Modified Motivational Model Math Method (Quint-M)
Infantry = 1 point
Cavalry or bikes = 2 points
Monster or Dreadnought = 5 points
Vehicle = 10 points
Superheavy vehicle = 20 points
But this does not have anything about assembling units. The emphasis is on painting. Right now in my to-do pile for assembly lies the entire contents of an AoBR set, 3 SM Bikes, an extra 20 ork Boyz, and an extra 5 nobz + warboss. That comes out to a total of: 10 tactical marines, 5 terminators, 1 dreadnought, 1 captain, 3 SM bikes, 40 ork boyz, 10 ork nobz, 2 ork warbosses, and 3 deffkoptas. That is a considerable undertaking, and I think they merit points. Therefore, I am going to use the following system to rate my progress in a month:
ASSEMBLY
Infantry = 1 point every 2 troops
Independant Characters = 1 point
Cavalry or bikes = 1 point
Monster or Dreadnought = 2 points
Vehicle = 5 points
Superheavy vehicle = 10 points
PAINTING
Infantry = 1 point
Independant Characters = 2 points
Cavalry or bikes = 2 points
Monster or Dreadnought = 5 points
Vehicle = 10 points
Superheavy vehicle = 20 points
I now will refer to this method of motivation as Quint-M (like quantam but pronounced quint'im). I will post a new entry in the sidebar to track my monthly progress using this method. I added an entry for independant characters, as it doesn't seem right to only attribute 1 point for them. I spend a lot more time on an independant character than I do on a single tactical space marine.
I don't expect anybody will use this method, but if you do, I hope this motivates you to assemble your models as well as paint them!

Sounds good - I certainly have a number of models awaiting assembley!
ReplyDeleteI'd say at least give yourself 2pts for bikes/cavalry - one for the rider and one for the mount. Good luck!
