When I finished painting the last miniatures of my Kings of War army, after collecting it for some 20 or so years, I was just relieved. I felt freedom. Soon after, gave it all away. Now the kids have started playing warhammer 40k, so I have started a small collection of minis for myself that I paint along with the kids, when they paint their minis. They have hoards of unpainted minis to go through. Myself, I will never again collect a single miniature unless it is instantly getting painted, so my space wolf army grows very slowly, but will always only contain painted miniatures.

To me, it's a pile of happiness. Even models that are unpainted or unbuilt still bring joy. I like looking at the box art, looking through the bitz, imagining what I might do with them. I equally enjoy watching others go through their piles in videos like this, seeing models and kits that I maybe have never seen before, or just marveling at all that glorious plastic and metal.

[@fishsmiddy1048]

Well Brent, I’ve been watching your videos for about a year now and you’ve done it. You convinced me to jump from ww2 models into the fantasy world.

Excellent content as always, Brent. I have the same arrangement of plastic storage boxes full of ziplock baggies... and the same issue with an expanding pile of shame. It hasn't been growing, but it also hasn't been shrinking these past few years. It's actually a nice idea to go through the boxes to see if there's something cool that "sparks joy" to paint or if there's something cool that's been forgotten about. I hope to follow your example with such a delve someday soon. Anyways - always good to see new content from you. Stay safe and healthy and keep it up!
