A Massive thank you to the sponsor of this video:
Mini Wargaming and Ravaged Star! Check out the campaign and pick up some sweet minis through the now opened backer kit!

This week I dive deep into a pretty nasty army I just got off of eBay. What does it really take to buy and fix an army like this. What are the things that you may need to know! Let me break it down and help you prepare for the next time you make a large eBay army purchase!
Now I would like to clarify that the painting, where it exists, could be so much worse. but there's something pretty nasty lurking in this army....mostly hairs from pets I imagine.

I feel like there needs to be a disclaimer for this sponsor. They're charging nearly $20 shipping per item purchased. You also don't know about the fee until you confirm your pledge later. I had to pay $39 in shipping for 2 small boxes. Very dishonest last second gotcha fee.

@@skimnsurf72 I can understand how you feel. I’m sorry it was more than you were expecting. Just playing devils advocate though, shipping has been higher recently, for everyone, so I don’t think it’s a “gotcha” type situation, I think that’s just where we are all at right now, and it sucks.

Just like to add about the MWG ad. You can't just buy a few models, you have to pledge for an entire pack to be able to add on an addon pack. I was an og backer, and only wanted a few models so got one of the add ons. Last week got notified that to get my pledge I'd have to buy one of the 5 war packs. Which almost tripled my pledge. Had to cancel, was really looking forward to the minis but feels bad

Loving the red skin orc thought. I have recently started buy up models on ebay after watching your videos. Really need to learn of the strip and clean these half painted and poorly based models to start from "scratch" if you will. A sonic cleaner is sadly not in my near future.

@eBayMiniatureRescues 2 жыл бұрын

The sonic cleaner is really only a time saver. If you let the models sit in LAs totally awesome, or most other concentrated cleaners, the paint will come off after a few days. Just let it soak, scrub off the models with a toothbrush (electric brush is even better) and repeat until you get the paint off.

@wezab 2 жыл бұрын

Looking at the models it would appear that they have the classic push fit syndrome. That is, the pins won't go all the way into the socket, (Air pressure being what it is) so you have these gaps that run the line of where the model is meant to join. If you build these fresh, trim down the pin to about half length an possibly drill a hole in the socket base to allow the air to escape. You should see a more tightly sealed model.

Thanks for sharing. Interesting use of the insulation foam. I see it talked about often but I'm still unhip to it's actual use. Seeing you chop that up was a good idea of how it actually works. Did you air brush it? I've heard that primer melts it unless you seal it first.

@eBayMiniatureRescues 2 жыл бұрын

The foam is pretty versatile, it cuts easily, and can be hot wire cut easily. Spray paints definitely will melt it, but as long as you spray from far enough away and don’t overload the foam with wet paint then the chemical that melts the foam will evaporate before it really hurts the foam. I rattle canned the first layer and then airbrushed it, no sealer before. Check out black magic craft for a good tutorial on how to not melt foam with paint, it’s very informative!

EMR- need your advice. I just picked up a night haunt black coach. The box has 1 set of paints & instructions has other colors, somehow I tripped up and followed the wrong one & now I'm very unhappy with how it looks. I stopped painting/assembly in case my only option is stripping. Everything else is spot on OK but the coach itself is a dark brown not black. Sadly some of the coach is glued so I'm not sure if I could paint it decent again after stripping. I'm in a back & forth loss on what to do, any advice?

@eBayMiniatureRescues 2 жыл бұрын

Interesting, I think there may be a couple of things you could do. Look into black pigment powders, that can give that wood a really nice look to it, and I'd follow that up with some enamels, like a good grey or white wash to get in those cracks. I made a pretty long form multi part video on painting that model a whole back, it may give you some ideas as to where to go. Best advice I can give is to just keep painting, as long as you're keeping it thin you can keep going until you get a result you like. Good luck!! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iaejiLpex7_cY58.html

I've gone on ebay for minis before, but I rarely buy GW stuff. I'm usually looking for stupid low prices, and GW stuff rarely gets to what I'd consider stupid low. So I guess I'm wondering what you, as someone with experience ebaying GW stuff, would consider a good deal, what you would consider a great deal, and what you would consider stupidly low/lucky? I guess percent off MSRP would be the most universal/convenient scale. So I guess that's what I'm asking.

@eBayMiniatureRescues 2 жыл бұрын

Just going off of msrp, 50% is usually pretty good, that’s the zone that I’m pretty happy in, and you will probably see the most. Getting lucky I’ve gotten stuff for 20-25% msrp, and I’ve heard good stories of the same. Those are rare, but definitely happen. Especially if you plan on buying a larger lot. Singles are tough to find for low prices, unless they made a ton of them or the model isn’t playable in the current meta. But buying a “lot” or an army will almost always get you the most off, 50% at a minimum generally.

@JCPRuckus 2 жыл бұрын

@@eBayMiniatureRescues - Thanks for the info. It's just so hard to calibrate GW stuff compared to everything else, because it starts out more expensive and holds its value better. And if you're buying an army then the big stuff is going to throw off any kind of dollar/per model standard, which is usually how I prefer to think about it.

There are tons of reasons to want or not want stls. I love 3d printing, and I have tons of great models because of it, but, I think this is more of a quality control issue. The models going out will be a certain quality that represents a new game and ip. I get why they want to keep that under control. And, as much as people are getting into 3d printing, there are still lots of people who don’t have them. Maybe someday we will see ravaged star 3d prints, but probably only when the pirating issues are solved. On that note we are likely to see GW jump in if that’s the case.
