The goal: to have all my DOOM boardgame minis ready for Sunday, which was our next campaign attempt. Quick painting and dipping are the key here..
Day 1 was Monday, actually.
10:00
I grabbed all the minis, dumped them in a plastic bin, and gave them a quick rinse in some soap and water. To save time I actually did this in the shower.
I then laid them outside on the stump to dry (it wasnt cold yet.. a mere 50ยบ).. off I go to run some errands.
Heres a pic right before I left:
I also had to glue the 3 Cyberdemons together. For size comparison, here is a pic next to a Warjack..
Coming home, I gave them a quick coat of Primer. For some reason, the primer ACTED AS A WASH. I thought it was a fairly older can, so I grabbed a new can (bought during my errands) and had the same results.. I think its due to the dropping temperature.. the can says use between 50-80 degrees.. after 3 attempts, I get enough primer on the figs to satisfy me.
As a side note, I used the primer INSIDE in my storage/laundry room on some warmachine figs, and got the same result).. WTF???
I let the figs sit overnight in the bin to ensure all the primer dries properly.
NEXT: Line 'em up & Knock 'em down!

Did you boil them in water to de-warp the bases? Or do you plan on painting them simply as they come?
No boiling / hot water. Straight out of the box.
Had I really been anal, I would have clipped the off the bases and pinned them to standard plastic ones (nice round Warmachine type, not GW slot).
great information. Check out this blog at artist painting.
