I got lower than I thought I would. I thinned the paint and worked really hard on this one, so what suggestions would you have? Did the base bring down the rating (this was my first attempt at water effects)? Is the photo quality bringing down the rating in your opinions?

Please give me some advice on how to make my elves better. http://www.coolminiornot.com/220013 It\'s been a long time since I did flesh, any articles or tutorials on flesh or jewels would also be appreciated. :yes:

<p>My 13 year old tried her hand at painting, but decided it was too hard. I have to admit she doesn't have as much time as the rest of the family. Her hockey takes up alot of time. She did surprise me by deciding to try her hand at pottery, but she hasn't shown me any of her work yet though...

<p>Well, I'm learning alot. We'll see how&nbsp;my new information&nbsp;turns out. My 7 year old&nbsp;daughter decided not to have me put her things on until she does an actual mini, so she's starting on one tomorrow. I may just put her progress on here. I have to say there were a few minis put...

I have put my tomb king back out for sale at a reduced price. It is showing as closed but the auction is still active. Tomb king

My auction on this site is listed as over as of 01-01-70. Am I the only one seeing this right now? I had a similar problem with my last auction. Is it something I could be doing to cause this error?

<p>I have my tomb king done - I love the way he turned out. The only problem I have is that I can't get the guy to stand up! I've used super glue and it isn't doing a thing. </p><p>&nbsp;</p>

I can\'t get my mini to stick to the base! :flame: Any hints and tips??

<p>My youngest daughter has decided she likes to paint too. Considering her age (7) she down't do too badly either. I will be posting a picture of her most recent creation when I get home from work. She wanted me to post it for voting, I told her when she was doing smaller more detailed ones...

<p>I was working on my elves and was reminded that it is not particularly easy to get skin right. I'm going to have to strip them and retry soon. I ended up getting a blood wolf from Legends, just to make myself feel better. My husband and I both ended up getting sick, him more than myself. I...

I know why my Chameleons got a fairly low score, but I thought that my Chaos Demon would get a little higher than it got. Can anyone tell me why I am getting lower scores? Advice and specifics are appreciated. I\'m so very willing to learn how to make my mini\'s better. Here he is. Chaos Champion

I finished the chaos demon. What fun!&nbsp;I hope that my skill has increased enough that this gets a slightly better reception. I worked hard at getting the blending and the shading right, and went to you tube to take some lessons. I love the internet! I think I am going to work on making more...

It was payday today! That means I got a few new colors of paints, and some washes. I also got the dullcote stuff, and yes, even ground cover. I also got some new minis to paint. Hopefully I can increase my scores with the proper tools and with the new information I got from the Chameleons and...

The paints that I am using now are sooo much thicker than the paints I used to use. What do you use to thin them most effectively without losing their color? And what do overglaze/sealer (type or what should I look for?) is effective without making the piece overly shiny?

<p>This isn't as easy as I remember it. I put my first minis in about 17 years on the site today, and they turned out okay. Not nearly as detailed as I remember. I underestimated the necessity of a primer and didn't get it thick enough. The acrylic paint is a completely different consistancy for...
