I\'ve wanted to do a grand evlish village built on waterfalls. Mostly don\'t have the room to do it, but still want to.

Really? Will we need to be naked and oiled up for this? [/quote]
Why is it I always get involved in these kind of suggestions? I\'m a good girl, I am! lollollol

I\'ve got a Hello Kitty Chaos marine thing I\'ve got to make. Having a daughter really help in acquiring reference material. I\'ve even got a tank thingy (I don\'t play) to work up in the scheme as well.
I\'ve also put off trying to get some basing materials out into sunlight for an experiment/tutorial on what happens to some stuff over time. I figure that topic is nearly a year old by now.

That would make it a bit easier actually...

A pity the old Mithril figures are hard to get... they had pretty much every kind of bar patron imaginable as part of their Lord of the Rings range. Really. The Prancing Pony was a pretty happening place as far as Mithril were concerned.
One figure I never have got around to tackling is a great \"Arab Chieftain on camelback\" mini I got years ago. I think it\'s incredibly cool, but I\'m reluctant to have it turn into one of my unfinished projects and languish half-painted. I also briefly considered producing individual, painted player figures for my \"Zombies!\" game, but it\'d be quite expensive to do so and again... I\'d probably never finish them.

So the Graffitti tells us.
lolLike a whole lot of other people I have so many Ideas flitting around that will never even see the sketchpad never mind the light of day.
I\'m hoping to still be able to see well enough to paint when I retire cos that\'s about the only chance I\'ll get to see any of my ideas even get started. (12.5 years to go, Not that I\'m Counting or anything

For me it\'s a basic one that many gamers on here have actually accomplished but in all the years of playing mini games I have never actually accomplished. A fully painted army. I\'ve litterally been playing since 1983, though I did take a break for a few years, that\'s still 25 years of mini gaming without a single fully painted army.
I\'ve come close. My Middenhiemer Mordhiem Warband is fully painted, but I never did base them. My Space Marine (what Epic 40K was called, after it evolved from Adeptus Titanicus) army is also fully painted, but not based.
I have that problem mentioned a few times above, the not being able to finish anything. My latest painting project was for my curent D&D game. I needed 3 skeleton archers. I scoured the FLGS for minis and found nothing, I looked at eBay and didn\'t find much, eventually I settled on a Tomb Kings set that had bits for making archers. That same day I assembled three of them (man those Skeletons are a B* to put together) and primed them black. The next day I managed to get a base coat on the bone, add a Deluvian Mud Wash (love the new Washes), and base coat some of the details (bows, qivers, headdresses, straps). Overally for 2 days rushed work for a game they looked pretty damn good, especially next to the Prepainted D&D minis that represented most of the Characters in the game. Now that the games done (two weeks ago now) I have lost the impetus to finish these guys. They are so close to being done, but I\'ve lost interest in them, and moved on to a very small scenery project.

This would be the biggest list in the world for me as I seem to be constantly thinking of different ideas... I\'ve seen some big projects through... 12,000points of each chaos daemon power , same with each hordes power making a rather large chaos army.. I suppose the part of that project I never saw through was actually fielding it all in one game....
I have several ideas that have just been far outside my skill set but as I keep developing different things I get nearer to doing them and hopefully at least one will see the light of day at games day next year....
so despite having a million and one things In mind I can\'t really call any of them never done until the day I stop painting and when I WANT to do something I set my sights and do the bugger. ....:beer:
I know I will never paint every single model I own.. ever.but that doesn\'t count as a project I WANT to do...because we all know if you run out of unpainted minis you die...honestly....it\'s true:twisted:
