The last of what has seemed to be a ton of wrap-up and round-up posts for February, it’s my monthly round-up for February 2018.
January’s count came to a total of 59 (there was a missing Plaguebearer!) so with a total of 54 models completed, February has almost been as productive in number terms, but I’ve got a couple of larger models in there as well. Still, it’s worth remembering that I’m totalling figures completed, not start-to-finish – though with 36 models start-to-finish, I’m way better than par there!
You know, it might be a bit of fun to have previous months’ layout underneath just-finished month as a visual guide.
113 models in two months? Holy shit! This is clearly my best output ever.
Very impressive both in terms of number and quality too.

Thanks mate. It was a more productive month than I’d expected!

Cheers Alex. I doubt I’ll be keeping this kind of pace all year, but my target is as always for the past few years 365 models minimum, so a few productive months gives me a bit of a lead for when I burn out 3/4 of the way through the year.

Quantity and quality – not something that many people can combine to this level! Do you not sleep?!

Not as well as I’d like to, unfortunately – but I find painting helps me relax, so it’s getting a lot of attention these days. 🙂

Aye, I sympathise completely, sometimes life just doesn’t stop kicking you. There’s something about sitting and painting that really calms the mind and clears the head though.

Yeah. I often find I get edgy if I can’t paint a little each day (except on days when I’m too tired to do any).

If you keep this pace there won’t be any minis left…

Most of those models only have the two. The Plaguebearer standards have a third limb, but that’s a tentacle, so I’m not sure it counts….?

I meant you. I’m assuming you have additional limbs. How else could you paint so many minis in a short month?!

The Plaguebearers, wolves and maggots were the only start-to-finish ones this month, and they’re pretty simple to do I found, so I was able to batch-paint them. The others were all already started.
My whole thing is about *finishing* models – doesn’t matter when they were started or how little work is left to complete them.
My challenges are often to make me think about how *this* model probably only needs 20 minutes of work to get it done and *that* model might need maybe an hour. Or two.
Others, like this Monster March from Swordmaster will need a bit more than that small amount of time but still very doable when you look at that Dracoliche and Bone Giant.

Oh yea, this is “Monster March”. If I need a break from Dwarves or have some free time, I should see if I have something to put together. Lately, the breaks have been terrain. Something that will end up on my blog at some point as I get back into the swing of things.

Remember, Blood Bowl’s big guys count as monsters, so you could always combine the two if need be…

If I don’t get over this Flu, I might just paint myself up. I feel like I would fit in with your Nurgle army quite easy!
