... I was so wrong...

SHeesh, do I need to post up some of my repainted Dreamblade or Heroclix figures? Honestly, prepaints put out stuff that otherwise just wouldnt exist. It means that things that have expensive licenses can be produced cheaper which in many cases allows them to be produced at all. Now mind you as with the rest of the hobby, some of them are better then others, both in the paint quality on them and the plastic quality, but in general the actual sculpting quality is about the same, though sometimes it's buried under an 1/8 of an inch of paint.

I have not much experience with pre-paints Noel, but I find pre-painted sculpts too 'simple' sometimes. This is probably because of machine-painting requirements.

yeah, most of the prepaints i've seen so far, were pretty flat and not detailed...
