I\'m selling a Vallejo Game Color 72 box set that has been used only a dozen times or so. I have too much paint for myself to use so I\'m thinning out my collection. You get all the colors that I recieved in this set along with some others I\'m throwing in. Most of the colors are used but some...

I’m not a mean person, but when it comes to people stealing from me I get fed up. When you take a person’s food, the first time may be a mistake. The second time is selfish, but the fourth, fifth and sixth times are just plain inexcusable. While I’m away from school for the summer break, I work...

I had a pretty good discussion with one of my modeling/painting buddies today. He\'s all for GW paints while I paint with Vallejos. I\'m just trying to get a general consensus about what people use just out of curiousity. What do you like about the paints you use, what don\'t you like about...

Here he be. A bit ugly I know, but I\'m finally finding time to sit down and paint again. Comments and criticism are greatly appreciated.

I was out running today along the long networks of bike trails we have here in \"mining country\" when I passed by this sign. The locals have an affinity for shooting stuff, so this was no suprise. I\'ve seen bullet holes before, but I thought I\'d post this in case people need references to...

Howdy everyone! I\'ve been working on some minis, which you can see in the WIP, and I had a concern about the paint drying glossy on a mini. I\'m currently building up the basecoat on a chapter master and I noticed in some spots its drying rather glossy. I\'m using Vallejo Game color paints...

It has started. Since I\'ve given up WoW I\'ve gone back to painting. I\'m becoming better and better at each day so I\'ve decided to go and tackle two projects at once. First up on the block is this guy: He\'s a possessed champion. He\'ll be on a base with a disemboweled corpse below...

I get up at 4:30 on weekday mornings, go for a run, come back, eat breakfast and head off to work which starts at 6:00 AM and ends at 2:00 PM. I come home and I\'m usually beat. I\'d like to paint minis whenever I can, but I can only really do it on the weekends. I\'d love to be able to paint...

When many painters start out, they tend to put on too much paint. As I\'ve matured painting-wise, I\'ve learned it\'s much better to go thin and then build up. After reading through some articles, viewing some tutorials, and even watching some of the Miniature Mentor, I\'ve learned that you can...

Here\'s the start of my newest model. I recently found my new version of the Dark Angels codex and became absorbed with the storyline and artistry in the book. Here\'s the start of it. I\'m looking to add binding washes to the cape and the armor. He\'s going to be standing in a ruined heap...

Howdy everyone! I\'m having a we bit of trouble getting blending down. I\'ve looked at the tutorials here and I still fail to achieve any sort of result. Does anyone know any good practice exercises that could help me accomplish this? I\'d be incredibly grateful. Thanks!

My name is Jake and I\'m a recovering World of Warcraft addict. WoW has well over 8 million players. While the idea of playing the game seems incredibly dumb, it\'s extremely addicting. At this moment, I\'m looking at dropping the game for good. While half of my mind yells at me to drop the...

Well I got a mini done. It\'s the first one I\'ve done in a while. It looks pretty good and people from my local shops want me to paint for them. The photography isn\'t that good yet as I\'m still learning. Comments are greatly appreciated. If there\'s something I could improve, tell me so...

Happy Friday Painters! This past week I have been extensively working on painting a space marines chapter master when I noticed that he\'s starting to look more and more chalky. I\'ve been trying to use washes of gray/black to create a medium that makes the layers blend easier but I appear to...

Fellow painters! I\'m back in the painting loop and I\'ve made some progress on my new minis I\'ve been working on. After reviewing many of the lovely submissions, I\'ve astounded by one thing: realism! I want to know, how do you do it??? Is there a tutorial out there for a such a thing...

Fellow painters, Well I\'ve been back in the fold now for a few months and I\'ve been getting better and better. Recently I\'ve been obsessed with achieving realism in my models. I mainly paint Warhammer 40k models and sell them, but rather than making them all shiney and pristine, I\'d rather...

Fellow painters, I\'ve finally gotten back into my painting hobby but have hit a terrible snag: I think I\'ve lost my rythm. I\'m terrified. I\'ve gotten really good at posing my models again, working with green stuff, and have become very good with bases. My painting is my low end now and I\'m...

Hello fellow painters. I\'m new to the forums, but not to the CMON site. I\'m having to move into my new place and have discoverd I have way too much paint that I hardly ever use anymore, so my loss is your gain. Alot of the paint has been used just a few times. The outsides of the bottles may...
