Re: Champions of Rokugan by Monolith

Looks pretty tasty. Do you know where their miniatures are made? There's nothing on the campaign page yet.

Re: Archon floats PPM for their next KS

I'm skeptical as well. The samples I've seen on YouTube etc. have looked great, but I wanna see how they come out when they are being mass produced - in other words, when they are in my hands. As well, as someone who does both, painting terrain is generally very different than painting miniatures. Y...

Re: Lord of the Rings - Mumak(il) statue

Games Workshop also offers one for a bit less, but you'll have to assemble and paint it:

Archon floats PPM for their next KS

In their backer survey for the next Dungeons and Lasers Kickstarter, one of the options that Archon inquired about was pre-painted miniatures, presumably using the same factory spray/injection method that they've started offering for their terrain. I have a bunch of that ordered for their Caverns, a...

Re: D&D Icons of the Realms: Adventures from Baldur's Gate (Set 35) and Baldur's Gate 3 - Characters Set

Yeah...frankly, these don't seem much lower quality than the Wizkids norm. Which is objectively poor - these are factory painted in batches, not lovingly painted by a hobbyist with hours to spend on each. I have a hundreds of Wizkids pre-painted miniatures in my collection, and the first thing I do ...

Re: Dwarven Forge Fans Thread

Those grass tiles look gorgeous, and so does that pond mat. It also looks like you'll be able to get grass tiles with dirt road . Those will be must-haves for me.

Re: Dwarven Forge Fans Thread

I have not used primer ever and I paint all my own but at the same time I use the actual Pokorny paints in most cases (just not for the little things). If you use Citadel paints heads up it can get tacky when it dries. I did my orginal Tudor with Citadel brown for the wood and man I do regret it no...

Re: Good and Cheap Trees and Foliage

Yack's got it covered for platic trees. However, if cheap is a priority, then model railroad trees are your best bet - they are exponentially less expensive. They are also much less detailed, and instead of sculpted leaves they use foam flocking, which eventually wears out and leaves bits everywhere...

Re: D&D Frameworks Wave 2b (or rather Wave 3)

I agree that Archon would be a huge upgrade for Frameworks, but I wouldn't assume that the prices would go down - if anything, they might go up. The official D&D license would still have to be accounted for, and I can;t imagine that Archon's operating costs are lower than for a plant in China.

Re: Dungeons & Lasers VII: Porthaven

And if I'm not mistaken it's all out of Poland so less likely to get messed up by tariffs? That's quite the assumption these days :lol: True, but Trump is treading somewhat cautiously around the EU, and Poland's government is more copacetic with his worldview than most, so I think you Americans hav...

Re: Dungeons & Lasers VII: Porthaven

That said...I kinda hope they redesign it. I'm not sure that it's actually bigger than the Reaper dragon turtle I already own. I think I'd like it better if it was just a massive head coming out of the water, with maybe a couple claws and hint of the shell.

Re: Dungeons & Lasers VII: Porthaven

Happy they threw the duck dragon at us, the ki-rin winning that vote pained me considering we've been teased with the duck dragon for years. Still in it for the boats. One pre painted and one ghost across 2 pledges. I don't need the minis but I can use and do want the scatter. Hoping for some more ...

Welp, I ...spit out the bullet? on this one. Cancelled pledge and went down to $1 just in case I want to back later but I think I convinced myself that I don't really need the ship and the pile of stretch goals will just sit there waiting for me to decide I want to start becoming a painter.

Re: Dungeons & Lasers VII: Porthaven

Yeah and it's super cool but they would need a VERY intense final acceleration to get to $2.5 million, so I think it's mostly there to shut up all the people on the message board. Hope I'm wrong, though, because a dragon turtle on that scale would be awesome!
