Where do they come up with these people? slightly NSFW link

I just ran across this video tonight and thought, given our recent debates, that it was something for us all to get a laugh out of. For those of you who participated, or just watched the debate, you\'ll recognize such familiar elements as christianity, atheism, polity, and even hitler lol This...

Story link NOTE: Slight NSFW pic Thoughts?

Alright, here\'s my random rant for the day: I\'m am getting really sick of this whole obsession with being green. I\'m all for environmental responsibility but it seems to me that it is becoming more and more of a fashion statement and it\'s growing to absurd levels. Everything is green...

Anyone heard the name? I just got wind of this guy today and I am having a hard time collecting my thoughts on him. I think what I\'m most amazed by is the number of people who espoused (and continue to) his allegations and stood by them as truth. Because of course, a time traveller who...

So yesterday, I show up at my office as usual, preparing to manage the assets of my clients and weather another day in this crazy market. About 9am, a whole friggin\' army of suits from the upper eschalons of the company came in and asked to see me in a side office conference room (typically...

I have almost exclusively primed my minis in black (though oddly enough the only two I\'ve posted here were ones I did in white) mainly because when I prime black I end up with a nice smooth, even surface to paint on. When I prime white the surface with just the primer looks a little chalky...

I\'ve tried to leave comments on a mini or three today and it won\'t let me. Keeps telling me something about needing to validate. ??? I\'ve been a member for some time now...any thoughts on how I can fix this?

So I\'ll be attending ReaperCon in May for the first time (at any convention) and I plan to enter several categories in the painting comp. In the official rules on the site it states that your entry cannot have appeared online or in major publications like magazines or have been entered in any...

For those of you who take them (and actually get some every now and then :innocent:), how does one get started and drum up some business? It\'s not something I\'d like to do full time or anything, but I figure part time might be interesting. So how does one get their first commission?

My wife has informed me that she is sending me to ReaperCon for my birthday! It\'ll be the first convention I\'ve ever had the privilege of attending. I\'m pretty stoked about it. She\'s a good lady. :D Anyone else going?

Are there any magazines that cover historical minis and have articles on painting etc? Print or web-based. ...and preferably in English. Links?

I\'ve had it up to my eyeballs with my Windows based laptop and my wife and I are thinking of buying a macbook this evening. Just out of curiosity, will the macbook run applications like WoW, etc? or is the resource handling capability insufficient? Most traditional laptops stuggle with games...

I was just looking at Alexi Z\'s new model for the newbold auction and it is predictably beautiful. Does anyone know how she manages to achieve the texturing effect she does on so many of her models cloth parts? I am always blown away by it as it looks so beautiful and soft but doesn\'t just...

I\'ve noticed many of you have your ranking listed in your signature. How does one go about adding this little tidbit? Or for that matter how does one find out this information? And can the information be located about a painter other than oneself????

I\'ve been poking around CMON for a while but I haven\'t officially posted any of my work because up until now I have had a really hard time getting a handle on photography/image editing. Well, I just posted my first three submissions. The pics still aren\'t perfect, but they\'re a major...

I know the photo still isn\'t perfect but I\'m headed in the right direction. Here\'s the official first piece of my work I\'ve posted here. The colors aren\'t exactly right because I still haven\'t figured out my image editing software, but the background should be pure white and all of the...

After nearly two years of trying and reading and trying again and reading again...and with much help from many of you here on these forums, I have finally managed to get a good shot or two of my work to post! My pics are currently imprisoned within my wife\'s camera and as soon as I figure out...

Been a little while since I posted a goofy thread just for fun and being as I\'m all bored tonight...I thought...\'why not?\' So here goes. Make your choice: caption, or better yet photoshop this pic of Dick Cheney. Difficulty: No shotguns allowed. ....and go.

My painting has really progessed by leaps and bounds since I began a few years ago and my wife pointed out to me that my bases have not really kept up. (I typically base with sand, static grass...and for my really SPECIAL projects, maybe a touch of clump foliage here and there...that\'s it). To...
