That was funny!

Yeah. I have a 4' x 8' workbench. There is no reason I should only have a 6" x 8" area to work.

I actually got a decent amount of bench time today, but I didn't get much painting done. Instead I spent the time cleaning up. I figured before I make the big push to wrap up for WF I should clean up and organize so I can spend what bench time I do get actually being productive instead of trying to ...

Those spikes do look very nice.

Nice

I hear you.
Just finished my 3rd. I have another real close, and another that should finish no problem.
Two others that might get done, and one more that is probably a long shot.

So, I will have 5-8 realistically.
Still shooting for 10, but we will see.

Starting to get a bit nervous. Only 6 weekends left until WF. Got another one done! Still need to take final pics though. https://i.postimg.cc/JDf3V8hg/mineds21.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/Mv809zNf/mineds22.jpg Been doing a lot of work on this one. https://i.postimg.cc/75H3ymxx/pit14.jpg https://i.post...

That's cleverly done, and a great result. Even more so when you know it's your first time trying this!

Base is looking awesome overall too.

What he said. ^

Thanks Trevor and Vlad. The splash was fairly easy. Spread out some woodland scenics wave gel in a non stick pan in a circular design. Making it thicker towards the center and thinner towards the outer edges. Use a thin stir stick to make ripples throughout and rough up the outer edges. Wait a day ...

That was pretty cool.

I have to admit about halfway through I thought Lars was gassed and sucking air, but then things ramped up even more and he killed it.
Guess I am just used to watching drummers that are more relaxed and seem to be having more fun behind the kit.

Wow!
So much amazing detail. Lovely color choices.
Excellent execution.
Really love the application of the 'white goo'.

So, anyone get some good pics of the eclipse they'd like to share? https://i.postimg.cc/mcfhNDbH/eclipse05.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/YL9SqLxJ/eclipse13.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/XGxJbk9f/eclipse14.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/nMRzSTFZ/eclipse17.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/7C3hBk6Q/eclipse23.jpg https://i.pos...

It's amazing how much better you can see things with a fresh coat of primer.

Cool

Thank you Trevor! I think at this point with both the Minotaurs that I definitely need to follow my wife’s usual smart advice and stop F’n with them. If it were me, I would call the green one done. I would think about adding a bit of highlights to the brown one though. But then again, I am on this ...
