Now I've just read Superman Is A Douche... and it also got me thinking (must be that time of the year), how do you motivate your self into painting, modelling etc?
I can spend all day thinking 'when i get home, I'm going to paint my Wraithlord' and I have all the best intentions in the world of doing it, until I sit down to do it, then for some stupid reason I can't seem to be bothered!
Take for example my High Elf army, I've been collecting this army since I first started playing Warhammer (that's over 20 years) and what have I painted from it? The cloak of a mage and the armour of 4 horsemen, that's it, why? because i cant be bothered!
Its not that I can't paint, I can (I think), but just find any motivation.
Any ideas?
I always find chatting to the guys at GW helps. Having people to riff off of and seeing other well-painted minatures inspires me to get going. Tournaments are the same.
ReplyDeleteI'm a social modeller (too many years working for GW I think...) so having people to chat to helps, this is often why you'll see me modelling at the club rather than playing. What I also find helps is having a project that I'm really into (like Outpost XIII). You should join me at one of my Wednesday night sessions Gaz :)
