Painted Miniature counts

[TREX]

I thought up a fun thread Idea. Ive been custom painting old miniatures and completely painting up tons of new miniatures. I hit a milestone for the year so far today. I just finished painting my 900th miniature in this year alone. So I got to thinking how fun it would be to do an all time painted miniature count thread. The figures must have been painted by you and they need to be more than primed and/or given a wash. This is not counting terrain pieces, just character minis. This year has been huge for me painting minis. Not because of Corona virus, just my general bad health keeping me from doing my more active hobbies. Ill be keeping a tally in the second post. Site members will be listed by figure count in the second post by greatest to fewer numbers. When you want to add your starting number post it below and share what you've been working at. Same for if you want to "update" your number. Share what you have got your paint brush into. This should be fun. I cant wait to hear what everyone is working on.

Here are the numbers:
1. Trex-1809
2. The_X_Marker-259
3. Ninja Status 113
4. Pumpkin_King 80
5. Lord_Pyre-6 for 2021. 68 for placeholder
6. Brunaks-45
7. TheAverageFan-12
8. Flameslayer93-2

My total count is as follows:
70 star wars Imperial assault
302 repainted, cloned, and/or 3d printed HS figures not counting any prizes or the like that Ive made
27 Arena of the planeswalkers
87 figures for Frostgrave
22 reptisaurians from massive darkness
250 rum and bones
63 walking dead all out war
637 starwars legion legit and 3d printed models
3 zombicide black plague bosses
254 modern zombicide miniatures
24 more models 10/11/2020
9 models 11-8-20
29 SW Legion Models done by 12-31-2020
Im currently working my way through painting all my modern zombicide stuff and plan to run an ongoing campaign of all the seasons of it once Im done painting it. I plan to add zombicide 2.0 to the que later on when it arrives through kickstarter.
10 more models Jan 2021
30 more models 2-3-2021
Total
1809, roughly. It could very well be a good 200 more than this but those arent at my place anymore. Cant wait to hear what everyones working on.

If full repaints count, I've done 2.

I'll have to count, between Freeblades, ArcWorlde, and WarMachine, I think I barely scratch 200. I'm not a very fast painter.

That still counts. Did you have fun painting them? I can only speedpaint like crazy because of tips and tricks Ive learned over the years. I get great results with my current speedpainting techniques so Ive left some of my more professional techniques behind to gain quantity. I have a massive pile of shame, mainly thanks to kickstarter deals but have decided this year that I just need to get it done. Ive found it much more fun to get to paint your characters how you want rather than them be pre done.

Wowza that's a lot of minis! I don't have as much time as I wish I did to paint, but I'm about to finish a 40-mini commission. Before that I've been working on Death May Die minis, and did like 10 or so of them. I'm pretty slow and meticulous though.

I look forward to your update. I think Ive only heard of warmachine out of those 3. Ive still got to finish painting Modern zombicide, Fantasy Zombicide, Massive Darkness x2, all four factions of runewars, bloodrage, rising sun, Arena of the Planeswalkers x2, Tmnt shadows of the past, 3 armies for wrath of kings, darksouls, the rest of my Star Wars Imperial Assault, 3 more crews of rum and bones pirates with a few merc boxes, fallout starter set, some frostgrave soldiers and snakemen, and a couple boxes of 3d prints. Most of the mentioned games above are kickstarters with all addons. In short. I have to paint faster. There isnt a choice in the matter.

Yeah. Im a bit excessive in whatever hobbies I get into. I dont generally do commissions, but like I said before Ive painted alot of stuff Ive given away. What game is the commission for? My biggest game I decided to put the brakes on for a minute getting new stuff for was Star Wars Legion. I have all four factions with enough units to run easily 12 players in a mini tournament. I went hog wild because Legion has awesome game mechanics and Im a Star Wars Junkie.
Ill update you at 50 minis.

It's for C3G figures. He's a big collector and has pretty much every figure we've designed aside from the repaints/mods, so he's filling out most of the rest of his collection.

Legion looks great, but my painting backlog is huge, I'm slow at it with busy life and kids, and I have 80 other games I don't play nearly as much as I want to so I definitely am trying to cut back on new ones.

I say as I'm waiting for like 4 kickstarter games.

Awesome. I havent done any C3G mods as of yet. I dont play enough scape as it is anymore. I stopped collecting C3G, C3V, and even HoSS. I have came up with various ways to keep scape interesting with my variant rulebook but there are too many other fantastic games to just play one exclusively. With my mountain of shame, Im also waiting for zombicide 2.0, Ankh gods of egypt, and Massive darkness 2.0. Until recently Ive been able to resist most kickstarters.

I just counted 218 completely painted minis for me, with another 18 just missing one or two colors to be considered done. I'm pretty sure I didn't miss anything.

I highly recommend looking into the other two. If nothing else, it gives you even more minis to paint!

ArcWorlde just had it's 2nd edition Kickstarted and it's a very simple but incredibly fun skirmish game. It has a custom feat system where you can pull off some crazy stuff. It's a great beer (or soda) and pretzels game where you can just throw around dice and have a ton of laughs. ArcWorlde miniatures are also completely hand sculpted by the very talented Alex Huntley, so each sculpt is full of character.

Freeblades is a very small but strong community and it's like playing a skirmish game and an RPG. The skills, stats, and abilities make it run very tight, while also providing a ton of options for thinking outside the box. The team is based in Kansas and they are very, very receptive to feedback and answer questions really quickly on their Facebook page. Two members of the community that have stood out have also been immortalized into the game through figures. I almost forgot, there is a pretty cool exploding dice mechanic, where rolling the highest value of a die results in rolling the die again and adding that to your total. You can roll a die as many times as you hit that maximum, so a d4 can end up rolling a total of 20+. There's a record being kept of exploding dice on the site.

I also painted some samurai for Osprey Publishing's Ronin, though I can't really recommend it as a good game. Just a good way to waste time without thinking too much.
