    Any Vegetarians on This Board?

    Love the turtle pic! I am not vegetarian, but I do find myself making more meals without meat - something I used to feel I needed - but really don't miss. I use a fair amount of tofu, beans (I make a killer black beans and rice), and I've recently taken to quinoa (love it with fried eggs for...

    Custom muscular bootleg body help

    I'm not familiar with the particulars of this body, but if I could not get the joint apart, I would try tightening it up by putting a tiny dab of superglue into the joint and moving it until the glue sets up completely. Care should be taken to move both parts of the joint so the other does not...

    A freaking mouse in the house!

    It may just come back in if it likes your place. My wife once put a cup over a reportedly big spider in our tub and waited for me to come home and deal with it. When I lifted the cup,... no spider. It was probably so big it lifted the cup itself! She was a bit unnerved. hehehe

    What are you eating...

    Fried eggs and quinoa. Recently tried them together and I found a winning combo! Now if I only had some jalapeno cheddar pull-apart-bread,... Oh! and a beer....

    A freaking mouse in the house!

    The Ween is right, they can find a way out that you can't see. It may have even left the house after the experience with the cat. A simple old fashion mouse trap is your best bet. Everyone wants to build a better mouse trap... But I do have a suggestion on how to bait it that works like a charm...

    Please, what is the color in this picture?

    SheSaMona, I've seen you asking about flesh colors twice now. Sadly, it is usually more complicated than buying a jar of paint. In most cases you will need to mix your own color by getting a similar flesh and adjusting it with the addition of other colors. You may need to add some white to...

    Bland looking body is it paintable?

    Paintable? - most likely - do you know the material? Difficult to help without seeing what you are working with. Photos go a long way - can you post some pics? It sounds like you want to do some kind of color wash to bring out the shadows in the creases. Before that I think I would add some...

    Custom painting Beginner

    I paint professionally. I work with lacquers, which adhere well to production paints. I don't strip figures or use primer (unnecessary build-up). If you are working with acrylics only, you may need at least a light coat of a primer over production paints in order to get good adhesion. In any...

    Hello from Astounding

    Thanks Owl, My interests range quite a bit. I like DC, mostly the women of DC. I also like Marvel, mostly X-men. In either case the female characters generally have a grace that I find more appreciative in a static pose. But I also like Alien/Predator, dragons and other fantasy... That is one...
