Winding down the year purchase control went out the window with the release of Mark's Little Soldiers by Copplestone Castings. October saw additions to my collection of these and I expect November and December will see more. I'm still ahead by a decent amount just need to stay on top of painting to keep up.

Due to travel, autumn chores, and general dithering, I only painted 8 figures in October. Six of these are Mycenaeans, indicating that the curse that keeps me from ever completing anything with them may actually be weakening just a little bit.
Against this, the figures I ordered in August (!) and September, resolutely refuse to turn up. So, I bought nothing at all, though my wife would point out that a bunch of money has gone out the window. Everything will probably show up in November (Eeek!)

Year to Date
Bought (and received) 114
Painted 180
So, I am 66 figures on the positive side for the year

Good news and bad news. I got the new job I was hoping for, but this left very little time for painting as it started earlier than expected.

So zero/zero for October.

If I get the time I should be able to finish the Polish artillery in November but I think the lancers will have to wait.

Not a good month. Ebay had a few too many deals. But I did paint more than I thought I would
Bought= 331
painted=227
total for month= -104

YTD
Bought = 1457
Painted= 1486

So still positive but not looking for the next two months.
