An Me509- to fight cancer!
« on: November 05, 2012, 11:04:35 AM »
I've entered a group build to benefit cancer research.  You can read about here,My link and there's still time to sign up- or simply donate a buck or two. 



Well, here I go- better late than never!   Since I'm in a time bind, I can't guarantee that the girls show up on a regular basis- I'm busy buildin', man!  ;)















MOD EDIT: Fixed a link!

 Always nice to see Fritzi ( though my heart belongs to Hannah ) and I'm sure this will be another
 show-stopping build. Good on ya doin' it for a worthy cause.

 ...and a quick tangential question- what is that Mech on the screen of your phone?!

Welcome to BtS, Chuk' and Fritzi (panting) and Pfennig and the rest too. Have followed your projects for a long time. Didn't know you did digital art as well, .... pretty excellent practice! That belongs on DeviantArt if not there already.

Happy to welcome you to this land of immeasurable improbability !

rrrRRRROOOWWWLLlllllllllll! *ahem* Yes, and ah, stunning modelling as well. The tip with the dry brushing
techinque is a welcome one-I would'nt have thought of oils for it. What advantages do they offer over
acrylics, Chuk?

Here's the latest scooby- from our gal Fritzi.

Thanks, guys!   

Gingie- make sure you get the smelly stuff- the water-based offering doesn't really cut it.   

I'm off for a lengthy Christmas break in a couple of days- more to come!
