I've wanted to paint minis for a while now, and the one mini I got is a small blueberry I haven't even painted because I'd need to buy the tools and paints, which aren't sold here.

If I were stateside I'd be drowning in orc and salamander minis. Or more likely yet, primed but not painted, and tossed aside like half the hobbies I pick up until the moment I got the jist of what its about.

I got 300 eur worth of ifninity minis, lost a shitty painting competition and now ive put it off since i need a paint booth.

Ive picked up airsoft now. At least airsofts cheaper.

Oof, isn't airsoft a money sink as well?

Unironically really cheap. Mostly kids with no jobs play it so they have no concept what a money sink is.

It's comparable in cost to a cheaper tabletop mini game.

Oh, I had thought it would've been expensive as hell. Guess that it comes down to how built up you have your kit, I guess.
