Start painting miniatures for less with Cyber Monday deals on Amazon
27.11.2023 - 20:35 / polygon.com
If you’ve been thinking about getting away from screens this holiday season, you might want to look into painting miniatures. Just a little effort can really spice up your favorite board game, or bring your favorite Dungeons & Dragons character to life. We’ve even got a handy guide to get you started. Best of all, everything you need to begin your journey — or encourage someone else to start theirs — is on sale for Cyber Monday at Amazon. So let’s get started! (Imagine me throwing stuff in your cart as we roll along).
First you’ll need some brushes. Don’t think too hard about it, because you’re likely to ruin them on your first go around. So let’s grab something functional that isn’t all that expensive.
Here, this 10-piece set even includes some big ol’ drybrushes! And it’s a steal at $12.74.
Prices taken at time of publishing.
Ergonomic grips and lots of good reviews make this a no-brainer for getting started. You’re gonna trash ‘em anyway.
You’ll also want a wet palette. It sits on the desk next to your paints and helps keep your paints nice and moist while you move from color to color.

A sponge and a lid — that’s all you really need in a wet palette to get started. BYO parchment paper, tho, as sometimes the paper that comes in these kits is a bit sketchy.
Paint. Obviously we need paint… Oh! This’ll do! Wargames Delivered has bundled up a great starter set from The Army Painter. No fancy techniques required for these as they’re not Contrast-style paints — just some traditional acrylic paints in a broad range of colors. It even includes a brush-on primer so you don’t need any spray paint at all!
Prices taken at time of publishing.
An excellent selection of name-brand paints for plastic or resin miniatures.
Finally, you’ll need a hobby knife, clippers, and a sanding sponge to clean up those mold lines. You still can’t beat the price on this Dungeons & Dragons licensed starter set from WizKids.
Prices taken at time of publishing.
Everything you need for prep work, including a hobby knife, sprue nippers, and a handy little sanding sponge.
Be sure to check out my exhaustive guide to painting miniatures, which includes details on all the latest techniques like “slapchop,” drybrushing, and more. And if you’re feeling really fancy, we also have a guide to airbrushing as well.

You can now use a DualSense with your PS1 and PS2 for less thanks to Cyber Monday
I love retro controllers, but even I'm eager to get my hands on 8bitdo's Retro Receiver for PS1 and PS2. As much as I'm into hardware preservation, I can't blame anyone for wanting to play retro PlayStation games with a modern gamepad. So, rather than trying to use a pad that has been the victim of FIFA rage throughout the years, you'll want to pick the receiver up while it's cheaper for Cyber Monday.
