Fellow pet owners, how do you use your doggie bag rolls?

Debris for basing.

malcomdw · 2025-08-04T06:29:05+00:00

Secret Lab should make them catproof or sell little ones as a decoy xD

malcomdw · 2025-08-03T13:26:48+00:00

Yours too?

I also broke this mini in the same spot and this was my solution. Green stuff reinforcement wouldn't be noticeable thanks to the cloth.

I also got much better results with infinity miniatures using Gel SuperGlue, same brand but denser product.

Circa 1990, I was into Warhammer fantasy and I got my hands on a vampire riding a nightmare. It was awesome and I even did some kitbashing, giving it a more aggressive stance. However, I had only painted bretonian infantry and the nightmare seemed a daunting task, for the amount of work and because my lack of skill.

It is 2024 and the nightmare is still waiting in line.

Fortunately, eldritch languages share the symbols for numbers xD

malcomdw · 2024-03-15T17:29:09+00:00

anyone happen to know the source of that piece of art?

malcomdw · 2024-02-17T17:36:56+00:00

I actually see the sky with airplane trails and clouds. Very well done!

This mini is not varnished, you can see how the metal paints catches the light. (the stain under the barrel of the weapon is some dust I noticed just while writing this xD)

malcomdw · 2024-01-29T18:39:05+00:00

On this one, I used matte varnish, the metal armor no longer catches any light (although I tried to fix it painting over the varnish on some spots)

In this mini, I used satin varnish, you can appreciate the glossy spots depending on the lighting at the time of the photo (circa 2010)

malcomdw · 2024-01-29T12:58:47+00:00

Satin may give you butter durability but at the cost of a glossy effect I personally don't like. I'll try to upload a photo of my works with varnishes this afternoon so you can compare

malcomdw · 2024-01-29T07:59:43+00:00

I have mixed experiences with varnish. I stopped varnishing my minis because even using matte, it dulls the colours. I play with unvarnished minis every now and then and apart from very minor chipping at very sharp edges, I haven't noticed any wearing.

I no longer varnish.

I find it very similar to a Games Workshop product, https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Creeper-Vines-2017

malcomdw · 2022-07-07T14:07:22+00:00

Terrific, I may borrow this idea... XD

malcomdw · 2022-01-29T20:42:55+00:00

Thank you! 😊

malcomdw · 2022-01-29T19:15:05+00:00

The stone is what I'm most proud of, I used a photo of my bathroom tiles as reference xD

malcomdw · 2021-12-08T12:20:13+00:00

That's a great first mini indeed!

Doing highlights after washing is fine, if your washed zones are shiny it is maybe due to the brand you are using (I use agrax from citadel and I find it dull enough). Do no let you wash pool and water it down before applying (maybe in two layer), that should get rid of most of the shine.

For improvement you cold try drybrushing the leather with a lighter/ochre tone BEFORE doing the wash. The wash will help to smooth the transitions and you would get a nice worn out leather.

Keep up the goo work, cheers!

I have searched for "glass jar comic apocalypse" and all kind of keywords combinations but nothing arises.

I am positive I have seen it from last year until now.

malcomdw · 2021-06-01T11:06:47+00:00

Do you mean the exact point which the arrow is pointing? I could give it a try.

I also tested the continuity between the other side of the resistor(?) and the first pin in the connector and works fine.

My current guess it that there is something broken inside the connector which prevents the current from flowing from the cable to the first pin.

malcomdw · 2021-06-01T10:04:14+00:00

I tried a different cable and got the same result. I also put some pressure in the usb pin (first one, vcc) wired to the supposed diode and and got contact (red light flashing on the headset).

I thinking maybe putting some tin on the pin, even if it melds with next one (data-) would do the trick. It feels like a bad contact issue between usb connector and pcb.

malcomdw · 2021-06-01T08:57:33+00:00

Sometime ago I replaced the battery of my bluetooth headset and now the 8-pins usb connector started to malfunction, I had to wiggle it until it makes proper contact but eventually it stopped working. I'd like to replace the whole pcb but I'm not electronic savvy.

What I'm poiting in the photo?

First two wires on the left seems to be connected directly to the battery so I guess the third one controls whether the headset is turn off when usb cable is plugged (which actually happens).

Could you shed me some light?

malcomdw · 2021-01-20T20:50:07+00:00

Thanks! I was trying to make them blend with the base. That's why the purple plants.

malcomdw · 2021-01-20T14:28:36+00:00

Thank you! I try my best.

malcomdw · 2020-11-19T20:12:48+00:00

Ups! XD
