You say two strikes but how many minis have you done in how many days?
(I could go back through the thread but its easier to ask)

I bet with your extras you are still on schedule really. Keep 'em coming.

Yeah you are being too hard on yourself.

You started on 2 July its now the 10 July and you have completed 12 minis seems to me thats 12 minis in 9 days  :o. You should take back your second strike. :)

Well I didn't finish a miniature tonight.  I got about half done with one but I didn't finish it.  So I've got 12 minis done in 10 days and it does seem like a shame just to drop the project so I'm not going to count the last strike unless my number of finished minis is less than the number of days that have passed.  For instance if on Day 16 I have only 15 minis done then I'm counting myself out.  I hate to change the rules but this doesn't let me off the hook compleatly.

You were far too tough on yourself to begin with. o_o

Remember it's a hobby and we are supposed to enjoy it :D

If we forget that it becomes a chore and that can't be good.

I like what you are doing good luck.

Well it's the 13th of the month and I've just finished the 13th miniature.  It's the last of my Alliance Militia which is cool.  I was starting to get tired of them.  I was going to try and finish up my fed squad but they have very similar colors so I'm just going to do up some PCs and random NPCs over the next week.  I need a break from using the same six pots of paint over and over again. 



I may be able to get more done today and if so I'll post them later but my studio is trashed and I need to mow the lawn so I'm not making any promises.

I know what you're talking about. Even though tan is a rather forgiving colour and and thus gives you rapid results, painting 50 or so sikhs and gurkhas with officers becomes a bit of a chore.

Well I managed to get one done today.  I was pretty tired from work and I wasn't sure if I'd be able to finish one.  This is from Copplestone Castings again.  One of the Babes with Guns from the Future Wars line.

She's fantastic - I love the hair and black leather effect! One of your best figures so far, so it appears you're certainly not getting jaded yet.

Keep it going, fella, these figures are lovely!

I just finished tonights litterally at 11:59 on my clock.  I'm still clear coating the mini and I won't be able to post it until later but I'm still on target even if only just barely.
