Currently, What are you doing with your paper minis?? Do you play?? What game are you playing with your paper minis?? Do you collect them?? Do you build them or just collect the pdf?? Do you build everything or just what you need for play?? I´m too curious to know about it. I never play anything with my minis, when i play D&D the other players prefer plastic minis, but i built several minis just like a collection. I want to try with Song of bades and heros to introduce paper minis in my friend circle.

Not having a cutting machine, i actually collect much more that what i build. Before my printer died this summer i was building a modded Ebbles "flyer" with a AT-43 UNA paint scheme (the lower right one) I plan to use it with THW 5150:SA (now resting on a shelf) and Bombshell Games "The Battlefield", 'cause i use AT-43 minis for them. Plans are to build the other "round" flyer as a Therians vehicles, and a couple of ground vehicles. I'm printing all the sci-fi paper minis i have to grab a photoprinting shop discount, but they'll stay in a drawer for years, i bet. I'd build IMMEDIATLY moder soldiers and civilian/insurgents, but there's no such a serie in paper minis. So i have GBytes of PDFs, and perhaps 20 figures mounted, not counting IntoTheFray figures.

I'm modding topdowns (I forget who did the originals ) for a Savage Worlds game I'm setting in Venice and using canal tiles that Affet shared on the Fat Dragon forums.

I DM for D&D 4e. I build ahead for each adventure. I make minis fit for immediate use, or if they get my attention. Storage is a big problem for me, so I like fold-flat stuff.

I play GURPS X-COM, with the Terra Force minis standing in for the X-COM soldiers. I need more X-com aliens.
Also I play GURPS Bunnies and Burrows, with many animal miniatures. Half of them I had to make myself. A dozen different bunnies, some foxes, etc... Thanks for the farm animals hoard and various rats, people!
And I play Song of Blades and Heroes. Then I use all that medieval fantasy miniatures. I even flatbased som 300 point teams of them. Dwarfs, Orks, Humans and Elfs.

I have made some test builds of my own and some other stuff. I use paper minis and tiles/battlemats for rule testing/inspiration and actual gameplay (Solo or with others). They help me alot in visualizing scenes and critical situations (combats). They are no diorama sets for me, but practical game tools - so storage and comfort/durability are a must for me. Collecting them like stamps in a book would be aesthetically pleasing to me, though.
Game rules I am actually using: 1. D&D (Dark Dungeons Clone; 4th Ed.) 2. Open D6/Mini 6 3. Fantasy Craft 4. Basic Roleplaying (Chaosium)

I use mine for a Fantasy campaign using modified Savage World rules that has spanned four years of real time gaming practically ever Saturday night, and spanning almost five hundred years of campaign time.
I use many other artists' figures (besides Imperfect People) ranging from Okumart, Big Jim, Kiladecus, Sanity Studios, Jabbro Jones, and others, and scenery from Fat Dragon, World Works, Lord Zsezse, Dave Graffam, Inked Adventures, and my own. Often a scene is set up to give players a "feel" for where their characters are, other times the scene is used for actual combat and exploration.

As always, please use Imperfect People responsibly

Currently working on my own set of skirmish rules so I play those when I can to help refine them. Just what the world needs another home brew set of skirmish rules . Others wise SOBH, Fur & buttons or Flying Lead. Still building up my Mechs for Lost Reich. About to start playing a monster game once I get my z scale FDG capital city board finished. Not sure which rules Ganasha has a set and Ive picked up destroy all monsters and some others to try. Plan to use the scarier paper pokemon for monsters .

I mostly build paper minis and models to play something, mostly solo skirmish games.
Earlier this year I built a good amount of stuff but haven't done much in the past 3 months or so. Still, I have many PDFs with stuff I haven't built yet.

7ombie TV is a skirlish game or rpg?? First it's free. Then ... a zombie skirmish spin-off for 7TV ( stand-alone ) ... 7ombieTV provides a number of pre-generated characters suitable for play, as well as rules for the zombies and other horror-specific rules you’ll need. Also included are four episodes and cardboard terrain which will test your survival skills to the limit. These episodes are also suitable for playing solo if you want to pit your wits against the unthinking hordes alone. And finally we have included new Event cards and some new Scavenge cards to provide a much needed edge against the undead horde. This release is based on the Creature Feature horror rules originally written by Carl Stoelzel. ... These rules use the core action:engine mechanics in the 7TV core rulebook. However to best reflect the genre and maximise your enjoyment, there are some variations and new rules to give your games that authentic undead feel! .

7ombie TV is one of the Halloween-Goodies on Wargamevault. And i think it will suit the kind of Zombiegames i want to play a lot more than All Things Zombie. Only a few of the Survivors can at the start be equipped with firearms, but they can get them through the scavenge cards. Also it features zombie dogs, tank zombies, fast ones and leaders and not just only the romero shamblers.

Well, this will come as a surprise, but the ONLY game I have had time to play was "HOW QUICKLY CAN I GET THIS SET OF FIGURES OUT?" Naturally, ERA OF WAR is at the top of my list, folllowed closely by DUNGEON PLUNGIN', ROBOTS OF MASS DESTRUCTION and INTO THE FRAY. I wish I had MORE time, but only seem to be able to squeeze in time play one game a month. I have TOTES AND TOTES of Ebbles, Finger and Toe and Graffam's models, though! LOTS of great stuff out there. [EDIT: YES! My Doomball DOES have hurricane bolters mounted on it. This was a shot I took while playing ERA OF WAR a few months back.] Attachments:

Well, this will come as a surprise, but the ONLY game I have had time to play was "HOW QUICKLY CAN I GET THIS SET OF FIGURES OUT? Roll a d20 to complete this set, a 1? Ooh, tough luck, HDD crash. I've been in an infrequent campaign of Pathfinder for the last year, the GM doesn't really like terrain, but paper goblins, ghouls, bugbears, humans and zombies get a lot of playtime. Lately I've gotten to play a mashup Flying Lead/SBH/Mighty Monsters game that's being called 'Aftermath 1889'.
