When you realise you really have more than enough. I've made the decision that I'm not going to buy any more models for my chapter with the following exceptions:
- Enough vehicles to bring me up to a minimum of three of each type. Which I think means one vindicator, one whirlwind and two hunter / stalkers
- a couple of standard pattern land raiders (to be determined though, I'm not sure how many I have now...)
- characters to round out the command elements for each company. Which basically means a few chaplains. I should have enough captain models with all the masters of the chapter minis I have and I know I've got about six or seven librarians, but they aren't key to each company's command structure.
So it is now just a case of trying to get it all painted. Iv'e cleaned up the mold lines on the last thirty non character infantry I need, so will get to work on them when I get back home from my current holiday.
Certainly feels like a bit of a "light at the end of the tunnel" moment though. despite the fact that I still have about one hundred or so models to paint when you factor in all my vehicles, dreadnoughts and marines / characters.
