| Well It's been a while, commission painting has kept me very busy and my own projects have taken a back seat for a little while. I have however found time to get a couple more units painted for Dom's website and my army. The pics on the site where taken prior to the addition of flock. This brings me... |

| I have used oil washes on other minis, never on the OTC. As you say the clean-up is a little messy/smelly. I recently discovered Les Bursley's Watercolour technique, which is basically the same, but you clean-up using water. You can see it towards the end of this YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/watch... |

| What's your rig set up btw and what pressure / needle are you using? I always try and geek out on the deeper tech on my airbrushing :) H&S Evolution CR Plus mostly using the 0.2 needle (0.15 for detail work). The compressor isn't flash (it has an extra tank) and I run it at about 20psi. My chea... |

| My main recommendation is that when you bring a model towards the camera for a close up, put your hand (or something else somewhat flatish) behind it as it'll allow the autofocus to figure things out. Seen the guy from Terran Scapes do that to great effect which I consider one of the gold standards... |

| If I use sound I definately need to create some longer tracks. The one I've used is about three mins long and I'm constantly cutting/pasting. I've also discovered that my camera has pretty good sound pick-up, so I can talk while painting (so long as I don't mess-up). Downside, if there can be a lot ... |

| Very nice! Though I think that gun looks like it's stating over the rear seat backs. Will you move it forward, in line with the next row of seats so the gunner could theoretically stand up? If I'm being too picky please tell me, I do like perfection in your work. |

| I have a distant memory of them being mentioned in the story that accompanied the Deathwing supliment. The Dark Angel Terminators entered a city that had been infected by Geensteelers an their leadership rode around in Limos. I May have this wrong, either way it was a great story. |

| Hi Guys, I've recently completed my latest set of minis for Don's site, OTC Akuma grav tank. I also created a step-by-step how to paint guide for my YouTube channel, like the one I did of the Neo Ashigaru. This includes a vid on how to make flight stands. Part 1 http://youtu.be/pPCTOk8oLvE Part 2 ht... |
