Two things with that stuff. 1) Use blutac to remove it, never rub. 2) Let the paint dry 24 hours or put a clear coat in a thin layer on before you mask. I've been there. I feel your pain.

Thanks Zab. I used blutac to get it off. But I learned that it was partly my error too.

* should have let it try as you said at least 24 hours.
* used hair dryer for faster drying. Maybe this made the silicone melt into the colors...
* tried to get things of with a pin, making scratches...

Well, errors like this are there to learn...the hard way..

This is where Im at with the heads now. Maybe its the revenge of the daemon that I messed her head up. DAMN YOU DAEMON!!
Did I mention that the airbrush spilled with last purple coat? :)?

Well, of we go with traditional techniques today. Paint and Brush!

Man if you painted metal or little points of OSL on those chips she would look like a robot or like a ghost...

Good idea Zab. When I started to paint this miniature I was thinking about painting target circle eyes and SciFi style too. But I decided to go with normal Iris and my own idea of fantasy world.
Now a cyborg look wouldnt fit to my idea. And the 99% finished base is rather fitted for fantasy figures.

Soooooo... Ahem. I am, well, done...

Yes I finished my mini today. Had a mate over for a painting day, and I hit a groove. Had SO much fun, I am priming the rest of my Panoceania tomorrow.

Now wine. I could call it celebration, but I never need an excuse for wine :D

Hi guys. Painting finished and did photoshoot at friends place once again. Not sure if the black background is okay or maybe to obscure? What do you guys/gals think? Happy weekend by the way!! :)
