Rage Resin Models is the range with which AK Interactive entered the world of fantasy figures for wargames. It is built on the sculpts of Raul Garcia Latorre and his brand Enigma – his classic figures, now cast in resin by master Verdier. Yürgen, Bad Pipe is a 35 mm figure from that range. The 35 mm scale is a wargaming scale, so the figure is not built for the display cabinet alone – it is meant to be picked up. That is worth keeping in mind while painting: seal it with a matt varnish when finished, and weight the base so it does not topple on the table.

Resin needs a primer – paint will not hold without one. Painting is done with AK 3rd Generation acrylics or Ionic Smart Colors, and brushes are in the da Vinci category. The base is finished with AK textures and vegetation.
Does painted resin stand up to play?
With primer underneath and a matt varnish on top, yes. The weak points are thin protruding parts – those break in a fall long before the paint wears through.
What varnish should be used?
A matt acrylic varnish in two thin coats. One heavy coat floods the detail, and on a fantasy figure that shows immediately.
Does it come painted?
No, it is supplied unpainted and without a base.
