Bones Kickstarter #2 Discussion

[Werkrobotwerk]

hmmmm paints are good, and bear cavalry is very very interesting, but I'm not certain about the expansion as a whole. Guess I'll take a wait and see approach for now.

Those Anhurians are a good choice because they don't have any noses.

 

And looking at the expansion set #1 there aren't too many small noses either, which makes me happy about giving them more money for that. Not too many noses in the add-ons in general.

 

Those mouslings though -- those have wee lil noses and many fine details.

was it specified on any post whether or not the Calvary were going to be separate from their mounts?

no one from Reaper has answered that question at this time.... although it would be a bear (groan) to paint if they were attached.

I can tell you that they'll very likely be molded that way. Whether or not they'll be glued at the factory is another matter.

And now that there are so many paint options available in Reaper's various lines, I would like to request:

1) a Reaper color wheel, that shows where each MSP and HD paint shows up in relation to each other. Could be online like the PowerPalette but I like my paper wheel and would buy a Reaper-centric one.

2) Reaper paint swatches, for use on the lid in their cases or on a shelf. Something like what this guy did but with updated names and the full series:

Yes, I am a bit OCD.

 

Ok, maybe a lot OCD. I still WANT IT!

[Last Knight]

YES.

 

YES YES YES.

 

YES!

Calvary? That's a different kind of diorama:

I was just wondering about that myself. Speaking of Cavalry this might never work in Bones but I would still want one:

1) This will not be made due to the amount of information conveyed; it would be far too easy for another company to copy the colors that way.

2) Unlikely; you're better off doing this yourself (I like to paint a alternating white and black lines, then run a swipe of the color over, to show both the color and its transparency).

[Last Knight]

Srsly, happy birthday Mrs. Boot - Reaper loves you!

Bummer. I understand lack of #1, but #2 will be very tedious to do myself. BTW, the linked item I referenced includes the black and white bars, and it works nicely but is tiny and incomplete.

I'll just be over here dancing around and chanting about new paint for a while.

 

Paint junkie! Like you don't have enough shades already? (Of course I'm right there with you, LOL)

 

How does one know when they have enough slightly different shades or paint in each color of the color spectrum?

 

 

How could anybody not want 12 bottles of HD paint for $18?

 

I suppose if I was really committed, I'd buy two of each.
