Acefury.eq - I like the pink you used on Unity. Do you remember what particular paint that was? anyone else have a reccomendation for hot pink/magenta paint?
As someone who is new to minis painting..... there is a lot out there. Are there recomendations on what to use to get started? (besides Spiff's recomendation on NOT Board to Pieces Primer)
Looking for paint recommendations or like starter kits to use or other recommedations.....
This was my first time painting minis as well. We actually live across the street from a Michaels and asked one of the employees there that avidly paints. He said that he usually only gets his brushes from Michaels and told us to try out Reaper mini paints or citadel paints. We went with Reaper paints, worked out well. =D For sealing and priming, we went ahead and just got krylon white primer and krylon clear gloss sealer.
All depends on if you have a preference of enamel over acrylic.
Citadel used to have a starter kit.
Easiest way to get started would be to make a list of what colors you want/need and head to your flgs. Buy the paints and a variety of brushes, can or pot of primer. Depending on your figures and the parting line, either a razor knife or fine grit sanding paper.
Wash. Let dry. Inspect. Primer. Inspect. Trim if needed. Sand if needed. Re-primer if needed. Paint. Generally start with the lighter colors. Be more careful with the darker colors.
McBehrer is the sole winner of this game... And McBehrer, I would step carefully should you find your way down dark alleys. More than one vote said simply, "McBehrer must die."
While it may take some time, I am satisfied to have painted the miniatures myself:
Although I am happy to have finished them, I find myself already looking forward to the Broken city and For profit miniatures! Any chance for an update / teaser picture for those?

Personal taste thing, I'd have reversed Legacy's and Tachyon's hair colors.
They look fantastic.
