I paint – and in comparison to many, not so well – in order to play. But I can't tell you which I am "better" at.
FWIW I voted player. |

I rhink I am a better player but I spend way more time painting than playing |

Better at and spend more time painting – I like gaming but rated by wins/losses I would say painting wins out at something I am better at! |

I voted "better player" but I probably spend more time painting than playing. I have more fun playing however! Jim |

Other: my painting is well regarded, and my playing is also well regarded. Should be an option for equal recognition. Not everything is either/or. Cheers! |

Since my painting is dreadful then I guess player. But yeah, in painting years (of which this is one it seems) I paint more than I play. This has not been the best playing year of course – other than the opponents I can rustle up at home or solo gaming. |

In my own defense, I get a lot more practice painting. |

Personally, I was a painter before I was a gamer and for me gaming was in large part an excuse to buy and paint more miniatures. Even now, I never play tournaments and my casual games are as much an excuse to show off my painted miniatures as to paly. |
