    My gaming club puts the money together for these box sets as they comes out, then together we build and paint them. At some point I really should consider getting some people other than just me in the club, but that's just how it works some time.

    YES the painting and modelling should be a group activity - i moved away and i miss my painting evenings with my friends where we helped eachother, painted eachothers models when someone was burned out after painting too many of his own, or someone was better at eyes ect. Work gets done faster and more pleasantly

    Heck yeah this is why some stores host group building/painting events, helpful with motivation and pacing and lets you ask for ideas and opinions as you go. Not surprised your Day 4 was less fun, when the rush of building & base coating gives way to more detailed work. That was a good idea taping the old paint to a big saw as a supercharged shaker.

    My imperial guard army is huge but I only have the tanks painted and that's because I painted with a friend. He wanted an army of tanks, my army included tanks and we ended up in sort of a arms race trying to outdo each other. I got 2 Chimeras, 2 leman russ and a baneblade painted up pretty quick plus a couple of sentinels. But I have other hobbies and a lower paid job. He didn't have a baneblade but crushed me with hellhounds and leman russ. Eventually, like the soviet Union, I conceded as I had no money left. I also couldn't keep up with too little time. I really need to get my infantry done but it's a huge task and I need extra motivation, like a second arms race lol

(It helps bribing them w/ snacks & ingame bonuses f.x. inspiration dice.) When they can't make it for crafting, I fire up you guys or MWM, etc and its almost the same. Cheers from the D&D side of the table.

    • @craigjones7343
      @craigjones7343 2 роки тому

      I usually decide a head of time how far I am willing to take a model. For example my troops get a base coat and wash, rarely any highlights. If I don’t do this I will spend months on a single unit and never get anything done. My character/hero units get the full treatment.
