Same actually, it didn’t look quite how I expected but it actually has some very fine grain patterns that don’t show up well in the pictures. With the way it’s finished it almost looks more like some kind of shiny gem stone than bone, but maybe that’s how ivory always looks. I also have a Ralf aust that I put bison bone scales on and they definitely look more matte and “boney” for lack of a better word…
Thanks so much for the detailed reply! If my first attempts are abysmal, is it possible to strip the paint off and start over without damaging the mini? These are all plastic from AGoAC and the clan invasion kickstarter–I don’t have any of the old metal IWM ones.

AFAIK it’s not that easy to access data on the machine while it’s running unless they can bypass the lock screen. People pick stupid passwords for their user accounts so it’s totally possible to get in in those cases, but otherwise dont you need really sophisticated side channel attacks to get data out of memory on locked system? It’s not like there is some port on the MOBO you can just plug into to get access to RAM
