It isn't quite THAT bad. When we use spider minis in our games I'm just fine with the unpainted ones. It's the bigger prepainted ones that give me slight twinges before I remind myself they're plastic. And that's the problem . @TaleSpinner did such a lovely job on her that if we got one (we probably will, tbh, spiders are super useful for gaming), I would want to paint her up as a photorealistic black widow since she's so beautifully sculpted as one, at least that's how I interpreted the sculpt. While I doubt it (he generally lets me handle the KS stuff), I have been known to impersonate him on the internet in the past. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

Technically yes, but he really has no interest in painting. I did eventually coax him into painting a Bones table several months ago, but that's as far as it's gone. I on the other hand have an entire painting room to myself now, and it's glorious. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

@TaleSpinner please don't take this the wrong way, because your creation is truly glorious. But. My brain is finding her somewhat terrifying and I don't think I could handle having her on my painting desk. .... I just showed it to MrBoot and he wants you to know that he wants to get two. I told him I'm not painting them. ^This. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

Nooo..... Okay, well to be fair, I have practice painting very large things in a short period of time. For less-crazy individuals, probably a few weeks by hand, significantly less if one has an airbrush. No need to message, the 'pirate' ship was the only thing I was told about. Well that and the theme for one of the expansions that hasn't shown up yet, but shouldn't be a huge surprise when it drops. I have to admit to laughing out loud when I read that. @buglips*the*goblin has, as far as I know, officially retired from doing goblin challenges. I, on the other hand, am considering this. A little bit. MAYBE. It will largely depend on how expensive the thing ends up being, and whether I can convince MrBoot of the practicality of the thing. Though we do have a lovely big fireplace mantle we could display it on... (don't plan on using the fireplace itself, so that's not a concern). Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

*looks it over* Given it lacks scales, teeth, eyes, wings, or miles of vertebrae, I could probably do it in a week. In my experience, terrain-type pieces paint up much faster than people or creature minis. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

Probably to keep it in scale-ish with typically sized minis? Ooo look at the weeny cannons on it! Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

FINALLY!!!! I've had to sit on the knowledge that Reaper WAS doing a ship ever since ReaperCon!!! (I found out at a dinner with some of the Reaper employees and was sworn to secrecy MANY times) It's been so painful because I wanted to confirm it so badly but I couldn't!! Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

@criticalhit Huh. After doing some searches, it would appear that the female Bones halflings I've been using (I usually play halfling rogues) are marketed as gnomes or dwarves. If they hadn't been labeled as such, I'd have thought the female dwarves particularly WERE halflings due to their sturdier proportions. The gnomes do have slightly pointed ears that give them away (though I used an exacto knife to round them a bit on mine). I would recommend adding your suggestion to the Bones we want to see thread: https://forum.reapermini.com/index.php?/topic/76562-bones-youd-like-to-see-thread-4/ Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

Dang it, klarg, I don't need another cool diorama idea in my head! ... *scribbles down idea* There's at least one for sure, but I'm fairly certain there's more. I'll dig up some links here in a bit. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

Well, I finally totalled up everything I want in the pledge manager. It currently comes to $250, without any of the expansions (which I'm confident we'll get at least one of). ALREADY. This one will be painful on the wallet indeed. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

Those spiders are lifelike enough that my brain keeps going AAAHH KILL IT WITH FIRE!!! Which naturally means we will be getting them. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

My apologies, TGP. I think I read your post a bit fast and thought you meant what rubegon posted above. Now that I re-read it, I can see your post was correct, but also how a new pledger could misunderstand. Re: stats - I find it most interesting that the average new backers per hour (based on my non-mathematical observations) seems to be between 15 and 20. Every hour! That's awesome! Re: pledge manager - I'm afraid to plug in what I want cuz I'm scared what the total will be, and the KS has only been live for a week.... Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

Thank you! I would have posted pictures, except I was so excited (and rushed) to finish it and get it to Cosmo that I straight-up forgot to take any! This is Incorrect. The upcharge is ONLY if you back the project AFTER it ends next month. If you are already a backer, even if it's for $1, then you will have access to the KS prices. Any money that is pledged before the end of the project helps to unlock stretch goals; however, please pledge responsibly. Correct. As for final project total, my estimate is between 4 and 4.5 million, based on how things have been going so far. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

*readies paintbrush* Tbh, I had an absolute blast doing the elephant one! Cosmo's reaction was the best: "I need to go kill some players with this RIGHT NOW!" I'm loving the greek expansion so far! As of right now, I'm planning on the core, dungeon dweller and greek expansions, and most of the addons. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D

The swamp(?) dragon. His smirk is amazing, and he looks so very lizardy in his pose, all draped comfortably on the rock/log. Thank you very much for the reminder, I really needed it! We unlocked so much so quickly that I forgot how far we've already come and it hasn't even been a week yet!!! Huzzah! --OneBoot :D
