New England Paint Day

[Mad Jack]

 Whatever date we set I'm good with it.

[Dilvish the Deliverer]

OK the March 1st have it.  Let's plan on that. Who ever makes it into the Citadel first check the date with Pat.

 

Aard, are the others from your school going to make it, or will you need transport again?  If so then it should be no problem.

[klarg1]

Thanks for organizing, Connecticut folks. I had a great time, and als managed to get in some actual painting time!

 

I can't predict when I will be able to make it down to the citadel for another session, but I'd love to try.

[Aard_Rinn]

I'll ask around tomorrow at club. Hopefully they will, but even if I can get people interested it would probably have to be for April - coordinating vans is always a woof - so a ride for next month would definitely be appreciated... :D

[Aard_Rinn]

Hmm, what could this be?

 

 

Thanks, Chaos! There's some other angles over in my show-off thread, too! This was loads of fun to paint - now I just need to finish the little rider dude...

[Chaoswolf]

Looking good!!

[Mad Jack]

   Well, gentlemen (and lady), it's been confirmed - I just spoke to Pat, and he's good with March 1st...

We probably won't be able to hang around after closing (6pm) as long as the last time, but we're good to go.

 

Also, Pat got his MSPs in, and has everything including the sealer, primer, flow improver and drying retarder.

[Dilvish the Deliverer]

I....I....may have already tore into the paints. 

 

 

 

Hey, I needed Brush-on Primer and Brown Liner.    I would have done more damage if I had rmembered to print out my paint list before going.

[Mad Jack]

 Hehe, I picked up the brown and black washes when I talked to Pat. I probably would have gone all locust swarm on the paint rack myself, but I already have most of them.

0_0 You guys....

Srsly, tho - just got a can of Rustoleum Clean Metal Primer.

 

Muahaha. Muahahahaha. Muahahahaha! MUAHAHAHAHA!

 

Prime ALL the things!

This sounds like a lot of fun, but 2 hours (plus the inevitable traffic) is a long haul.  Is there interest in doing something similar further north, in the Boston metro area? I'm new to painting and the Boston area so I'd love to meet and see how other people paint. As for a location, I haven't been to many game shops yet.  There is a place that does lots of miniatures in Malden (5 mi north of Boston, Hobby Bunker) but they haven't been real outgoing the few times I've been in there.

[Dilvish the Deliverer]

I've got no problem with a little bit of a drive to paint in another location; or carpooling with other to get there.  If you (or another local) can find a place to host, and my schedule supports I'm game.  I know we have painted somewhere in the Worchester area before.

[Aard_Rinn]

Hey, just out of curiosity - what is the price on the paints? I'm trying to pull together a list of them to buy - does he have pretty much everything, or just a bit?

 

Also, can any of you reccommend me some good greens? I only have Christmas Wreathe, so I could use a few more, I think. The green I wound up buying last time turned out to be an ink(?), so... not sure what I'm gonna do with that...

Actually, I found traffic to be pretty light last time, even driving straight through the center of Providence. Even so, it is a bit of a drive.

 

I play games at the Hobby Bunker once in a while. It's an OK space for the job, but scheduling events can be tricky. On the up side, it is T-accessible, and parking is pretty easy on the weekends.

 

I ran one painting event at Pandemonium Books, in Cambridge, last year, and I might try to set up another, but scheduling there is next to impossible. If I get it set up, I will announce it here, but no promises.

I think MSRP is $3.29.

 

I like the "Brilliant Greens" triad, but I like to have all the paints.

[Dilvish the Deliverer]

Yeah Pat pretty much sells everything at MSRP.  That's why he still has stuff from the the 90's at 90's pricing, he never reduces or jacks up prices.
