One month to go until the end of the year. December is often filled with sales, receiving miniatures as gifts and other ways to have a dent put into what we've painted throughout the year. Not a bad thing. So let's see where we stand. last month TMP link The Mark's Little Soldiers project continues. I used colored primer to speed up the process and found it worked well. Ordered another batch of figures and am waiting for them to arrive. Finished off the Ral Partha figures that had been languishing for years. A productive month. Bought – 0 Painted – 63 (8 ARVN Empress Miniatures 28mm, 19 Mark's Little Soldiers 30mm, 28 Ral Partha Pathans 25mm) Month – +63 YTD bought – 130 painted –293 net – +163 |

Got to agree with Dan, the month of December will be bad for the purchases. I made my yearly order from Old Glory and my family by quite a few figures for Christmas. Also I am busy painting for others, so not much time for own stuff( btu that does pay for my purchases). Monthly numbers Bought = 30 ( not bad) Painted= 104 total= 74 to the good YTD Bought= 1519 Painted= 1590 Total= 71 to the good

Two orders dating back to August that I had almost written off turned up, plus I bought my first Foundry order in I don't know how many years. Result, I added 97 figures to my collection. On the bright side, I energetically painted figures, 44 of them! Most are Pathans for Northwest Frontier games, though they may well become Afghans and sent off to the northern border to repel a Soviet attempt to take over Afghanistan in the 1920s. There were also a couple Mycenaean Greeks, some fantasy figures, and a giant worm creature from outer space. So, for November, 97 figures purchased, 44 painted. YTD, I am still in positive country: 211 figures purchased, and 224 painted, so I'm still 13 figures ahead for the year. Like ecaminis and FusilierDan, I'm looking at December with its sales, and thinking this will probably be my first negative year since 2018. Grelber |

Zero/zero again this month. This working malarkey seems bad for my productivity! So still on +831,which is pretty good for the year. If I get the chance I should be able to finish off those Polish artillery in December, surely? |
