Hah yeah I used to have a horrible issue with that as well. Ended up with like 6 half done armies.

Can't you see we have been abandoned? Forget matters of duty and honor to the emperor this is now a matter of pride.

I'm having the same problem. 10 Possessed CSMs are base-coated and waiting on the table for real paint. And 20 regular CSMs and a Rhino are still waiting on their sprues. And yet, I am here.

Did you make one here or a real blog somewhere? Because since I don't have any readers, I don't feel accountable at all with mine.

Get your gak eating face off of dakka and start painting like a real man!

There.

I need to paint roughly 1,500 points of eldar in... about three weeks.

Not fun, luckily though, no working, no gaming, nothing. Just droningly painting my miniatures. I was going to start a P&M thread... but my digital camera lost its charger.

Wish me luck!

Good luck to your painting too, I hate having to paint infantry sized models, space marines are ok, but guard/eldar/tau? Blecht.

Hmmm...

Not so sure about this.

How about we suspend your account for a while?

Would that give you enough time and motivation to finish what you need to finish?

I painted a green wave ork army... you can paint 45 measley more units!
Sit down, get some music going (HUGE library on shuffle and loop) and grab a 2 liter of whatever keeps your butt awake. I prefer green tea, just because if its-I'M RAMBLING!

See my mechanical arm? *Points at picture* You must become one with your inner robot and paint like the assembly line piece of crap that you are!

You're not FORD. You're not DODGE! You're a WH40K MACHINE SO BUILD LIKE ONE!

p.s. I perfectly constructed 3 leman russ tanks in the time it took my friend to build one... it is possible. You just have to DO IT!

This is completely contrary to what you're asking for, but I personally prefer to take it slow with the painting. I don't want to burn myself out by setting goals that force me to paint even if I don't want to.

I paint when I'm in the mood to paint. When I'm not in the mood, I do something else.

Of course, this is probably why I have 1500 points of Tau, 1000 points of Daemons, and 1000 points of Necrons setting on a table at home, half of them primed, half of them unprimed, NONE of them painted.

And it took me a solid six months (nearly) to paint 3400 points of Space Marines and the 500 points of Tau I do have painted.
