Well I am 2 months into the year so far. I have painted almost 100 figures so far & have a number of half finished projects on my table. I haven't bought anything new yet. I am trying to limit what I buy, having two little ones to take care of now keeps me from spending like I used to. I will still work at painting more than I buy. I already have a massive lead mountain to work through. There are some things I still want to add to my collection & some new stuff coming out this year I want to get, but I will be watching what I give in for.
