Check you blog I answered it. No I cant. Why not tomorrow?

Ok, never mind. Deathrex will be there tomorrow, but I still have to see how today goes. My mom says I She should know by tonight. Im looking foward to playing tomorrow!

Who the heck is Deathrex?

A guy on dakka who told me about adventure games. he goes up often, but ive never seen him there. I should be able to make it tommorow, but we will see.

What happened with that lightswitch...wtf... no we don't i only have a stupid cat who likes to sharpen his nails on the walls and sleep on my model/painting area...

I'm liking your acopthairy HONAW! Rather nice paint job! Btw did you strip your libarain? Btw my blog had an update too!

Update.

Here is my Army in the flesh. Some are in the stripper and some are without bases so they are not in the shots. The green guys are from the person I bought them from so they are not painted by me. He must have sprayed them with Krylon as It wont strip which is really annoying! So here are the pics!

LOL! One lony elad againts the might of the imperuim! Linking the group shot!

Does anyone know of any well rounded stripping agent? I am having a lot of trouble stripping some of my marines.

Nail varhish remover! Works very well I've heard or simple green or mr mussle. Most cleaners should do it I geuss, but nail varnish remover is the safest!

That wont melt the plastic right...... I leave them in there a long time..... Will give it a try on a bit!

I belive it sometimes can depening on how long you leave them in for. Tbh your best gamit would be to either use the nail polish remover or do some more reashurch! Theres and article here on dakka I bleive. You tube is also a good source, yet the world wide hummble web is your best source alltogether!

You can't get it the USA but Dettol's the best, nail polish remover is the death for plastics....i commented a while ago on removing paint on someone's topic you should read my post!

Never knew how paint stripping worked but wanted to do it for a while so i did that a week or 2 ago:

1.Bought a bottle of Dettol 500ml(10 euro).

2.Got a glass jar and filled it halfway with Dettol(specifically Dettol because it were all plastics).

3.Tossed in a bunch of chaos marines and terminators a friend of mine gave to me after he quit 40k(painted real thick btw).

4.Waited 12 hours and brushed of the paint.

5. A lot of paint was still there in the recesses, so they liked another bath of Dettol for another 6 hours.

6. After that i brushed them clean another time with an old toothbrush, i didn't washed them with soapy water but let them dry for at least 48 hours in a good-ventilated room.

The models are as new(just as the reuseable Dettol, just get a coffee-filter and get a jar under it and you've got yourself new and fresh paint-remover),

Just posting my experience here hope i helped out someone!

Cheers,

Wolf

Sounds good...... I wish Dettol was available in the states!

Just learnt somthing new too!

I wasn't on dakka last weekend because i was visiting my old folks(my mom's bday and haven't seen my old man in six months).
Got some nice stuff from there as wel:

My old (badly) painted Hammerhead Tank
5 (even worse) painted termi's from maccrage
A sm bike, some other marines
and some chaos marines.

Those guys are so getting a dettol bath tonight

All Right! Crons cant wait to see them!

So...just got home, got myself some dinner, a cardboard box some foil and paper & a sciccor!



Without macro:


With macro function on:


A bright marine!:


So that's all for today, i'll be cleaning up some stuff and maybe unbox the necron thingy, but first! the models named previous today are getting a bath!


EDIT:

BATH TIME!


You can hear the XV25 Stealth Suit screaming FOR THE GREATE..... AAGH MY BLUE PAINT!!!!


The jar they are in in the picture is the main jar, used to let them bathe for hours on(with a hole on the lid), they just took one from 30 minutes and i then put them in the smaller ''shaky jar'' to shake the paint of with just some dettol, now i'll see them tomorrowmorning(9 hours from now) and shake them again, if not all paint is gone they take another bath for 3-5 hours to make sure all is gone.

Wolf out!

Hey nice update! That Dettol really looks lean and mean for stripping! I am almost done with my librarian! Will try to get him up tonight!

LOL! Dettol bath! priceless!

My WIP Librarian. Still needs some more work on the blue and details.

Looks great mike, I really like the cape, it turned out amazing!

So after a good bed time and some breakfast and shower it's time to let the boys out! out of the bathing jar and into the shaky jar!


LET US REMOVE PAINT


Couple of drops of soap, some hot water and 50ml dettol and shaky shaky time!


I got this bugger with the head broken of with the neck still attached, so got myself a new marine head, sliced off the neck and there goes!


The termis just need some scrubbing with a kleenex and they're done!



Cleaned up and gave these guys some arms, friday the jumppacks are in with the mail so those are waiting for the jumppacks



Also with the last step comes that when the models are just out of the dettol, they are very soft, so trimming down stuff and removing mold lines this is the time you have to do it! the last owner of the smurf marines used plastic glue and he wasnt so easy on it, even the chest insignia's were covered in plastic glue! yuck!

That iron priest looks fairly 5th edition. Glad to see the dettol is working out!

Yeah ok but this model is acient man!

Nice stuff man! Keep it up! I like the use of washes for the libarian too!

Not much working on now, i'm at work the whole week so no modelling/painting.
