Imperial guard army project

Journal Entry: Sun Apr 27, 2008, 12:43 PM
About 2 years and 3 months ago I started a huge painting project.
I am trying to paint a 1500 point Imperial guard army. It means that army will have 80-90 infantry soldiers (guardsmen, veterans, command squads etc.), 4-5 vehicles (sentinels, leman russ, Basilisk etc.). So far I have painted 21 infantry soldiers and 2 vehicles so only about 25% of my army is painted.
My problem isn't that I am lazy painter. I am trying to complete two other painting projects at a same time (Blood bowl team and wolfen pack). But the biggest problem is that I spend way too much time at painting every single miniature. I always use 4-5 hours per guardsman, 6+ hours at every officer and sergeant and 20+ hours at every vehicle. It means that complete army will take about 480 hours to paint. It's 2 weeks and 6 days.
It looks like I still have a lot painting to do.

Soon I have completed Basilisk tank. I will put pictures from it and from all my completed imperial guard miniatures to my gallery when I have a camera.

Kiitos kehuista :D

Ei minua oikeastaan voi warhammeristiksi kutsua, koska en enää nykyään pelaa paljoa warhammeria. Sen sijaan pelaan paljon muita miniatyyri pelejä, kuten esim Confrontationia.

"Another fantastic person is the famous GearOtter. Check her out on deviantart.com, her art sucks dirt, but she has a posse almost as great as my own, a bunch of friends who suck up to her and get her page views. Go geary."
