I'll do what I did for 3 - just buy the stuff I think is really super-cool and cringe at my lack of an airbrush.

A passable airbrush setup costs about as much as a semi-loaded out boner pledge. Just sayin

I don't have room for a proper spray booth anywhere and I'm not spraying indoors without one. Both I and my wife have iffy lungs.

Bone zone. Got my Wave 1 shipment today.

It's one thing to see the previews of some of these next to Sir Forscale, but in person, these are just massive. Not just Ma'aldraakor, but T'Raukzul, the Purple Worm, the Froghemoth are big rear end miniatures. T'Raukzul is practically a statue like Ma'aldraakor.




I'm assuming they didn't come int he box labelled 'contents: Sledge Hammer'?

I'm now super hype for Tiamat, but I need to get some practice airbrushing dragons before I attempt her I think. I don't wanna gently caress it up.

Results vary, although you could attribute that to washing laziness if you like. Don't thin the base coat. Personally I prime because the result seems more durable that way (also I have been fooling around with zenithal and preshading lately). I airbrush but the Reaper forum favorite is brushing on Reaper's brown liner.

In case you have money left after those Dwarven Forge fuckers went through your pockets, the Bones 4 Kickstarter begins August 1.

:tviv: MalDrakar is enormous.

I need to paint some of my giant Bones. Maldrakar, Dagon, and Nathavarr are high on the list, and I may well end up selling off large chunks of my pile of unpainted plastic because I'm not playing D&D any more and I'll just never get round to using it.

I bought much of what i bought with the expectation of getting a minis collection together for use in RPGs, but I'm now playing X-Wing almost exclusively and the Bones are taking up a lot of space.

Nothing.

Gawd there are some nice dragons in this one.

I will NOT buy more dragons to not paint.

What do people use the Chronoscope stuff for? I'm always tempted to get some modern/scifi stuff but I really don't know that I'd get a ton of use out of them.

I use mine for occupying a box in the bottom of my bookcase :(

Shadowrun would probably work for some of them as well. Apocalypse World too, not that that's especially minis-heavy.

It's no exaggeration: you genuinely don't need to prime them. Laying down a solid layer of colour so you can see the detail helps, but primer is unnecessary as long as your base coat isn't too thin.
