This is a great topic for a video and super relaxing to boot. Every hobbyist has that pile of shame, that messy closet, and we all need to take inventory sooner or later. It's therapeutic, nostalgic, and can help to clear our minds and our backlogs. Great video Scott, hopefully this inspires others to follow suit!

You’ve got some GEMS in there, Scott. I like the idea of a Closet of Shame(tm) instead of just a pile or box. I packed mine into boxes and it means I never see them and I’m never reminded what I have and what I should think about painting next. Surprisingly inspiring!

We all have wardrobes (closets) of shame and piles of unfinished projects I expect. I am in the process of moving house and so have been packing all my stuff across 3 different hobbies (warhammer, model railways (plus scale modelling)and jewellery making) and keep coming across things I'd totally forgotten about. When the move is finished I expect I'll probably sell some of the model railway stuff (which is by far the biggest proportion) as I expect that I'll keep getting more miniatures over the coming years. I dropped out of the warhammer hobby for a good while and your videos were amongst those I came across that made me want to return to miniature painting again.

In my experience: keep all your unpainted and unfinished minis somewhere obvious. One, this gives one a good idea of unfinished projects, and two, (in my experience) will stop one from getting more and more (and more) minis which might remain untreated. As always, great vid Scott.

Might I suggest using the Jewelry boxes with all the dividers in them for beads as bit boxes. It allows very thorough sorting to bits and there’s tons of different sizes depending on what you wanna store in them. I use one for each army and game type. (I.e. space marines have one, SoB have one. Warmachine has one, etc.)

My tip for Scott and anyone else who would like it is set aside a small amount of time every day or week when you simply work on one item from your pile of shame and work on it till it is completed. Then move on to the next one. But the hard part is the self discipline in following this idea and schedule. Now I just need to follow my own advice myself.

Like hoarders and addicts the same phrases get tossed around; -I haven’t yet cracked it open, but I plan to. -But this kit is still ready for me whenever I come back. -Someday I still want to paint it. -Eventually sell or give away. -At some point. -I’m excited to paint it…at some point. -Some time soon…probably not soon.

Don't give away old minis! My biggest regret in life (yes, biggest) was giving away/selling all my minis, this was 30 years ago (I've bought a lot more since). Barely a month goes by where I don't think about all those old Ral Partha and Citadel minis (pre-slotta), and have often thought that if I had three wishes one would be to get those back.

I have one shame. A two model Warhammer 40k inquisitor set when they still made lead models. I painted both. The armoured model came out fairly well. I came back a few years ago and updated the shading and detail and was very happy. The other, an Ordo Malleus inquisitor was a disaster back in the late 80's. I decided to strip it in white spirit and completely forgot about it. The paint came off OK, but all the details all got lost as I left it in the stripper for a long, long time ( I also made the same mistake years later with a silver Tiffany ring that my wife gave me when I tried to clean it and forgot about it) The ring got sent off to a professional jeweller and was rescued, the miniature was destroyed. I recently managed to buy a replacement model from a certain famous reselling site. It is the exact model I destroyed so many years ago. When I begin painting it again, I hope to honour the original with a subtly shaded homage. The crimson robes will not defeat me this time!

Really cool and unexpected video, loved hearing the stories. Daft question, as such a skilled painter who could spent 100+ hours on a model, when you see a particular model among your collection and think 'I want to paint that', do you set yourself a target of what will satisfy you (e.g. 10 hour job) or do you just start and keep working until you feel its done enough? Thanks,

I’d love to hear the answer to this, too!
