We’re back again, Dear Readers, with another unboxing! Today’s unboxing is one of Army Painter’s D&D specific box of paints.
Taking a look at the box, I’m already excited…soon you’ll see why.
First things first, let’s see what we have: 10 paints exlusive to the D&D Nolzur’s line!! It makes me happy that I have paints unable to be found elsewhere, but we’ll get to that. It also comes with…Acererak?! I cannot WAIT to get this bad boy open!
Pretty standard for Army Painter products. You have the Hobby Products guide, the warranty card (which, for those just joining us, is absolutely amazing; I have NEVER had an issue getting a warranty replacement, from new paint nozzles to replacing a wargame tape measure!), as well as the stuff that is specific to the Nolzur’s line of paints, namely the card advertising the other paint sets in that line. Notice, too, there is a card with a list of their entire palette of paints, less the exclusive ones of course.
Now, though, I am curious…
So we have 9 new paints here, as well as an exclusive wash/shader. Neat! But what’s this in the center?
Well…that was…unexpected. When I got the beginner set that comes with Minsc and Boo, the miniature was already put together. It just needed painting. Now we have an Acererak that…well…some assembly required. Yay! New project to showcase here on The Blog! I just hope I don’t mess it up somehow…
Now back to the paints…
It looks like the perfect set of paints to paint our favorite lich from Tomb of Annihilation! I’m really looking forward, specifically, to the Bleached Skull and the Wraith Black. The Cursed Blade is going to be really great when I eventually paint myself a blackguard/oath breaker paladin! Heck, I may pull out my dad’s old Strahd miniature and repaint him with these. He could use a repaint…
So, what do you think, Dear Readers? Do you have any ideas on what else, aside from Acererak that I could get to paint with these? Leave your ideas in the comment section below.
