It is surprising how enjoyable making and painting terrain often is. I mostly leave it until after painting the figures, so it may be I am just feeling good about that and the terrain becomes the icing on the cake - so to speak.

A greater sense of accomplishment I suppose. I definitely prefer crafting terrain pieces to painting infantry.
