Opticamo characters mini-update

Update #33 · Jun 17, 2012 · 16 comments

Just got a shot of these guys, and yes Barker is in there too.  The Lights Out Pack and the Opticamo Pack both get these guys.

Also a shout out to Funding the Dream, where CoolMiniOrNot's own David Doust (or DD) gives some insight on Kickstarter!

      So aside from the characters, optical camo set nets you half of the starter box contents of vanguard, and it excludes AI Drone (assuming it can't use opticamo)

      These 4 plus the rest of the vanguard from the pack obviously

      Shawn- I believe what you see is what you get as far as opticamo figures. These 4 are probably it and unless there's a huge demand or the rules get officially worked into an expansion, I doubt you'll see anymore opticamo figs later. Get em before they're gone everyone!

      Will NIven make it as a Opticamo figure?

      That reinforces my decision to get the lights out campaign.

      Man, that interviewer is terrible. Interrupts, botches the name, and a poor understanding of the company. Just brutal.

      I'm already in for lights out. I'm going to have a go with liquid mask, selectively spraying and painting only the mechanical parts of the strain. And possibly an opticamo halfway between phased out. Plus some funky washes, I think blue would work nicely, or possibly just good old black.

      Still on the fence about the packs, but from the Funding the Dream bit, the CMON guys seem really nice. They said it: The games are packed with value, cool, and unique. It'll be interesting to see what they come out with next!

      Really nice...

      The ink wash brings out the details.

      Nice!

      Creator Jake Rose on June 17, 2012

      These guys will look cool with an ink wash. I used this technique on some clear resin hunter aliens and was very happy with the result.

      Thanks for putting this up may help push some of those sitting on the fence about these although the Opticamo seems to be doing it's job in the picture - hard to make out details :)
