Dude, hang onto those - they are absolutely irreplaceable! And probably quite valuable too. But thanks anyway

Heck I strip them as I am doing the paint on them, over and over, just do not seem to get one right the first at least it is rare.

I do not like to re read books either kind of like that feeling.
I think if I have a hankering to do another I would buy another. most I paint are sold or given away so there is not to much chance to anyway.

Nah!

There are always new and frequently better mini\'s coming out...

I have a small collection of Ral Partha DnD figs I painted with enamels 20 years ago...I still smile...

Maybe I\'ll just work on being better...

I will strip a mini, If I think it needs to be re-done.

I too, do not strip old minis. Mainly because in the distant future, when I have ascended to the Valhalla of the Nerds. Those who come after will study my work and make pithy museum conversation. \"This is from his blue sword period\" \"And here is an example of how he experimented with crappy basing\" \"Note the absolute absence of highlighting which was a response to his critics....\"

Do i regret any miniature i painted? Every single bloody one, I often wonder whats keeping me in this hobby! As to whether i strip them, nah, im far too disorganised and lazy for that, I prefer to hide the offending model in a draw pretend it never happened and with the wonders of a teens disposable income buy another when i feel i can do it justice- repeat as nessercary lol
