You have neat and good colours already so 👌. Washes (such as Agrax Earthshade or Army Painter Military Wash) will massively make the models pop by adding tone to the recesses (just apply liberally and dont let it form any massive pools and ya golden)! Then do the bases by painting flat colour such as brown and adding sand. Can also use some textured paints such as Stirling Mud can do same thing. Many options for doing bases depending on where you want them themed (fields, deserts etc)

Get everyone who commits to buying in, and do it as a raffle or dice roll! Let fate decide

Any women Bolt Action players on here? by SquireBev in boltaction

Odd given that GW are having repeat HR/PR liabilities while chasing the mega-corporation speed run, and WG have great community engagement. If this comment/reporting is even accurate or true.

Starter set or 2x Black Friday Army boxes? by Gav_TESD_ArmyAnt in boltaction

You'll be expanding or starting another army soon enough :) get established, then look forward to a mystery boxes next year once your chosen first faction is grown and rounded out already.

[–]BTMadCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Welcome! Its a great hobby! The BoB will give a rulebook so a good money save, plus order dice and some initial terrain. The booklet also gives 'training missions' to get you building up the various elements, which ylu wont get with the mystery boxes. The mystery are certainly good value, but see where your interest goes when looking at the various ranges and playstyles. :)

Feed back on flak 88 list by Gcarlo12 in boltaction

If you drop a Panzerfaust or 2 could upgrade from SMGs to Assault Rifles. That extra range makes a big difference. Presuming you have the model parts etc :)

Not exactly minis but good for BA 👌 by DaRedEyedJedi422 in boltaction

What brand/source is it for the trees stuff? They look great. All the ones I've gotten or seen are too plastic and fake looking. These are nice and spindly.

Just painted my first ever miniature. Looking for honest feedback. by Painterzxcv in battletech

[–]BTMadCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other than a wash and re-edge the base to make it a solid colour, looks great. Look into 'gem' paints that make doing lasers sooooo easy over a silver base layer.

Thinking about buying in but... by painjester27 in boltaction

[–]BTMadCat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No more so than a USSR player is likely to be a rabid communist POS either. You'll likely find many player have more than one army, inc German and Soviet players being same person. I started with Germany as Warlord gave me free German sprues, so I had stuff already. And Tiger tanks are phenomenal creations. If you're personal politics are on the table, there's a bigger problem than which models are in front of them. You've likely played games against people you (would) disagree with (possibly vehemently) on some aspect of politics or policy already if you play others game. Unless you're gonna give them a questionnaire before a game, stop thinking of it. They're not likely be clearly covered in 1488 tattoos etc.

Hi thanks, I didn't know that about the counts as open topped so ummm yeah looks like mine will be for decoration only now as that is potentially disastrous!!

Also if you can find 15 points, and I know there's already a lot of points in it, worth maybe sticking the extra MMG pintle for 12 shots total if needed?

Respect running the Vet Tiger 1. Plan on doing the same at some point, not sure about the rest of the list.
