What is the purpose of this thread?

The pressure from you guys is supposed to make me want to get it done instead of just putting it off. Also guess what!

Alright I'll tell you. I just started painting my scouts (spse marines HURR!) and they seem to be doing okay, but the black i'm using for their details, it's a gloss, not a matte. Well, one does what one can do. Cherrio!

(I"m not British, btw)

Great thread, although almost everyone I know that has plays some sort of miniature game has very little problem in buying more figures than they paint - hence why the purchase of figs is often not part of a vow or whatever.

I have 100+ unpainted figures sitting there in my drawer.

Nearly finished a 10 man dire avenger squad, and would like to finish a 10 man pathfinder squad as well for Sunday for my first visit to a gaming club - should be interesting.

They are already undercoated, so don't need to prep them at least!
