I have that too.

Mental trick: Box some (if not all) of it and store it out of sight. If you can only see the couple units you are working on you can see progress easier. Dont get any more out untill you are done.

I have almost all of my Cadians put away so I cant see the mountain of minis and the work they will require to be finished.

Sorry, I'm gonna have to pull out. Work's not conducive to a painting hobby at the mo, being all over the place as it is. Add to that the abombnable heat in my flat and the fact I've just lost my wallet (seems like a bloody cinema cleaner's filched it) means I can't do any painting. Sorry guys :(

I managed to do 8 Warriors and 1 khorne knight. I find it difficult to churn through one unit solidly so i have to skip between things to keep my interest in an army.

A bit late, but I might just hoin in. I still have this Mousillion themed bret army-using-empire-rules army to build.
Even if I don't make it, at the very least this will motivate me to push onward :p

Hey all! It's me, the guy that held everything up. Sadly, even with holding everything up, I fell short of the mark. There's still a few more colors that I want to finish, and of course basing to do.

I didn't count on a fire while at sea; that sort of took precedence over just about everything else...

Anyway, I'd like to thank Dean and the other mods/admins that he conferred with for allowing me the extra time.

I'll finish up the knights and post pics soonest.
