Fulfilling BASIUS 4 - COMMUNITY

[klarg1]

I haven't backed any of the Basius campaigns, so I am tempted, but undecided. (Lots of people seem to like them, but my funds are not infinite)

 

I'll follow along and see.

They're good. 

But some are more difficult to get a good result with than others because of the incredible detail.

The kids, the missus and I have spent the whole weekend pressing purple PlayDoh and taking a photo of what each pad can produce (albeit a rather blocky one as its just playdoh and not Green Stuff!!), I'm sorting them out as I write and will put them up asap.

 

the 'Bestseller' set has been taken down as we don't have time to get one organized - we were hoping to run a survey during the project to find out YOUR fav 12, but we needed longer to do that - and the project accidentally started with only 14 days on the clock rather than the planned 4 weeks!!!!

 

If we ran the survey at this point people would not know in time if the pads they wanted could get into the bestseller set... so instead there is now an 'any 12' option for backers (thanks Lynn, you're great!)

 

Happy Seppuku texture stamps are only $5 each, and already available, so I'm trying them first. I suspect the detail isn't as good, but I'm only painting to advanced tabletop.

I have a few of the Happy Seppuku stamps, and have yet to make a good impression with them. 

It may need a lighter touch and softer material than what I've tried, or I'm a clutz.  

The level of detail is also worlds apart.

These are very different from the Happy Seppuku texture stamps.

 

Both have their pros and cons. The HS texture stamps are an awesome price, so you can afford to buy a few just to have a go with them. For $5, you can't really go wrong. They are made from a soft-ish silicon or rubber.

 

I find the Basius stamps have a bit more detail. Plus they are made from a very hard resin (I was really surprised at just how hard the resin was. I find the detail on the Basius stamps is a bit better than HS. On the downside, they are also more expensive than HS.

 

I've got 4 of the big Basius pads and a dozen of the Basius Texturis pads, so that's enough to last me for quite some time.

My pack of 8 stamps arrived. 

And the quality is just as good as previous sets.

Are all rewards delivered for all of our community members?

[HornedTurtle]

I wonder if there will be another kickstarter, I can't seem to find these anywhere.

[Gadgetman!]

They're supposedly getting resellers, but so far they've yet to come up with a list.

I was a 4-pad backer, got mine a couple weeks ago.

[Ellusionist]

Still dont have mine sadly. 8 pad backer

[klarg1]

I received my four pads last week.

 

I haven't taken them for a spin yet though, so I can't particularly speak to quality. (They look pretty good.)

My eight arrived today. Appear to be in good order and the same as the last time I bought them. Look forward actually to using them this time.

Basius posted an update this morning offering a free pad (plus shipping of course)
