Hi all

Last months update

TMP link

Well September has flown by but have managed to be productive of sorts

BOUGHT
0 (yup thats right ZERO)!!!!!!

Painted
6mm -27 (MAHDIST cavalry)
28mm -22 (WWII Polish and Arab cavalry)

Monthly total = +22
Yearly total = +322

So for once I managed to paint more cavalry than infantry and removed more from the lead pile

Plan
1) Paint more Arab cavalry
2) Start WWII early Germans

Productive month. I sold a bunch of stuff, painted a bunch of stuff, and didn't buy very much.

Start: +86 for the year
Sold: 111 assorted figures, making a dent in the pile right there.
Bought: Kill Team from GW, 26 figures. I said I wouldn't buy any more until Black Friday but this caught my eye.
Painted:
19 Mice & Mystics figures
24 Zombiesmith War of Ashes Atronians and Vidaar.

The net: +199
Making progress, but there is still an enormous pile!

Poor production month for me with work, recreation and vacation all combined to keep painting in the background. I did order some figures and the Flint & Feather kickstarter should be arriving I won't be home until October so I'll count that as zero bought for the month. All numbers remain as they were.

Chgowiz01 Oct 2016 7:22 a.m. PST

Started the month with 226 figures in the lead pile.

Painted: 8
3 – 25mm Ral Partha Elven Swordsmen
2 – 25mm Ral Partha Elven Commanders
3 – 25mm Ral Partha Orc Troops

Bought:
0 – for the seventh month in a row!

Ended of the month with 218 figures in the pile.

For the year, I'm up by +174 figures.

This month was a prep month, with a lot of time spent preparing figures for the fall and winter season. It's hard to spray paint in Chicago in winter. I prepared over 60 Orcs, Goblins and Elven cavalry. More to do in October. I also prepared and primed some buildings.

I also took time to do the Commander figures. I finally painted faces that look good, using the Foundry method. So although my count was low, I'm very pleased with the results.

September was not a good painting month. I did manage to get some stuff based, and some painted but the last couple weeks have been spent on my terrain boards for my con game next week. Unfortunately there were some really good deals floating about so my total for the month will be ugly so here goes;

Painted:

20 – 28mm WW2 Germans

Sold:

50 – 15mm Teutonics

Bought:

24 – 20mm SCW
65 – 28mm WW2
79 – 20mm WW2
1 – 28mm Ruined Building
1 – 20mm Pz 38t
124 – 15mm MAW
24 – 28mm Teutonics
139 – 28mm Darkest Africa (for Congo)
156 – 28mm Zulus (couldn't resist that BTD sale)

This Month:

Painted/Sold – 70
Bought – 613
Total – 543

YTD
Amount forward – -1344
This month – -543
YTD – -1887

Yikes! Well I do have to start saving for a vacation in January and of course the holidays so I doubt I will be buying much. After this next week I will be done with the terrain boards and will have more time to paint again. Wish me luck!

I thought September would be superproductive, but no. Possibly lots of things lurching towards completion in October

Painted 6 – the lovely Perry Arab foot knights
Bought none (amazing in itself)

Congratulations all and good luck for October

15mm: 65/200

A strange month.

I bought two pack horses and a man to lead them. I painted 9 humans, a horse, a tank, and a snow monster. On the bright side, I painted more than I bought.

Bad month painted none.
