Jasper_the_2nd Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 You are so far ahead of me... The only "army" I've ever finished was a 100 point Drazens Horde squad for Chainmail, and it was only 4 figures. The other games I've played I've tried to complete one unit before the game stopped being produced. With VOID I even failed at that; only had one figure finished...sigh. But I've just started painting again this year. Finished a fig for my D&D character. Have another almost ready to base, and I'm working on a couple of Rifts Juicer figs (yes, I've had them unpainted since the 90s) to have them base coated to try out the Quick Shade I just ordered. And all this activity (except for the D&D fig, which is a Meridh, Elven Sergeant, converted to use a khopesh...only took me 11 levels in D&D to get him finished) is because I moved, so have nothing better to do at lunch then paint at my desk at work. I figured if I can't find time to paint at home I'll paint at work. Of course now, with the kickstarter, I'm hoping to get the kids painting at home, so good thing I'm getting lots of paints in the kickstarter too. So, for inspiration, I bet you can finish your army before I can get my fully painted dwarf scorcher based and sealed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psyberwolfe1 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 This is why my sig line has a goal and the figure count. I'm woefully behind, but after I finish assembling all the Space Marines I just got this last week (Damn you GW for an awesome 40K box set) I will be back in the painting game.

(I know I'll hate myself for asking this) What box set was that? Because me being a guy with 500+ unpainted miniatures you *know* I need some more!

siliconjedi Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 Yeah, I'm gonna let these guys soak for a few more days, work on a few D&D character minis... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocturne Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 (I know I'll hate myself for asking this) What box set was that? Because me being a guy with 500+ unpainted miniatures you *know* I need some more! Obviously I don't know for sure but my money would be on the new Dark Vengeance set. I'm sorely tempted but just can't squeeze the pennies out at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because me being a guy with 500+ unpainted miniatures you *know* I need some more! That would be the Dark Vengence Limited Edition Box. I traded out my Chaos for another's Dark Angels and this box is gloriously beautiful. Yes I've been playing the boys in green since before they were green (i.e. Rogue Trader days.) 500+ unpainted miniatures? Newb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was bummed after I did up 3 squads of them back in the day then they changed them to green!! My friend did Blood Angels and w'd have them fight each other. Stupid Blood Angels - there's only one Angel in the Space Marine Corps! Of course Chaos was my other army but I never got a lot of models for it - they always seemed more expensive than other armies. This new boxed set sounds pretty awesome but I'm broke! yay! No miniatures for the unpainted pile! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted September 13, 2012 Moderator Share Posted September 13, 2012 I've come down with a bit of a fever the last couple days, so you've got some time to catch up if you'd like it. All my lifetime painting count does is highlight my own obsessiveness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
