![]() Member Since: May 10, 2013 ![]() RK: 1 MP: 0 ![]() ![]() | Monday February 10, 2014 12:27 AM Manage to get some hobby time in today. Have everything painted, except the wings and arm wrappings. Not too happy with the horns, will have to revisit them, not sure if need to do some more to the toga, maybe some gold trim or something. I also am not sure what to do with the arm wrappings, either paint them as leather, but i am thinking more like a scroll wrapped around it. Anyway, here's George as he is right now.![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Things keep going like they are, I might have to start thinking of a bonus mini. ![]() Sarge "If you ain't CAV, you ain't!!" |

I've been using Vallejo thinner for a while but it still dries too fast for me especially with the heater on ...this worked great...I used an old bottle of Seabreeze as my main container and used an old bottle of Vallejo thinner as my application device....keeps my paint from drying out and getting GWish... Plus i use a Masters Sta-Wet (Wet Pallet) so I can keep using the same paint the next day(s) my skills don't match my supplies...but at least my supplies don't limit me...i think that this concoction cost me about $20 ...$8 for each of flow aid & slow dry and about $2 for the water...but my wife uses that for the iron...we have hard water here in Sugar Land...peace |

![]() Member Since: May 10, 2013 ![]() RK: 1 MP: 0 ![]() ![]() | Wednesday February 12, 2014 1:26 AM Thanks everyone for the nice commens.I think I will be doing the wings in a darker body color for the outside, and a lighter body color for the inside. If I can't get it where I like, i can always go with black. ![]() Sarge "If you ain't CAV, you ain't!!" |
