I am thinking of starting with some vermin. Rats, spiders, and such. Knock them out early and in bulk, and get some painting practice in.

 

Same here, to get a feel for the material. I have been working with a Bones Minotaur but I don't want to damage it.

I am dubious that you would be able to damage the Bones plastic, unless you're using fire or sharp edges.

 

In which case, I really want a video of your painting style.

 

I'm at something of a loss as to what I'll paint first; maybe some of my Orcapocalypse, or maybe the goblins from Dungeon Attack, or the skeletons from Undead Assault. A lot's going to depend on where I am and what I'm doing when the Kickstarter finally comes in; if I can do lots of Paint Nights with friends, then something we can all work on (like mooks with lots of extras). Otherwise, maybe some of the larger stuff.

Honestly I have a feeling wifey might want to have a say. She's tired of me painting "ugly monsters" (I think they're beautiful, so beautiful), so maybe one of the spiffy female adventurers to appease her first. She was gracious when I spent all those dollars on the kickstarter, so I guess I owe her that much :P

 

Personally I think I'd like to get some of the deep dwellers done asap, they fit well into an adventure I have in the making.

Oh, man. My mind went to a really wrong place when those two paragraphs combined.

 

Lemme put it this way; about nine months after you finish painting the spiffy female adventurer and those Deep Ones, you're going to need some minis with the Innsmouth Look...

I don't know, whatever is left after the kids have decided what they want to paint. After all, I went Vampire so I had a whole bunch of quality, affordable miniatures for my kids to learn on. I'm hoping all six of us will sit down on a Sunday afternoon and have a paint and chat session. We'll see.

I agree! It'll be much safer (cheaper) to start my son out on something plastic than get into the metals right away.

 

I must say I have been very impressed with every Bones mini I have purchased so far; when my vampire set comes in we are going to be overwhelmed. Maybe I can get a picture of my son buried in all the minis. :)

At this moment I remember less than half of what I ordered. I'm probably going to start small with one of the villain figs. I'll say this much, It's gotten me buying minis again. Been popping by my local store and getting 1 or 2 bones just to get in practice. Started with me just wanting to see what I was getting into but now I'm buying a fig everytime I'm downtown.

 

Big plan of course will be a painting party. Pizza, Movies, Paint and a bunch of my friends

 

and I'm going to write up a pathfinder campaign that uses every single fig.

 

just because I can
