    Need help

    The painter is Riccardo Ruberti. Perhaps you can track him via Facebook etc. and ask him directly? I'd like to know as well, but I think it's 54mm which is too small for my eyes now days. Gary

    Scale Model Handbook, Figure Modelling 23 IS OUT!

    I hope you have the best of luck with the sales of your book. Looks like 2 articles on scratch building and 5 about acrylics/enamels. As far as us artist oils painters are concerned, it looks like there is nothing here for us at all.

    How to create dust

    Maybe build a shadow box. You might achieve the dust effect by misting a light dust glaze on a mirror and reflecting the figs back to the viewer. Hope that makes sense.. Here's a link to BoxDioramas.com http://www.boxdioramas.com/eckmann Gary

    Figure Modelling. By Mr Black, publications.

    I'm with Marc. I bought a few copies and there is barely anything in it about oils. That's why I stopped as I'm an oil painter too. Tons of articles about acrylic painting on the internet anyway. I wish someone would publish more books on oil painting. Gary

    Stripping

    By the way, SuperClean is also bio-degradable, phosphate free, and non-abrasive! I find I need to soak my figs overnight or so. A day or two at best. Gary

    Airbrushes

    My friends and I are hooked on the Harder & Steenbeck Infinity 2 in 1 double action airbrush. (approx. $300) It comes with a .15 needle and nozzle for fine detail work and a .4 needle and nozzle for general work. Very easy to control, clean and assemble. We use mainly Tamiya acrylics which are...

    Coming Soon...

    Whatever it is, you can probably already buy it from a re-caster on E-Bay. But my guess is it's lady Godiva on horseback wearing a furry hat! :)

    recaster conterfeit

    I don't know if this will make anyone feel better, but I kind of suspect the numbers that show as sold are false anyway. There artificially inflated to show what they are selling is very popular and make you feel that you better buy one yourself as it's a great deal. Gary D

    a Seashore groundwork SBS

    Beautiful Franck! (y) Thanks for this. Did you have to do anything with regards to air bubbles forming when you mixed and poured the resin? I once saw a different SBS once that suggested just before pouring the resin, the guy dabbed the liquid resin onto the painted base to prevent air pockets...

    Award winning Figure painting commissions

    I get the impression that his friend is a collector who only wants to purchase from artists who are willing to sell figures that have won awards. This ensures the quality of the work upfront. No where does Chris mention that his friend wants to enter them into contests. As mentioned above, lots...
