Nicolae, welcome to the WIP! IMHO the vignette is not nice enough yet, the color is still missing.  And the sexy ladies of course  |

Frank, the crackles are pretty simple to do. You can "steer" the crackles by using more or less water. The more fluid the mixture is, the more crackles you will get. If its thicker, there are almost no crackles. But then its harder to get the mixture into difficult surfaces (for example areas under the rocks etc. ). A coffee stirrer will work best. I get them for free at McDonalds or StarBucks. |

Nice work on the ground work elements Lucas. Definitely has that desolate/scrubby feel to it.

Yeah, the good ole coffee stirrer... They are also used for planking a woodway or so in scratched rooms and tons more of possibilities. Maybe I should have my coffee at Hamburger Restaurants. So around 30 a day...

Andy - "Grass is browner" would sound silly, does it?!  Frank - 30 cups of coffee? If your doctor finds it okay.... why not?! Leon - Skulls : Women... 28:1. Not what I would call "life". |

If I stop drinking Cola Zero it could fit! Or any other ideas how to get the stirrers?

You could use Schaschlikspiesse instead from your local supermarket. Sorry, dont know the English word. Meanwhile on the bench, the female magic came alive. www.youtube.com/watch?v=azn6kejKVWk  |

She´s a Beauty! I guess other men or woman, who fell victim to her, does see this a bit different (regarding to her character I suppose) but from our point of view, she is fab!!
Frank
Yeah, Schaschlikspieße may go but I cannot make wood planking from them!

LOL. I can borrow you some. Aaaaah, I love to play with colors. In addition to the golden red Schmincke has some silverish effect color, looks like a rainbow or something. If you paint it over the red, two things will happen: [1] from a far view youll highlight the red. So far so good... [2] Come closer, turn the weapon a bit and.... YEAH!!! The red and silver react together and youll get something between. Not enough... [3] I painted some Humbrol clear blue over it and Im pretty sure that you learnt in school what happens if you mix red and gold/yellow together with blue. Correct! Now its Green and violet. And thats exactly what I wanted to achieve.  Level 1 without blue...  and with blue...  same stage, different point of view:  |

I hear you - in way...on the otherhand...violence on tv and the net (or the fact that we often portray machines which are designed to kill people) or accepted in general...but something which is natural...nudity is ok...something which goes further than that of course not (for the kids I mean  ) anywhoo, who am I ey ...Keep doing your great job mate Cheers |

Its art. Nothing more and less. Not pornograhy or something. And youre right - calling poor plastic figures "pornographic" is totally foolish. BTW, I gave everyone the chance to stop reading in the prologue. I have fun. You have fun. Its a win-win situation, ja? |

Things are looking really great Lucas!! The Main Bad Girl is looking sweet!! As for the "Schaschlikspiesse" ...think the word might be "skewers"
As for the censoring...you and I had this discussion and we are good with you showing the pics of you work without the stars my friend! I do understand the starch view on this in Germany as well as some other locations. Feel free to post pictures of you build as you like here in the interest of the sharing of art my friend!!

Ooooops. Sorry, guess Im a bit late. Skewer, hm hm. Cant never learn enough. A big "hooray 4 boobies!" from freezing cold Leipzig. Whats to say about the danger girl on her dragon? See yourselves:   And the saddle got a bit of fur. Otherwise Neferata would get a freezing royal butt.  Another thing. If you like Vampires and Rockabilly - heres a band called "The Coffin Shakers", theyre from Hungary and sing about nothing else than Vampires, Graves, Coffins curses and all that funny stuff you can expect on a graveyard. www.youtube.com/results?search_query=the+coffin+shakersI highly recommend the titles "Phantom of the Night", "We are the Undead!" and "Necromancy", the official Coffinshakers Theme. |

I love crafting. No pictures done so far, but she got three layers of violet on her coat, and the washings (dark red) is on the way). Lets see if I can treat her right, theres still lots to do. |
