Best FSM Tip
Posted by BarrettDuke on Friday, April 11, 2014 5:51 PM

Forums are all about community. We share among ourselves and help each other as a result. I've seen many people here offer some really good modeling tips and advice, and I've benefited a lot. Others probably have as well. So, what's the best modeling tip or advice you have gotten here at FSM?

The best tip I've gotten so far? The simple comment that you can easily pull the tops off Vallejo paint bottles. I no longer try to squeeze out only as much paint as I need and then watch it dry out as I use it. I know, duh!

Best tip:  Stop!  Go away! If you buy one kit, you will become addicted for life!

Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...

Try a wet palette. If you're using Vallejo in small quantities (eg. painting figures) it prevents your paint drying up before you can use it.
