Demonstrations

Hi

Can someone tell me if it is worth getting any particular miniatures along with this DVD so that I can make a crude attempt at following along, or are the demonstrations done on just part of a variety of minis to show off the effect in the best way?

Thanks

Sorry, more likely my fault for not being clear. :redface:

What I meant was, do you fully paint the 12 minis from start to finish, in which case it would be useful for me to buy those minis to copy as best I can, or do you only do part of each one, ie a cloak, in which case I will be just as well off using one of the hundreds of unpainted minis I already have.

Thanks for your quick reply, and I completely understand if you don\'t reply to this. Sounds like you\'re very busy.

Thanks

Jinnpo: If you look at the trailer I\'m pretty sure Jeremie is using differing mini\'s to define differing aspects, so there would be no need to buy 12 mini\'s.
In any case the demonstrations he is gving should be equally applicable to any miniature.

@ jinnpo, exactically what DR said but.....if you fancie having some fun, get the dvd check out the mins and buy a couple to go along with, (no point buying them all unless you are a mini whore, and lets face it most people on here are lol)

I once tried this with Cyrils Tut on the Glowing eye effect was damn hard but very rewarding,

Cheers,

Even though a dvd is region free, chances are it will still not play in US dvd players. The US standard is NTSC, and europe uses the PAL format. The dvd will still play fine in most computers, just not on TV dvd players.

@bignastyshark, yep, I think mini whore describes me perfectly, so I think I was looking for an excuse to buy some in the same order, but think I will follow yours and DR\'s advice and see what I can do with some of the other bare metal in my flat first.

Thanks for all the help.

To answer jinnpo:
About 4 minis in the DVD are painted from start to finnish in the DVD, the others are only used for certain specifique parts.

I got my copy today!

I opened a can of beer :D and inserted the first DVD to my computer\'s DVD drive.

I wish I had spent more time learning french in high school as there are problems with the english subtitles during artist\'s foreword to the DVD set.

Some problems with the DVD menus too.


However, the actual content, the tutorials, are dubbed in english and very easy to follow.

My first impression is that this is quite good product despite some minor problems.

When sending out the first instalment of DVD\'s in Italian and Spanish, and on NTSC
home DVD player (Northern America, a part of southern America and Asia:
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTSC), we saw the DVD\'s included some bugs.
We apologize for any inconvenience and we will reserve this first batch of copies only for
French and English speaking countries (outside NTSC zone).
We will contact the customers already in possession of one of these DVD once a compatible version is ready in their language. It should be done in September.

The French and English DVD, compatible with NTSC players, are expected for the weekend of Gencon Indy from the 14th to 17th of August 08. Even if this first version is not NTSC ready,
there is no problem to read it on an usual computer as long as you have a regional decoder.

Some bugs appeared on the first version of this DVD but they don\'t harm the use of the discs. They\'re now reserved for the French and non-NTSC English market. Here is a list a bugs and solution: the first DVD is in fact the second one and the same for the second DVD, which is in fact the first (labels have been reversed). Some Spanish subtitles appear sometimes but it
doesn\'t interfere with the French and English dubbing.
It\'s only a visual problem.
Inside the part about the metallic, the step by step method about the TMP blade leads to the NMM chapter again. So the TMP chapter will be available on our website. TIP: go on the NMM blade step by step. Once this one started, use your remote controller or your keyboard to go to the previous chapter. This way you will go to the TMP step by step blade.

From your computer, you can directy found the video. It’s the file VTS_32_1.VOB.

Best regards,
The Kraken Team.

My answers :
I not paint all the minis. I use them for severals parts. But I show them finished everytime with final pictures

The English part is with a voice. Not subtitles. So when some Spanish subtitles arrives, its bad cause you see them, but you always listen the voice.
Sorry for everythibg, but we’ll contact all buyers on our website to change the DVD next month. Sorry sorry sorry sorry
I am very sad of this new… but we’ll correct perfectly this mistake.
