Does re-painting count? I have a few units that I want to repaint.
but the ones I need to paint are....

ummmmm....

hmmmmm.....

Wow, all my stuff is painted.
CCS. and advisors...... done
PCS......done
5x 10man Cadian sqds.........done
3x 10man Catachan sqds.....done
3x rocket, 3x mortar, 6x AC teams......done
2x 5man stormies........done
4x Ogryn......done
3x commissars......done
Spec. Characters (Harker, Marbo)........done
6x chimeras (double as heavy ordnance)........done
3x LRBT......done
hellhound......done
3x sentinals.......done
2x Valk / Vend.......done (one just recently last week)
1 Vulture........done

Now, to find some $$ to be able to get more!!

I don't know if this is a sign for new stuff or stop. 2 of my air compressors died, one caught fire, another knocks itself to death. so I bought a new one today, compressor with a tank. I got home and went to hook it up and troubleshoot, no problems. Went to clean my airbrush and get some serious painting done, during re-assemble i snapped the nozzle off, sheared it off completely. Iwata HP-A. this thing was bought very used. so now i have a brand new compressor and no airbrush. So i ordered a new one. And hope it arrives soon. Spent more today than what i wanted just to paint some dang Minis! lol

Ok, so I was planning on doing something along these lines anyway - everything has to be painted, based and in foam before I can start another force / buy much more.
I've got a lot of stuff - lot of ebay / second hand things and cheapo bits for making homebrew units etc.
Models marked with a - at the start are 'fanmade' or custom.
Lets run this with a key:
Model = Needs Building
Model = Needs Painting
Model = Done

Dark Eldar:Tau Empire:Chaos Space Marines:Dalek-Crons:Orks:BFG Space Marines:Cases (Building my own): 80% complete.
Foam Trays (also making own): 5% complete.

Exceptions to rule if released:
Dark Eldar Voidraven kit.

When you need a legend and 6 spoiler tags you know you've got your work cut out for you...

I desperately need to commit to this concept, I'll compile my list later.

Ha, don't I know it.
Some 25,000 points of models there.
Frankly some of it, I might sell, or undercoat and go 'sod it, I'll never actually use it' and call it done... xD

On the plus side - I should have at least the Felis Panthera Titan completely done by next saturday.
And hopefuly some other Titans soon after.

16 SM bikes
2 SM attack bikes
3 storm talons
2 vindicators
1 TFC

Damn

I'm reserving my spot on this because I need this to get my painting done haha. I'll post a list when I can get home from school.

I agree.

I'm not even sure I could appropriately catalog the backlog of figures I have. I have an unpainted Chaos Land Raider from when they were first re-boxed with the spiky bitz sprue for Chaos in 2000, and a 5-man squad of Cursed Knights I converted for my Legion of the Damned army, using the Cursed Founding rules in the 2003 Chapter Approved book. And an entire 13th Company army, back from during the 13th Black Crusade worldwide campaign......gah, I need to get back into painting!

Sorry guys but I failed the challenge...went out and bought a Logan Grimnar model today

All i have left to paint are some fenrisian wolves.
And i have no idea what I want to do with them

I'll get in on this, but I've got barely anything to paint compared to you guys.

1x Chaplain with jump pack
1x Captain Fabian conversion
1x Command squad
1x Devastator squad (minus Sergeant)
1x Master of Relics (To be the Dev Sergeant, picking him up next week.)

Chipping away at the sternguard commitment

I'm just dreading the TFC, any tips? (mine's metal)

But I'm such a slow painter :( I think the problem is I like converting much more than I like painting

My list:

Wolf Guard Terminators - base coated
Asurman - 85% done
Spiritseer
5 Wraithblades - (ready to prime)
Wraithlord - (ready to prime)
Wraithknight - (constructing base)
Necron overlord
Archon
3 Infinity models

I'll take the 2 hours that I'd use posting all my crap and use it to paint.

I tried this once... Failed miserably. GW keeps pumping out cool stuff and it's just to hard not to buy the things I really like.

So... does as long as I can do this on a per-army basis I'm in. Also, if someone gets you something as a gift, does that count?

So...

Tyranids:
Parasite of Mortrex
Tyrant Guard x3
Tervigonx1
Zoanthrope x2
Lictor x3
Deathleaper
Hive Guard x2
Ymgard Genestealer x6

Termagant x100 (20 painted so far woo!)
Hormagaunt x120

Chaos Marinesx10
Cultistsx29
Maulerfiend x1
Olde Schoole Predator w/ awesome metal lascannons
10 bikers
/20 allied bloodletters
/Allied Bloodthirster
/allied skullcannon


Am I the only one who is very scared that I could list the things what I need to paint from memory? Should I see one of those people who verifies that you have indeed lost all of your marbles?
Addendum: Holy crap I have a lot of models to paint!

This sounds fun, lord knows i could use a bit of help with the motivation

I have almost the exact same break down of partially assembled Hail Caesar models. Don't know if I want to add them to my pledge too.

Get a blog going and we'll do our best to provide motivation

Not so bad for me.
Dark Vengeance (Everything)
!x Plague Marines
Maybe I should get some paint. That might help the list.

OK. I'm in. I've blown my gaming budget completely this year...

Nidz:


Dark Angels:


Scenery:



DeadZone:


Zombicide



I think my finances are safe for about 3 years.

I'll bite on this one. I don't really have all that much I need to paint. Typically I already buy and then paint what I have before I buy more. Of course sometimes that runs over gift giving occasions so someone buys me a gift before I get everything painted. Currently what I have left was bought as a big group so hence some is yet unpainted.

1 Tactical squad (8 models, already painted the sgt. and the heavy weapon guy because I needed them for a tournament)
5 tac. terminators from the DV box These already have a base coat on them.
1 captain, from the DV box

That is it. A total of 14 models

I want to get these finished up so I can get a 4th bike and 2 attack bikes to add to the DV bikes I already have.

Mine isn't too bad but I'm a slow painter...

1 Predator Annihilator
5 Man Company Veteran Squad
1 Landspeeder Tornado

Painting everything I have lying about is too dangerous, I might die if I paint the last one before buying more!

Guys... guys... I am concerned about the state of your finances!

I have the following to paint (and I thought I was bad):
Space Marines:
1x Standard bearer
4x Tactical marines
3x Tactical marine sergeants
1x Librarian

Orks:
1x Ork nob
1x Ork Warboss

That's it?? Amateur....

I've got tons to paint, but since I enjoy modeling and playing more than painting I will always buy more stuff to build while my paint queue continues to be full. I know for a fact that I will not stick to a plan like this, so won't even pretend to buy into it.

Skriker

I'm so in for this, I have:

18 Dkok
1 Hellhound
1 Vulture (Repaint)
4 (alternate) Chimeras
1 Leman Russ

15 Mk IV Marines
1 apocathery
1 libraian

Necromunda gang.

Not as bad as I thought...

Damn, Um.....why do people buy stuff with so much stuff left to finish?
