I wouldn't count anything that isn't painted. Who doesn't have a big pile of un-painted models lying around?

Fully painted make it an army.
Anyone can buy and assemble a huge army, but putting in the time and effort to actually assemble it means something.
Also, people need to post pics of some of these, just seeing some of them is amazing, more so the 81k ork army 
I agree to a point on this too. A fully painted army is a LOT more satisfying to me than a huge unpainted one.
My Orks will eventually be painted  Probably not for years. I have them all based, and since the pics above about 60% of them are at least 3-colours basically painted, but i plan to get them all up to decent tabletop level at least.
It would help if i could paint quicker/better - still working on that (painting with nerve-damage in the hands sucks btw), but i'm really looking forward to seeing a fully painted waaagh filling up all my shelves
I'm a lot prouder of my little 2000 Pt Nurgle army right now, as 90% of it is painted, and i'm keeping up with the painting as I expand it. I have one HQ (Epidemius) and one unit of Drones to paint, is all.

Like i said in my post, this is about half of my models currently at home. I think the pic was taken before i got him, and none of my other Apoc units are in it either. This was just what i could fit onto my 6 x 4 gaming table

My reaction was the fact that I was impressed by how much he had, how it was ALL painted and how every one of his armies are painted to a common theme. My GK army has a lot of testing in it before I found my theme, so there are a couple of dreads and a unit or two that look quite a bit different. (but it's all metallic, so it's fine.)
I agree with the others. It has to be painted to really count. Although if someone shows a table of 500.000 points of models unpainted, I'll get impressed in a different way. I mean vastness has its own way of impressing.
But I'll go "woah, that's a lot." and then I'll go back to the table of painted models to 'mire some more.

Ascalam - Thats just it
If i saw a P&m blog someone had with them assembling 20k points of models, i'd have a quick look then leave.
I rather see a blog of someone painting up a single unit each month.
Really does look far better when everythings painted.
I mean, i can post pics of 12k of nids or 20k worth of daemons (pics in gallery)
But theres little or no painting been done, so i see it as pointless.

I'm working on it
I've been collecting a very long time, but only really started to get into the painting end (ironically) after my hands got fethed up about 5 years ago.
The doctor recommended taking up painting or sketching as a way to retrain my hands, and i got home and saw my huge grey horde, and thought...why not ..
On the upside i'm pretty sure i have enough models to paint to keep my hands working for some time (especially since i have my Bones coming too), but the irony of the situation did rather strike me
'Why oh why did i collect this many fething orks, and not paint them when my hands still worked right  '

I've been collecting since about '86, the stuff sort of piles up...

Where do you keep all that stuff?
I have a storage unit.
I keep my camping and snowboarding gear in there too.
Every now and again I'll put an army away into storage and bring another out.
I only play with one at a time.
I brought the Necrons out again when the codex got refreshed, bought a load of new stuff, painted it up.
I may refresh the Tau later this year.

I agree with you on finding a theme. My tau went through alot of changes, so did my DE, which is seen on the models, thankfully my Ultras didnt need alot of ideas about creative painting to get them done. The only real wild card in the bunch is my somewhat large IG army, which I have begun to collect the different army factions and through luck or otherwise ( a couple of friends got out of the hobby and i bought theirs, and i didnt have the heart to strip their well painted models) I have an extremely varied collection. I have 75+ catachans, 100+ cadians, 50+ steel legion, and a handfull of Mordians, Valhallans, Vostroyans, and Tallarn. Fluffwise ive simply decided that they are all that was left after a particularly bloody campaign and were rolled into one regiment. This actually makes it interesting for playing because i usually make the Steel legion my mechvets, Ill make catachans harker vets or al'Rahem, general blob troops are cadians, and the odd bits end up being PCS and CCS, which is kinda different with a Valhallan officer and his valhallan bodyguards leading some cadians, and etc. Because of that philosophy ive actually gotten some leeway in painting them in all kinds of different ways. The only thing I occasionally lament is that they do not exactly look like a unified force on the battlefield.
That being said, i still have ALOT of Cadians left to paint, and I do not relish it one bit.

A chapter? Really? That's a hell of a lot more than 15K points. A reinforced company is ~8K.

I have started to accrue quite a reasonable force. I have become somewhat addicted and can't stop although as of now my spree is over.
I have:
4 Grey Knight HQ
20 GK Strike Squad
15 GK Purifiers
15 GK Terminators
2 Landraiders
2 Rhino
1 Razerback
2 StormRaven
2 StormEagle
2 Dread Knight
2 Rifle Dreadnought
1 Standard Dread
2 IG HQ
20 Schock Troops with respirator upgrades used as veterans
5 IG command Squad
1 IG Walker
3 IG Heavy Weapons teams
2 IG Chimera
2 IG LRBT
2 IG Baneblade
2 Vendetta Gunship
17 Legion of the Damned (Basically all current models of LOTD)
2 Chaplain Venerable Dread converted to LOTD Ironclad
The IG are painted in a Grey scheme (Not metalic) to represent being alligned with my Grey Knights and also counting as inquisition where applicable
Not sure of the points on all that but this has been my addiction of late.
Pictures coming eventually as alot is WIP but it is coming along very nicely.

I recommend minimum model count grey knights draigowing (16 models for 1500 pts)...and you just keep them in your pockets with you at all times. Honestly that is just crazy and I would understand if you were paranoid at this point.

By points or by models? Not to mention does this all have to be one 'army'? I've got somewhere in the neighborhood of 20,000pts of stuff from across the spectrum (estimated) (Eldar, Daemonhunters (which at this point are Grey Knights with an airborne Guard Allied detachment), and Dark Angels cover about 18,000 of that, but I've got small Dark Eldar and Tau armies I got 'cause I wanted to paint them), but I tend towards small elite armies which makes the model count unimpressive by comparison.

Daemonic Dreadnought

I know a guy back out east who has 10,000 points of Tyranids, no Apoc models (may be more, haven't seen him in about two years). I still to this day am trying to figure out how he was able to hide all of that in barracks. I do know that he had enough unpainted genestealers to fill a 12"x12"x12" milk crate with a few left over.

Gods? There are no gods. Merely existences, obstacles to overcome.

Its because ordinance is still a word.
However, firing ordinance at someone isn't nearly as threatening as firing ordnance at someone.
Ordinance is a local law, or bill, or other form of legislation.
Ordnance is high caliber explosives.
No 'I' in ordnance.
Don't drown the enemy in legislation, drown them in explosives. |

Fully painted make it an army.
Anyone can buy and assemble a huge army, but putting in the time and effort to actually assemble it means something.
Also, people need to post pics of some of these, just seeing some of them is amazing, more so the 81k ork army 
Second that!
It's not worth mentioning if it isn't even table top.
Having said that I have an average (3-5k) amount of Daemons and Renegade IG so I lose

Powerful Spawning Champion

3000 points of Tau (2 Riptides in the mail, not tallied into the force yet), 4000 points of Ultramarines, 5000 points of Tyranids, 5000 points of Steel Legion, 4000 points of Necrons, and 4000 points of Lizardmen. These numbers by the way do not include the models kitted out. I tend to vary the gear, etc based on what I need, and Battlescribe does the costing out for me when budgets are an actual concern for a match. Those numbers are the bare armies, +/- 100 points. Okay for actual painted stuff, I probably only have about 1000 pts of Tau, 1500 UM, 600 Tyranids, 0 Steel Legion, 1500 Necrons, and 0 Lizardmen. The Lizardmen and Steel Legion stuff are very recent acquisitions, I've been pretty distracted by my Necrons, Tau, and UM stuff, but just today I primed some LM stuff!! I'll get to it all eventually!!
