After my VA marine went up someone suggested a cheerleader. I think it would be a good idea. I would like a suggestion of a mini to use. I would like something dressed like the CMON amazon (in fact I have a couple of them unpainted that may end up that way) but I\'d like something without a...

My wife has decided she wants to collect the childrens book series from the British Isles starring Jill and her ponies. We\'ve looked on Ebay and could get them one by one but the shipping becomes a real issue then. So, do any of you in the UK have the whole series and are willing to sell, or...

I have recently discovered a totally new use for that famous medium FFF. So here\'s the situation: I am at home and people are coming over. I need to tidy stuff up and put things away. As I\'m digging under the sink I see we are out of pine-sol. Horror. What to do? Well, I remember that in...

I like to flatter myself and think there are one or two of you interested in what I\'ve been up to. I have finally done my first NMM. I was forced into it by circumstances. I also did a fun fully metallic mini. As always I\'d be thrilled to hear what you have to say. HeroQuest Orks HeroQuest...

If you want to see something completely different from the usual fare here on CMON, I have painted another horse christmas ornament. This time I went with metalics! My horsie

I have a bunch of figs I thought I\'d paint and try to sell on ebay but wondered if anyone would bid since I don\'t hear anyone talking about this game.

I never thought I\'d want to reproduce a pepsi ad in minature, but with the soundtrack of We Will Rock You thrumming in the background I could just see painting up little Britney, Pink and Beyonce gladiators. I\'m looking forward to the SuperBowl for once.

This has absolutely nothing to do with minis and is just something that came up recently. I think a lot of people don\'t know the answer. What are the 12 days of Christmas?

Actually, there are several. I should probably wait until I can post the original art I am using as a model but I\'ll give a go anyway. There are 16 pictures that I am trying to find minis to match. I\'ve succeeded in all but a few. The hardest to get anywhere close to is an old hag. She...

Does anyone know of a forum or list somewhere besides here that would be a good place for advertising the game and miniatures sales I\'ve got going on ebay?

Does anyone know a way to search the Reaper site? They have a search box at the top, but it doesn\'t seem to do anything. Say I want to see all of their \"of the blade\" women. Is there a way to search \"of the blade\"? Right now I\'m trying to find out what their blue orhcid assassin is but...

I know it\'s not really minis, but it\'s related and lots of folks here are familiar with it. So, I\'ve finally decided to let my old 2nd edition Talisman game go. My question is, if I sell it on eBay am I more likely to get a better price if I sell it all as one? or if I break it into the...

In case you have missed it, here\'s the URL miniature-painting I\'m posting this because Dominic was kind enough to add my entry to the gallery even though it was late. I had the deadline written down wrong and rushed to do it one night only to discover I was too late afterall. Eventually...

I\'ve made more progress on one of my personal projects and want to direct your attention to it. Anyone remember the old game Space Hulk that sort of spawned 40K tabletop gaming? You had Terminators v. Genestealers in the narrow corridors of abandoned giant space ships with lots of nifty...

Sandra Garrity has her lates GODs series piece out. I was disappointed in Cleopatra and could take or leave the Athena, but I really like the Moses. It\'s Heston from the movie poster!

Can anyone point me to any tutorials on how to make a large flat surface look like plywood? I have a very large, smoothe surface I want to appear to be wood, but not wooden slats or parquetry. Basically like lacquered plywood. It\'s not one I\'ve seen come up often.

I\'ve had my hand on the small stuff this summer. I\'d like to get some feedback. I have done 3 sets of warmaster minis for ebay and for my own learning experience. Please let me know what you think: Silverhelms Tiranoc Chariots Bolt Throwers I\'m disappointed now that I look that I...

So what are the bad habbits you know you shouldn\'t do, but can\'t seem to kick? (painting related I mean) For me, it\'s overloading my brush. I always get too much paint in the bristles and don\'t remove it before touching the mini, especially if I\'m not getting good coverage.

Okay, I\'m trolling for votes, but I honestly want comments too. Mainly because I can\'t see why she is worse than my dead head spearman. So, please, tell me what I could do better. Joan of Arc Dead Head Spearman And I know she\'s got fewer than 100 votes: thus the trolling. :D
