How big is your SG lead mountain?

[Stuart Bleything]

Me too, a man can't get by without a few gobbos to paint up! 

[amnar]

The kicker is that the better you get at painting, the longer it takes to get shit done.... When I was younger I'd churn out armies no problem. Does that 6mm model really need two highlights? I can't bring myself to dumb my paintjobs down...

Got 20kilos of unpainted metal still to go 

[Stormwind]

Before I joined up there was a "Tale of Painters" or something with a similar thing, encouraging people to paint a unit a month - perhaps we should be trying to encourage each other that way

[Stuart Bleything]

my goodness 20kilos . thats a lot .

I think even if i  ( got painted ) painted 15 units a month it would take a very long time to get through it , partly because i keep adding units and armies .

must stop pressing buy now , bidding on you know where .

But the good news is that there is the beginnings and alot of interest in 10mm , for a while there i was getting a little worried .

now i'm smiling

I've got:

2k of high elves
2k of undead
My wip kislev force
Mordheim witch hunters
Escher gang

Then I've got the core gw stuff:

An ever expanding tau army
A large sisters of battle army
A large praetorian army (150 infantry models)
Ogre kingdoms army
Chaos dwarfs
And a horrendous amount of lotr stuff

I wish I could make more time to get it done but I'm too slow and my spare time is dominated by motorcycles :/

Having read the thread, I now realise that my pile of partly-painted and unpainted metal is perhaps not as bad as I had thought ...

3k Slaanesh Daemons/Chaos/Chaos Dwarves (work in progress)
3k Beastmen (unpainted)
3k Dogs of War/Araby - Marienburg (unpainted)
2k Empire - Nuln (unpainted)

But the good news is that I seem to have broken my Empire habit - although I can see a relapse coming.

[ruiza97]

Warmaster - 3k worth of Empire, HEs, Dwarfs, Lizardmen, Chaos, Daemons, Orcs and Goblins, Bretonnian, Tomb King, Vampire Count.  and 2k of Kislev to paint.

Epic - 6k Chaos Space Marines, Eldar, Lost and the Damned, and 3k of Tau.

I believe.

[Meraklis]

2K of High Elves painted
2K of Bretonnian (1K painted)
1K of Tomb Kings unpainted
2K of Araby unpainted
bits and pieces of Eureka Chaos Dwarves and currently trying to buy some Lizardmen and Dwarves...

[dicnar]

My problem is I always say to myself "I wait till I paint this model, when my painting skills are better because it's such a cool OOP piece."   

As for now i have
BFG:
- Large Chaos fleet, 30 cruisers and the same number of escorts, all of the battleships plus ordance.
- Huge corsair eldar fleet in various stages of painting, some forge world stuff i will not touch until i'm sure my painting wouldn't ruin it.
- Forge World Tau fleet - same here.
- Crafworld eldar one of each ship plus escorts.
- Also Tyranids plus some imperium, space marines and Adeptus mechanicus ships.
Necromunda - Escher gang and Scavvies
Mordheima - Skaven
Also i still go my Space hulk and Dreadfleet models unpainted.

Warmaster... let say... as big as the Misty Mountains

[kyussinchains]

Warmaster - 2.5k of dwarfs completely unpainted

Epic - ~8k imperial fists remaining, 4k of white scars, 4k of emperor's children, 4k of death guard, 4k of Saim-Hann, 12k of "craftworld eldar", 10k of orks, 15k of guard, 4k of titand

The ridiculous thing is that I had a fully painted 8k guard army which I swapped for an unpainted one.....
