Building advice

[jtull01]

To which part of the forum can I post questions about how members build their models. IE, which paints, primers, glues, they use. What weathering techniques they employ. Is there a place to discuss Sci-Fi and Monster figures on this Board?
Thanks, Jeff

Hi Jeff! Welcome to Resin Illuminati!!!



We've got what you're asking for... In the Tutorials section (http://www.resinilluminati.com/forumdisplay.php?f=104), there are three subsections, each of which can help. There's a Video Tutorial area, a Written Tutorial area, and a Member Services/Techniques area.

We have a Works-In-Progress (WIP) section and a Completed Models section, and in each there are Figures, Anime, and Science Fiction subsections. It depends on your particular models, but Monster models would most likely fit in the Figures area.

Have fun and dig in!!!

Rosie O'Donnel can be found in the combined, 'Monster/Figure' category.


BTW :
Welcome Jeff- you can also ask questions directly during an active WIP thread of the builder and hope for an answer. Most everyone is only too glad to share what they've done/used- short of their 'trade secrets' or something soooo lengthy that a basic tutorial would be a better place to start.

Just don't ask me- I don't know what I'm doing and if I ever did- I have forgotten by now.

But welcome!

One of your under-the-table builds I suppose?

Don't listen to the quack - he's done one the best jobs on a TOS-Romulan Bird-of-Prey I've ever seen

And yes, we have experts from all walks - so take a seat, hold on to your hat, and enjoy the ride

Excuse me 'Atlantis'- but, no, I don't wanna Rosie even if it means she is under the table.

Oh, but thanks for the kind words.

We've had our share of some amazing 'figure painters' here too.
Anyone can start a new thread, link it to an older thread and simply ask how to accomplish what you've seen done.

Thanks to everyone, I am sure going to be reading a lot here.
Later, jeff

Rosie on all fours, could be the table. God what an awful visual. I'm going to wash out my minds eyes with MEK,

I'm sorry to endorse your self inflicted pain but I agree that MEK just might be the only solution.

Skip the MEK - go straight to Hydrofluoric Acid
