    Posting your photos - have a better solution?

    I had been using flickr and linking from them to post my pictures in the forums here but it hasn't been too friendly from my phone lately. I was wondering if anyone else has a good process they use from their phones to upload the pics of their work (especially if from their phone primarily)...

    Gallery links to incorrect picture?

    Is there a workaround for when clicking on a someone's gallery entry and it only takes you to what seems to be a random gallery entry other than the one it actually shows in the thumbnail pic?

    Zombicide cast quality question

    The latest zombicide theme has really caught my eye with the fantasy miniatures being shown. My one hangup that I'm not sure of to pull the trigger or not is how are the casts of the figures? I know this isn't meant to be the same quality of a showcase miniature since they will be produced in...

    Lots of Warmachine/Hordes - most factions. Looking for fun stuff to paint

    Trade only. Not looking to sell. I collected too many PP models and really don't have time to paint armies and painting is what I enjoy most so am just looking for interesting stuff that motivates me to paint! I do have some other stuff not listed if you are looking for a particular faction and...

    Centurion - first submission

    I'm counting this as my first submission here. I really don't remember submitting anything, or at least intending anyone to vote on the other two things in my gallery. Had so much fun again painting this warjack and learning a lot from the Painting Buddha videos. Feel free to tell me what you...

    Help in looking for a particular diorama

    I wanted to show a friend a couple of pieces I remember seeing from I can't remember when. They specifically had a cut away to see the miniatures (skaven on at least 1 of the pieces) tunneling underground. There was stuff happening above ground on the diorama too. It could have been another...

    Scherdy - following Cybersquig

    Well, I'm a little behind but never having done this before I'll work to catch up and any feedback is welcome. Here's the built armiture with first bits of clay. Seeing the need for something to compare measurements with...a compass I can lock in place or something or compare ratios on a...

    Airline travel and what they'll allow - any objections to this?

    So I'm flying out to see family which means a lot of time waiting around for relatives to show up, or scheduled events to roll around and without a car I'll mostly be stuck where we are staying. So to keep sane and distracted from what can be the worst and also the best part of the holidays...

    Magic Smooth - anyone used this?

    This place http://www.tapplastics.com/shop/category.php?bid=34& is local for me and they carry both Magic Sculp and another product called Magic Smooth. They were out of all but the largest (20 lb I think) quantities of Magic Sculp and said they Magic Smooth was basically the same just..well...

    White or black primer?

    I wasn\'t sure if I should put this in the painting forum since it does involve paint. We all have our preferences and reasons but maybe he posted here about which color to use before he made his decision. This guy has really thought it through.

    Next color to highlight - ?

    Here is the sword which is my first real shot at trying to do blending by using really thin layers of paint (sorry, I know there\'s a word for it but I\'m not familiar with the terminology yet). But I am having a lot of fun trying this out! With very minor cursing at at times. :mad: I want to...

    Wet Palette - thin paints drying quickly

    I started here with this (wet palette care thread) I\'ve found with my wet palette, even after soaking the paper in very hot/boiling water, when I use thinned down paints that the water will quickly be pulled through the paper leaving just almost dry pigment stuck to the paper. This makes...

Salvatore, I liked the first...

    Scherdy's Happy Place - WIP/paintlog

    A Fossil Record of Scherdy's Painting... So I have been painting a little bit on and off since middle school I suppose. Trying to pick it back up after several years off and would like any feedback or C&C to help me improve. I much more enjoy a well painted army than one specced to annihilate...

    Getting past fear of failure?

    I keep staring at this pile of metal of plastic I have and have had the hardest time getting started! Do you guys have any things you do to get motivated or inspired to actually put brush to model when you find yourself reading/researching about your projects more than actually working on them...

    brass etched details

    Anyone able to point me to a few good sites with the brass etched extras for modeling sci-fi and fantasy? I\'ve seen people use them for fern leaves, metal gratings, and other details they\'d rather not sculpt or draw freehand as little finishing touches. Thanks all!

    Painting clean wraithbone

    I\'m painting a ton of eldar in an ulthwe scheme and love the look of the clean bleached bone wraithbone with the darker browns in the crevasses just on the helmets and shruiken catapults. I\'m starting with a basecoat of beastial brown then adding bleached bone into the mix of beastial brown...

    Video suggestions to complement JBT

    I\'m looking at buying my own copy of one of the painting instructional DVDs. A fellow painter has let me borrow his JBT painting video fairly permanently now but I thought I\'d bring something to the table to share with him and get a different video. Are there any recommendations of vids that...

    Paint orientation and transportation.

    Any problems with storing or carrying paint pots and droppers that end up sideways or upside down? Assuming lids get closed all the way of course. I\'m just looking at ways to transport paints and supplies and wondeing if how I pack them in could impact their longevity or make them more prone...
