Basing With Sand and Static Grass

     So I was talking with Brent from Strictly Average last Friday. He was admiring my bases and was curious how mine looked so different than his, although we were using pretty much the same material. So, I figured I would do a walk through on how I do them, and maybe some slight changes you can make to them for different armies.

My Camera Set Up

     Well since SAJ seems to be a source for some good ideas, I am doing another post based on one of his questions. He was curious about my set up and how I configure things for photos of minis. After the jump some photos of my set up and an explanation of how and why it is set up that way.

The Problem with Voices in Your Head!

So here's the problem with voices in your head. When they take on form, you lose control of what they say!

Evidently Brent from Strictly Average is having a huge problem with that.

I guess he thought I was not gonna have anything to say once let out upon the world!

I wonder how long it would take to get more followers than him?

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

Well its my birthday today. Not only am I special because of that, I am special because I have a beautiful woman who loves me and for some reason...takes care of me.  Oh...keep it "G" fellas...not like I am gonna post any thing like that here.

Follow the jump to see what I got.

What's in the bottle?

     SAJ asked here my thoughts about different brands of paints. Let me start off by stating I am in no way any type of expert when it comes to paint and brands. I am simply responding to his question and hopefully you can take something useful away from it.

     My modeling tool box has 5 brands of paint in it. There is Games Workshop as well as GW Foundation line, Vallejo Game Color, Vallejo Model Color, and Privateer Press P3 paints. Since both GW paints and both Vallejo paints have some significant differences I count them as separate brands. I will also be talking about what I consider to be the 3 different types of paint in each line. That is Basic, Metallic, and Inks/Washes. None of the lines are equal in value across those types so I can address them separate.
