[Bones Kickstarter #2 Discussion]

It's good to be back on the horse. Bad for my wallet, but good.

[Uh-oh (Deathsleet)]

My Deathsleet's fine.

It falls over a bit, but it's very close to balancing, I think a quick boil should fix it entirely.

[How do bones react to Superglue Debonder?]

Yeah, right now I'm scraping the glue off, it's working okay.

(I didn't join something by mistake, I used too much glue and it got onto parts of the model surface where I didn't want it. It's not too noticable though.)

[How do bones react to Superglue Debonder?]

Paint comes off of them in alcohol. Superglue seems pretty permanent though.

[How do bones react to Superglue Debonder?]

Interesting.

Someone suggested Simple Green. Does that remove superglue?

I'm going to assume "badly" because it's usually acetone-based, but has anyone tried it?

[What should I buy for Paintbrushes?]

I've got an LTPK brush and my 08550 brushes that are fine for drybrushing/crevaces, I think.

Thanks!

These?

[What should I buy for Paintbrushes?]

My bones are supposed to get here any day now, and the brushes I bought at the Reaper booth at PAX are starting to fray a little bit.

I've seen a recommendation that I pick up a few Kolinsky Sable brushes for mainline work and a few "White Sable" brushes for blending/drybrushing, but I'm shopping for them on Dick Blick, and there are a dozen brands and half a dozen different shapes and it's all very intimidating. What brushes should I buy? Is there anything else I'm going to need?

For reference, I have almost no experience. I've been teaching myself on a handful of Bones since PAX, but I have no training, and my brush control is pretty bad.

Thanks.

 

So it's all new Orcs in Orcpocalypse?

[Which bones am I missing?]

Hi all. Relatively short time lurker, first time poster.

I backed the Kickstarter for Vampire plus one of each optional add-on (including Orcpocalpyse).

I'm feeling like practicing painting a little bit before my big box gets here, so I have a question: What existing bones aren't in my pledge? I'm thinking about getting a few to practice on, and I'd like as many different minis in my collection as possible.

 

Thanks!
