    I'd love to try an airbrush, but would never buy one without having a go with it first. I heard they are a pain to keep clean.

    No worries man! He is part of the stegadon crew also as I magnetized him to either be on the stegadon or in the base with the kadon spell so he is next on the line

    Very nice your work is getting more impressive.

    Love how you combine colours, you are very talented.

    Have you thought about doing comission work?

    Thanks guys I really apreciate the comments.

    Hahaha its all about patience it gets on my nerves sometimes and I have to stop @Pinktaco

    @Crowsfoot thabks man! I comntemplated the idea for a while. But i am a really really slow painter so I imagined that wouldnt work for most people so I whent against it. I mostly paint for fun and to finally see my compleate army painted :)

    @n810 yehaa I found those to be the best places for magnets. They hold the pieces well and the best part is that you dont notice them

    Great work Xlanax_lot! The way you make colours flow and blend is amazing. Your shading and highlighting is tremendous, it really gives the model pop. Those pieces look incredible.

    What releasing agent do you use when using your greenstuff mold to cast your models?

    @NIGHTBRINGER I ussually put a little bit of soap on the mold and thats it. It has worked great for me, but if you are habing trouble, make sure you do this two thibgs:

    1. Ensure that the green stuff is well attached to the base before u use the mold on it ( make sure there is no water or any liquid between the base and the green stuff)

    2. Put a couple of drops of soap in the mold and start by releasing all the corners first ( diping it ina little watter with ice also helps in removing the mold)

    Hope this helps! :)

    I use evoo on my molds.

    These are fantastic! Even by Lustria online's standard, you are one of the best. And I feel like the work at lustria is far better than average. I love that you really take your time with the bases. It adds a hell of a lot to your work and doesn't go unnoticed by anyone. And of course the level of detail puts these models over the top.

    What ever happened to that skink casting the beast spell? I'll be wanting to see that one finished!
