I have a Brettonian army I am seriously thinking about selling, along with some figures for the game which are still "in the box".

Any ideas on the best place for me to sell them?

ebay. You can try bartertown b/c it's free, so that can't hurt. But I say ebay is still the best.

and I would dip it. It may be the flash, but they look a bit 'flat' in the painting. Dip will both protect them and add interesting shading. I take my Necron plastics that are dipped and throw them into plastic food containers. Never had a problem with them, and they look great. And no wear over the years.

Just a thought. again, it could be the flash. No matter what, you'll want to take a lot of high-quality pics if you want top dollar for them.

Dip it =

Future floor wax + black or brown ink, mix… then dip your figure in it and shake off the excess.

The exact mix of future floor wax to ink may vary, but it's essentially a wask technique that reduces blotching (since the floor wax is technically acrylic medium). It protects the figure, the ink ends up in the low/deep cracks, and gives the figure a durable coating, suitable for walking on.

I use it when I'm in a hurry, and it turns subpar paint jobs into average ones. Great for getting rank and file bozos painted up in a hurry to a "3 foot standard".

I think I'll pass on "dipping it". Sounds like a mess waiting to happen, but thabks!
