Thanks, I hope to finish these this week or the next.

A truly frightening collection of excess.

It is a tad bit over the top no doubt but I can't help myself from collecting.

[MrDWhitey]

What "true hobbyist" can stop collecting? Bravo.

If you've earned the cash, why not?

If you've earned the cash, why not?

My problem is not money, it is buying 100% and painting 10%, buying 100% and painting 10%, repeat.

I'm afraid to show my unpainted IG collection.

Of course with steveb here, my excess is mild. Thanks steveb.

Sounds very very familiar...

shadowlord, you are way too organised. steveb

Oh, I know you've no problem with money, which is my point. Buying models you don't end up painting isn't much different from buying a beer you end up just pissing out a few hours later. Or anything else really. You've got the means, so why not collect as you do? It's all good clean fun after all.

Your bits collection is awesome, a lesser hobbyist could get lost in there.

NO, because...

I would have done the same with my IG if it hadn't been for all those tanks.

Hard to fit in good boxes they are.

[Midaski]

I'm impressed by the bits boxes Shadowlord. You must have some (?) German blood in you .............

After several years of buying all sorts of odd compartment type storage items from motorist shops or DIY stores, I have started using these:

which look very similar to yours - but they aren't khornate coloured ......................

I am using the two-tiered ones and have 3 so far, but I still have my old compartment stuff and a lot on sprues.
