Just when I said I'd chill, I got a game of Maurice in today and now I need to paint a musket-era army. <br /><br />I have not forgot your discussion on tournaments. I still have a post rolling around in my head on that if I'd focus and write it.Montyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094254709103687259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-7108159196120154882012-06-10T15:54:54.101-05:002012-06-10T15:54:54.101-05:00Monty,

Anyone could slop paint on 500+ figs to get them done (not that I am judging, -as I have done it.) You have great attention to little details, and I like your use of color. I am thinking that you "out paint" my entire gaming group...<br /><br /><br />David S.The Dale Wardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12864432866927396245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-16179118495779150332012-05-31T16:58:31.764-05:002012-05-31T16:58:31.764-05:00Yes, I've seen your storage stuff...great stuf...Yes, I've seen your storage stuff...great stuff!<br /><br />And organizing is key dhc. When I'm not organized, I start, stop, read and move slowly. When I'm organized, I can move a lot of lead. For the Gauls, I put 100 shields out on the table and worked them in batches of 20 to improve efficiencies. And it worked!Montyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094254709103687259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-24297211888322173292012-05-29T07:37:49.611-05:002012-05-29T07:37:49.611-05:00Almost 600 minis so far... that is a fair number e...Almost 600 minis so far... that is a fair number even in 15mm! You can be proud of yourself! <br /><br />Organising the workplac is a must for us painters I think and that carousel is a good way to go. The only bad thing is... all those empty spaces make you want to fill them up. <br />I can remember as a small lad I used to have a lid from a shoe carton half filled with paints. When I moved from emanel paints (good think with all the fumes from them) to acrylics that became a tray from a toolbox, then a drawer box from IKEA, followed by a second drawer box and these days a custom build paint cart. I just hope I do nt have to modify a minivan one day ;-).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-9264319837183434572012-05-28T18:34:31.330-05:002012-05-28T18:34:31.330-05:00The carousel and space is pretty nice.

Despite some care and a rug under the table, stuff just keeps getting spilled on the carpet. <br /><br />So Phil, the attic might actually be a "safer" place to paint, as long as people don't mistake you for Quasimodo.Montyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094254709103687259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-10339041181986813532012-05-28T15:01:02.012-05:002012-05-28T15:01:02.012-05:00Neat looking table (unlike mine!). looks like a n...Neat looking table (unlike mine!). looks like a nice spot to paint at as well (I'm relegated to the crappy bedroom in the attic!)Broedershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18218127480258279732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-68673423028657495152012-05-28T11:45:37.697-05:002012-05-28T11:45:37.697-05:00Cor, that's a lot of figures!
