Right now I have twenty generic boyz with handweapons to do, plus the standard 4-piece command group - eventually this is going to be a unit of twenty including standard and musician, plus a hero-champion, leaving three figures spare.
Once these guys are done my next batch will be twenty arrer boyz (archers), then after that the goblins (20 melee, 20 archers), and after all of that who knows. I'm planning on painting the arrer boyz up as two units of ten, plus a hero-champion for each and the usual standard and musician for each.
I'm basically starting off with the minimums as per Warhammer Armies, though along the way I have also been bidding on various orcy-gobliny things on ebay as well. I'd love to be able to add in a unit of the old Regiments of Renown Mother Crushers and a unit of the Despoiling Hobgoblins as a mercenary detachment (the first unit I ever bought and fielded was the Despoiling Hobs), though that all depends on how well I can do ebay and various trades.

That sounds like quite a plan! I'm also putting together an O&G army, starting with mostly goblins.. led by a human wizard... I decided to start of quite small, so my first unit of goblin archers only has 6 in it and I hope to play some smaller skirmish games first.
So I'll be looking on with interest!
Actually, I am pretty sure I have the Mother Crushers somewhere... I've been racking my brain lately as to where they might be, though. So no promises but I'll have a rummage and see if I can find them!
