Hey guys,

Tools of the Trade - Working with Vallejos Polyurethane Primer

Hey guys,

after reading on DakkaDakka, that some of you have had some problems with Vallejos Polyurethane Surface Primer, I wanted to share my experiences with the product.


For this, I wanted to talk about the Primer itself, how to use it and most important, how to clean your airbrush afterwards.

From Zero to Hero: Thunderhead - Cygnar Character Warjack

Hey guys,

since I had a bit time this weekend, I thought I could do a tutorial on painting the Thunderhead Cygnar Heavy Warjack. I had this one built for quite a while now. The article on how I assembled the model can be found here.

Preview of the finished Warjack.

Progress Report: February 2012

Hey guys,

where did February go? I don't know how, but somehow it just was over so fast. Unfortunately, I didn't get too much done, as I'm still waiting on replacement parts for my Storm Strider Battle Engine. I opened my ticket with Privateer Press over a month ago, but nothing happened so far, except that their website says, that the part has shipped.
