Re: Paint lifting with masking tape

If I must use tape I stick it to my shirt and peel it off a few times before applying to the good surface. This cuts down on the tackiness.

Re: Super glue will NOT bond vinyl parts - ACK!

It happened to me once years ago. Nothing I did worked. After talking with the producer and trying their suggestions (also failing), they sent me a replacement kit.

Re: Decision time...

Just for the record, I didn't cancel and hoped for the best. Good decision! Great to see everyone and experience the 'fest. There were a lot of regulars and friends missing which left a definite void. Understandable. Looking forward to next year!

Decision time...

Wonderfest hotel reservations required a one night payment which is non-refundable if the reservation is cancelled after May 5th. That deadline is quickly approaching and a decision must be made about attending. We all hoped that, by now, things would have improved to the point that it would be safe...

Re: large-ish rectangular resin base warped - how to handle?

I've used Aves and filled in the high side then sanded the bottom level.

Die Hard ornament

I have seen several versions of this over the years. Finally got around to building my own. Illustration board, screen captures, Photoshop, and aluminum foil.

Re: Aiming an airbrush with accuracy

Those small targets still give me trouble. I usually test fire on my hand a couple times to gauge things then immediately move to the piece and hope for the best!

Re: Primer and primer colors.

I use rust color primer for a skin tone base. I feel gray gives the color a greenish cast when starting my buildup of colors. The rust shade can also pass for shadow color. Gray for everything else EXCEPT white when doing red and yellow.
