The Box of Shame

All hobbyists have one. No, not the place you hide stuff you don't want found by parents/children/significant other. That place that you put the WIP projects that you aren't quite feeling, things that you try something new on and it doesn't quite work out how you intended so don't go any further and those projects you put aside when "ooh shiny" syndrome strikes and a new toy appears on the table.

The box/drawer/cupboard of shame. And I'm opening up mine for show and ridicule.

My box of shame doesn't actually have a dog in it.

My box of shame isn't actually all that big. Mainly due to most of the minis that could be in there being kept in relevant army boxes.


What's actually in the box? Other than "too much", here are some pictures to show some of what has fallen by the wayside from the table and into limbo.

Guild Ball goal tokens from the initial Kickstarter
This one is cheating a little - the Mortis Engine is too big to fit into the box of shame so it has it's own box next to the box of shame.


Lizardmen Bastiladon

Solar Array and skinks to go on the Bastiladon

More Lizardmen - Chameleon Skinks and the plastic Saurus Oldblood

High Elf Lion Chariot of Chrace

Phoenix Guard - the old metal ones :)

Dusk Raider Scouts. The ones on the right just need the bases finished. The ones on the left need a little more than that.

Dusk Raider Terminators in various stages of 'armlessness.

Shiny metallic marines! Soul Drinkers and a lone Deathwatch marine.

Astra Militarum test scheme - black fatigues and green armour.

More terminators - this time Imperial Fists to partner my Soul Drinkers

So, now that I've shown off the content of my box of shame, what's in yours?
