Oi... a few AoBR sets worth, whatever the WHFB version of the same is, a stormsword box, the defiler + stompa I am working into a super heavy, oh a scratch built warhound, a platoon or two of cadians, a hell hound still NIB, a few TH/SS termies to finish, a portion of my ork army, the new Ramshackle Spider tank, 3-4 drop pods, ~30-40 models bought for characters from random lines... some buildings... how am I married you ask? Our house has LOTS of little hidden cubby holes, and my wife isn't tall enough to see the higher shelves


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Oh, and entirely Rackham Warriors of Chaos army of around 1200 points that I bought, put together and then sort of lost interest in.

I paint everything I get the day or day after I get it...nothing better to do and my paint scheme is exremely simple.

So, none

I have about 60 - 70 units I reckon - mostly Eldar, with some Chaos. They're all assembled and packed up in plastic boxes. I went off painting for a long time after painting up a huge Apocalypse scale Blood Angels army (all that red!), but i kept collecting and assembling and converting. Thankfully the painting bug has returned to me now, so I can hopefully, slowly, begin to catch up on it. I'm currently putting the finishing touches to some Black Legion Chosen, then I'm painting Flamers of Tzeentch. I can't decide whether to paint all my Chaos and then move on to Eldar, or alternate units e.g Chaos then Eldar then Chaos etc. Help me decide?

i have a whole painting table consumed by unpainted hormagaunts, necrons, orks and mutilated spacematines

@ Trilobite:

I've got to say, converting and assembling takes priority for me! When I do et around to painting it's usually after i have run out of conversions to do!

I generally start an army then get bored... So i have about 50 unpainted but made models because I keep switching. Hopefully I can keep to my Grey Knight army.

i own around 100,000 points of 40k, and i would say that 99.9% of it is unpainted. how many models is that? around 45 armies, each about 2000 points, average of about 60 models each. that's about 2700 unpainted models.

I've got enough unpainted minis to last me for years! I have 4 fantasy armies, 2 40k armies, and various LOTR, and Battle Fleet Gothic. Every time GW comes out with new models for any of my armies I have to get them, and I can never seem to catch up!

Needs to be painted:
6 LRBT
3 Chimeras
3 Valks
3 squads of valhalans
2 command squads
6 HW squads
12 SW squads
3 sentinals
10 ratlings
2 penal legion squads
150 conscripts

Done:
7 Squads of valhallans
1 manhunter (marbo)


Everything is built, primed and magnetized as needed (hw teams too ).

Well, probably 5-7 units. But at least 2 of those are ork boyz.

In the case of the orkz, I got 35 done and decided I never wanted to paint another greenskin again. They probably won't see paint for a very long, long time.

Another unit is a squad of Eldar Warwalkers. Never got around to it, and after my policy of only painting models I like came into play, it'll be a while before those get painted too.

Krieg Command Squad needs painting, only 2 of 8 painted, but it's just a matter of time and work and insomnia coming together in a horrible combination.

Same thing for Maugan Ra.

And hopefully not the same thing for the Inquisitor Lord I plan on starting tomorrow.


Oh, and a box full of orkz that my friend dumped on me. I don't consider them part of my pile, since I never bought them anyway. They were just given to me since he didn't want them (he got rid of them for NECRONS of all things...).

too many unpainted
most of a marine army and most of a lizards army
ive been good with my eldar and chaos though only buy once there painted

Damn it!

I have unpainted:
- brits for Peninsula War 1808-1814 something like 100 models
- American Civil War Confederates something like 50 models
- Old West only couple of dozens upainted models
- Bretonian army for Historcal Battles (no magic, pegasus, etc.) 80 models

All of them are 28mm of course.

If a Gipsy woman would prophesy my "You shall not die untill you paint all of your toy soldiers" I will be immortal!

I think you need a "I have a room full of unpainted models" option for HBMC.

Currently: 1k of BA, 3k of nids, 1k of orks, and 500pts of daemons.

i have a handful of unpainted models between all my armies, maybe 20 total.

i paint to play, so nothing i play with is unpainted. plus im a speed painter so i can crank out units in hours so that helps as well.

Most of my models are unpainted.

Can't stand it (painting, that is).

Ironically, at the last major event we held, I had the most painted army (my Necrons). That was amusing.

HBMC: Have you cataloged your collection?

Would be interesting...

2 squads of guardsmen
A chimera and LR demolisher that need repainting
25 csm that needre painting
2 chaos terminators and 3 possessed that need painting
A chaos dread and abbadon
And commissar Yarrick
And then a new manticore
And LRBT
And......

I'm working on 3 companies worth of Blood Angels. Got it all primed... now for the 100 cans of mechrite red to basecoat em. Thank the emperor for the spray gun!

My unpainted stock takes up about 9-12 cubic feet in a closet. Probably at least two potential 40k armies, as well as stuff that's not for 40k: like Confrontation, WHFB, and Reaper minis set aside for general fantasy use (such as D&D), an entire shoebox of Clan War minis that either are plain silver or so badly painted that they're going to be stripped and count as unpainted, plus who knows what else in there.

Oh, yeah, there's also one 2-foot-tall spare-parts bits box, and a smaller tackle-sized box full of parts as well.

The bright side is that I've pretty much not bought anything that went into the closet in a couple of years. The only stuff that I've bought in that time has gone pretty much directly to converting and then to painting. I'm gradually working my way through the old stuff as I kick in various projects. The only stuff I've bought that went straight to the closet was a supply of parts for my eventual conversion of a Napoleonic-era dragon in His Majesty's Royal Air Corps (that's waiting for me to be able to justify picking up the $70+ metal dragon that'll be the center of it all).

I actually don't count in my army if they arent painted so all ive got is some scouts unpainted

Five incubi waiting to be painted

i have 40 orc boys 12 squigs and 120 night goblins unpainted. There I admitted i have a problem!

Painted:
Black Reach Marines / Cybot / Termies
5 Sniper Scouts

unpainted:
a whole friggin lot of ebay stuff / still stripping the paint...

approx 150 models / 10 tanks... i know, i know......

OHHH MY GOD, if a even had a 25cents for ever model i had i would have 50$, at least.
The thing is, that most of them were given to me by friends cause they now i love converting stuff

Most of my models are Orks, Lizardmen and Space Marines but i have plenty of others, not that it's a bad thing i love Warhammer...... to a certain extent.

It keeps getting bigger and bigger! just bought a bunch of crap on ebay that I didnt need. I got 200+ models for 117$. Winzzz

No I haven't, and yes that would be interesting...

I just acquired 30+ new unpainted minis. Damn! Can I change my answer!?

i have all my models except black reach and a few necron warriors primed black/white/grey


95% of teens would go into a panic attack if the jonas brothers were about to jump off the empire state building, copy and paste this if you are the 5% who would pull up a lawn chair & grab some popcorn and yell JUMP!!!!!

About 1500pts of Guard, including two Valkyries and three tanks.

Yes, I'm doomed.

The pile is too big I fear it may swallow me one day.
