Wouldn't Krylon spray paint be a good base then use something like Quick Shade from Army Painter?

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ Since you asked so nice sure we can have this discussion again. You can find the odd over the top sexist mini in the Reaper line, especially the Klockenbooty minis made by Werner Klocke. But even if some of these bother me, they are the exception and not the rule when it comes to Reaper female miniatures.  http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/klockenbooty/sku-down/50084#detail/IG_908_1

My only worry is that they sent my package and it got lost, so here I sit waiting for something that will never come.

My only wish is that I could still modify my pledge. I'd swap the clockwork dragon for the zombie or skeleton dragon in a heart beat. Not that I enjoy the waiting, but come on, it's miniatures not insulin!

What was your profit per Vampire set? I must say I'm amazed how you spun this into such a profitable venture. I wouldn't have thought enough people would be willing to buy them, but never underestimate the frenzy of nerds and their little plastic mans. (Also how did they miss the KS in the first place?)

Just in case there are more folks like Manifest who missed the KS then check out my SA Mart thread for Reaper Bones minis.

berzerkmonkey posted:Sat down last night to catalog everything and make sure my order wasn't missing any items - it took four hours and I'm still not done. It would have been nice if Reaper had somehow marked the little figure baggies with their stock numbers or something... Go to the Reaper KS page, take the Vampire mini picture list, open Photoshop (or equivalent), pick up a mini, find it on the list, cross it off by X-ing through its picture. It worked for me.

berzerkmonkey posted:After going through and counting everything, I think I have buyer's remorse. There is so much here that I will never, ever use... So sell the lot of it and make $100. Edit: Personally I'm sort of the same way; I got caught up in the hype and now have loads of minis I have no immediate use for. That said, between the paint, the figure case and the awesome Cthulhu model I can't get upset. I will also be using the 'not space marines' with my copy of space hulk that I bought sans-minis and lots of the fantsy figures will become Mordheim gangs. If nothing else use the minis as practice pieces that you can go hog wild on with new techniques and color pallets that you wouldn't risk on more expensive or beloved minis.

berzerkmonkey posted:Oh, I'm not upset, it's just that while I like some of the models (the not-Beholder is awesome) many of them don't do anything for me. I'd part out what I don't want, but it doesn't look like I'd get much of a return, judging by the stuff on Ebay. I'll most likely wind up keeping it all. I think the body was left out of the Bone casting as I didn't get one for my altar either.

I have so many minis from the first Bones KS, I don't know about getting the Core Set this time around. The Add-ons only option is nice as so far I really like the mouslings and the kraken. I'm just worried that once the 500 "options only" tier is filled they won't have any more. edit: Is that a big chunk of terrain they show in the video on the lower left?

homullus posted:The giants from Bones I (around the size of the big things in the expansion) are $8-10 retail, so yes, the expansion is already a good deal (the initial offering has 5 large minis plus smaller ones that will retail for less). It is cool if you (all, not just JerryLee) don't like those minis, but don't talk yourself into a bizarre alternate reality here: they're still a bargain at the price already (equivalent to the "$10 for two bigger things" +$ add-ons, easily less than retail), will be an even better bargain with the nigh-inevitable first expansion of the expansion, and will definitely be a good deal if it hits the second level. I don't mind stretch goals in general that are +$ add-ons. I don't like the +$50 expansions because they are just taking away from the core $100 level; even if I'm wrong it's what it feels like to me.

JackMann posted:Problem is, Indolent, that there's going to come a point where adding more minis to the core is going to start making them lose money. Don't think of this as taking away from the core level. It's just making sure that new minis are available. Like a mini Kickstarter within the Kickstarter. Yo dawg and so forth. While that is probably true, it still doesn't make me care. I want the core set to be outrageous, not just ok with a bunch of $50 upgrades that I can buy.
