I'm a little lazy, but also these look like quality so which ones would you guys pick for a daemon hunters army:




I'm thinking I might get more for my money otu of set 1, and It may look better, but I wonder how practical it will be etc.




edit: also how good is the daemonhunters forge world stuff. I am thinking of splurging on the rhino and land raider top hatches/doors and ramps etc. And maybe eventually even on the dread nought which looks pretty boss. Is it worth it? 10 dollars for a top hatch alone and some such?

I've used B2B products and have no problems with them.

You CAN just superglue your minis to them, but best results are achieved through pinning.

Bear in mind they, like FW, are resin (but a different type and with much less in the way of miscast issues) and will benefit from a good scrub to ensure a reliable painting and gluing surface.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

Probably somewhere I shouldn't be

I have to admit I am a huge fan of B2B, they've got great detail and a brilliant price.

As chromedog says, wash them thoroughly and pin your models (especially metal ones) though if they're plastic I find that a little Araldite holds them just fine without the hassle of pinning.

Also grab a big flat file and use it to make sure the bottom of the base is dead flat before you attach your minis to it - they are usually pretty good at this, but there have been one or two I needed to file down.

Here's a pic of one of their 60mm bases in action
