One solid, one green translucent, and one glow in the dark, although they're waiting on samples to make sure the effect actually pops properly I wonder how a chestnut Minwax dip would look over the Glow in the Dark? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirithiliel Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I want the hippocampus figurehead Not the ship. Just the hippocampus. That is a cool mini 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would both dull the glow, and make it take longer to absorb enough light. But, a drybrush with a GitD paint would help bring it back up. Me, I think I would prefer a 'zombie' ship to a 'ghost' ship - but both are cool. (And, again, GitD paint is a thing - I can highlight in a Glow in the Dark paint for a foxfire effect.)

That is a cool mini I agree! No need for the ship (and nowhere to store it), but that hippocampus would be perfect for a few things I can think of 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a cool mini Since it's an optional figurehead, I'd suspect it would be possible to order just the hippocampus :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pineapple Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I'm planning to order a Reaper figurehead and a Hippocampus figurehead if they're both available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even if those aren't the problem, the interior of that ship seems fairly packed. So much material in inside the ship will probably make it all look rather blobby and mashed together It depends on how much interior detail Chris Lewis decides to put in. And will that interior detail look like ribs, strakes, beams, knees, and planks? Twin thoughts to think about: Do you really want to see all of that timber detail if the ship is translucent? If the ship is translucent and those sorts of details are absent, will that lack of authenticity be disappointing? Either way @Nunae 's point is a good one: enough layers of translucent material will eventually look like a solid-ish milky green[?] blob. All this, ^ but in translucent plastic? (Plank and framing models like this are called Admiralty Models.) @Chris Lewis: are the masts going to be represented on every deck? (For those that don't know, on ships of this period, the masts extended down to the keelson.) Having a post on each deck at all the mast locations might help hold up each deck above and prevent sagging.

Yeah, they will be. Last week Ron said the woman with the guns comes with the ship and the other options are going to be add-ons in the Pledge Manager. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aku-chan Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Decided to go ahead any just add what I wanted to my pledge (I know I'm not supposed to be buying any more minis at the moment, but this Kickstarter was from before that so it doesn't count ). So far I've locked in:- Elves, Kid Heroes, Halloween Free-bees, Sophie's Lucky Dice, Storm Giant, Rune Wights, Elemental Scions, Bust Collection, Sirens and Shadows of Ravenhome. Next month I'm going to start adding an expansion a month. Definitely getting Greek, Dark Depths, Brinewind and Fan Favourites, still undecided on Dungeon Dwellers though. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
