So many started miniatures...
FINAL SCORE is 581+107=688
As my (not so good?) habit is, I quite often quickly paint up miniatures to be "battle field ready", but not quite finished. Then, as the end of the year approaches, I focus on finishing as many as I can. I never manage to finish all, that I've started, hence my painting tracking on this blog separates miniatures finished (started before this year) and miniatures painted from scratch.
Examples of my final rushes in recent years:
I always post my latest paintings in Instagram - my username is "wanhaherrat" (old sire T) - follow me there for latest updates! This blogpost contains first a summary of miniatures finished since summer and then I'll update more pictures, as I finish them before end of the year. First half of the year on my painting desk is reviewed here.
As I'm publishing this blogpost on 19th of December my count is:
- 19th of December: 468 painted from scratch and 83 finished
- 26th of December 491 painted from scratch and 83 finished (+23)
- 29th of December 515 painted from scratch and 83 finished (+24)
- 1st of January 581 painted from scratch and 107 finished (+90)

And the ones that got away!
As always, there were a bunch of minis that quite didn't get finished. Probably because my focus shifted to the next project and games lined up or maybe there was already enough of painted models to play with for that particular force. All together here's some XXX miniatures, that I started to paint during 2020 but didn't get around to finish. And there are some odd pieces, like the dwarf zeppelin has now been in painting for almost two years (my focus in Saga Age of Magic moved to Undead Legions (aka The Others9
What a fabulous array of beautifully painted figures. They are a joy to behold.
VastaaPoistaI was so pleased to read that you get figures to ~75% completion and then have to go back to finish them off. I do the same—although my finishing is not even half of your picture-quality results!

Thank you James for your kind words! I guess 32 years of painting has yielded some skill, even if I'm more an "army painter" than a one, that spends lots of time on single piece of art.
