Ugghh i know the feeling. Airbrushes have sped up my painting no end but theres still a disturbingly high unpainted to painted ratio...

This is the most recent shot I have and as you can see there is a large lack of paint



And I just keep getting more models... The Dark vengence box is not going to help me in that regard either... I already have many offers to trade for the DA half of the boxes I am buying. That means piles of cultists! yay!

I think my current unpainted count is something like 20k over all the systems.

I probably have 5k painted

.... >.< ummm I probably have 20k unpainted that isn;t chaos... Between my tau, SM's, Eldar and Tyranids I have a lot left to finish!

Did I mention I also have a Lizardmen army that hasn't been out of it's box in 10 years?

You need to hire a commission painter.

It's a technique.

I agree... But Ifalna won't take army comissions

She didn't say anything about legion commissions though, I think you've gone past the army point

haha! tooo true. I could probably employ her full time for a year

You could always get GMMStudios to paint everything...

Haha! some quick math basically puts it at $1 / point for painting....

That's $23000 lol.... OUCH

Thatd be worth it, you can get a mortgage right?

On CSM?

Only if I can prove that I can live in them and that they have residual value

Lovign everything. You need to do a full army shot at this apoc game!

And no models The only cure is to buy more i guess.

Also, sorry to be a pain, but do you reckon you could measure how high a decimator is?

*forgot his ruler fo rthe second night in a row...*

Hahaha no sweat, its only a curiosity atm.

Cool, I'm all packed up and ready to go home so I will have to measure the model when I get there

BTW... I can;t wait to get home and open my 3 copies of Dark Vengence.... (why do I keep doing this to myself??)

Presumably you really dont want to paint

I actually bought myself a case that I can bring my paints and miniatures to work in my last time at home.

I will be filling that up with marines and painting out a few squads on my next run after I shade them with my air brush.

The plan is in motion it's just not travelling quickly yet!

Building soooo many dark vengence models.... sooo many >.@ and sooo many more models coming out this month.... ZOMG

I haven't fallen into that pit yet, but rumor is it's being bought for me at the end of Sept. Hmm. Only 28,466 models left to paint.

Soooooo I have been quiet... but I have been busy















Weeeeeeee Now to figure out how the hell to play my army again.... >.<

Looking impressive but no dragon?

Mmm what a lovely bunch of scum

Although i have to say im not a fan of all the Hellbrutes having the same pose. Doing a little something to change the silhouette slightly would go a long way.

Yeah, I will probably work on that in the future. Not much choice without sawing and GS 'n
Now that I know they are my *Chaos Dreadnought* I can employ some creative freedom.

I have 3 in the mail The $90 retail price tag was too much to eat so I mail ordered

Very impressive... But actually my first thought was Wow. where's the other half of those sets?

My second thought was "Very impressive!".

My first thought was that my ninjas have failed yet again.



If Logan keeps this up he will end up becoming a Demon Prince...or a Spawn.

How are you ever going to paint all these though

I think it would take Iffy a life time to paint all your models

Yeah this new chaos release has messed me right up! I'm pretty sure the Tau are getting cut from the team.....

Yay!

Dude that haul is so massive and impressive, yet at the same time so very intimidating. Good luck diving into that horde. Ramping up for an APOC game?

What's scary is that none of the vehicles have arrived in the mail yet >.<

The Tau officially went up for sale and may even be sold! I'm stoked!

And yes, I am actually ramping up to APOC My Brother's Ork's are getting really massive and we almost have enough table room/terrain to make it an interesting game! Soon.... soon my pretties...

I think when I get home from work in 2 weeks I will be back to painting for a little while

I'm planning on doing a few test marines to get my colour down
