This brings the YTD numbers to
Net Growth: +435
Painted: 263

435 growth/244 days = 1.783 minis per day.
263 painted/435 bought = 60.5% of growth painted.

Which is behind the purchase goal (<1.5 per day) but still barely ahead of the painting goal (>50% painted). Both are improved from last month, however.

Existing project progress was limited. Warmachine and Battletech projects moved slowly forward, while nothing else moved.

The 15mm WAB project WILL continue to dominate the "working on" numbers next month, as I have 100+ in progress now.

The Flea Market sell off went reasonably well, but I may have unintentionally skunked one of my other projects in doing so. With going on two years of little to no progress on that particular project, selling off most of the waiting minis for it may be a good thing, but we'll see.

The convention and flea market rendered up a few purchases as well, but they are not fully inventoried and a few things may be heading to other people. As such, the purchases will be reported for September.
