That'd be my preference too. I think it's an age related thing.

That plus I don't think resin will stand the test of time....I believe it will degrade over the years and put lead rot to shame  :(

I've heard something similar but couldn't get to the root of it. I honestly believe that this is a myth as I haven't seen anything close to lead rot with resin.

I much prefer metal. I really really must want a miniature if it only comes in resin.

Here's a few more additions to Westfalia's fantasy range.

First off, an old school type kobold (with alarming willy).






Next is a very nice female fighter sheltering under her shield.






And last but definitely not least, a superbly posed female thief. Casting in resin does have its advantages!

Good figures, good painting. I really should have done the ks...

And a vote for resin. Which is fine as long as you don't leave it near anything hot.

It wasn't me. Honest. This big monkey did it and ran off.

Yeah, if I'm honest I prefer metal 90% of the time, but sometimes you do get a lovely sculpt that just needs to be resin. The crisp simple details on these guys make them a pleasure to paint.
