Well Darkvine Studios takes the one two punch here. A fantastic piece by Darin (Whizard) Hlavaz wins and his partner in crime, Kevin (Rodnik) takes second....

I've been painting a number of GW's eldar vehicles lately. To paint the clear plastic canopies, I mask of all the parts that should stay clear, prime and then...
... I don't know if its worth it. You can probably sand away the frost working down to a 2000 grit paper. Then treat it with an acrylic to restore the clarity....
... The bit only costs about a dollar. I doubt it's worth my time to sand them, but I'll try it if the next batch fails. I used plain old yellow masking tape....
... Probably caused by the fumes of the glue that you where using...before glueing the canopy...I would make sure that the glue that y ou are using has...
Hi- It was caused by the fumes. It should clear up with some Future Floor Wax. Simply use an old brush to apply it and it's water soluble. For canopies and...
Troy, That's the spirit of Russ haunting you for painting Eldar instead of Space Wolves! :) Al Gleason [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
I take it back. Mr. Gleason is correct. The fumes had nothing to do with it and the future floor wax won't work. It *was* Russ and you *should* be painting...
Are you using cyanocrylate glue to glue the bottom of the cockpit onto the upper hull or even using it to glue the top and bottom hull together? If this is the...
They only say that because your paint job outshines theirs! Had the joy of playing you in the Atlanta GT last year - you had a very fair and balanced army...
Hi friends of painted miniatures. I just updated my website and want to inform you about all the great new stuff you can find. First of all I uploaded pictures...
Something I forgot to add in my first email was the use of simple elmers glue for the cockpits. I dries clear, won't run and no fumes! ... From: "loyd_99"...
Actually it's my win loss ratio they complain about. Atlanta last year was probably my worst outing ever in terms of games won. I'm glad you liked the army,...
This may not be applicable to this group due to the scale but I am currently working on a 120mm Napoleonic Carabineer (Heavy Cavalry) that sports a brass...
hey folks - I have finally set myself up with a website www.lostinthewarp dot com My current project is a beastman army to go with the Morghur fig i had in the...
Hi foks, it has been a long time since I was active on this list... Is anyone of you going to visit the Spiel '05 games fair in Essen, Germany this year? I...
... Did you use cyanacrylate at all? The fumes from that will cause frosting if it's used near clear parts. A dip in Future floor wax is supposed to help...
Everyone seems to be ASSUMING the canopies got exposed to glue. They have not been near glue of any kind. They were masked and spray painted separately, and I...
Is it residue from the masking tape? If so - alcohol should clean off. In a message dated 10/5/2005 8:40:45 P.M. Central Daylight Time, tcliftonmd@......
I hear that! I couldn't win to save my butt there last year - although I couldn't lose either! 1 win - 4 draws. Oh well....helped out that sportsmanship...
Considering the size of the piece, have you tried an actual metal foil such as gold leaf? If you are careful it yields excellent results since, well, it IS...
... They'll definitely be ready for games day in Atlanta. I really expect them to use this year's Chicago games day/GT combo as the model for the future. So ...
