I recently received Runebound in trade and the original owner had 9 of the 12 miniatures painted (what a nice surprise, by the way, Ced! Thanks!). Of course, I'd like to paint the final three. I've got some painting experience and I'm not terrible at it--but I'm by no means great.

I started painting them last night and had a few issues. The flesh tones went on fairly well, but when I tried to paint the yellow and orange, it sucked. They didn't cling to the figure at all (I'm using Vallejo paints, so they SHOULD be fine). Does anyone have any different paint suggestions or recommendations to help this process work.

Also, I really don't have the time I'd like to commit to painting my WoW Board Game figures, but in lieu of seeing the Runebound figures, I'd like them painted as well. Is anyone aware of any painting services that are willing to paint the FFG miniatures? I've contacted a few, but all have said they won't paint the FFG minis. I'd be willing to contract them out and pay fair market price for an individual BGGer that'd be interested as well.


If you have any helpful information, please let me know.

Thanks, as always!
