eBay Miniature Rescues - Skaven Doom-Flayer

[@AlexBabcock-hw9iz]

This one didn't start out half bad (at least on my tiny phone screen). You really brought it out very nicely. Think you need a fine jewelry saw for those pesky paint jobs. We can save the patients Doctor... We have the technology. I agree with a spinning before and after shot would be a very good addition to your videos.

[@danielklinglesmithv2732]

Love what you did. I’m currently rebuilding a space marine bike I got off eBay. Had to strip and completely disassemble it. Got it back together now and you wouldn’t even believe it was the same bike. Keep it up.

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

I love that feeling after you save a mini like that! The biker was probably on someone’s shelf forever collecting dust and now it’s something you can tell a story about as well as use on the table...love it :)

[@danielklinglesmithv2732]

Yeah it’s pretty gratifying to bring them back from what can only be described as a train wreck. Caring wait to get to painting it.

[@TheBlackSpiral]

Great job. The ending of the video could definitely do with a before & after type of shot though. To save the viewer from having to skip back to the start to see the difference in full.

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll try and remember that for future videos.

[@paulbateman3654]

Thanks for the tip on layering with a larger brush. Ill give it a try.

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Absolutely! I hope it helps :)

[@taurentino]

Pretty cool! Id love to watch more of these for sure!! before and after pics!!

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Thanks, I totally spaced the before shot at the end on this one. But I’m planning on setting up a Facebook page to put all that stuff and have a space where people can post their rescues as well...should be up soon :)

[@tojorozombie]

Everything went to the next level, here! Great job all around, audio balance was fantastic here, awesome job on the metallics, then weathering said metallics👍🏻 An excellent amputation, as well! Enjoy your music choices, as well as their placement🤘🏼

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Thank you! I figured it was time to really get this going. It took a little longer than I anticipated but I’m glad to see the changes are welcome!

[@nikolasprince1604]

What a great idea for a series

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Thanks! Glad you like it :)

[@marcuswilson2891]

Cool rescue, sweet repaint.

*"It's still on a square base; so we've gotta change it for a round."* That's a a grudgin'...

[@Wookie_oo7]

Do you know why he had to change it to round? I havent touched the game since 2002, and the square bases where prefered because it enabled you to easily field units.

[@mogwaiman6048]

@@Wookie_oo7 Age of Sigmar uses round bases. The round bases allow for miniatures to achieve a variety of poses when positioned next to each other. I think it looks better than the old square ones.

[@mattycools84]

I love your videos. You always do an amazing job... but I wish you would clean up some of the mold lines and other stuff before you painted.

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Yeah, I’m a bit lazy about that sometimes. It’s definitely something I’m trying to stay more aware of as I make newer videos. I appreciate the feedback :)

[@deathtyrantart]

I’d love to see the work on the bases where you put some scenic grass and stuff on it

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

I’d like to incorporate more basing into the videos for sure :)

[@davidsquillacioti3853]

What are the names of the songs you used in the video

[@leebishop6723]

Absolutely amazing models you put my painting to shame

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Haha well thank you :) it’s just about putting time in and learning something every time you pick up a brush, I’m still learning, and have a long way to catch up with my favorite hobbyists. Just keep painting and you will improve with every model!

[@noelgebert]

You deserve more subs

[@MrBiggybit]

Every time you mention the name of the model, that model doubles in price on eBay! I’m trying to copy you but can never get your models for so cheap. What models are next so I can get a head of the curve and paint with you?

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

I’ll be doing another subscriber choice pretty soon, I’ve got a handful of minis to put into that so there will be time to try and find some of them if you want to follow along :) Off the top of my head there will be some older space marines, grey knights, old skaven stuff, kharadron overlords, tzaangors, and some Riders of Rohan.

[@Tehcarp]

What was that GW weekend event where you brought 200-300 points and had side vs side?? Anyway the most gruesome kill count I ever saw was one of these

[@Kostja08a]

Copper oxide is always looking fantastic, i hate when people paint copper but not adding oxide...

[@joemamajoastar8708]

What is the song that played through most of the video?

[@cmakowka]

heyyyyy, new intro

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Yes, much better now :)

[@sembowden2893]

Good job! I’ve got a little bit of constructive criticism, I think it would be a good idea to show side by side comparisons at the end, just to show the huge difference. Anyway great job

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Thanks! I’ll definitely keep that in mind :)

[@looselycollected7505]

I have a question, and I'm not knocking anything you're doing here. Because everything I've seen is very excellent work. But I've noticed that all of the videos that I have watched are all GW models/figures. Do you paint figures by any other companies?

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

I wouldn’t think you were knocking anything, your question is perfectly valid :) I’m not opposed to painting minis from any line, I just happen to play Age of Sigmar, and WH40K was my entry into the hobby about 20 years ago. If a mini came across my desk that wasn’t GW I’d still paint it. I have done some board game pieces, gloomhaven, dark souls, that kind of thing, just never made videos.

[@looselycollected7505]

Ok, I just wondered. I've played so many different mini games over the years I've lost track of everything I have played or owned. I love watching you work. I haven't painted much in a while. Getting ready to paint a bunch of stuff to use for Frostgrave and 5th ed D&D games. I own an airbrush. I've used an airbrush. But I have never used it on minis. So anytime I have seen people use one for minis it's always sort of amazed me. I'm kinds getting the itch to try it.

[@MephilesRider]

eBay ProPainted

[@eBayMiniatureRescues]

Probably half the models I buy specifically to fix are ‘pro painted’ lol

[@Belzediel]

This is great. Caught maybe eight of these, still laughing. Everything is so perfectly wrong. Is there anyone in particular you're doing a parody of, or is it just in general? Top marks for the insufferable music and beautifully over-dramatic intro. It's so good I almost missed it being a parody. Top notch.

[@Halogeek-zq7yr]

You ok there?

[@Belzediel]

@@Halogeek-zq7yr Absolutely. Do you not get the joke?
