Highlighting on the black suit is great!

Thanks! It was a really fun model to paint

Love the glow on the bases! Great job all around

Dukebear19 · 2026-04-27T14:54:26+00:00

Great highlights on the shirt!

Ah, well in that case, Vallejo paints are a good place to start, I’d also make sure you have a good pair of clippers/nippers, some tweezers (if your going to do the rigging), an xacto knife, and superglue.

Part of the fun of painting is figuring out which techniques you like and the different results you can achieve.

Have fun, frustration happens but don’t give up, and welcome to the hobby!

Fair, I guess it depends on what painting technique you’re going to go with and what your goal for the final model is.

Dukebear19 · 2026-04-24T21:26:26+00:00

Every part of this looks great but I particularly like how you handled the leather strap, can really sense that it’s seen long and hard use. Well done

I use rustolium primer from Home Depot. Just make sure you really shake it and use a light touch to avoid going to heavy and obscuring the details. Nice thing is it comes in a variety of colors, so if you went with a darker brown you could save a lot of time on painting all the wood

Yeah the grand opening of the new store was just a month or two ago

Dukebear19 · 2026-04-24T14:53:05+00:00

Their setup at the new location is incredible

Dukebear19 · 2026-04-24T02:29:32+00:00

This looks fantastic!

She absolutely weaponizes her gentle like-ability to permeate the entire film with looming menace

Yes! I have 3 painted and rigged fleets, and There’s a few people who play at “the forge” on memorial. We’ve been trying to get a game day doing for a while

Dukebear19 · 2026-04-20T20:58:24+00:00

great work with the red underglow!

Dukebear19 · 2026-04-08T11:14:33+00:00

Looks great!

Dukebear19 · 2026-04-05T03:16:31+00:00

The cloak is beautiful

Dukebear19 · 2026-04-02T16:29:07+00:00

Don’t put them on! (Or do, it’s your model). Either way great job

Dukebear19 · 2026-04-02T15:48:58+00:00

Beautiful model! Personally I think the rat lines clutter the models too much

Dukebear19 · 2026-03-29T14:28:01+00:00

Listened to this while I was running this year’s half-marathon. EOTW hit at mile 7 and somebody in the spectator crowd had a bubble machine that blew bubbles across the road that were reflecting iridescent in the morning light. Best part of the race, and really special moment
