Spinner Report post Posted September 8, 2014 Thanks folks, appreciate the comments. Lets see .. We've got dragons, skulls, terminators and tinkerbell. One of these things is not like the others, one of these things is not the same .... Seriously very nice work, tho. Bill gotta follow the money! Amazing detail is awesome. What type of knife/blade do you use? Love the see no hear no speak no piece I use the Leatherwranglers SK knives, one with a 3/8" angled blade for general work and one with a 1/8" angled blade for details/deep cuts. Stunning work! I especially like the terminator one. Did you use an airbrush to do the shading? Yes sir, The details and tight areas were done with an Iwata Eclipse HP-CS and the big fades were done with an Iwata Neo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chief31794 Report post Posted September 12, 2014 Perfect. Absolutely beautiful and extremely well done on all of them. Love the colors you get and also how you get those colors into the details, like Tinker Bell's eyes. That is ART!!! Chief Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anthonyg1382 Report post Posted September 17, 2014 Im gonna be doing small detail work...I don't want to pay out $40 for a 1/8" blade. Do you think a razor knife would work? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M J Moser Report post Posted September 30, 2014 very cool work - nice detail on the terminator piece especially liked that one. what type of paint/dye are you using (and i'm assuming you're sealing with something as well) (noob to this stuff) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spinner Report post Posted October 5, 2014 For the painting I use a variety of paints, all depends on the colors and coverage I am looking for. My favorites are Games Works Citadel acrylics for general brush work, very durable and the come in a ton of colors. For airbrushing base colors I like Golden Fluid Acrylics and Golden High Flow acrylics. The High flow are amazing for airbrushing, work right out of the bottle and cover very well. I also custom mix colors to get what I want. There is not a good flesh tone on the market so I generally hand mix those. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
