Hi Guys, Well, here is the latest in "progress" shots of the War Hammer figure I started awhile back. I think I should have been a little more thoughtful in my dry brushing the metal onto the armor. To me, it seems as though I've lost a great deal of contrast between the shined areas and the...

I think the period I would choose would be rather dull in comparison of most of the posts I've seen here. I would like to go back to the neolithic period to witness the establishment of "civilization" in the Steppes as well as the river valleys of Europe. Then I would like to be with Byrd in...

I Like! The skin tones are great and I'm really liking that shield!

Happy Belated Birthday All these birthday's November, hmmm. Can't blame it on a blizzard.

Bwahahaha :lol: Oh that was funny! Steve

Thank you Guy! :) And, thank you to all the other members who have helped me with my figure painting. :) Best Wishes Steve

Hey everyone! Yes the figure has been primed, I used Floquil figure primer. I am using oils rather than acrylics. Perhaps, if I'm to continues I shouild switch to acrylics. I'm wanting to achieve a finish like Gilbert's where there is a smooth yet noticable transition between the color shades...

Robin, For me, I would want historical accuracy, good sculpting with lots of details in the face and expression. I think as far a spose would go, I like those figures who seem to stand in a rather common pose, such as taking a drink from a dipper, lighting a cig, smoking a pipe just everyday...

This, is not turning out. I think I've over worked it, the paint isn't laying worth a hoot. It looks ok from a distance but, when you get closer...bleh. I know, larger scale, but I would like to finish this. So, if you have any advice short of throwing into the tub of 409 and do over, I'd...

Well I guess that I'm not that much of a neophyte, however, I am new to the larger than 1/35th or 48th figure world and am just seeking some information. I've already downloaded those videos from Armorauma whe he posted them. I just have some questions that I'd like answered and seeing the...

I've been a downloading fool this morning. I've really enjoyed the articles in the feature section I think they'll really be helpful in the days to come.! Have you guys considered creating an instructional video? For guys like me who live in the middle of no-where a video on painting techniques...

As one of those newbies, thank you for the information! Best wishes Steve

Robin, I thought I would add that I like your term "squaddies" We always called them "troopies" here. Later Steve

Jason, I really like it, especially the helmet and the equipment. I like the face as well! love the capture of the expression! Thanks for showing it! Best wishes Steve

Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I think I'll try the magic sculp route given its cure time. Thanks again! Steve

Hi folks! I was wondering what types of putty do you guys use when altering a figure or other figure related work? Which is the most common and the most forgiving for use by someone like me whose only experience with a putty is Squadron green and white putty and Milliput. ( I have to order...

Thanks Guy! I'll try the Verlinden route and if it's a no-go I'll try the bandage suggestion! Steve

Good Morning Guys! I am taking the advice given me in another section of trying a larger figure, so I dug out my Verlinden 120 mm ( I think I said it was larger in the other discussion) Soviet Officer Berlin 1945. However, I discovered that two of the fingers were broken off (and of course...
