Painting Assistance

I have just now started to look at my minis from the kickstarter to begin painting.

Does anyone have an advice? Should I use Krylon plastic primer for these?

Basic stuff...

It's always a good idea to wash your miniatures with water and soap to make sure any anti-sticky-material from the molds isn't still on the model.
Usually I would recommend Citadel spray paint. It covers in a nice thin layer - as opposed to Army Painter which covers better, but also in a thicker layer.
Always use several thin layers rather than one thick layer. Spray lightly - do the dishes - come back and give another layer. Perhaps place the model in a different way that allows the paint to reach new spots.
Never use spray on miniatures if it's too humid. The spray will catch water from the air and apply uneven.

I don't have any experience with Krylon plastic primer though - sorry
But paint isn't just paint. Some paints are intended to cover uneven surfaces - like paint for radiators. Miniature paint is intended to preserve uneven surfaces aka the details.

I, for one, have heard and seen good things about a primer named Krylon from Amercian youtubers and stuff.
If it's specifically the plastic primer, I don't know, but it sure sounds right.
Try one figure with the stuff if you already have it.

Goblin-King's tips are all good and I'd sign them.
I'll add this:
Always watch some youtube videos when you wanna do something you haven't done before. That's true for every craft or hobby ever anywhere and it helps a lot.

Thanks so much!

I'll give Krylon plastic primer a try.

Thanks so much!

I'll give Krylon plastic primer a try.

Be sure to test it on a single miniature before doing a whole batch
