Hubs (AC) and I jumped on the crazy bandwagon of Bones this time when they launched their second kickstarter – it was more monsters than humanoid figures, to complement their Bones I campaign.
We’re getting (miniature) truckloads of minis, and I CANNOT WAIT. I was so excited I had already begun researching about painting on Bones material and getting inspiration for colour palettes even before the campaign ended.
There are a couple of outstanding pieces, and one of the mega highlights – and I mean MEGA – is the huge diorama of a incensed dragon and greedy adventurers on ruins. Let the pictures speak for themselves:
Before the campaign ended I was telling AC how incredulous it is that there wasn’t a wicked spider sculpt included in either campaign. Well, that conversation was cut short when we woke up and the campaign had ended and in the 4 hours after we had gone to bed they had added Cardirith the spider as an add-on purchase!!
I AM SO STOKED about this. In any case, the campaign is over and we will get the minis next year – right now Reaper is asking all backers to confirm their pledges (they are allowing us to increase our pledges by paying through PayPal), which is a smart move. I myself have added 88 USD to my pledge. Can’t imagine how much the other 14,000+ backers will add.
In the meantime, I have my Bones townsfolk to paint (thanks LC!)! They are prepped and I’ll put up an article on my experience painting them.
games, miniatures and kickstarters 
Can’t wait to see what you think of these!! I picked up a couple of Bones minis the other day at a local gaming store and the material they are made from was a lot different than I had been expecting! Haven’t painted any yet though so I’m eager to hear your thoughts when yours arrive! 🙂
Thanks! Yeah I’m excited to paint too! Might do them this weekend. I only have Citadel, Vallejo and Folk Art though so we will see how they work. With this kickstarter I did get the Reaper paints they were including as an add-on. 😀
Can’t wait to see you paint that spider of yours =) Bet its gonna look great!
