Anything new in progress?
« on: June 03, 2011, 11:08:34 AM »
Hey guys,
I'm just posting to see what everyone has in the works? Has Rob painted another whole Clan by now?
I've about finished a mech I have been working on here and there. I also tried stripping the paint from a MWDA mni for the first time using a product called Green Strip or something like that (not Simple Green). It worked pretty well in less than an hour though a few recesses still have some paint. I never knew that the MWDAs were clear resin though I don't know why I expected dark plastic. I'm afraid this strip might melt the whole thing if you leave it too long as the bottle doesn't list plastic surfaces. But I rescued it in time (this time) anyway. I paniced for a second as all the paint had come off in a snotty looking goo that I thought for a second was the dissolved mini.  But not this time anyway.

Not much to show, been redoing a couple of mechs for the submission. It is finally in. Waiting for word, should be in a couple weeks.
Working on a Dragon for a Ghost Regt., finished a Warhammer IIc for the Blood Spirits, Hammerhands for the 5th Crucis Lancers. Have a Templar and Warlord started for the5th Crucis Lancers. There is a scorpion on the table for the Goliath Scorpions, has the base coat done. Other than that not much else.
Been looking at making some wall sections for 3d gaming. May try and get on that this weekend. Add to the terrain box. Never know when we will need some more terrain.

Sounds cool Phil, share some pics when you can. More terrain is always a good thing!

Working on my first fantasy minis in over a year...  My painting sucks, but this one isn't bad for only about the 20th mini I've ever painted.  Yet somehow I'm able to do better than average work on full size shields, see avatar.





Photo-fu sucks, still trying to find the option to turn the damn flash off.  2400 lumens of natural light color scale means never having to use a flash.
