This is a funny story and i felt i just had to tell someone. I just got my Deff Dread about two days ago, i build it and was ready to spray paint it chaos black. I was spray painting outside in the evening. I layed out some candles just so i could see what i was doing. I was just finishing spraying the front when suddenly the whole model went up in flames. The head was melting and it was carnage. Luckly i managed to save it before much damage was done but still most of the armour and the banner i had put on were melted. Although its not beyond repair its still in bad shape. Lets just hope the Big Meks can save it!

You put flame near a flammable aerosol and a freshly painted model which had been sprayed with said flammable aerosol?

You're doing it wrong. Spraycan needs to be aimed at the flame, not the miniature.

No seriously, I lolled at your act of aweseomness.

I applaud your effort in making a Flaming Deff Dread of Doom. But, you forgot step 1 in the process. You need to re-cast your model using something much more heat resistant. Plastic (or even resin) isn't going to hold up very well to the flames.

Also, I'm not sure why you chose to do this on a Deff Dread. Burna Boyz would seem to be much more appropriate.

Dont get me wrong, this was pretty funny but also a little dumb. Candles? With all the lighting sources you choose candles? To spray a mini? Dude... People have burned down houses and died for less.

A candle? you don't have a flashlight? or a lamp? lightbulb? lol I am confused on that part xD

You are not free whose liberty is won by the rigour of other, more righteous souls. Your are merely protected. Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood.

You know those fake camp fire things? Try making a super small scale device like what is inside of those and the fake fire on top of its head and the air being blown from the inside of the model where the air device is out ontop blowing the fake fire stuffs so it looks like its burning?

the candles thing is funny because, well, because obvious, but also...

how are candles giving you enough light to spray by? They don't give off much light...I call B.S. unless pics.

I'm pointing at - HIM. For obvious reasons.

Spraypainting by candlelight. What next? Refueling the car by torchflame? Checking to see if gas is flowing into the oven by match?
