Thanks its a surprisingly easy texture to create.

sounds promising

got the stripe done on the door... it still needs a little weathering but its largely done... Pics later at some point...

when is later?

Now...

Still need to add some weathering to the door, but have added sand, and mostly finished the Lava.

Next big thing will be the "water" (sillicone caulking) for the surfacing of the "wet" parts. and painting up and affixing the palm trees.















Overview with flash

the door is very good looking... weathered signs and the hazard stripes are top notch!
lava i like too!!! but i really hope you do something about those palm trees to make them look more convincing... you will repaint them???

also...if you use sillicone caulking... will it stay ever so slightly sticky to the touch?... i know watereffects are way too expensive...just asking^^

No it should fully cure to a hard rubber texture. And i am indeed painting up the palm trees.

Supplied by the Client.

on to Pics of the current state of progress...

Those look really good Sam! Much better to keep the trees seperate and mobile.

Really impressive display board. Very well done, trees are a fantastic touch.

Maybe... That would be a relatively easy retrofit later, but for now they are getting glued into place...

possibly since it is no longer an active correctional institution. But I believe they filmed most of the walking dead near atlanta.

I'm guessing the base was built into the volcano...

Hmmmm, the water needs sharks with friggin' lasers on their heads then!

Well So far People are REALLY DUMB around here. And the collective response is Eff you terrorists but I'll stay home if the police tell me to...


I'll get Pics up of the painting commissions I've been working on tonight when I get home from work.

I was one town over... First guy got perforated then his bro ran him over to escape, there are/were pics of the body on a coroners slab... yep I'm curious how it was received.

The bottle is my handy water container to clean my airbrush. It is a nice model.

I've gotten one painting commission done, I'll get pics tonight inbetween (hopefully pouring some molds...) currently my shift at work today is 10am to 8pm... whee.


On to Pics of the completed commission.

Fantastic Galorn! Much better than the Blue Cadians I started. I especially like the armor highlights!
