How long does it take me to paint a team??? Couldn't you ask an easier question, like "What is the meaning of life?" or "What does a woman really want?"

I used to be able to sit and paint for hours at a time. Now, I can paint for about an hour and then I have to get up and do something else for awhile. I would guess that the 'overall' time to do a 30 man team would be around 30 hours. I'm thinking 5 minutes here, 5 minutes there. Basically, I paint one thing like the jersey on all the figures, then let them dry over night. Then I paint helmets and let dry, etc. By the time I'm finished, anywhere from a couple of weeks to a few months have gone by. But if I was to condense the time into only counting the time it actually took to paint, I would guess about an hour per figure. That's just a guess though.
