admit that it was intense with a holiday trip, retake of my calculus exam etc. I have also decided to drop tracking my painting spree as it would get restarted too many times. I have also decided to resign from my "at least 1 mini/day" system as I currently have too many things going on to be able to dedicate. Its goal was to normalize painting for me and make me pick up the brush with the same joy as I pick up a book to read. And it was a great success (at least judging by the number of painted miniatures). My current goal is to try to have more miniatures painted in a month that there days in that month (which was not achieved in September, unfortunately). I also planned to paint only orcs and other greenskins in O(r)ctober, but ultimately decided against it not to get burned out. I fully intend for greenskins to be the focus for the month, but I will paint other models when I feel like doing so!
