Too many projects?

Ooh, pretty distraction....

Time again for my weekly post...

Wow, in the last 2 weeks, I have had a 1000 more hits - what on earth is going on, it makes me feel even more guilty for not deliviering as much hobby stuff as I'd like. Again, it's been busy of late, with more silly things getting in the way of wargaming (damned Real Life), but also the superb British Silent Film Festival. On the plus side I have received a couple of commissions on the back of my latest animation snippets - which means more pocket money for miniatures but less time to work on them.

Cue generic stock image of jugglers...

There is a slight tinge of sadness in this post as I'm not going to be able to post regularly for a few weeks - as a (supposedly) mature student, exam season is now upon us and I must avoid the distracting lure of 28mm miniatures. Harder said than done, with the various projects I have swimming around: 40k (and its spin-offs), my Mordheim Morris-Men, WW2, Russo-Japanese War, a bit of ACW and the ever-present lure of Vietnam (focusing on battles *without* Americans) and Chechnya . I'm still waiting for the lottery win to purchase endless armies for the Wars of Louis Quatorze, the era and project that lurks just beyond the horizon like the damned temptress she is.

Despite this, I wll still be prioritising the 40k stuff followed by the WW2 stuff, with some new Spears of Mawdryn conversions just round the corner along with some scruffy Volksgrenadiers...

So here's a question for you all - how many projects are *too* many, how do you cope with the lure of new miniatures, periods, games etc.
