    Good online store to buy brushes and mediums etc in the UK?

    Just wondering who folk use to buy their supplies on-line? I\'ve had a look at a few, but always slightly nervous about using places I\'ve never done business with before. Thanks!

    Little mains powered rotary drill thing.

    In one of those \'\'Ooh, I\'ve thought about buying one of those for ages\'\' moments, I bought one today. Very small and came with a nice lots of bits. Now, seeing as I\'ve never used one of these things before, does anyone have any useful tips on using them? I can see myself acting out some...

    Starting up again...small.

    It\'s been around 3 months since I last took up the brush - far too long a time. Finally, the stars were in alignment and I managed to spend a very enjoyable couple of hours painting up the first of the new plastic Grotz. Nothing showy, just something to get the brush in. They are lovely...

    Jo Sonja Texture Paste - UK suppliers?

    Trying to locate a source for this stuff from anywhere other than the official UK Jo Sonja site HERE(- I refuse to pay £7.50 on postage for a small tub of gel! Anyone know of another UK source for the product at all? Thanks guys.

    Flesh tones - in the mood for different pots.

    I\'ve never been a huge fan of the GW fleshy tones and always tended to faff about with them to get something different. More recently I picked up a pot of P3 Midlund Flesh which has become quite a fave with me, although not especially for doing flesh tones with! Could folk do me a favour and...

    Ultramarine Vanguard Veterans

    Finished the buggers (in a record time for me too...between the booze, tea, food, dogs, gardening and other mundane real-life things they probably took around 12 hours the lot). Despite a multitude of mould lines and other flaws (not least the damn jump-packs - these things required some last...

    Space Marine Vanguard Veterans...

    Last week, I was chatting away to the guys at my local GW, and for some unfathomable reason (I think to avoid spending money!) I agreed to paint up the box of the new Veterans with Jump-packs. I had the forsight to have taken them whilst I knew I had a week off (this week), but boy did I forget...

    The Unfortunate demise of Harry the Beastman

    Well, I\'ve pretty much finished this one. It was a bit of a grind at the beginning, but I\'m fairly happy how it turned out. CMON LINK Bigger snaps can be found HERE

    Creating montages - a problem thereof...

    I\'m finally getting to grips with taking snaps of my minis, and single images are fine. The problem begins when I attempt to create montages with PS (or indeed any other one I\'ve tried) - I stick things together fine, but after saving the finished image, the whole thing seems to shrink in...

    The Skeleton and the Beastman...a mini project.

    Well, this is a mini project really. A very small scene comprised of...erm...a skeleton and a beastman. The beastman is losing :twisted: This is so early on in the thing that nothing major has been done at all. Lots of GS stuff to be done, and obviously the skeleton needs a blade plunging...

    The Pillar, the Bloodletter and the Terminator

    CMON LINK Fairly pleased how this eventually panned out. I always wanted to make sure that the scene fit onto the standard Golden Demon category rules - whether or not I entered it was not the point, I hasten to add - so I found it challenging to work it out within the base size restrictions...

    The Bloodletter, the Terminator and the Pillar

    Bit of a duel, going on here, and wanted to see how to approach the limits you have with the Duel category at GDs! So I went up a bit! The base is a stand-in at the moment, but the good thing is that it\'s spot on 50mm in diameter, so I can accurately get things in the right place. Which is why...

    The Kroot, the Tau and the Bloodletter.

    Been working on this one for a little while. Bit annoyed that my computer skills are momentarily deserting me and that I cannot stitch together the main picture and the details together, without the image shrinking. So, two links for you: Here and Here I post my originals here: Details:

    The \'DryTau\'...

    I kind of get bored easily, so a slightly different Tau ally was called for. I love the Dryad sprues - especially the heads, so an unholy mix was created and this was the result: A bit of fun at the end of the day! CMON link...

    Tau stealth bloke.

    Wow, I\'ve now got a grand total of 6 Tau figures painted! Oh well, it\'s not as if I\'ll ever use them in a battle, so time is not a factor ;) CMON Link

    Kroot...

    I\'m fairly pleased with, but it\'s a tough crowd at CMON ;)CMON link... Comments always welcome!

    Kommando Boss

    CMON LINK Fairly happy with it really - the photo is pretty terrible, as my camara has now decided to ignore all my normal settings, and I just couldn\'t get the lighting right (terrible, miserable day in the UK!). Still, I feel there\'s been a logical progression throughout the Kommandos...

    Yay! 4 Kommandos...

    CMON Link Gave myself a target to get them done before the day ends! On my way to the Big Boss now! Took lots of advice from previous entries - especially about the fact that there was a bit too much metal on them. So whilst I didn\'t do anything too deliberate, I did give the swords a...

    A pair of Kommandos...

    Link Getting there, although the latest one did get slightly rushed towards the end - I got to that point when I just couldn\'t put the damn brush down, and just was wanting to paint and paint and paint! Still not confident about doing anything other that your bog-standard base at the...

    Positioning a desk light for painting?

    Maybe it\'s my eyes (I never seemed to have this problem when I was younger...), but I just cannot get my light in the correct position for painting. Constant movements of the thing (it\'s one of those angle-poise ones, so it can move all over the place!) is getting annoying. Is there an...
