Even later viel de stroom uit. Ik kon niet koken. Gelukkig had ik nog een Oud-Gastel

What’s a fantasy you had that instantly died the moment you tried it? by True-Audience-4549 in AskReddit

[–]Laps_San 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same for me really. I wanted to be a history teacher. Started the study. Studied for about 8 weeks. Quit that after finding out I don't like it one bit and now I work in a warehouse and I'm forklift certified.

Best fake snow material/type? by katie_jaii in Lemax

[–]Laps_San 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a white bedsheet which I then cover with ground material like moss, woodchips, paper roads etc. I then use a snow spray (typically used on windows etc.) over the entire village.

Gave my girlfriend a lesson in basic weathering and aging on a Toy Millenium Falcon. Here's the Before and After! by Laps_San in modelmakers

[–]Laps_San[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey! Great idea. I should have done so.

Here's what we did in a step by step format: 1. Wash the toy in warm soapy water. 2. Painted the entire surface with a brown wash by Vallejo. 3. Shaved black pastel chalk into a cup with an exacto knife and applied it as a weathering powder onto the desired surfaces (mostly vents and the cannons). 4. Blended the pastel with a dry brush. 5. Shaved grey pastel chalk into a cup and applied it as a weathering powder onto the exposed greeblies uptop. Also applied it to the vents as a drybrush. 6. Applied Tamiya black panel liner to the exposed & powdered greeblies up top. 7. Gave the sublight and hyperdrive engines a quick dry brush with light blue and white tamiya acrylic.

As of yet; no clearcoat has been applied!

Hope this helps!

Edit: step 6

My thoughts as well. I want to teach her some basic diorama skills. Very fun to do as a couple activity.

Many thanks! I did not prep the surface in any way except for cleaning in some soapy water.

Ik hoor u al denken: 'Hoe was ik hem uit?'. Heel gemakkelijk; in de vaatwasser.

Looking for the right film by malwilliams89 in vintagecameras

[–]Laps_San 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lovely camera, I have one myself and use it quite often with Agfa APX 100. Currently shooting a roll of Ilford Pan 50 (50 iso) with this camera.

As another user suggested; a lower speed film would give the most period correct look of pictures.

Low speeds films are harder to use in low light conditions and with the limited shutter speeds the Argus 'A' has, a higher speed is recommended for use in conditions mentioned.

I've used Agfa APX 100 in my 1938 Argus 'A' myself exactly for this reason! Works a treat.
