The army painter barbed wire is actually sealing wire that you can get from a hardware/plumbing store for probably like 10x less.

I think batch painting was more effective when we were working with the old GW models that basically looked the same. Nowadays, they are more individualized, so it doesn't save as much time as it used to do.

I am working on several teams at once. Finished the Necrons (Warriors, Immortals and Deathmarks) & Space Marines (Intercessors with different Boltrifles and Grenade Launchers, Assault Intercessors and Reivers) and started on a cheaty Custodes Box, just for the lols. Left to do after that are Tau, Deathguard and Imperial Guard.

Okay. I totally agree about the batch painting not being faster. I think that doing a base coat for something like an entire space marine armor is worth doing batch. But then doing pouches etc I find batch painting I miss things and end up having to go back and fix them when I discover it. I would love to see an experiment on that for a video.

@Myserieden 2 жыл бұрын

I agree about a video about this. You always hear about batch painting being faster and more efficient. I could see where doing all the base coating in a batch working, but as said above, beyond that the details would become rushed and sloppy. I’m a slow painter regardless. So I’m curious if there’s be a difference with someone who’s already faster.

@Dracodomin 2 жыл бұрын

I think it becomes faster as soon as you start tacking on washes. Since they take a while to dry, you can save a lot of time waiting for 6 to dry instead of 1 at a time

@crossbones8956 2 жыл бұрын

I feel the same way. I don’t think I’ll do more than 4 or 5 minis at a time ever again. I’m finishing a box of German Grenadiers for Bolt Action and I’m spending more time going back and fixing things than would have had I just done a few at a time.

@cinnabarsin4288 2 жыл бұрын

There probably is an efficiency factor that's potentially improved but it's so much more tedious. For me it loses the fun factor a lot faster and I find myself a lot more dissatisfied with the results I'm getting.

@seanwarren9357 2 жыл бұрын

It really depends on the scale of operation. Doing 10 small models is definitely not worth the effort, unless you're already set up for that kind of process and used to it. That said, it could be worth doing just to learn better process control, but that's a subject for another time. 🤔

@mikemcateer4685 2 жыл бұрын

I am really on the fence about batch painting. My limited experience so far is that priming and base coats as a batch are faster but when your layering and adding fine details I prefer one at a time as I miss less stuff. I’ve got the kill team box but haven’t even had the time to open it yet. My current painting is on space wolves and when that’s complete I would like to try contrast paining some blood angels. I love the way you only care how you want them to look.

nah batch painting is the way to go for speed. Way more time to switch paints than to switch models. But with that said batch painting just feels like you're not getting anywhere since you're doing the same step over and over, which is meh.

@Sturmensky 2 жыл бұрын

@@samsowden Potentially. I can see an argument being made for extra time spent cleaning your brush slowing you down (though you should always clean your brush regularly, even if you aren't changing colours). I think the main benefit of batch painting is the rhythm. If the models are similar, you're almost always doing the same motions. That means less time figuring out what to paint, where to paint, etc. I think batch painting is good for large sections (e.g., armor, coats) and pieces that are uniform across all models. But I'll do fiddly bits (e.g., pouches) model-by-model.

I got into Kill Team just recently. All the big boxes were gone from the market (except the starter kit) and Betha decima was still a ways off. I managed to buy a Gallowdark Killzone and have eventually gotten hold of the separate bigbox-specific terrain pieces for the gallowdark season, but It still pains me that I missed out on this box. The terrain is just insanely cool, and the content is so complete. The starter set, while an amazing deal, is still kind off a "kill team lite" experience. You have to expand it fairly quickly. Man this box was great!

And James has finally announced the standalone guardsmen box so I'll be able to build all the melee guys and some standard troopers soon.

Uncle Atom would say that bunch painting makes sense but only in moderation. Like 3-5 models max. Otherwise it's easy to reach a state where you get bored or don't feel much accomplishment. Try out bunch painting fewer models next time. Maybe 1 prototype model and than 3 sets of 3.

I’ve suspected batch painting being slower, especially if you only have one painting handle and have to swap the minis in and out. Also, army painter barbed wire makes really good rebar if painted and sticking out of concrete. Models look great as usual. I hope your group switches over or at least gets to try the new edition soon! It’s the most fun game system GW has put out imo.

Water bottle with beans. Best paint handle you can ask for. The beans keep the center of mass at the bottom and make it easier to stabilize the mini when painting.

I go back and forth with the batch painting theory.. I think it honestly depends on what you are painting.. It seems to work at times and then other times it doesn't.. It's a weird paradox??? I think I agree with the consensus that the base coat and major parts of minis that it works but once you get to the details its easier to do one at a time as I often miss things too like others have said!

@anniebae7049 2 жыл бұрын

Batch painting the full 9 is the issue, I did one to completion to make sure everything worked, and then I split the rest of the 9 in half 4 and 5, and batch painted them that way. You see them all come together sooner so it feels like less of a slog, but you still get the benefits of batch painting. As for the Last question mine is Sgt. w/ power sword and Plasma Pistol Confidant with Bolt pistol and chain sword Gunner with Plasma Rifle Gunner with Flamer Hardened Veteran Medic Demolition Vox Spotter Sniper I can't wait for them to show up on EoB complete :)
