I am apinting samourais and they look far too er... how do they call it in the US... Caucassian??? Here we just say \"pinkish\" :drunk::drunk: I read the article on skin tones and it\'s very useful, but my question is: how to japanify a middle of the road tone of skin? I think it should be more...

Well the title of this post is a bit over the edge as it\'s not about architecture per se but about the screen that are around the daimio as he sits during the battle - those are made of cotton or silk, with his mon on them. I bought some from the Perry Bro. and out of 11 2 have on one side what...

I\'ve tried using some 1200 Mr Surfacer as a primer and it\'s fantastic! Am I having hallucinations? Has anybody else tried this, had bad/good results?)

I just bought some minis from the Perry mùini site: from the samurai range, but mainly monks and people in everyday clothes. I mentionned that while with other gamers and they all said I was crazy as Perry minis are super tough to paint contrary to the work they do for GW. Is that true? I...

I can\'t FIND IT! I\'ve looked everywhere: where is that mini sculpted and painted by a Spanish artist: a big guy with one cyborg arm, a wet t-shirt, freehand on the back of his jacket... was he called an ogrin???? I WANT TO BUY ONE BUT CAN\'T FIND THE REF NOW THAT I HAVE THE MONEY FOR IT...

I\'m painting dwarfs (what, again?:duh:) and find myself stuck: I\'ve never painted nails before, and that is a problem as I\'ve worked from foundation flesh up to elf flesh without adding shadows - should I? for nails? and for the shadow of thick eyebrows over deep set eyes??? HELP!

I\'m using the future wash to get washes into the crannies (is that the right word???) and flow enhancer for everything else. Suddenly I ask myself: they do exactly the sale thing don\'t they???? And with the heat it might be useful to add some retarder to the water? Your opinions are most most...

I\'m painting my dwarf army and I\'m suddenly faced with a silly question - what is the \"look\" difference between the different types of slayers? I looked everywhere and could not find anything, I only could deduce that daemon slayers have a double blade axe, but outside of that I have NO idea...

I\'m about to paint a dwarf cannon (wh of course:twisted:) and I\'m realising I\'ve got no idea where to start: metalic will look disco on the large surface, non metallic metal is way to long as I\'m apinting a whole army. Would shades of grey work???? all ideas most welcome!!!

Sometimes when I drybrush (I rarely do it these days but I\'m painting 250 dwarfs so for the beards....) I get a clean result, sometimes a very powdery one. In both cases I have taken all the paint out of the brush in the same way. BUT I\'ve noticed that many times the dust effect happens when I...

I\'m currently painting a 250 minis dwarf army. I\'m begining to feel pain in my left wrist when I hold the base of the mini. I can tell that if I go on like this the muscel that links the ring finger to the elbow is going to cause me trouble. I have a nice system with pinch and screws to hold a...

I have several slayers - the type with nunchaku like things, with axes blades at the end of chains. After ten minutes of working with them (and I\'m a gentle worker :D) the chains broke in the middle or about. This is not only an artistic problem but also a real world one as, even if I was...

Hello, I\'ve just bought a \"wireless\" lol dremel - wonderful thing! Great tool. I don\'t have much experience working with a dremel, what bits and attachements should I buy for it, knowing that I work on 25/28mm plastic and metal minis and I do a lot of convs. What do you use, oh fellow...

I have tons of gwdwarf bits (except the leg-torso bits of course), as am building an army, would anyone be interested in trading bits? I also hae some orcish stuff cheers U.

I\'m at a loss: I know a bit about surface tension, but I cannot understand how the magic-wash works: some say it distributes the particles of paint evenly on the surface of the mini, some say it\'s great to get paint only and only in the cranies (correct word?) I can\'t see how the two are...

I\'ll be there, trying to resist temptations. Who will be there? I\'d love to meet you guys! cheers U.

Hello I\'ve bought a set of great looking resin bases (not a bubble in them! wonderful!), and I\'m about to assemble an Eldar unit that I plan to put on these bases for gaming. The problem is that the Eldars in question are in metal with a rail between their feet, and I don\'t know how to...

Hello, I\'ve got some very very good acrylic paints in stock - paints for painting on canvas etc - I\'m talking here about the Golden brand: almost pure pigment, a fantastic product. Could I use them for minis? All infos most welcome Usurpator (babe in the wood)

Hello, I\'ve just bought two privateer minis - the spriggan and the titan canoneer http://www.privateerpress.com/HORDES/gallery/default.php?level=picture&id=51 http://www.privateerpress.com/WARMACHINE/gallery/default.php?level=picture&id=120 I mean to put them in a diorama (ok I know they are...

I just found a shop that has some MP (miniature paint) pots - I\'m a newbie of sorts but I had never heard of this brand - any advice? Thanx U.
