Hi guys, please help me reach 100k subs by the end of the year by Sharing and Subscribing, many thanks 🙂

I played this game as a DM about 30 + years ago and painted them as well, good times, good times, I sculpt my own miniatures for D&D now AND print them as well. I'm using this technique to get more dept in my models. Keep it up!

Those transparent bases are very cool.

Just bought heroquest. Playing my first game tonight with my 9 year old and a couple of friends. Really looking forward to painting the minis. You have convinced me about the clear bases. Love the board.

Thank you so much, clear bases for the win lol 🙂

Great video! I really like your HeroQuest content! The 3D board is looking really nice and you have inspired me to try and do painting like you do with black base coat drybrush white then contrast/speed paint. I wanted to answer your question about more than 4 Heroes. I run Heroquest with my friends and we don't get together very often so when I do run it I want everyone to be able to play. I have been playing with groups of 5 to 9 and the biggest thing I have found that is a problem is that the Heroes will get bunched up and then the game gets boring because some people can't participate because they are in the back or they have to run around the board for 4 turns to get anywhere because of a dead end. I have designed my own missions with multiple paths so that the party can split up and then everything seems to work better. I recommend trying to make custom missions with multiple paths to solve the >4 Heroes problem.

Cheers for the comment, Im kinda in the same position and will probably only play once a month, but it would be a good 6 hour session and looking to have as many players as possible lol. Im playing my first homebrew quest this Sunday so trying to mix it up too so they can go off and hopefully not get killed lol 🙂

Love your stuff. Home brew rules and cards are awesome if you make more card content I am all for it. Thanks for sharing what you do

Cool, Im doing my first homebrew quest this Sunday and will make some monster cards and treasure cards soon 🙂

I don’t even play HQ but I love the positive vibes and always enjoy your videos. Plus speedpaints have really gotten me back into painting, so I totally agree keep showing the colors you use! (Us partly colorblind people love seeing the names so we don’t have to match by sight!)

I just ordered a copy of Zombicide Black plague as well!, I've been painting miniatures for years but haven't played an actual game in ages, after watching videos of people playing Zombicide I thought it looked perfect for me. I'm finding it harder and harder to build miniatures as I get older so these games with already built ones are perfect, can't wait to paint some zombies too.

Mine just arrived today and Im so pleased the miniatures are the same scale as HeroQuest as I want to run a dungeon full of zombies lol 🙂

Hi Miniature Waffler (that's my nickname for your channel as I love your waffling). My husband has just got a Anycubic Mono 2 3D printer because of watching your channel and how well you showed how to set up and use it. But would love it if you could do a guide on how to use the software to download model files and alter, change, position on the build plate, etc as we are finding that a bit daunting. Love your channel, keep waffling😊

Haha, I do waffle a bit, ahh thats great to hear about getting a printer, Im just about to do a lot of videos with the phrozen mighty 8K so will start doing more about settings and getting stls from sites to being printed 🙂

Awesome, its such a cool game with basic rules which can be expanded with homebrew rules 🙂

Army painter white/cream/ light bone speedpaints really need to go over solid white or gray instead of slapchop. They do come out well but need to be worked around for best effect.

You can also prime in Brown or grey instad of black and brush in Off-white (mummy something in my case, from armypainter) That makes the colours way more vibrant

10000% Interested in seeing how you make your cards? I bought a laminator, card stock and a printer... Just haven't quite worked out the kinks for the card template. I want them to look professional... Be very cool to see your work!

@@MiniatureHobbyist I'm very interested to see your process and the final results. I want to make cards not only for this game, but also my D&D campaign... And since you are a man who really takes the details of your hobby seriously, I just know you will make this look great!

I have questions please: why drybursh when you are going to paint over everything anyway? I am such a new mini painter that I have never even primed a model before I painted. Is the Speedpaint Medium I got with my Army Paints set a primer? And lastly, since you are paint over the entire model, what difference does black or white primer make? Thanks.

Is that cutting device sharp enough to cut off a finger by accident?

Great paint video and that elf came out great. 👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎 How long would you say it took to finish him from start to finish for the main colours? Plus, do you varnish the mini once completed? Glad I found your channel, I'm like you, with plain acrylic base colours, a wash or two and drybrushing, I can spend a whole evening painting one PC figure for my D&D games!

Cheers, I do like to keep things simple and the actual painting with speedpaints only took about 20 minutes, it really is fast and simple, I love it 🙂

Dear lord brother!! Why not just use a chisel tip razor to cut hero off?? Did my whole 2E zombicide with clear bases and i was cutting them off in 20 secs or less. Was grabbing base with small pliers to keep fingers out of danger.

Probably annoying, but if you can easily create a "heroquest" playlist that would be greeaaat.
