Oh man- this is an insane project! They look so cool already- While I didn't watch much of this show( cuz they aired on Sundays before church,lol) I have fond memories of it. I'm glad you're occupying yourself with this hobby during this time. Be blessed.

Thanks as always, marz. I don't have any time-line on these, I just pick them up as I need to.

no,you mean mixing the paste itselves? I was always wondering about mixing paint directly into,but never tried^^ I nearly finished my still first apoxie after years now and think about giving milliput a try now,cause I can simply get it at a local shop...any experience with this? I've been told it's the same as green stuff.so my question: does green stuff stick exactly as good to the plastic as aves apoxie do?

No, I mean using both mediums on one figure. I haven't used miliput, but I like green stuff for the bulkier sculpt and for areas that may flex, like legs. It's sticks perfectly, but doesn't take detail as well as apoxie, so I use them interchangeably

Thanks Edgy, I'm glad I got turned on to the 4" blanks out there, they've made it so I can actually afford this hobby. ML and other good 6" fodder is just too expensive now.

On Imgur, you can just right click the picture and Copy Image Location. Paste that, it's the direct link. It's the same as the BBC/Forum link just without the IMG tags around it.

That did it, but I had to remeber to resize them too, I'm not the best when it comes ti shared media. I don't have a Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, none of it.

That's what I did, and what you see above is what it gave me, used the URL option per the FR instructions.
