Whoa... Seems I spent a couple hours cleaning mold lines :oops: . 30+ Mantic Ghouls Zombies and Skeletons assembled and ready for priming tomorrow! :geek: The thicker army painter poly cement made assembling them way easier than the superglue I was using for the last ones.

Might as well post it here.
Maybe we should open a sticky thread/forum where Painting and Building Tips are collected by an admin/editor who compiles the stuff from PMs from members. No posting freely, just a list of usefulness.
I'd even do that compiling and editing stuff.

Superglue = only for metal and resin; don't forget to lightly scrub resin pieces under running water before doing anything with it. Metal and resin pieces oftentimes need to be pinned additionally. Very brittle and unstable when used on plastics.

(Plastic) Polycement = only for plastic; this melts the two surfaces, so that it makes one piece of plastic out of two. Utterly useless for resin (like GW Finecast) and the Reaper Bones rubberstuff, as well as Metal.

Sounds like a good idea. Other potential subjects could be:

Spraypaint: Which to use. How to do it. How to not fraggle up.
Varnish: Which to use. How to do it. How to not fraggle up.
Removing paint:

Individual posts could be tutorials for different techniques and stuff.

Exactly. Whoever has a tutorial or a tip, writes it down, sends it to the editor who ...duh, edits, and posts it by editing the original ONE post in the thread for the topic, including credits of course. That's how I think it would work best.

Agreed. I have yet to paint anything and trying to comb through the various threads to get the info on how to do it takes a lot of time. Even then, you're bound to miss important info or incredibly helpful tips.

That is just a really smart idea that KK came up with. A lot of times it feels like hit and/or miss for me whenever I'm trying something new I've never done before. That's even after reading up on as much info as I can find and thinking about it for a week or two.

Pushing my lazy anus to prime the minis I painted and get them basecoated. I sinned yesterday at my local :geek: Hobby store and picked up 2 more GW washes Carroburg Crimson (Baal Red) and Drakenhof Nightshade (Asurmen Blue). Black and brown were only getting me so far. Also got Army Painter Dark Tone ink to try and a matt medium from Michaels to make my own wash, here's hoping it comes out well.
