Hello all, I\'ve decided to upgrade my airbrush. I PM\'d airhead and he made some reccomendations for models and suppliers. My primary use is for basecoating 28mm and painting 15mm armor with soft edge camo. I am also contemplating using my airbrush for some rudientary highlights at 28mm (I...

A couple guys here in town are trying to get a little blood bowl action going. Great! Gives me a reason to paint up the scads of these figs I got laying aorund. Here\'s the start. Team colors are red and white (The Gouged Eye classic colors!). It\'s a crap pic, but here\'s some fleshtones I...

Anyone got any hints and tips for painting bruises on Orc\'s? I\'ll post a pic of what I am working on tonight but my flesh is predominantly Catachan green lightened though steps up to desert yellow. Shaded with GW green and purple washes. Any advice or tips?

Okay, look, not trying to piss any (more) people off but the topic of siniping has come up again and I just want to know if it\'s possible to actually do it. Just some simple questions and I don\'t really want to debate what sniping is or if it happens. -I thought there was a filter that...

Me Baby. Actually after the post asking who number one was I checked my ranking just in case it was me. It was not. However last time I checked my rank was about a month ago, and it was about 3800 and change. Since then I think I\'ve only submitted 3 or 4 models, all of which weren\'t all...

Anyone know of a GOOD reliable shipper of this product from inside Canadian Borders? By good I want someone who won\'t.... -let my paint freeze -Ship what they say they will when they say they will -Not back order the beejezis out of my stuff. I\'m fed up with ordering from the States, at...

This was a small, fun fig to paint. Really enjoyed it. Positives.... -I think my metal improved (slightly). Feel free to LMK if you think there still a little junky! -I experimented with purple in the skin tone, both in the basecoat and in a couple successive washes through the process. I...

Hey, it\'s -44 celsius here in Saskatoon and I was just wondering what the weather is like in your own little area of the Earth. It\'s cold enough here that you can take a wet towel, wring the water out, throw it in the air and it will land frozen solid. Neat trick!

Hey, I\'m painting up this fig for my army. Cool model, and I am trying the purple wash tech out on the skin. Below are the pic\'s. I would call it the skin done but am happy for more tips. I started with some catachan green equivalent with about 1/4 of hormagaunt purple. I brought the...

I\'m calling this one quits. I got some excellent feedback from Darklord about some things I could do to improve the details of this model, but in the end I just want to move on to something else. I am more or less pleased with it. I was aiming for a more subtle shade/highlight on the...

Hey, I\'m about to call this one finished but I thought I\'d pool some opinions. It\'s for an online challenge against EldinTux. Any suggestions?

Hey, I heard someone in another thread state they use a Raphael brush and prefer it over their W&N series 7. I love my Series 7 and can\'t imagine a better brush but I figure I\'ll order some of those. problem.... -Excuse the Ignorance but Raphael is the brand name, and not some sort of new...

So I wanted to work on something a little different. I love Flames of War and thought I\'d start my Tonkovy Battalion for that game. It\'ll be mostly T-34\'s so I wanted to start there. I don\'t know how many starts and stops I\'ll have during this project but for now I was looking to bust...

Hey, I finished this guy off this afternoon. Could have used more time and effort on the shading I think, but the highlighting looks to moe to be a step forward. On to the next one, and more improvements to come. All in all I don\'t think this is anything to write home about. Myself I...
