Just a few heads up if you like.

Try look for a games workshop, they have a whole range of waterbased colors. They very easy to work with and if you water them down correctly you can actually paint without getting the stripes. Or invest in a paintgun. the one from GW even has a special holder for their paints so you can see how much paint and water to fill in. And dont worry paintguns arent really that hard to use, and with a little practice you can get great camo effects etc

Also from GW is a new filler product which is semi liquid. With a little practice it works great for filling holes etc


You got a link for this as I couldn't find it online.

I've used it. It's less intoxicating that the highly flammable green stuff you usually find in a tube, and a bit easier to work with. However, I figure it's about four times the cost (at least) on a per-volume basis.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Thanks for the link and it is expensive, although I would expect nothing less from GW.

I think that came out really great!!!
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Thanks GDS.

I've learned to put the weathering wash on AFTER I put some Klear on - to make it easier to come off. I think in some parts it looks good but there are patches where it looks like weathering wash that wouldn't come off properly.

Also AFTER I put the Klear on, it seems to have "run" with the wash slightly (behind the cockpit on the right hand side)

But overall I'm happy with it.
