    Choosing my first figure to paint in oils

    Hi Chuck. I varnish over the acrylics first as oils will stain the acrylic and that may not be the effect I want. Some painters want that and some don't. I find if I make a mistake or don't like the oil paint job I'm doing, I can use a mild thinner to remove the oils and not worry about...

    Choosing my first figure to paint in oils

    I think the quality of the sculpt is half the battle. Get a really good sculpt and it'll make your life a lot easier. painting 3 dimensions on a completely round sphere is hard. Also, if you are working with resin or white metal, remember you can always keep stripping it if you don't like it and...

    Caesar Miniatures and CMK?

    Hi. I have a friend who is looking at maybe buying some 1/72 figures from Caesar Miniatures or CMK. Does anyone have any experience with them? Is the quality good? I know at that scale it's difficult for the figs not to be "soft" as far as the sculpt is, but are they worth the money? They are...

    Wanting to Buy Nutsplanet Shieldmaiden

    Hi. I'm thinking of buying the Nutsplanet Shieldmaiden bust. I find the online stores are wanting too much when I factor in the currency exchange and shipping costs. Anyone have one in their grey army they are willing to part with at a decent price? I'm in western Canada. Thanks! Gary D

    Permission to speak freely..Sir

    Strip all the paint off of the figs and give them away to young figure painters just starting out. They are expensive to buy and they'd appreciate them. The Art can be donated. Gary

    Naming convention for PF participants

    Hi. I was just curious as to what the meaning is and where the status comes from for the PF participants. Is this some kind of points system where you advance after so many likes etc? Maybe it doesn't mean anything? I see the following after everyones names: Member Well-Known Member Active...

    Figure Painting Techniques FAQ worth whole?

    Just don't throw anything away if you aren't happy with your paint job. Strip it and do it again. It's easy to get frustrated, but each time you re-paint it just gets better and better. I use the purple bottled engine de-greaser Super Clean you can buy at Walmart. it's biodegradable and works...
