I feel the need, the need for feed...back

[Spanky]

Hey guys and gals,

I\'ve never started a topic before, or pimped my minis, but now I\'m doing both. I tried something new with this guy, and photoed with a new camera. Please let me know what your ideas are for this mini (or photography) in the comments or here at the forum. I really appreciate it.

cool!

what did you use to make the paint react to the UV lights?

 

[Spanky]

Flourescent paint by Valejo. Its difficult to use because its semi transparent. And white because it naturally reacts with UV. I had to mix with dark colors for shade and white for highlight.

Feed back?? Keep doing what your doing. Good stuff.

Very cool mini. I have played around with the Idea of using Flourescent paint, but have never found the right mini to do it on.

Hey! Dont I know you from Portent.net???

Nice mini though, gave it a nine

 

[Melsuzat]

Wowzers, i really like the shading on the front of his cloak. Me likey

 

[Ritual]

Good work there, worthy of an 8! Maybe you could have got some close-ups?

Cheers,
Anders

Very cool!
The paint job is worth an 8+ and I bumped it to a 9 because of the cool UV effects. I think it\'s great that you were able to pull those off without adversely effecting the paint job.

 

[Klute]

Yup a good 8
Ive also thought about flouro paint and glo in the dark.Looks cool.

feedback

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Ritual, I will work on some close ups, and maybe some lighter pics.
Donga I visit Portent, but I don\'t think I posted anything there. Is there another Spanky or a similar techpreist?
To eveyone else who thought about trying flouros, please do, I would like to see (then \"borrow\") your techniques. Mine can only be improved upon.
