Too late; she already knows! (Needs icon with trembling bottom lip.)

See, that\'s the advantage of having a gamer for a spouse. As long as the rent and ligths get paid, my hubby doesn\'t care what I buy or how many minis I have.

Of course, I can\'t go completely overboard, or I\'d be up to my eyeballs in PS2 disks (his).

I have even fewer than Caelithar - my entire oeuvre of 10 completed minis (12 if you count that 2 have familiars ;)) is up here on CMON. I hope to finish up my latest and bring that total up to a gigantic 11 any time now. (I think I\'m getting better, but I also seem to be getting slower, so I don\'t think I\'ll be counting them in the hundreds any time soon!)

Aside from that I have three minis painted by a friend 10 years ago, and three extremely chipped minis by unknown artist picked up by virtue of being GM. I hope to one day rehabilitate one or two of them and submit them to Zaphod\'s crappy mini or not.

I hear you, my rate of painting seems to be getting a lot slower. When I look back at the empire army I did a few years ago two things spring to mind

1) Hmmm, they look kinda crappy now
2) How the hell did I manage to paint all those guys?


But the real question for everyone is how many minis do you have unpainted.

Not as many as you\'d think, at the moment unpainted I have:

~30 silver helms
Good guys from Fellowsip of the ring boxed game
13 Riders of rohan and 24 mordor orcs
A tau army

Of those, it\'s only the first two that I have no plans to paint in the near future

I feel you, Kat. My Verocithrax is in the same shape. :(

Is the question how much unpainted lead you have? I thought it was how much was painted. I used to have one of those covered tubs full of blistered minis, but I\'ve been a painting fiend lately and made a bit of a dent in it.

Looks like time to buy more lead. lol

Painted and Unpainted

I have painted several hundred that are scattered around the world as commissions, and have only kept, maybe a dozen or so for myself! Now unpainted, that\'s the question. I keep my to-be-painted minis in plastic craft boxes with foam as cushions, and those hold about 20 minis each. I have about 10-12 of those boxes, plus a big pile of minis still in blisters, so.......somewhere around 300 unpainted ones. Oh wait, I forgot about my complete unpainted Eldar army, so 300+!

Too many to count any more ... way too many. I could probably survive a nuclear war in my hobby room and I still seem to find time to buy more... Very addicted. :)

You\'re doing him for Golden demon, right? I have a mate who is doing the same thing, but he\'s paintinghis as an ice dragon

Probably mid hundreds painted, kinda difficult to know as many are in the UK.

Unpainted, well, lets just say I could set up a GW shop on my own :eek: lol

Last time i counted which was about ten years ago, i had over 6000 minis.

My addiction has yet to subside and i estimate my collection to now be well over 9000 ( i dare not try counting them again).

Approximatly half of these are 6 and 15mm.

Ive painted about 800 28mm ,600 15mm, 1000 6mm and 12 large scale figs.

I started doing this at the age of 14 (20 years ago).
