To be fair, the quality looks good, and the DM Screen looks like it might actually be useful. I wonder if the dragon was made for them by Reaper, it looks like their kind of style.
A cheat for painting might be to slap on a primer & basecoat, then just put a wash over it to pick out the details. It's enough to get the figures onto the table without people going "ewww, plastic !" Then you can come back and use that as a basis for doing a proper job at a later stage.
