Primary Projects:
Adversaries for my Pulp games. These will be creatures like mummies and dinosaurs and the like and perhaps a few villians as well. Right now i have about 6 generic savages, 9 mummies, 9 wolves, 5 wearwolves, 8-10 cultist, 10 frog men, 10-20 lost world skinks, and about 10 other beast and creatures. I'd also like to add a few dinos but I'm not sure yet which ones. I'm not setting a date on this other than the end of the year.
Since I'm running the Serenity RPG for my new game group I need to get some minis painted up for it. I've already got some Sci-Fi humans from Star Wars but I could use a few more. The good thing about the serenity setting is that humans are pretty much all you have to deal with. My plans are to do about 10-20 more human types. 10 or so Alliance Fedrals using some Starship Trooper minis I have which is perfect since the troopers from the Firefly TV show wore Starship Trooper armor. I will also be doing 10-20 Reavers using mostly the Scared from Dark Age games since they are a close match. I hope to be ready to start running this game in a couple months so this is really a summer project althout I'm sure I'll be adding things as the campaign runs along.Secondary Projects:

Borderline off topic, but, how do you like the Serenity RPG? I loved the show/movie but wonder how much RP you can do in that universe?
Then there are the mechanics, I haven't seen them, but a friend described them as different and not d20.

I think the setting has a great deal of room for RP. Certainly more than Battlestar Galactica the other major title by MWP. The Verse seems ripe for smuggling and adventure. I've run a few games in it and didn't have any problem comming up with material.
The mechanics were not my favorite. They are pretty loose and skip some important information but the character creation is quite simple. I was crafting NPCs on the fly while running and that's someone that's pretty hard to do with other settings.
Do you play other RPG systems? How difficult would it be to transfer stuff to another system?
Pre-Dark Heresy and soon after watching Serenity in the theater I considered using WFRP to create the Serenity/Firefly archetype characters for RP in the 40k universe but it never materialized.
I may wander that way again at some point using Dark Heresy as a base. But, too many sub-projects, too little time.
