  1.  So I opened the box not knowing what to expect. First thing I noticed was how each miniature was in its own little zip bag. I find that odd because none of the online reviews I saw mentioned that. I do see how the poses of a lot of the minis are too far forward like they are tripping and falling. 

     

    My first gripe is how soft the plastic/rubber is that these minis are made of. But I have to say that the sculpts are top notch!

     

    I am going to start with the minis primed the way that they come right out oF the box. I figure most of us will just start that way, and why risk losing detail over another basecoat of primer. 

     

    Step 1: cut a hole in the box, take your zombies out of the box  then make her open the box.

  2.  I really appreciate you guys commenting. Ive always like the flamboyant style myself, mainly because it demonstrates a level that most gamers and hobbyists can't paint to. Plus, when I worked for GW it was a requisite for the master class level. And the Golden Demon basically requires it to be competitive. 

     

    Across a battlefield the darker models look monochromatic to me, because I am almost completely color blind. But I have to say its going to be a lot faster to paint with the washes and stuff for the darker colors. 

     

    Anyone know a wash that doesn't completely darken a model?


  3.   I have been reading various forums on painting lately, because I haven't painted in a few years. It seems like most gamers prefer a dark and dirty look. I am of a different school of thought. I have always been one to paint in a very flamboyant style. The reasoning is that the flamboyant minis catch more attention from other gamers at tournaments, and frankly they look BA from across a 4 foot table. I think the details jump across the table and look the best. Either technique looks good close up. 

    I haven't started painting my Dust minis because I am trying to settle on a style first. 

     

    Here is the dark an washed look I see most people preferrin lately on some IG figs I painted today.
