Imagine your embarrassment when you have the boss over for dinner, you're showing off your fantasy miniature slave auction, and their spouse asks about the certificate of authenticity.

I'm with you, I decided a while ago this was my mini painting thread, for better or worse. This thread is usually so much more relatable, while occasionally being blown out by something either incredible or abhorrent. The main painting thread works at a level of quality that I've never seen in person.

On some level though, you have to admire the purity of it. Most of these creeps will try to give themselves cover in some fashion. Maybe the barest of bare coverings, or one or two male slaves (probably clothed) so they can can claim it's "equal opportunity". But here, nope, it's all clearly Gor fetish fantasy. No dancing around, just a big neon sign saying "DO NOT LEAVE SCULPTOR ALONE WITH WOMEN OR PROBABLY ANYONE OR ANYTHING ELSE".

The fact that the toe nails aren't painted and the high level of gloss in the black paint on the upper talons leads me to believe that demon wears black finger nail polish. So then the lore in my head is it's not even a threatening pose, demon-dude's just showing off his bomb-rear end painted talons.

I didn't realize it until you pointed it out, but that's because they're spray painting the whole thing red and painting (some) of the other details after the fact.

I believe it's for stuff like model cars and planes where you want a smooth, shiny coat. Not that I've ever used it.

It provides a very thin and tough finish. It's great if your model is going to be handled a lot - ie RC models, gundams

Some effects like chrome can only be achieved with enamels. Even the best acrylic chromes are a pale imitation in this regard.

Lastly you have enamel washes which are like oil washes - they clean up with a different solvent so you can wash and clean over acrylics without damaging the underlayer.

Enamels are absolutely less beginner friendly in all respects compared to acrylics (toxic, doesn't clean or dilute with water) so I don't think selling em to kids is in any way a good idea.

$14.95. The minis themselves usually come in two-packs for between $6-8 depending on the mini (and come pre-primed), so they're charing about 4x the cost of the primed figure for ~10 minutes of their time. The big figures were more like $25 and selling for a flat $50.

I started out painting my Hero Quest minis with enamels, because my mom had a bunch of the little metal Humbrol pots and some brushes, and I was a kid with very little money, a mid-80s book on mini painting and no local game stores.

According to the book, acrylics were inferior to enamels in every way, so I stuck with enamels for a while until I tried the hexagonal Citadel paints at a friend's house and was all like "they look great, you just clean the brushes with water, and you don't get dizzy from turpentine fumes? Whaaat?"

I found some of the minis, this is one of the first I ever painted* and an identical mini I'm finishing up right now. 12 year old me was not very good at this whole coverage thing.

* I think the very first few were some orcs and goblins, obvs.

(Also LOL at green grass bases for dungeon-themed minis)
