That's pretty nicely organised there, do you want a job in the workshop?!  We use gardening seed pots for all our spares, but they get battered very quickly as they're such a thin plastic.  We could do with something like you've got there, but cheaper than Really Useful!

The Really Useful boxes are good - but certainly can add up cost wise - which is how I justified a slimline 15 drawer metal Bisley metal filing cabinet (and it was on sale at Staples). I find that when the little baggies arrive from Pendraken Towers that I need to sort the chaps into units - even if it may be some time (OK, a long time) till they get painted. It seems a bit wrong to just dump the bags into a box and shut them away. At least by sorting them I feel that I have made a step towards getting a army together.

Working for PD would be counter productive - just how much of this lot is your fault already  >:(! Imagine what it would be like seeing shiny temptation every day  :'( :'( :'(

Sorry but, by my standards, not nearly enough lead :)

Recently sorted (for which read "fruitlessly shuffled") my lead and plastic mountain - covered my dining table twice over to a depth of 6" ... and I've bought more since  :-[

This is only the result of 10 years or so of acquisition, I only got back into gaming fairly recently, so have missed 10-15 years of buying compared to my contemporaries.

Good luck with that lot, Forbes  ;) :D

I've gone all minimalist this year (can't take pics cos it's in storage) - so in my "to-do" boxes:

- 10mm Napoleonic 1809 French army
- 10mm Napoleonic 1809 Austro-Hungarian army
- 28mm WW2 US airborne platoon
- 28mm WW2 Late war German platoon
- some (4-6?) 'vanity' 28mm figures just for painting's sake (eg Cap'n Jack Sparrow)

And...that's it. I must be terminal.  :d

Well organised but sizewise your unpainted pile can harly match mine  :d

We are talking 1.5 moving boxes (90*40*40 cm) of figures and 0.5 "materials" not to mention 4 KR carrying cases and a few DVD Style Boxes full of stuff....

Wife has forbidden any further expansion until the living quarters and the account balance have been expanded significantly :(
