The Final Push - Lawnor approaches 100% painted
122 MTG: Dinos, a Halfling, and Conquest Arrives
My prize copy of Conquest 2 player starter set arrived on Friday and I should start work on it soon so prep has begun with a good wash and scrub. I’m not sure what colour scheme I want to work with so please please share your schemes for Spires and 100 Kingdoms with me. I also have no clue what build options to go with for the stuff from this box to provide a fair game without buying more stuff. I’m yet to compare this stuff to the Path of Conquest videos or look at points costs, but I will before I assemble anything. Humans first I suspect.
I also snapped up some new brushes as my old ones were failing. As I said previously, I couldn’t get my usual ones so here’s a size comparison and a little feedback. The black and white brushes have not even seen water yet. The red and yellow have been used a handful of times at most so are as new.
Top to bottom:
W&N Series 7 00
W&N Series 7 1
Rosemary and Co Series 33 0
MIG MP104 1 (Red)
AMMO Synthetic Liner Brush 0/3 (Yellow)
Army painter Regiment Brush for reference as I assume everyone knows these brushes, or at least has access to them.
W&Ns are my standard. The Rosemary & Co seems comparable in scale. I’ve yet to test it out. The red and yellow brushes I’ve had for a while but not used until recently. They came in Asset Drop boxes. When my brushes started failing I thought I’d test them.
The red brush looks great, but it loses its tip as soon as I start painting with it. Its terrible for detail, but will hopefully be fine for open surface areas. I hope I just got a bad brush, but I won’t be buying any more of these.
The yellow brush looks odd. It’s so long. Its terrible for painting as it has no belly, but amazing for eyes and small dot details. I’m loving it for that, but I do have to keep reminding myself to swap out to it .
The regiment brush is my go to mixing brush (Not used that one yet). I always keep one on the go purely to destroy by mixing my paints with. It tends to paint quite well to begin with, until I trash it.
I’ve got this song stuck in my head for now so I’m sharing it all with you, and asking the important question: If this was an option, why did we get the Spice Girls?
