I guess it depends how you are with small detail work. If you have a steady hand and a good magnifier glass and some really nice detail brushes it might not be too bad. My grandpa paints models and has for decades and he has a really nice magnifier that stands on the table so he only has to hold the model under it to make it easier to see close up.
Another option is getting them unpainted and finding someone local to paint them for you?
Thank you for bringing it to our attention :)
Yeah, I've put that into search at kbin but it turned up empty. We might still have been too new. We are starting to get subscribers and commenters from other instances though, so we're getting there :)
Thank you for that list. We also found Lemmy.de and Lemmy.ca and I've reached out to contact them about it. Lemmy.ca has said they will refederate. So, we're getting there.
It's probably my third favorite after Steris and Vasher. I just love it, it's perfect.
we're good now :)
I've tried leaving comments on that post both from this account and my kbin.social account but they aren't showing up. I can't find another way to contact that OP. :( You are welcome to have them reach out to me at [email protected]
You can see here we are down to only organic users.
Okay I figured out how to do it and left them a note! Thank you for letting us know.

We did notice a large amount of bot sign-ups early on. We already ha email verification on and they never made it past that stage.
We have since turned on CAPTCHA and now they aren't signing up any longer.
We've purged the bot accounts from our database.
We are working on generating organic content but we've only been open for a couple weeks so I just ask that other instances bear with us. We've a very niche community of sci-fi and fantasy geeks. We'd love to be federated again.
I can't seem to post over on that link. I don't know how to open that link here in our home instance. But we did notice the bot sign up and took care of it. They never got past e-mail verification and now that we've had CAPTCHA in, no wave of bots any longer. Our database has been purged.
We purged all the bots and set up CAPTCHA and I can say that we do not have a bot infestation right now. None of them made it past the signup. There's been no posting activity.
The only bot posting is one Nighed has been testing as a mod tool while it's being built.
Yeah, that may be the best way to go. That chasmfiend is amazing and deserves a nice paint job.
