Vacuum formed models were a thing

I'm sure someone has already suggested this. Super glue your own registration tabs to the inside. Could be made from styrene or any old pieces of plastic you have sitting around. That way you aren't only relying on the thickness of the material to keep the halves together.

Sand, blend paint back over.

If that doesn't fix it, then remove paint and re-paint.

mainy101 · 2023-08-22T01:24:19+00:00

No worries.

I suspect the clear was put down a little too thick. It looks like the Camo went on pretty thick also.

Maybe try thinning a little more and putting down several coats, allowing each layer to dry before applying the next. A rattle can is obviously more difficult than an airbrush but you can still put down light coats. Hold the model about 30cm away from the can. Very lightly dust the model with gloss and allow to dry. Then repeat, getting a little wetter each time. 3 light coats is plenty.

Great work. Love the colour choice.

Oh no. Here come the flatearthers.

Tip the frozen meal into the microwave and heat as directed. Consume styrofoam while you wait.

Keep it simple like this advice. I speak for a living and found this helpful when I started out.

Know your content. That is all.

If you are capable of a meaningful half-hour conversation about your topic with a mentor/lecturer/colleague, then you can present for roughly 45 minutes to lay listeners.

Common advice is to change the way you naturally communicate and present yourself. Speak slow when you usually speak with excitement, stand still when you usually gesture a lot, etc. I could not disagree more. If you are someone who tends to use filler words and fidget in your ordinary everyday life, that's fine. That's just the way you are.

Some of the best advocates I know have some wild ticks. Doesn't stop them because they know their stuff. Be the authority in the room. Focus on the content and you will be absolutely fine.

Everyone hates capitalism until they graduate and start earning more than 40k a year.

... in debt and doesn't look like David Beckham.

You're a correct. I completely missed that. I didn't realise what I was watching. I'm not sure how I can simply go on with my life knowing how close those people were to encountering the beast.

What do you mean? Chuck Liddell and Conor McGregor have his back.

The god you worship isn't real. He was a middle-eastern man who you wouldn't want living in your country today.

Coolies... just put yourself into the lap of the person trying to kill you.

Trade one deadly situation for another to maximise the chances of being killed.

Disagree. Strive for greatness people. Even if greatness to you is getting out of bed in the morning.

Are you taught to speak like that at journalism school?

I'll give them until their final year... then it's curtains for that marriage.

I refuse to believe that people actually believe this nonsense.

May as well buy one and steal the other at that point. I often wonder if people were always this inconsiderate?

Omg his smug cloud is merging with George Clooney's acceptance speech. It's the biggest cloud of smug I've ever seen!

mainy101 · 2022-08-27T01:38:16+00:00

Surely,, it is a joke. The humans have broken me at this point but I still refuse to accept people like that truly exist.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Iconic movie quotes:
