I can be proud to say that I have personally painted 95+% of all my models. Now I have to go back and either redo some or finish detailing them. Unfortunately for me, I'm to poor to pay someone else to paint any of my models but I have been getting better.

Man, the fully painted part is what really screws me. I have a lot of stuff base coated that just needs more detail work, but none of it is technically fully painted.

2500 points worth of plague marines all full painted.

But I'm just starting Eldar. Got a squad of guardians that need ANOTHER layer of white and some detail work, and a squad of rangers with narry more than primer on them. Farseer & warlocks and a war walker still in boxes.

My problem is I found a really quick and easy way to paint decent looking nurgle troops, decided my second army would be something that would force me to be a better painter. Biel-Tan Eldar are certainly doing the job, its just a bit soul destroying at times.

Again, echoing others on here, many of my models are fully painted but not finished. By that I mean Decals, Varnish or embellishments on the bases, so I reckon 70% done.

Assembled models? I'd say 95+ %, though I'm not sure if semi-assembled counts (I left the hull off of my vyper to paint the cockpit detailing). If it doesn't, then I'm at 100% painted, but with loads still sitting on sprues.

Interesting thread. Alot of my models are metal and one piece, but aren't painted.

I won't call them "assembled" unless they've been cleaned up and put on a base for painting. In that case, I've got 85%+ of my assembled models painted.

I tend to finish painting stuff in a reasonable time after assembling it or starting to paint it. The real problem is the huge number of figs (probably 40% of my entire collection) that have not even been started.

All of them are assembled. and All the ones I use for games are painted, I have 25% of my total models unpainted.

It varies from gamesystem to game system realy. For my Easterlings in LOTR it is around 70 to 80% complet and no more work needed. For my eternal project that is my Chaos Dwarfs some 50% is painted, and that is mostly due to that I find painting resin figures ratherd more challeging than plastic ones. For 40k and my Eldar and IG alongside my Sm it is around 60 to 70 % done at this time.

I have 5% of models sitting on my desk and primed, I keep on promising to buy that last paint for them, but i never find the time
