Almost finished my 2 Oblits and 2 Greater Possessed.

Still need to finish:
1 Wraithlord and 8 Eldar Gaurdians
1 DW Watchmaster

Once I get those done, I'll be finished. I'm trying to finally reach a point in which I have no unpainted minis.
I used to be good at keeping up, but life is pretty busy with a wife and 2 teens

It's interesting, seeing you guys without much in the queue, trying to complete everything you have. I think I like having a backlog. I'd prefer it was a bit smaller than the list I put in my previous post, but I do like having a wide range of different models sitting around so I can paint whatever takes my fancy at the time without having to go buy something new first.

Everybody's different, etc.

What's left in my collection to paint? Good lord, this could take a while...

Various characters including a couple of Chaplains, 2 or 3 Librarians, a couple of Masters, etc.
4 5-man Tactical Squads

And that's just my Warhammer 40k backlog. Yikes, right?

I’m only going to list the things in the primed and ready pile. The built and ready to prime pile is smaller (5 dire avengers, phobos lib, farseer, 3 centurions, gravis captain) but as I rattlecan prime outdoors, they are probably going to wait until spring. The pile of shame is too much to contemplate without descending into madness, especially if I crack open the oubliettes.

But when i think of things on my “to paint” list, this is what I have in mind. Stuff ready for the brush.

5 wraithblades
Jetseer
Wave Serpent

Misc:
2 fantasy wizards who I should really just chuck in with my assorted dead projects
1 sister of sigmar I started the face on as a demo for a friend, keep on meaning to finish.

Lately I've been finishing a 5-man squad or a tank roughly once a week, and if I could maintain that pace I'd have everything I currently own done in 30 weeks, with another 7 on the to-buy list.

I also have a couple of tanks for my Imperial Guard and some Terminators for my Space Marines, but at least those were presents and not purchases, so the moral shame is not as great.

Some of you have more unpanted mini that I have had mini in my life ! That's impressive.
That's why I'm focusing more on little projects now: some Elysian, some Inquisition, a few Necromunda gangs...

Oh, I've got more unpainted minis than a GW store has in stock.

Basically everything. The pile of shame is too shameful to list. Many kits across many game systems.

The biggest item in the list is a custom lucius pattern warlord titan. It really needs an airbrush to tackle, which I don't own and have never used. And so it sits in a box, subassemblies glued and pinned, weapons magnetized, everything sanded and primed, just yearning to be finished. But no, it's cries of anguish remain unanswered.

Remember, there's this Holiday coming up where family members often need ideas of what to shop for....

And with a huge pile-o-shame you've got plenty of test subjects.

I still haven't put any paint on the Dark Eldar I bought back in the beginning of 3rd edition. If I started listing all the things I've got unfinished I'd probably be here all day with my 6-7 factions hah.

It's easier to list what I HAVE finished:

2 Carnifex
9 old Raveners
Red Terror
About 20 Hormagaunts and 10 Rippers
40 Genestealers
13 Stealth Suits
6 Crisis Suits
24 Fire Warriors
24 Vespid
20 Kroot
4 Kroot Hounds
The Chosen from Dark Vengeance
one Imperial Guard Squad
one Bastion
one Chimera
Two Land Raiders
a Land Speeder
a Rhino
some Dark Angels fallen
metal Drazhar
5 Incubi
7 Venoms
squad of Kabalites
4 squads of Trueborn

My current to-paint list isn't actually all that big compared to some of these, but I've also completely sold out of wargaming a couple of times and the dollar value of toy soldiers that I've bought, assembled, and never painted (or even played in a lot of cases) is actually kind of depressing.

Too many...

433 figures to paint, including most of 2nd Ed. box set, all but a couple of BSF and all the SM portion of conquest mag.

That's without going into other game systems.... or KS collections

Far too much lol

3 Plague Burst Crawlers
10 blightlord terminators
Finish the armor plates for my nurgle knight
basing my killteam
finish making my palanquin of nurgle
kitbash my daemon princes

I won't got into unbuilt or unprimed models, but my winter painting pile looks like this:

2 Oblits
1 Greater Possessed

Night Lords
40 CSM
7 Dark Vengeance Chosen + 1 Vrosh Tattersoul

Death Guard
20 Poxwalkers
1 Cultist
2 Bloat Drones
1 Blight Hauler
8 Plague Marines
2 Terminators
1 Helbrute

245 models, all at least undercoated, many partially painted. I’m interested to see what I finish before spring hits.

Lots. Many lots. Many, many lots.....

Hundreds if not thousands of figures. But I AM down to my last 32L build box.....

I'm terrified of counting all of it up, probbaly best for my sanity that I don't go down that rabbit hole lol
