"The Pledge--August 2023" Topic

Since my painting was running ahead of my purchases for the year, I thought I'd do green stuff conversion work on figures in August before moving on to paint figures in whatever was left of the month.

Surprisingly, I got most of the conversions done, and still had time to paint 16 figures and a monster, while I only purchased 12 figures.

For the year, I have painted 207 figures and purchased 126.

As expected no completed figures this month. I did dodge a bullet by missing an opportunity to by some figures.
