1) Listen to music/audio books when painting (I watch TV shows or movies)
2) Change up what you are painting. I rotate between building kits and painting, with options for various games and armies. Keeps from getting bored of painting one color over and over.
3) Manageable batch sizes. I tend to work on 3-5 guys at a time, no more than 10. Helps show progress without getting overwhelmed.
3b) Out of sight = out of mind. Store away your unpainted models so they aren't in sight. It helps prevent the feeling of nothing getting down, which can help prevent losing enthusiasm. In the same mindset, find a place to show off what you have painted, keeps the enthusiasm up as you have results to see.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564271/6270071.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564271/6270071.page GMT Hobby sparks WIP on say instagram?

Would it help if I posted my WIP on say instagram? And thanks for the tips guys


That may help - however, make sure you only post it after a certain part is done, or after the entire mini is done - this will help 'forcing' you to complete the mini, because hey, you really want to post it!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564271/6270198.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564271/6270198.page GMT Hobby sparks

I could just be talking out of my butt though. Maybe try listening to podcasts while you paint, helps keep your mind busy while your hands work.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564271/6272636.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564271/6272636.page GMT
