Re: Would you still love HS if you had to paint your own min
I never would have started if it was unpainted. But, now that I have it, I find that I am re-painting a lot of my figures. Painting them now wouldn't be a problem for me (they'd look horrible though ) but when I first saw the game, it would have been.

Re: Would you still love HS if you had to paint your own min
Storage would be an issue for me. I barely have the room for the terrain. If couldn't store painted minis like I do Heroscape figures, they get tossed into a plastic storage container without worry about ruining the paint job, then I wouldn't want them.
Then again, I don't play any other miniature game. |

Re: Would you still love HS if you had to paint your own min
I would have played it with my cousin the one time, and never bought a set. I don't have the time to do a good paint job nor do I have the skills necessary to do more than the occasional repaint.

Re: Would you still love HS if you had to paint your own min
I'd probably lose interest in Heroscape if the figures came unpainted. I've never been a hobbyist of that sort.
Though, if they were to release unpainted mini's with blank cards to encourage players to create customized characters, I would have no objection to that. Just so long as they continued doing the official, play-tested figures the same as they always have... |

Re: Would you still love HS if you had to paint your own min
If the figures were unpainted I'd never have considered trying heroscape in the first place. I highly dislike having to paint my own figures. I lack the patience and skill.
Long live Heroscape. |

Re: Would you still love HS if you had to paint your own min
No painting skill here either. I barely have time to play 'Scape let alone paint miniatures. (Although I have considered making a dice tower out of individually cast plaster bricks.) If they stopped painting figures tomorrow I might still buy them but I'd be playing with an all beige/white army.
If you like to paint your minis, you still can. I'm mean that's what customs are all about, right? My Maps & Scenarios | My HeroScape Fan Site | My Design Blog

I would still love them and have some sick paint schemes.

Re: Would you still love HS if you had to paint your own min
I'd switch to D&D minis.
Fortunately, it's very likely not going to happen. Posts by me are rare occasions. I mostly hang around other places these days, but I come here every once in a while. |

And they shifted the audience, remember? Now, it's a game sold in FLGS that have customers in their upper teens. The game was designed for eight year olds, but now, it is designed for teens. And as far as I know, we have no people younger than 10 in the Hangout. And, I would still buy the figures, but I'd play with them blank. |

Re: Would you still love HS if you had to paint your own min
I probably wouldn't have gotten into it. I have some crappily painted Eldar in my basement from when I was 12 and played Warhammer 40K. It was a neat hobby, but it's not as fun a game as Heroscape.

Re: Would you still love HS if you had to paint your own min
Definitely would not have even tried it. I've been a CCG player for most of my life. Heroscape filled that void with some that could be played out of the package with my friends and my 7 year old son, and it was collectible. The best of all worlds.
