Re: Painted Miniature counts
I do love CMON minis. I wish I could get some of the games to the table more though. Rising suns minis are insane cool but it requires at least 3 players to play. I got the kickstarter all in for minis. When I have that many people over they just want to play something they know that I dont have to teach them. I have the retail bloodrage and also ks the new ankh all in but not sure how often they will get played due to all the other stuff I have available to play. Im a fan of ancient mythologies though so I couldnt pass on all the cool japanese, norse, and egyptian models they have. After posting my new count I painted a custom ratchet and clank 3d print and started painting some axegrinders of burning forge that just came off my resin printer. 4 squads of those primed and getting them painted. Resin is so nice to paint compared to fdm prints. Ill probably have those done this evening after work. Im taking a small break from painting zombicide minis. Cleansing the palette so I can go in and paint the last zcide modern box and the survivors from the angry neighbors box. Those starwars legion mandalorian resin prints were super fun to paint. I tried using a magnifying glass years ago. I didnt care much for it.

Re: Painted Miniature counts
I really wanted Rising Sun since I'm a sucker for japanese mythology and samurai and such, but I have a pretty hard rule that I only buy games that can be played 2 player. My game group is too inconsistent and my wife plays with me at least.
But this last year I've barely played anything since our second kid born last year is a huge handful. |

Re: Painted Miniature counts
Death May Die looks worth it just for the minis. I love the Lovecraftian theme, descent into madness and tentacle monsters is very cool. I like the look of the minis in Cthulu Wars but it seems like a big price tag for what the game actually is, the minis are great in that too though.
I had a magnifying glass with a clamp which was nice but all of the minis I have done recently haven't required one (I just finished a DnD Feral troll which is the same sculpt as the Heroscape one). What do you use for a light source? I am thinking about getting one of those white-light bar lights that clamp onto your table since the lighting in our apartment is trash. |

Re: Painted Miniature counts
Everything I hear about Cthulhu Wars says it's a really great game, but you need 3+ players and if you want to collect everything it's approximately 6 million dollars. I'm a sucker for anything Lovecraft though.
I use a normal desk lamp, but I have a fancy-ish light bulb. Half the time I paint at work on my lunch breaks since time at home is at a premium, and I don't use anything aside from room lights there. |

Re: Painted Miniature counts
I used to use a standard desk lamp but installed a big led shop light above my solo/coop game table/painting table in my mancave. Its 5000 lumens of magnificence. It hangs from the ceiling and can be found at walmart for about 20 bucks.

Re: Painted Miniature counts
Oh wow maybe I need to check that out, our living room in our apartment is where I paint and there isn't any overhead lighting so I only paint during choice hours where the light coming in through the window is the best.

Re: Painted Miniature counts
That light looks nice. I just ordered an LED bar light with a table clamp but if I might get that as well since we are sick of having to light the apartment with lamps and candles, although it is a nice atmosphere for late night movie watching.
In other news, I am starting three DnD hunting drakes today and Yochlol, handmaiden to Lolth. Yochlol is a gross Lovecraftian-esque blob monster that will be a great chance to practice some wet blending as it is something I don't have a whole lot of experience in. |

skeleton 1.jpg So this is my first attempt at posting pictures here but hopefully my DnD skeletons will show up, I did three of them all the same way. Edit: I don't think I did it right but I'm not sure why. Last edited by Figure; October 9th, 2020 at 10:26 PM. |

Re: Painted Miniature counts
Got some more painting done. Finished up 16 Axegrinders of Burning Forge that I printed off of my Resin Printer, a print of Ratchet and Clank, and 7 more droids for Star Wars Legion. 1707+24=1731 Needed a small break from zombies.
