Well done! I've lost track having painted a pile of zombies as a gift. |

I completed painting 15 Pathans and got a bunch of others started. Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) my order from The Foundry in faraway Nottinghamshire arrived on the 28th, instead of the 3rd or 5th of July, as I had expected, so I added 21 unpainted figures to my collection. While I fell behind by six figures for the month, this still leaves me ahead for the year:
161 painted
108 purchased
53 ahead for the year (not counting what I've sold off) Grelber |

Not much accomplished this month. Bought noe(yeah) but painted none.

For the month of June, I picked up the pace from May, although, I still did not get the amount painted that I wanted to, (my four figures a day falling horribly short).
May wasn't as bad as April, but my estimation of having 40-80 figures done over these two months fell laughably short.
This month saw more "real world" issues including three deaths of people I know.
And I ended up breaking my six month record of not purchasing figures. So for the month of June:
Bought: 1 (Reaper Dungeon Dweller Male Fighter in Armor)
Painted: 20 Fantasy:18:
* Greater and Lesser Medusa
* Four male villagers
* Three wild hogs
* A succubus
* A griffon
* A minotaur
* Three Sleestack
* A Water Weird
* A troll
* A large frog Pulp/Horror: 2 (Asian Girl with Umbrella, and Old Lady with her cat) So YTD total:
Bought: 1
Painted: 121 Net: +120 These are numbers that I like. But next year Reaper Bones KS VI is arriving… |
