So I may not play these various miniature games... but I paint.
My specialty is the details. Want your ork to look especially menacing? I have a few tricks for that.

I have been painting since I was 12 from a traditional stand point so occasionally I have tricks that differ from mini painting guides. I will post a picture of what I most recently did to one of Rigus' figures while messing around everyone can see what I mean.
So if anyone wants advice or wants a helpful critique of a figure for any reason... I will be happy to help.

If this sounds pompous... troy can tell me to go make him a sammich at a later date.

I am assuming you know Mike Schaffer he has been setting up various painting tutorials for the club it might behoove you to ask him and see if you could either instruct or help instruct one of the painting tutorials or perhaps you two already have.

This is all provided you have any interest in doing so.

Disregard my earlier encouragement for you to start painting...it seems you already do!

You should PICS OR IT DIDNT HAPPENZ

Apparently (DERAIL!) I have 66 points...hey CW what's a point, how do I get them, what do they do?

Subject: Re: Details Thu Apr 07, 2011 6:46 pm

Posts. More for topic starts(3 I think) but 1 for replies(I think). They don't do anything yet, but we can set them up to.

As for painting, my skills are limited, but I'm still teaching a class! Have a go!(Mind you my class won't really involve paint. shhhh!)

I could always use a critique, but unfortunately, my photography skills are the only things that gets any. I should be getting some decent pics up soon, feel free to lay into my WIP threads. Just be aware, if its varnished, its done! But I will take advice for the future.

OOOO another point for me! I think I'm winning. And I cheat.

You do cheat I have started nearly as many threads as you, albeit I have not replied to nearly as many but you have more than double the points than me or DB...... what the hell man!!!

That's easy! My posts are just better!
Actually it comes from being the first one on the forums, while an admin was checking things out.

If it helps, some how you got the Admin rank, and it left me as a squire.

I honestly don't know which Mike I know vs. The one I know about. Like I said in my intro... I know of most of you... and know a few personally ( so roughly 3 people on here actually know who I am)
Depending on my schedule I might be able to do some sort of instruction thing

Would you be interested in doing any articles? We have a blog, with a long winded writer, who everyone is tired of, and we could use some variety. Oh, there's another guy, but he is mostly news. Wink

I would love to put up an article if you want to do a guest write, or we can easily set you up as a regular if you want to go that route.

She doesent know Mike yet because he is never there when i bring her down to the Shop Razz

Subject: Re: Details Fri Apr 08, 2011 7:12 pm

I might be interested in doing a guest piece. I can't commit to anything longer since I already have a blog and a podcast ( in the works) for music and life.

Sweet! Let me know when and what, and we will get you posted.
