Truthfully, less than 100. Most of it is CSM I was gathering together when GW put the embargo on the ROTW, breaking my heart and killing my enthusiasm for 40k in the process. I can't bring myself to sell them, however.

A whole undead army for AoS, the AoS starter box, and DV starter box... all assembled, only 10 ghouls have been painted. I think the number is a little over 100. All my old SM, I.G. and D.E. are no longer with me They were all painted

Yup, same here. Including historicals, I often tell fellow gamers that if a nuke went off nearby, as long as I was in my garage the sheer amount of lead on the shelves would act as a bunker against the radiation. GW alone is probably into the thousands unpainted; including historicals and other fantasy/ SF figures I'm easily over ten thousand I would think. It's depressing really so I don't talk about it much lol. On the other hand, if I'm ever stuck for something to paint or if I start a new project, chances are pretty good that I already have *something* I could use towards it on the shelf Automatically Appended Next Post: Gitkikka wrote:Ha. People in this thread are accurately listing what they need to paint, and I'm over here re-discovering stuff that I forgot I had. Every dusty box in the garage is like a Christmas present
This....so much this lol. Just going into my garage to look for something is like digging for gold, and nuggets I had long forgotten I had show up constantly. It's pretty cool actually as long as I don't think about the expense. But then again I don't drink or smoke and I've been at this hobby since 1978 so I figure it could be worse!

Conan, what is best in miniatures gaming?
To crush your opponent, stack their minis in a dead pile, and hear the lamentations of the painters. |

A ton of you painted stuff. I can't really count them (in a different city at the moment) but I know I have probably 200-250 skaven models unpainted maybe 150 is a better estimate (or me just being hopefully). Then I have a ton of lord of the rings stuff unpainted or in various disarray. Most of my empire stuff is unpainted, Tau stuff is about half painted and space marines are mostly painted. Some odds and ends here and there have some dindrezi (or however you spell it) ships I want to paint at some point.
Lots of stuff is actually still on sprue or in boxes...I just like to buy stuff is that such a problem?!

I have hundreds of wargaming minis that need painting, but it should be less than 1,000 total. I don't feel any need to torture myself with precisely how many hundreds it might be.

Over three hundred Ork boys.The majority Slugga boyz but well over fifty shoota boyz.
Twenty Deff Koptas
1 Trukk
2 Battlewagons.
11 Burna Boyz...
The list grows on, needless to say a lot.
Death Guard, I can proudly say...Save for the little Daemon army I use from time to time, but have found Nurgle daemons are meh. And that's just fifteen or so models.

I now have 5.
I caved and bought some new infinity stuff that I haven't had time to paint yet.

This will be remedied by the end of next week, though.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

4 complete armies for Rackham Confrontation. Plus 3 Titan Dragons, 2 Tarascus, 2 Flesh Golems, and 3 Mid-Nor Hydras.
A box full of old Ilyad models.
3 boxes of assorted Kingdom Death resins, plus the stupid pile of Kingdom Death: Monster and all its expansions (which I haven't even bothered to unpack).
The entire current releases for Cthulhu Wars.
An entire troupe of Red Box Games Varp Kigare.
All the Orc releases from Norsgard, and half the current releases for the Horde.
The entire collections for Lost, Demons, Immortals, and Sarrasins for Helldorado.
A whole bunch of unsorted Anima Tactics miniatures.
A whole bunch of unsorted SMOG miniatures.
Good grief. I give up. I'm never going to finish counting the stuff I have lying around. I estimate all these, plus the boutique stuff I have (Terrible Kids Stuff, Nuts Planet, REN Studio, Siren Miniatures, etc.), around the 3000 to 4000 mark. Enough lead and resin to last me several lifetimes.
I haven't even counted the incoming Kickstarters yet ......

the bits of 40k I cannot put to anything else and not really worth anything to sell...
Orks and Chaos Space Marines and Demons.
Contemplated trying to trade it for something, anything that's not goblins (I've painted too many green things).
Contemplating getting historicals as my next project (like confederates and making a gunline army for 9th age).

It's gotta be in the hundreds.
Hell, I have at least a couple of dozen 40K models I bought in 3rd and 4th edition that I haven't painted, and yet I just started on a pair of 15mm fantasy armies!

I've decided to focus on just painting my Skitarii, Cult Mech, and Imperial Knights. I have about an equal size army of Imperial Fists, and a far larger army of Daemons that have not really been touched. The admech army alone depresses me.
30x Vanguard
10x Rangers
4x Ironstrider Ballistarius
4x Sydonian Dragoons
16x Sicarian Ruststalkers
9x Sicarian Infiltrators
5x Imperial Knights
15x Kataphron Battle Servitors
2x Cybernetica Datasmiths
10x Fulgurite Electro-Priests
10x Corpuscarii Electro-Priests

Oh god.
GK- only 13. One is a Stormraven and another is a Land raider though, soooooo....
DE- 162. I don't have an excuse.
Necrons- 59
Dark angels- 41
30k Night Lords- 14
I also ordered a start collecting box of tau and two broadsides that have not come in yet.
I'm just awful. I spend too much time trading and on ebay and not enough time painting.
