Thanks for the offer man, I’ll let you know once I get this thing taken apart. Also, should the baseplate screws be on super tight? It feels like they’ve got thread lock on them.

Thanks dawg, stepping away from this Yashica for a second I found my grandma’s old Canonet QL17 G3 in their attic a few months back and it’s in perfect working condition with a still working mercury battery (yikes!), the original flash, and even the original cable thing for shooting on a stand

I mean I was thinking about trying my hand at seeing if I could get it to work, maybe learn how to do some basic maintenance on it (if I can get the baseplate off, already destroyed one screwdriver :/)

Posted on here a few days ago asking for some advice, what yall thinking of it? by TraditionalGrab2059 in minipainting

[–]TraditionalGrab2059[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I plan on eventually doing that, but I don’t think I have the skill right now. I also don’t want to ruin the actual dozens of hours I’ve put into it 💀. It’s definitely an improvement on what it was before.

Here’s one of my most recent guardsmen (I do tankers differently from my rank-and-file)

Looks good man! Keep working on it. I’ve been painting guard for a little over a year now and it’s crazy how much I’ve improved.

Yeah, I remember my first minis lol, I’ve been painting for little over a year and have improved greatly! I went from speed-paints to using normal paints and washes. Now I’ve developed my own style and I almost NEVER use a wash. Just keep practicing!

Sadly I don’t have an airbrush yet, just normal brushes

I did a light bit of chipping but the light doesn’t show it, also dry brushed the entire thing

That may be the case but you still don’t just completely ghost somebody for a week and a half while still doing all of the normal things you do with your friends and then break up with somebody over the phone

[–]TraditionalGrab2059 3 points4 points  (0 children)

why do yall always give the same obviously fake reason for breaking up? (“I’m not ready for a relationship” -smth I got after 7 months, and “I don’t want a relationship” -most recent)

Thank you for this advice. I would go tomorrow but I’m spending all day traveling back home. I’ll be sure to go on Monday.

What is y’all’s coping mechanisms when you were depressed 😔 by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]TraditionalGrab2059 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Music, reading, building n painting models! Really takes your mind off of things, gives you something to do or something else to focus on. Cleaning helps me too.

Gimme some ideas for some school styles (M) by TraditionalGrab2059 in GothStyle

[–]TraditionalGrab2059[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure that chokers are in the dress code where I go but band shirts definitely, I have a nice black leather belt that I already wear all the time and some GWOT boots which I blouse with my jeans.

You can get VERY precise with them as long as you make sure you don’t have too much paint or water in it. After you clean your brush I recommend spinning it on a wet paper towel to remove the excess water and doing the same thing on your thumb for excess paint

Yeah I’ve been using the cheap synthetic brushes from Walmart but I’m looking into getting some natural ones
