What's Your Favorite Part of the Mini's Process?

I struck me this morning that my favorite part of the process with minis (besides playing the game with them) is the clean-up (trimming, filing, filling, sanding) stage.

I thought it might be fun to see what other FedCom'ers think.

You left off my favorite part: Collecting them!!! :D

No seriously, my favorite part of the process is kit-bashes and conversions. I like to build the variants that don't have minis available for them yet; i.e., the WYN ACX, the Klingon FD7, the Lyran Royal Tiger, etc.

I guess that goes along with clean-up? At least that's the way I'm voting.

I'd probably lean something similar, but most folks don't kit-bash and I wanted the survey to be generic.

I'm going to second Scoutdad's vote! I love getting my minis ready and making each one individual in some way if I can--spikes on the nacelles, extra phasers added via epoxy to make + and G variants, making a custom CX or DDX (got the DGX and FFXs on the table now).
