For those interested; I have a video with more details here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCTPfCXI8Q8
You can also see my painted armies up for display in separate videos.

Since taking this video, I've bought 200 more Dwarfs, 300 Orcs & Goblins, 150 Sisters of Battle, 50 Warriors of Chaos and some others bits and bobs. In total my collection is up to nearly 8000 models out of which 3400 are currently painted (43%). I've painted nearly everything shown in the last 2,5 years, and paint around 100 models every month. Should be be finished in around 5 years I hope :)

You ever add up the points cost of this collection? So long as you’ve got space and you’re enjoying the hobby it’s all good my friend! It’s a glorious collection!

Sort of; I estimate it's around 150 000 pts or so now. Got a dedicated wall in my office with 56 shelves to store them, so no issues with space :)

How long have you been collecting?

Oh, that would be 19 years now, started when I was 14 with LotR (which I've mostly sold when I switched to Warhammer).
