check out some pics I put up in the painting thread about paintint tutorials

very well put.

nice!! Thanks, was hoping someone had used it, but I'm thinking on going with auto paint.... hear it looks awesome!

k, got some build pics up, just gotta figure out how to show in post.....If anyone can give me a fast how to, I'd be grateful. this was after I clipped the tracks off, and ground the rest down with a palm sander. front view taken apart, and inside primed on spots that would be visible from the outside. Putty I use for filling in the gaps and screw holes filling holes now for these holes, I made a stamp of the crosshatching using liquid latex, I then stamped the putty to make it look like the cross hatching assembly with the resin parts more assembly here it is primed. Like the sabre? it's my custom job.... the primer really lets you see the cracks, and seams better, I used the putty thinned down with thinner, and painted it on with a brush. then sanding, then more paint. I then drybrushed the outside with metalic model paint (see my painting thread soon) final pics minus t-tracks and scope work. It's not 100% done, as I need to finish the scope rings, add the t-tracks, and hit it with a few coats of satin finish clear coat!

lol, no thanks, I have 4 5000 pt armies.

Yea, DOW and DOW II are the nuts...

Quick question... Anyone here play Warhammer 40k? just curious. I figured you guys across the pond might.

how do I post pictures to a post? I tried to import from photobucket, but had difficulties, can anyone assist with a quick tutorial? I was able to get very small pics to upload, but not normal pics from my camera.

question is, how's the durrability. does it chip too much? or crack?

cool thanks, I was thinking about doing auto paint with a few coat of clear gloss over it with my airbrush... but the Krylon fusion, or the rustolium palstics paints bond to plastic alot better, so I'm trying to decide if I want to get a nicer paint job that I'll get from airbrushing, or do I go with a lesser quality, but longer lasting paint job with the canned stuff.

Anyone ever try Automotive paint / airbrush? just wondering if it's been done.

I think Paul's started putting medals on people, I'm seeing them in their info panel on the left.

There's a new product, it's called Rustolium Plastic...it's like the Krylon fusion. What I have is the professional high gloss enamel, but for paint I didn't want to do Krylon, then Rustoleum gloss over it. So I was just wanting to see if anyone has used it. here's the site for it : -----

I would too, he's been a source of inspiration, and knoweldge. I would give you specifics, but there's too many to mention, just little comments, positive criticism, and a general love of all things TK.

Smitty seems to be MIA for a bit now, not responding to my emails, haven't seen him on the board in like a week. anyone know if he's OK?

After seeing their "screen accurate" recasted FX, I'm a little leery of those guys.

NM, I spoke with my Garrison, got it answered.....

I know what the rules are, but I have a 17 year old that's doing a Mara Jade outfit to standards. Does the Legion have a 'parental waiver' for the age limit? just wondering, since she wants to go do events with me until she leaves next year for college. Thanks.

should also stand for 'awesome trooper armor' from the pics I've seen, and all the good things I've herd from people.

I'm going nuts..... I can't wait....can't wait!!!!! I feel like a little kid, I'm going to break the f5 key on my keyboard checking my email. lol

I'm starting to get very jealous of all these ATA build threads.....

That looks awesome, I have my armor on order, whole set. really looking forward it the build!!

Anyone use the new Rustolium plastic paint yet? It's like the Krylon Fusion, but they have a high gloss clear coat specifically formulated to go with it, and I'm interested to see if anyone's used it yet.

Thank you Paul, I appreciate the clarification, I'm planning on getting a hyperfirm someday, but for now this is all I can afford. can wait to show ya'll it's looking good! doesn't even look like a hasbro anymore!

So, can I get some feedback from the powers that be? I should have my tracks in either today, or tomorrow, and I'd like to know if I need to drill out more holes, and get to work back-filling the holes with a plate behind them, or if I'm ok with what I have. I'm willing to do the work, but it's going to really be a pain, and I would like to know if what I've got is acceptable, or if I need to re-work everything. Thanks guys.
