    Question about Sanguinius Artwork

    Okay so I've been searching online for info on Sanguinius and I found some good stuff out there like the Lexicanum and other places. I also found some artwork and noticed the majority portray him as wearing some sort of fur. Can anyone tell me exactly what this is? It's kinda hard to tell as...

    Super Glue and Baking Soda = Instant Cement!

    I've mentioned this several times in other threads and other folks have tried it and have been surprised. :D I thought I'd make a little thread on it so it would be (hopefully) a bit more obvious. In the model horse hobby, we use super glue (CA glue) and baking soda all the time. Baking soda is...

    Having fun with photo-realistic bases

    Just a real quick post, I'm so tired I can't think straight. I started playing around with a couple of ideas and hit on this. Run some stuff through my editing software effects filter, resize to the metric equivalent that I need (in this case 50mm) and print. If I had some genuine 50mm rounds...

    My first 40k style mini WIP

    I decided to go ahead and start a different thread for this one because it has nothing to do with horses or even WFB. (I think I just heard someone fall over in shock.) This is my first 40k style mini. From Scribor it's the Archangel. I know it's hideous - not the mini - the mini is a...

    Apoxie<=>Epoxie = STICKY MESS!

    I know threads abound about Apoxie, Epoxie, GS, Magic Sculpt, et al. but I wanted to see if we could talk about the behaviors of the different types and solutions to situations. Heck maybe we could even make a sticky out of the post about sticky stuff! I really have a hard time with various...

    Water Effects: Who here has used them?

    Just curious because I finally got to use mine. Picked up a little box from Woodland Scenics called Scenearama. It's small versions of supplies for dioramas so you can try them out, only about $10 bucks and you get enough stuff to last awhile. Here's what I got so far. The bottom right pic...

    Chaos Knight as Storm King

    Well he's active - and out of the gate poorly - tripped and stumbled but hopefully won't fall flat on his face. Here's a couple of pics since the one on the voting site is so long. The ebay auction is set to kick off later today but I don't know...I'm so nervous...I don't know what to...

    Thought I'd give Arwen another shot

    It seems like folks really like her or really hate her. Not sure why, her horse has made numerous appearances in my Painting Horses articles with great success. This is the first completed mini I successfully did NMM on before I had to quit painting for a spell. I thought I'd give her another...

    Any bug/caterpillar gurus out there? It's eating my plants!

    These things are destroying my plant! I've got a flowering four foot tall Devil's Trumpet and when I left for work this morning it was loaded with blooms and leaves. When I came home it's nothing but twigs! In about 10 hours about six of these suckers stripped it completely. They are...

    Retail Therapy: Post some new minis

    I had the week from hell and it culminated in a serious database issue that I had to deal with in the middle of month end accounting - what a Friday! I usually hit 42 hours at noon but this time I was there until 4. I was tired and couldn't think straight. I have to admit being bummed that most...

    Aw man - I didn't think the price would drop that fast!

    So I'm working on my Chaos Knight, and I jump over to the store to look at a picture for quick reference and his price has already dropped $8.00. :crying: I jumped at the chance to order one as soon as I found out about it. But I thought it would be at least 30 days before the price dropped. Oh...

    What are the top contests/awards for artists?

    What contests/awards are out there that "make or break" (painting, sculpting, conversion, etc.) artists. I mean the ones that put them over the top in professionalism. Okay, like there's GD, of course, I would think that's a pretty darn big award but I don't know the details about it. Do you...

    I'm probably going to regret this....

    But I bit the bullet and decided to submit one of my horses. It's a collage of the one in my avatar. I submitted her this morning and was stunned that she's already approved - we got some rockin' and rollin' mods! Thank you! http://www.coolminiornot.com/280308 Thus far, I see one registered...

    Horse Trading! List of Resins! FS/FT

    A lot of people are curious about these equine resin models as they aren't kits and there's no assembly required. They are a white resin that is VERY different than minis/figures you know and love. There is no sprue to deal with, only very small seam lines, no flash, and the prep work on these...

    This time it's BASES! Micro Art, Enigma, Wyrd, Dragon Forge Design

    I cleaned out a box I stumbled over yesterday and while I really like these - I'll never get around to painting them. Besides, the type of figures and painting I'm doing now, if I do need a base, I'll have to incorporate it into a plinth anyway. These are brand new still in the blister or...

    Tools of the trade

    Who has just an x-acto, a sculpting tool, some green stuff, a couple of brushes and some paint and can knock out some great looking minis? Me, I collect the tools as much as the minis. I got sanding stuff, a boatload of Green Stuff, P3, Apoxie Sculpt, Fix it Sculpt, Apoxie clay. I've got...
