Something I think that would be really cool for these kinds of threads would be a progress post that could be edited/updated. Basically stating what status you're at with what models, etc. You could have a listing for models that are assembled, painted, and completed (based/decaled/etc). Maybe an outlined goal of what you have yet to accomplish (kind of an inventory of what you've yet to work on).
It's just interesting to see how much progress is being made over time.
