This is a completely pointless post, really, because most people\'s response will be along the lines of \'who cares?\' or \'I should get my significant other to do this\' which will incur the wrath of many upon me... Got home from work, and set to cleaning up my work area. Organizing things...

For me, anyway... Going out for a smoke break at work (yes, I know, smoking is bad for me), I spied a small stack of books on a bench, with a small post-it note over them reading \'Free Books\'. Top of the pile... Digital Photography For Dummies... I may be able to post some quality pics if...

We\'ve had a couple of \'Great service\' threads. Alas, I am now forced to post on the other side of the spectrum. I am extremely disappointed. Nay, angry. Eastern Front Studios is the culprit of my ire. I placed an order in early april with them. I registered, and still have my confirmation of...

Let\'s all thank the \"barbecue?\" thread for this idea.... I\'m sure we\'ve all cooked something, experimented in the kitchen, and all... I\'ve already posted a recipe in the barbecue thread, for home-made hamburgers... What\'s your specialty, and how do you make it? Reposted here, my...

Right, then.... This is what I\'d actually consider step three, but I hadn\'t taken any pictures prior to this. Step 1: Filing off the mini for smoothness. Step 2: Primer. This is step 3, in my mind. The beginnings of the flesh-tones (photographed for OSL shading guiding as best as I was...

It\'s been a while since I\'ve added to these ideas.... this time, it\'s mixing pots. GW sells their empty bottles, and then there\'s palettes that can be bought at fairly moderate prices... but here\'s another of my silly but cheap things I do... Tea candles. A hundred for a dollar in a...

They come in a set of three. Two guitarists, and a drummer. I have the two guitarists, picked up in an Ebay auction, but I don\'t have the drummer. I\'m looking to complete my set. Can anyone help me?

Well, we\'ve been asked about music and asked about pets, and asked to PAINT ourself, or post pictures of ourselves... So how about a Favourite Colour Scheme poll? What colours do you like to work with most?

http://www.coolminiornot.com/84769 I did the best I could with photography on this guy. Four attempts to post him before I got the right file up (serves me right for naming them all so similarly). He\'s up for auction, but from the look of it, I put the number in before the auction started, so...

Yes, I\'m congratulating myself outlandishly.... but, I do feel somewhat justified. Without advertising, without having a clue it was coming... I have gotten my first commission for painting a mini! YAY ME! Getting paid for this makes me a professional, right? Or do I actually have to support...

http://www.coolminiornot.com/84314 I did this Reaper Palace Guard this morning. She was sitting there, all primed and glued together, and I decided (in a fit of random craziness) to see what I could do with 2 hours before I went to bed (I work nights, so yes, that makes sense). First, I broke...

Now, what we have here is a piece done by my wife, actually, and not myself. There WILL be an account made for her, soon, so that her decidedly better work doesn\'t muck up my own feeble standings. www.coolminiornot.com/84194 Anyway, she\'s eager to hear what anyone thinks about her work, just...

Right, then. I went and overspent. Bought myself a camera, which I\'m still learning how to use... So, slightly grainy photo, and incomplete work as it says, but looking for constructive criticism on what\'s done so far. This piece will not be posted in its completed form, here, but will be...

That\'s right. I\'m looking for other painters that live in or about the Toronto Canada area. Anyone...? Anyone...? I\'m interested in possibly meeting and getting more pointers on my work (yes, I still have to buy a camera that will take decent pictures ... blame my glasses breaking and costing...

Right, then. I\'ve been saying for long enough that pictures of my work are coming soon. I\'m going camera shopping, this weekend, and I want a /good/ one. But I know absolutely nothing about these things. I\'m looking for recommendations of a decent camera in the range of $300-$500, and I\'d...

A couple of days ago, I posted about using Emery Boards for filing, and got a surprising number of both affirmative responses, and additional ideas for filing. Thanks to all who contributed to that thread. Got a new \'low budget\' idea, which I just tried out today, and it worked great. I\'m...

It\'s the new guy again. This is a small personal beef I have, and you can all disregard it completely, if you\'re so inclined. Looking at the votes given for the models on display and the like, and I\'m seeing a fair number of lower ratings on some minis that may or may not deserve the numbers...

Apologies from the new guy, if I\'m posting to the wrong place here. Hi, everyone, and \'Wow\' to many of the minis I\'ve looked at here. Now, to my point.... There\'s a lot of good tools out there for filing down minis to get rid of those little tags, or the seams where they stick out a...
