End of year tally
« on: December 21, 2017, 10:37:18 AM »
Well I've packed my brushes away for the year. Unlike most people I unfortunately have to work nearly all of the festive period.
I've been keeping a list of everything I've painted this year. It's the first time I've done this and I've been pleasantly surprised by the results...
301 miniatures and pieces of terrain finished in the 12 months.
Wondered if anyone else also kept a tally and were willing to share their numbers?

Look at you industrious lot, you...  :P

I managed to paint a grand total of 58 miniatures this year, even though I had set myself a goal of 100. I might still have some days off between Christmas and New Year, with the wife and little one off to her sister's, so perhaps I can still lift my output up a tad before the books close.

I painted 76 last year, so I thought I might be able to pull it off, but alas; it was not to be. Apparently, real-life 2017 was a very busy one... ::)

Still; I'll be setting my goal for 2018 at 100 again :D
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Is there some sort of conversion rate for 15mm to 28mm?  :D

I've done a lot of 15mm (well, for me). I'm going to have to root around and see if I can come up with a total. Come to that, I'm going to have to see if I can remember what I've painted this year in the first place!

I'm possibly in the low 50s for figures. I've been painting all year, so looking back on it, it feels like I should have done more :(

I built some scenery, then left it sitting for months and I'm only now starting to paint it.

I generally make plans around this time of year for what I want to achieve next year, so it'll be interesting to see what transpires. I've never actually thought about aiming for a total before, so I may give that a try...

But yeah, looking back, I can't help but feel there should be more to show for the amount of time and effort expended ???

I'm on (roughly) 310 and counting. As ever, I've got loads of half-finished ones littering various drawers, so a little push over the holidays might boost that number significantly.

Yes, there's that. Should I be able to finish everything I started this year, I might even approach my goal... ::)

I thought I'd done a lot, maybe not so many though after all (it felt like a lot!)

15mm: 140 infantry, 37 cavalry, 2 guns & crew, 1 giant, 1 bear rider and 1 stag rider

28mm: 61 infantry, 12 cavalry, 3 wagons, 3 pack mules

Terrain: 3x20mm buildings, 3xsmall 15mm tombs, Maybe 15 trees of various sizes

I feel sure there must be more, but maybe not. Some of the 15mm were a real slog. Still, the plus side is I actually finished a project too.

No idea....

I think that I have been more productive this year than in the past with miniatures, but the scenery has dropped off to virtually nowt.
Nowhere near as much some of you, though!
 :o :o

Gonna have to go and start counting now.

I would encourage anyone to keep a list. It's quite nice looking back and thinking 'ooh I forgot I painted those this year.'

That sounds like a plan as I reckon it may prove quite surprising looking back at the end of the year.

I think I'm going to start recording what I have done and making plans in advance, because looking back I think I painted 15 miniatures completely this year  :(.  Will probably start doing things as proper projects as well.
