love them, but a few quality issues

4/5

I finally got my hands on mine. These are way better than I can paint (and I can't say that about any other PPM I have seen). I do have a couple of comments though:

Meri - She looks awesome. Mine came out great.

Valeros - His ear is a big bloch with way too much paint. There is a minor area where his blue glove bled onto his sword.

Ezren: The trim here could use some work. It smeared in a couple places and in a few others failed to take. I really like him though, and it is about the quality I get doing it by hand. I'm not sure if the paint on his face is supposed to be textured or if it is a defect, but it makes it look awesome. The bent arm has some bleed from the shirt onto the forearm, which is hard to notice.

Kyra (my favorite of the sculpts): I don't know if I got just got a dud here or what, but this one has numberous flaws. There blue cloak bleeds onto the yellow in at least 4 places (both armpts left leg, and in the rear). The trim, one of the most distinct and awesome parts of the mini, has some major smudges. The chain mail lacks any texture, which looks like the paint is on too thick, so I can't use a wash to make it pop like I hoped. Both arms have bleed from the gauntlets. And small there is a bubble at the crease of sword arm in the back, where the sleeve meets the tunic. - Despite all this, it is still one of the best PPM I have ever seen.

Personally, I like the foot pads. They will allow me to better add basing or rebase them. They also add a lot of stability to the mini and I don't feel like I will break their feet off (which I have done to some other PPM acidentally).

The flexibility of these minis is awesome. Unlike D&D minis, they are made from a harder plastic that will resist bending and help prevent warped pieces. The smaller areas though, like the swords and arms, are still somewhat flexible. I expect these to hold up well
