LonelyPath Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Dragons and flames are easy, it's flesh that's hard! So no suggestions on how to strip paint from just a small part of a model and leaving the rest of it uneffected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Err no, not all. Meaning lots, it's already on it's fifth or sixth, possible seven (tenth in some places) coat of paint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LonelyPath Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Sounds like I'll have to go at it very carefully with a fine blade to remove that paint then. Hopefully I won't damage any of the models features, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 *mumbles* if you were made of clockwork I'm sure we wouldn't have this discussion *patches up sofa - literally and cast sidelong glaces to unruly ferret boy* might trade you in for a couple of Brass Arachnids. At least THEY behave themselved...just you wait till @Regnak comes home and pray I can fix this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LonelyPath Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) Not at all, most of the paints have watered down at lot to get them to blend The problem is that the paint wet lumpy as it was drying so it looks awful and there's no way to conceal it, hence having to strip the skin areas My own fault for using a old paint, but it looked fine as it went on, just went nasty afterward.

LonelyPath Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 It's not?! Dammit! I was gonna name it Puff if it was Need to think of a different name for it now since it's not magical... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sliver Chocobo Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Nope, it's her weapon (salamander) it ignores armour and gives out burn counters, but it's not magical, how odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Why would it be magical? It's a fireball... In the meantime, I think I've figured out how to make a wirewolf. Going to give it a shot tonight. Take a chaos marine, cut the elbows, knees, and possibly shoulders and thighs, to separate them. Pin them together using something thin (maybe a paper clip) and then arrange wire over the pins to make it look like the wire is holding it together. Scrape off the part for the backpack, don't add pads...should (in theory) work well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LonelyPath Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Magical or not, it's still the worst case of dragon breath I've ever seen Someone offer Sonnia a mint, please! I do think it should be magical though, since it's made from magic (though I suppose ignoring armour, etc does make up for it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOneWhoFell Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 *walks in looking grouchy, turns around, firing several shots out the door at someone* F---ing LGS owner... It's really hard to build a community when we're treated like red headed stepchildren... Almost had a hissy at him.... *shakes head, fires another shot at a creature in the doorway* I could just SCREAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LonelyPath Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Fell, someone treated you like a... a Dark Angels Space Marine! Poor you ~offers you a pack of cookies~ ~Turns attention to gothic showgirls and teaches them the "grab the bat" dance whilst Voltaire plays in the background~ They're slowly getting the hang of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 I'm sorry Fell...been there before, it sucks. :/ I know for me, it took a couple months to get my LGS owner to start cooperating at all, and even then, it hasn't been an easy trip in that regard.

TheOneWhoFell Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 the worst part for me is that he keeps telling me that he WANTS me to build up the community... I wish there were somewhere else for us to play and hang out.... I wouldn't take the business away... but I want to make a place where we aren't shouting at each other over 15-30 magic players... and we aren't worrying about not being able to get even just a little space.... and I want to stop being treated like what I have to say isn't important....
