    My neck is ok I just can't really see what's in front of it very well these days.
    Ya both took the thoughts outta my head!
    Man, you have got to stop leaving that little door open... we can see right in there....

    I can just see it now. All his old unwanted decals, and cut outs of box art decorating the brace...
    Hate decals!! I'll stencil them on instead!!
    If you bought it, we brought it.

    You could use 'puff-paint' too.

    I like them! I don't have any experience painting anything larger than 1/48, and think it must be fun. Really stretches your painting skills, I would imagine.

    Re: Attempt at figures

    There's a guy I met who paints the most beautiful figures. I started asking him what his procedure is...well, it's complicated and I don't pretend to remember everything he said. Funnily, I said that if I was painting a figure, I'd just do the same as I do on a vehicle. He said; 'Hmmm...that could work but...'. I'm not sure what the 'but' meant, but this guy sure knows his stuff.
    Here's his work here...

    Peace.
