Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeehawe

I think The Movie The Devil's Avocate was ruined by you knowing ahead of time that Pacino was the Devil, the movie is fine, the clues and reveal are great it's just the title and Trailers........they should have never let n that anyone was the devil or that there was anything Hellish in that film, it would have made the first time watching the film much more enjoyable.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

I liked it anyway.

 

[Roughneck]

I did too, just finished watchig it....but they should have kept the whole Devil thing underwraps until folks saw the movie.....it would be like the previews showing who Kaiser Soze is.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

I know but either way it doesn't make me like it less.

 

[Roughneck]

No but you hve to admit that maybe the first time you might have appreciated it less.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Nope. Not at all. If anything I was eager.

 

[Roughneck]

You know what.......FINE

 

[Roughneck]

Damn...I can't find my Strider Cloak anywhere.......

Since we talked about making mods to Mandarin a while back, found an awesome one on Fwoosh for anyone interested. I think I'm still going with my cloth idea though.

Gee Rough, with the paints and figures you'll be using it would probably be best if you used a primer...


That is all anyone needed to say......It's coming along okay, but I will be getting Primer before doing any others.

 

[Kable24]

[Roughneck]

Nice.... I miss my days of getting cases.

Sorry bro, I didn't respond sooner. Anyway, according to Jin and a few other customizers whose brain I've picked, they say that generally spaeaking the "primer" is the main base color of the figure. Like Deadpool, he'd be painted primarily red as the "Primer" or "Base" and then the black is added for those details and then the colors you decide to use for drybrushing and such go on top of that. But the main thing they say is wash the figures with soap so the "mold release" is gone. The mold release is this stuff they use at the factories so the plastic parts come out of the molds easily (self-explanatory, I know). The paints used in the factories are specifically made to adhere to the plastic without cleaning the mold release though so thats why its still there once we get it. So when repainting you must wash it off and scrub the fig with a soft rag or a soft bristle toothbrush because if not the paint will not adhere completely.

Comprende'??

 

[Roughneck]

now I do

 

[Roughneck]

well it's kina late for this one...two coats is seeming to work fine enough

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Oh no......cracking!!!!

 

[Roughneck]

Anyway I was thinking in the case of Car Painting, where you put down the Primer (Generally yellow or grey) and it's a diffrent texture and stuff like that.

Okay, so just wash the **** out of it with some Soap, then paint it all in a base color then do the rest....Coo.

 

[Roughneck]

Oh no......cracking!!!!

Huh?
