I often find myself growing impatient as I approach the end of a project. Depending on how much I care, because not every project is important to me, I typically just stop, walk away, and pick it up a few hours later or the next day.

I have a hard time with contrast. At first it'll look fine to my eye, but then after I've finished I realize everything looks like the same color. Your mini looks pretty good. I like the dramatic rock he's standing on.

And here’s Grimtalon. For $32, this is a pretty good model, but there are some problems. I thought I'd be clever and paint this in sub assemblies, but I had a hard time fitting the wings into the body. I tried to do some repairs after attaching the wings, but you can see it from the top if...

Every time I see this thread it reminds me of my favorite memetic legend. A man traveling to a game convention for the first time came upon a gamer who had two Gygaxes, both were the same size, and they fought one another continuously. The man asked the gamer which Gygax usually wins. The...

Sometimes you’ve got to laugh. I’ve put in a lot of effort painting the underside of the wings and I only just noticed most people won’t be able to see it when the mini is on the table.

The barbarian reminds me of Bettie Page on steroids.

I’m closed to finishing the underside of one wing. I’ve been doing a lot of corrections on this thing.

Elmer's glue. I started with a base of rust color. One dry, I used a sponge to dab on some Elmer's glue and let that dry overnight. I don't know if you need to wait overnight, but I did. Then I applied the blue, the green, and I painted the flowers and let that dry overnight. I needed to...
