After looking how sad my Coffee Mug full of brushes looked I gladly said yes.<br />

Not knowing exactly what to expect I soon got a package in the mail....That package that had 5 MDF laser cut parts in it that was SO WONDERFUL smelling It took me back in time to when I could smell wood burning stoves and fireplaces. Being in South East Alabama now I dont get the opportunity to smell those anymore. Anyway I quickly assembled the brush rack (5 mins tops) and started putting it to use. When I had finished and saw how awesome this thing was I asked myself... "this thing is ONLY $10??". Its an amazing deal.<br />

SO I needed to make mine a little more..... "Munkey". So I started up and set out to make it Hot rod!!! I got busy with the Airbrush and made some cool effects and then went to my Vinyl Plotter and whipped up some custom Flaming dice Stencils and airbrushed them to a piece of black poster board that I then glued to the supports. Here is what it looked like when I was done:<br />

Yea... Something I was happy to put my brushes on!!! Anyway Back to the review, Here is the cut and dry of it...<br />
<br />
Pros:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><b>Price</b>- At $10 you almost cant go wrong. Its a great deal.</li>
<li><b>Design</b>- its made to be easily loaded and unloaded and there is room on the "hooks" for multiple brushes OR for bigger brushes like terrain brushes or the like.</li>
<li><b>Assembly</b>- Its 5 parts and almost go together by themselves.... Easy to put together!!</li>
<li><b>Sturdiness</b>- Its Laser cut MDF and its built to last a while. I did put 6 drops of superglue on mine to lock the joins but they may not be needed.</li>
<li><b>Smell</b>- Laser cut MDF smells GREAT to me as I like the smell of a campfire and the great outdoors. This pleased me almost more than anything else...</li>
</ol>
<div>
Cons:</div>
<div>
Long term storage- Someone mentioned that storing brushes horizontal for extended periods of time will cause the bristles to "bend"... While I don't know about this I will list it as a "con" because it was something someone on the internet wasn't happy with... and I needed ONE THING in the con section. ;) if you put your sheaths back on your brushes and actually use brush soap with them and take care of your brushes it should not be a problem</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Overall I Love this holder and plan to purchase 2-3 more for other brushes I have I need to put up. Its a home run in my opinion and I am happy I got one. Its a great product and its easy on the wallet to boot.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Till next time </div>

Munkey!!</div>

these were pieced together from the old tracks and surprisingly I was able to do alot of cheating and reused most of the broken links. Im not terribly worried about the detailed lok as much as I am about "Table Top" look. I used "Framers Matting" as my stock to fill in the missing parts and only cut a rectangle. you can detail it if you wish with cutouts on the sides for the indv links and use a ballpoint pen to make a divot to look like links but I dont care enough with this tank to do that.<br />
<br />
Next will be spraypaint and then to the paintbooth!! Im painting it with Navy (Dark Blue) Krylon American classics because thats what I have here and can find close to the color I was painting them before. from there I will Airbrush highlights and such on it then details, and final step will be weathering!!!

After a Super Clean soak (<a href="http://munkeyjoe40k.blogspot.com/2012/10/stripping-revisited.html" target="_blank">tut here</a>) of about 6 hours (I let it soak while I slept) I woke up and took a toothbrush to the parts. they came mostly apart and some of the superglue had released and broken apart. Here is a quick pic of what it looked like after the strip:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt909fcLT8bIGfP8h2Ze6ceZLWO7jbGIqDKsjc9AxDubDI3IEaAPuZ05GJzh8QUi9J4HfQxaK1XKoa-By5tU12Tmw2ARBstttEb0q4SDfnAvRrz4keKzbycKk1wtbu3C8r6-e9TcvnC7nM/s1600/unnamed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt909fcLT8bIGfP8h2Ze6ceZLWO7jbGIqDKsjc9AxDubDI3IEaAPuZ05GJzh8QUi9J4HfQxaK1XKoa-By5tU12Tmw2ARBstttEb0q4SDfnAvRrz4keKzbycKk1wtbu3C8r6-e9TcvnC7nM/s1600/unnamed.jpg" height="239" width="320" /></a></div>

<br />
Now as you can see it did really well in the strip bath. I then strained out the liquid and tossed in the red rhino pictured in the group shot in the last post. It seems to still be working fine and the red rhino was crazy with thick paint so it wont hurt to leave it in for a while!!! Anyway I went to town breaking apart the model so I can ensure good joints and proper placement. I used my <a href="http://munkeyjoe40k.blogspot.com/2012/04/how-to-stripping-tools-and-equipment.html" target="_blank">tool kit</a> and made pretty quick work of the joins. Trouble areas on this model were the tracks (plastic glued in place) and the floor (also plastic glued). the tracks will have to be spliced together and such to look good but its not too bad. The floor was a pain in the neck... I had to cut out some of the floor to get it to set correct (It was plastic glued in wrong and I had to break and hack it to fit somewhat correct!!) and did some gluing with plastic glue to get a strong bond on some not so stable body parts. Its pretty strong now but it was a bear to fit it correct!! Anyway I got it glued back together and am working on the tracks now... here are pics of how it looks now<br />

<br />
the body sub assembled. I had to do this to ensure correct placement as a unit, so top was glued into one side and bottom was to the other. when that was dry I then fitted them together to make it a whole body.<br />

As you can see this is a wreck..... Its a mix of superglue, plastic glue and hot glue, and there was an attempt to magnetize parts SO I might properly attach some magnets for the sponsons. the tracks need to be redone, as well as alot of glue work.... But first it goes to the Purple Pond for a soak to clean up some paint!!!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03319795328210255295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1104777052925743794.post-87746409445448317882013-12-29T12:38:00.001-08:002014-01-04T19:41:16.752-08:00You Get What You Pay For!Hello Everyone! <br />
<br />
I am here blogging as a special guest on Munkey Joe's blog. This is my first time using blogger so please bear with me if it comes out looking all weird. =) For those who might not know me, my name is Lyn Stahl. I am the owner of Metalhead Minis- Commission Painting, Consignment, and Sales. Metalhead Minis was established in 2009, but I have been painting and collecting since 1997. Aside from Metalhead Minis, I also teach painting at multiple conventions such as GenCon and Genghis Con, I compete in painting competitions, and write articles for multiple hobby magazines around the world such as Figure Painter Magazine. <br />
<br />
I wanted to take a moment to post some information regarding obtaining commission paint jobs from professional painters. Often times, when professional painters hangout and "talk shop", one of the most common topics is the fact that a lot of people feel our rates are too high and such. I have been thinking that there is a missing piece to this puzzle. The piece that I think is missing is that perhaps if people were honestly educated about why the prices are what they are that it might help the client side understand much better. I am hoping that this can be quite helpful all around. <br />
<br />
Now just to be clear, there are many different professional painting businesses out there and they all have different rates for different reasons. For example, some businesses have overhead costs to consider as they might pay rent for a separate space to paint outside of their home. Some businesses might also outsource some of their work to save time, or charge per hour instead of a flat rate. Keep in mind that while it might make the prices a little higher, this might be a system that works specifically for the business and serves as a benefit to both the painter's work and their clients. My objective in writing this blog post is not to speak for all the miniature painting services out there. The information in this blog I have made sure to keep pretty general using average numbers and such as a "starting point" (for lack of a better term). This is just to help people in the community have an understanding.<br />
<br />
We all know the saying "Time is money."<br />
When it comes to commission painting, it is no different. When professional painters are working on a paint job, our time is worth money. Professional painters put a lot of money and time into their skill to get to that point.<br />
<ul>
<li><u><b>Paint and Supplies</b></u>- Professional painters have to obtain a lot of supplies in order to start painting for clients. These items include (but are definitely not limited to) : Green stuff, Milliput, basing supplies, brushes, paints, airbrush, drills, pins, glues, and mixing mediums. These supplies can range from costing hundreds to thousands of dollars depending on how much they have of these items. </li>
<li><u><b>Education</b></u>- While this type of job does not require a college degree or a certification, the amount of time that an actual professional painter puts into learning their craft and staying up to date can run into just as many study hours. The education is obtained through classes at different conventions, books, website/video tutorials, instructional DVDs, and paint club meetings. </li>
</ul>
With these points considered alone, it is easy to see why a professional painter would want to earn a return on the hard work they have put in.<br />
Professional painters who also compete and have won prestigious awards and commendations (I.E.- Golden Demon, Crystal Brush) might charge a higher rate which is understandable. Many sleepless nights were had in order to perfect their competition pieces and show their dedication to the craft. A lot of the awards out there are actually not that easy to obtain. <br />
Depending on what quality paint job you as the client are looking for, it must be understood that you "get what you pay for". This is another saying that I am sure we are all familiar with. Once or twice I am sure that at least some of you have either made a purchase, had a car repair, or home repair done. Thought you were being given a great deal, it was super cheap, and then in the end found out that it was crap, and had to go somewhere else and pay a little more to have the job done right. There are a lot of horror stories in relation to commission painting through someone that was not a professional. The most common ones:<br />
<ul>
<li>This person charged me $20 (or some other low price) to paint my figure/s. It has been a year and I have not received it back yet.</li>
<li>This person charged me (insert low, low price here) to paint my figure/s and when I got them back they were not they were not painted the way I asked. Now I have to get them repainted. </li>
</ul>
There are other horror stories, but I am sure these two alone should suffice. I am sure you get the point.<br />
<br />
Let's talk about average hours and prices. Again, keep in mind that this is an <i>average</i> to give you an informational starting point, not actual. Professional painters paint at different speeds and all do things differently. These averages are based on a 28mm miniature. <br />
<ul>
<li>The average rate for a table top quality (gaming quality) painted figure is $10-$30 as they take about 1-3 hours to complete.</li>
<li>The average hourly rate that a commission painting business charges is $10-$15 per hour. </li>
<li>High table top quality (a nicer table top quality that has more layering of colors and blending) figures take an average of 3-8 hours to complete. </li>
<li>Display quality (collector quality, these models are primarily used for display cases) painted models take an <i><b>average minimum </b></i>of 20+ hours to paint. </li>
</ul>
Double the times for larger figures (I.E.- 54mm)<br />
Triple the times for dragons. <br />
<br />
Most miniature painting services also charge separately for assembly, drilling, gap filling, and pinning. This is because depending on the figure, assembling a figure can take hours alone. This especially holds true for larger figures and dragons. <br />
<br />
I hope that this has been helpful. =)<br />
Please feel free to get in touch with me if you have other questions.<br />
Happy Painting to All!<br />

I hate that, as I am almost positive It was something on my end and Im quite sure it was my failure to hit post before closing out the window. SO I will repost it here to the best of my memory and then do the post I had planned for today in a couple of days.<br />
<br />
OK here we go.... The post that was SUPPOSED to be Jan 15th.... Lucky me I made a outline on paper!!!<br />
<br />
You Tube!! Munkey Joe Goes LIVE.... Sorta!!!<br />
<br />
Munkey Joe Paints and Castings Now has a you tube Channel and I will be doing videos and tutorials On several different subjects such as painting, Casting, Terrain, army building, Various Money saving hints, and basicly many aspects of the Hobby. My Main effort is to have a channel that can entertain and educate you in the hobby even if your a seasoned Vet, or if you Just bought you FIRST box of minis. There will be something for everyone on my channel.<br />
<br />
My main strong points are casting and casting tutorials, and tips and tricks. So the MAIN focus will be Hobby resin and casting. Im a decent enough painter and an OK model builder So I will toss some of that in there too no worries.<br />
<br />
Im starting out small and am working now with a Buddy who is good with Photoshop and some video editing to help make my title screens and intro parts. As of right now Im recording with my cell phone and am looking for some sort of video editing software to make movies with (EDIT I found Voices of Mars <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl2M1FPC0KY" target="_blank">VIDEO</a> helpful with this, Im going to buy Vegas I think). Once I get set up things will be going better and I hope to have better quality stuff for you.<br />
<br />
My itinerary for videos will be mostly my Casting class outline filmed as a seminar. I will cover basic casting and advanced casting and will mostly be dealing with Silicone and urethane resin. Here is the "plan" but notice that things happen and this is subject to a bit of change, as well as Video Length may modify some of the videos. I hate Long boring videos, so I wont make them if I dont have to.<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">Dark Hunter Marines</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I have made a bit of progress here BUT I am going to have these ready in the first quarter of the year. This is going to be my "army" to learn 6th ED with and want to get them knocked out. I have a lot of stuff to do yet but I'll get them knocked out and get to playing. With this new understanding I can get my IG changed up and get them on the table too. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">Commission Painting</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I have currently have 5 minis to paint up from O1I and a handful of terrain projects for the club. Im using one of the "True Scale Termies" from Three Stage Studios I have as the basis of a Typhus and another one as a Iron Warrior for some friends. Im doing this as the casts are not too great. This about does it for Commisions as I am not really wanting to get into that whole scene again.....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">Steampunk chest</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I got a bunch of new gears and such for Christmas so this project is headed forward. Its at a slow pace but I hope to have it done by summertime.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">Terrain.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As Mentioned earlier I have some Club projects and such in store and I have some planned for this new year. I have several projects planned but nothing real concrete but stuff to spruce up the club a bit.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">Comp Painting</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Oh the COMP PAINTING.... OK this is where I plan to spend a LOT of time this year. I plan on several painting comps both online and in person. I am entering some things in Gencon, and at a close FLGS called Dropzone Games. I will put some display pieces at my Local game clubs hangout Hobbytown Frederick. THIS is where 50% of my hobby is going to go this year.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
Casting<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This is another large part of my Hobby time this year. I have a lot of projects and plans for this year. nothing Im gonna slip out just yet BUT with the warmer weather I plan to cast up a lot of things.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">Work and real life</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">This always takes a ton of my time. Work Work Work. I may be looking for a new job sometime this year and I also want to get hot on my RN degree again. Im starting to miss medicine (I was a Army Medic for 11 years and just Dropped it) and my Doctor actually gave me a scolding and it opened my eyes a bit, soooooo Yea Im needing to do something with my Life. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">So those are the plans for 2013 For Munkey Joe Paints and Castings. If you have any comments or such Feel free to add or Email me at Munkeyjoe75 AT Gmail DOT com. </span></span><br />

Hi Everyone!! Just a quick "TUT" of sorts for all of you aspiring guardsmen out there. I had to build up a piece of terrain for my local club and I decided to put a sandbag emplacement on it as the Original had a small crappy one on it. Anyway here is how I did it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
First off I got my base and planned directly on it. I got a piece of scrap plywood I had and put Foamcore on it with a hot glue gun. The foamcore is so I can actually hollow out an area for the emplacement. After that I drew out the area for the actual building to set so I can place it back later after I build up some areas. I then cut out the emplacement area and used filler to smooth out the edges.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After then I made a pattern of the hole I cut out to have a place to build up my sandbags. I do this as not to smash the foamcore while trying to texture and build the wall. Also the filler was still wet and it gave me a dry area to build on.</div>

After I round out a bunch of them and have a good supply I then start to build my wall. I build in a "true" fashion and interlock the bags. this adds stability to the bags wall and realism. If your needing help with this Google Sanbag bunkers and the like and you should get some good pictures. Anyway interlocking them makes them look real and remember they are NOT PERFECT so dont be afraid to misalign them a tad bit. SOME people texture them either by pressing cloth into them OR putting cloth band aides on their fingers and pressing their fingers into them. Also a good idea is to take a sculpting blade or knife edge and score a "seam" into the edge of the bags. I did not do this in these because I was in a rush and forgot. Oh well its only a club peice and when I repair it I will do it next time!!! LOL<br />

Here is the bunker wall I made and then baked to make it hard. I then glued it to the base and painted it. I will show pics of that in the next day or so.<br />

And Thats it!! Thats how I built the sand bag wall!!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03319795328210255295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1104777052925743794.post-24160759459793877262012-12-14T10:37:00.001-08:002012-12-14T10:37:30.612-08:00SO Whats been going on the past MONTH??Ok well it HAS been almost a month since I have updated BUT this is my Busy time of the year with my Work and real life. Not to make excuses though I have made a LITTLE progress on some projects and will share those now.<br />
<br />
Dark Hunter Marines<br />
I have made very little progress on them. I have sprued the pads for casting and Will be casting them soon, HOPEFULLY later today. We will see.<br />
<br />
Commission Painting<br />
I have made a little progress here. I have assembled and primed them and decided I do not like the way they are attached to their "Tabs" so I am cutting them off the tabs and going to make special bases for them all. I am going to start with the Dwarf or the Assassin And go from there. Both were sawn from their tabs and mounted to a painting holder. I will have pics of these sometime soon.<br />
<br />
Steampunk chest<br />
This is where I have made the most progress here. I have torn down a old paper shredder we had for some Large gears and little "oddities" and I will cast these in Resin (they are metal!!) so I can shape them easier. I have bought a reproduction license from Dragon Forge to use his Gears in the sculpt and have assembled quite the collection of Gears and bobs to make the sculpt. I also have purchased Bronze powder for it and have a good idea of what I am going to be doing. Now that I have most everything at hand I will be sculpting the box as soon as I get some scrapbooking foil. I am using a method I learned from a friend who scrapbooked and its a texturing technique that looks Just fantastic. Here is a pic of how it will look<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
The sculpt itself will be mostly foamcore as a base and will be then cast in resin once sculpted. It SHOULD be a cool little chest for nick nacks and I am considering making 2-3 sizes and shapes. Maybe a pencil holder also... Dunno. We shall see here too....LOL<br />
<br />
Terrain.<br />
I have made a couple pieces of terrain for the club in this month. Nothing real fancy but I built a generic building and a building with a sandbag pit. I will post the sandbag pit one after this post as I made a little tut for it.<br />
<br />
Comp Painting<br />
I have really not done much here, but I am Gearing up for it. I found an old Ertl model of an ATST i had and think I might build and paint that as well as the Dust stuff and other ideas I had. Im running out of time for sure BUT Its for gencon so i do have some time. I just might not be doing everything I wanted and concentrate on a couple of projects.<br />
<br />
Work and real life<br />
THIS is where most of my time has gone. Im working alot as everyone wants to take off from work to Hunt and spend holidays with Family SO I have been doing alot of OT. ALOT!! Also as My Wifes family will be coming down to MD for the holidays We are cleaning and digging in storage to get all the Decorations out and all of the extra stuff IN. The Family sleeps in the spare room and that unfortunately is where my paints and such are set up SO But getting ready for Family I am having to bury my hobby stuff.<br />
<br />
Anyway Thats whats been going on around here so Keep you Thought pure and Purge the Filthy Xenos!!<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
OK well I have all of the troops repaired and Primered now and have started painting with Blue Spray paint. I am doing the "Ron Saikowski <a href="http://fromthewarp.blogspot.com/2012/02/how-i-paint-ultramarines-dark-and-very.html" target="_blank">Dark and Fast</a> Method" that uses Spray paint to achieve a Very quick and good looking <a href="http://fromthewarp.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-do-basic-zenithal-highlighting.html" target="_blank">basic zenithal highlighting</a> effect for a model. Im using Rustoleum Midnight Blue over Primer Black. This is giving me a VERY DARK blue. Im gonna actually say TOO dark. So Im going to continue and lighten up the blues with the old trusty Airbrush and try to get some color varients in there so it doesnt look like blue spraypainted models on the table. Here is a couple of Pics of the WIP...</div>

SO Thats about how I did them... Heres a breakdown<br />
I drilled a hole into a foot of EVERY TROOP. I then cut toothpicks in half with nippers and glued them in the hole in the foot where the pointy part was down. This will serve as a attachment and holder for while Im painting and allow me to hold the mini without touching it. You can see the tooth picks on the minis in the pictures. From there I drilled holes into a scrap board I had to allow the toothpicks to go into to allow the minis to have a stand for holding them while drying and such. Thhis allows me to hold and paint the mionis and gives me a place to set them to allow the primer and paints to dry. Sometimes I find the toothpicks Kinda fiddly so I often push the toothpicks into some sort of "Cork" to serve as a Larger area to hold. I normally have Wine corks I use BUT on such a large project I dont have NEAR that many SO i went to my Local craft store to find some. Corks were expensive at Jo Ann fabrics So I went to the Foamy section and picked up some "foam Marshmallows" to serve as Corks. These were Called "Darice Foamies Shapes-Marshmallows" and cost about 2-3 bucks for 15. I found that using these they were not Heavy enough nor wide enough to support the mini Like real corks would so I had to build a "jig" to hold them. SO I went to Home depot, bought a 2x3 framing stud for a dollar (Literally $1!!!) and sawed it into 4-2 foot sections. I then took a 1 inch paddle bit and drilled one inch hole in the board to put the marshmallows. You can see Both of my Jigs in the pictures. And TA_DA!!! I have a painting jig and holder for painting!!<br />
<br />
I ALSO Got my Shoulder pads in the Mail from Ben AKA Fleafa at <a href="http://mastercrafted.co.uk/" target="_blank">mastercrafted.co.uk</a> And they look AMAZING!!! Here Look!!!<br />

Well Crap.... Trust me then. They Look GREAT!!! I bought these and the rights to cast them up so Look for a mold making post and casting post sometime in the near future.<br />
<br />
And Also I got another package in the mail..... Minis for a "commission" paintjob!!! Oliver AKA 01i From <a href="http://tablewarfare.com/table-warfare.htm" target="_blank">Table Warfare</a> Sent out 5 minis for me to paint up for him and photograph and in return I get to KEEP THEM!!! They seem to be decent enough sculpts and I look forward to putting them together and painting them up. My goal on them is to have all 5 painted and based before Valentines day. That gives me 3 months to paint them to a HIGH standard and also continue working on my projects and Comp pieces for Gencon..... Oh wait did I say Painting Comp pieces for Gencon??? Yea I did....Oops, I guess the cats out of the bag now Huh???<br />

Well I recently was talking with a friend and come to find out I was using it wrong. I got some tips from my buddy (who swears by it) and I stripped my Dark Hunters marines using the tips I got from him.... and we now swear by it too.... Its actually VERY GOOD!!! But Why?? HOW do I use It??? Well here is all you need to know about Super Clean as a stripper!!!<br />
<br />
First things first Where do you get it??<br />
I got mine from a local Auto supply, but you should be able to find it at any auto supply like Advanced or Pep boys, or even Walmart. Your looking for the Jug like I have above NOT the spray. It should be between $6-10, I paid $10 but my friend Lyn Stahl has it in TX for about $6.....Remember Jug NOT spray<br />

What does it do?<br />
Well it removed paint from Plastic metal and resin. I have noticed that simple green works good on plastic but sometimes doesnt do resin. Also SG will eat impurities in metal where this will not. Also if left long enough it will also break the bond of superglue because its a chemical process that we will get into soon.<br />
<br />
How do I use it???<br />
Well follow the basics in my stripping tut. As for the Liquid Use 50/50 Super Clean concentrate and regular tap water. Diluting it in water is actually necessary to be more effective though. This has something to do with the hydroxide ions being dissolved and such but Chemistry class was so long ago. Anyway Ensure there is enough liquid to cover your models and I was using a 2.5 gallon bucket from Home Depot VS a 5 gallon. I was unaware of the ingredients and I did not use gloves for the first strip, as I rarely wear gloves when stripping with SG.... BAD IDEA!! You can see how I have stripped all the oils out of my left hand and have a Dry skin issue. It went away after 2-3 days and hand lotion.<br />

The reason it dries out your hands is it contains Sodium Hydroxide and uses it as a degreaser so... ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES!!! Also good ventilation is always good. Its also safe to pour down the drain if you want as its not toxic.<br />
<br />
<br />
Now How does this work exactly???<br />
Whats going on is really a chemical reaction with the Hydroxide ions and the paint. I like to think of it as like soda. the more I agitate it the more bubbles release and such SO if I reuse the solution over and over eventually it will go flat. Adding more Solution brings back the soak to optimum levels again, but I have been using the solution till its "flat" then starting new. If you choose to reuse it and just add more dont dilute it as the water from the first mix and the "used" cleaner is basically water too so just add more concentrate to your mix.It comes down to availability of the ions in the solution to bind with the paint, which is going to be a function of the paint you're stripping, the solvent content, and the water content, assuming it works the way I think it does.The trick is also to remove excess paint as you can, allowing new paint to be exposed to the solvent. It is recommended to take a soft toothbrush to the models 30 to 60 minutes after they hit the dip, and then again another 30 to 60 minutes later. I dont always do this as I dont like to brush them but once but if you want the best strip you can. I just let them soak for a bit and then scrub them down. If its not clean I toss it back in and get it later. But Im lazy. Its ALSO good to point out that Chemical reactions are picky and lazy, and not smart. As you strip paint from the model, the large chunks of paint are often left in the solution. The solvent doesn't care if the paint is on the model or not so it's going to react no matter what. A large amount of your solvent is being used up in unnecessarily dissolving this paint that has sloughed off in the soak. Another reason it is recommended to take a brush to the model within the first hour or two a few times, removing those large amount of paint that are loose enough for you to remove, but otherwise will waste a bunch of your solvent's stripping power. Remember the soda.... this is like shaking your bottle before you pour it in a glass.<br />
<br />
And from a Forensic Chemist This is whats going on....<br />
SuperClean contains EDTA. EDTA is an agent that will help with water hardness and acrylic paint is water soluble. The hardness is caused by for example calcium and magnesium ions (the cause of scale on kettles and in bathrooms, etc) and EDTA is a chelating agent - basically mopping up these ions, softening the water and therefore helping the solubility of the acrylic paint and making the sodium hydroxide in solution more effective. Sodium metasilicate also decreases water hardness. The Poly(oxy blah blah) is a surfactant - it lowers the tension between two liquids and you'll see various surfactants in every detergent known to man - basically helping break down the barrier between two liquids. When that barrier is lowered it aids in cleaning.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Well thats a mouthful but in Monkey terms its making it good. It works and thats what matters. Really. So my assessment?? Its what Im going to use to strip paint off plastics from now on. Its amazing how well it works and I am planning on getting rid of all my simple green and replacing it with super clean.</span><br />

<br />
OK well first off Its the Day after the Storm, As some of you know Im on the East coast (Washington DC area) and we are dealing with Hurricane Sandy. Last night was the landfall and downgrade to Tropical Storm but We are all OK here and I personally had no flooding nor damage as far as I can tell. Here are some pics from a buddy and coworker of Mine <a href="http://www.petefourwinds.com/home.php" target="_blank">Pete Giove-FourWinds</a> who lives about a mile from me and is a professional part time Photographer. The link contains his portfolio which also contains Galleries that contain nudity. BE WARNED if you are sensitive.<br />

Again we are fine and alls Well....<br />
<br />
NOW on to the MEAT!!! Dark Hunter Marines!!!<br />
I have finished stripping the Marines and have been busy repairing some of them I broke and those who are not what I want. I have not been to storage for more bitz but Im able to get most of what Im wanting, and will build more when I go to storage for the proper bitz. There is about 100 power armored marines, 30 Termies, 10 assault marines, 25 Bikes and 6 speeders. I have not started with the rhinos yet, but Im going to put up to 6 rhinos in the army. Here is some pics:<br />

Today these will get placed on Painting sticks (toothpicks in the feet) and HOPEFULLY basecoated/primered. I am using American Accents Midnight Blue as my base color/primer.<br />

Its currently 40 degrees F and Rain so we will see about priming today. I might do it in the foyer to avoid the rain but its still cold... And once its primed I will start painting with the Airbrush and I cant do that outside without freezing, so Im needing a indoor spray booth. I'll look into that but it might just be a table by a window and a fan blowing out....LOL<br />
<br />
As far as Pads Im getting some masters made from a buddy <a href="http://mastercrafted.co.uk/" target="_blank">Ben AKA Fleafa</a> and will cast them myself for this project. Im planning on putting the chapter badge on BOTH shoulders with a white shield for the chapter icon and colored shields on the other shoulder for squad markings. Also I plan to do the rims maybe a different color on the squad pads... foe easy ident on the table. Im not sure yet. Now I have YET to pay Ben for them so.... They will be later......<br />
<br />
AS for Bases Im going to use <a href="http://dragonforge.com/index.html" target="_blank">Dragonforge</a> "Parched Earth" Set in a Blue-Grey ash waste theme to tie in to the blues of the Armor but be much lighter in color. Maybe paint in the sand brown like the pics but give a blue glaze when done to shade and tie in....Anyway Here are the bases:<br />

Well DAMN!! The Executioners stole my Iconography!!! The Bastards!!! So I looked more into the Executioners and found not only did I like their Icon but the also had a blue color scheme before Forge World changed my FLUFF!!! (this is another rant altogether though!!)</div>

NOW this Kinda fits my Objective of working more with the airbrush as I can do the camo with an Airbrush, but I however do not like it. Really I dont like it. And I have seen Executioners before but have never seen Dark Hunters So what Im going to do is a little bit of Heresy. Im going to use the icons as Dark hunter Icons and paint them as Dark hunters. I will however look to the fluff in the FW books from the Executioners to pattern my vehicles and squad markings some. </div>

Im thinking I will Like this "new" direction and then I will have a good playable army and work on my airbrush tech for painting minis. I picked up some Tamiya acrylics and Airbrush hose for my new airbrushes (im going from an Iwata to Badgers I got on Ebay). Im going with Tamiya Flat blue with field blue and medium blue to act as my highlight and shade.</div>

I have my beloved Red Scorpions That are ALL FORGEWORLD MK4 armors that I'm building up as well as painting and rebasing my Catachans. The Red Scorpions are of course going to take some time as Im wanting to paint them well and make them look good as its $40 for 5 marines.... So I want my moneys worth and will take some time to do. As for the Catachans Im doing swamp base themes for the entire force of about 400 models. Im using the Secret Weapon Blasted Wetland bases so Im using water effects and taking some time to do. NOW BOTH of these armies are playable showcase armies (not only a TT standard but a little better) and I also am wanting to paint more models with my Airbrush so I dont want to mess them up. Ok well here is a recap of the Red Scorpions and Catachans. and why its going to take a while...<br />
<br />
Red Scorpions:<br />
Im doing the Angstrom Incident Camo Scheme and using Dragon Forge Designs "Urban Rubble" bases.<br />

Im using the Forge World MK4 armors and will be painted to a pretty good standard. I would say its what I would paint as a company Champion level, Not a centerpiece but better than a high tabletop. This is an Infantry heavy army with very few vehicles.<br />
<br />
Catachans<br />
The Catachans are all on Wetland bases from Secret Weapon and are painted in the Standard "GW" Green with Red bandanas.<br />

Im using Standard GW Catachan IG plastics I put together and Sprayed them OD camo Green. These will be primarily painted with an airbrush and detailed with a brush. they will receive an "oil color wash" for their main shading and to add a :grimy" and "dirty" vibe. The big deal with them is the sheer number and the Water bases.<br />
<br />
Now this brings me to where I am using Airbrushes for my minis.... How am I going to get practice and not mess up my good minis?? How do I solve this dilemma??? I paint the Space marine army I have in my closet!!! LMAO!! Yep I have an Old "Garbage Army" of marines that are just a collection of several different colors and builds that I have picked up on Ebay and such from time to time. there are "White Scars" painted like Garbage, "Black Templars" that have been painted pretty craptastic, a smattering of test colors and a handful of Just plain plastic.. These will get a dark blue spraypaint job and will be done mostly with an airbrush. Im choosing the "Dark Hunters" Chapter as the scheme because its Easy to paint, and its Dark and will easily cover any colors not removed in the Stripping. I am looking to a buddy to do some custom Shoulderpads for me and I will cast them up to make the paint go faster (its raised details and will not be freehand!!) Here is what they will look like:<br />

Im thinking I will use Either the "Desecrated Lands" range from Dragonforge that are sculpted by the talented Mathieu Fontaine OR the "Lost Empires" range also from Dragonforge. Im leaning toward the "Desecrated Lands" though....;) Im using the following List of Models to make an actual list.<br />
<br />
6 Speeders<br />
20 Bikes<br />
4 attack bikes<br />
1 Chaplain on bike<br />
10 assault marines<br />
20 terminators<br />
95 power armored marines<br />
6 rhino<br />
Again they need some stripping and such that I will start on tomm but tis is what Im going to be working on so I can play some games this edition....LOL<br />
<br />
And as for my projects I have been working on I have been doing some progress. Im working on the bases that I have been doing and making more masters also. I hope to get another bottle of Silicone sometime soon so I can make more molds for bases and hope to have these as a viable product sometime soon. I also got my Truescale Terminator models from Three Stage Studios. It took some time to get but Talking with the guy I think him and I can possibly come together in the future and make some magic.

Hey Everyone, This has been one Heck of a month.... I had some personal stuff come up and that is working itself out a bit, But I also have been real busy doing stuff. yea STUFF!!! I am currently rearranging my house to accommodate a dedicated workspace for myself to actually do work in with no moving about and having things moved on me. While that is going on Im still doing the off commission or so finishing up some painting things for the Local club and doing my personal projects. More on that later though.</div>
<div>
One of the things that is taking a bit of time is actually Very good!! Im back in touch with my Old Modeling pals The Terran Guard. We were the Mods and Admins of a LONG abandoned Forum Called 40Kterra. While its always nice to link up with old buddies, we are actually looking to possibly get a Hobby forum started up again and show off some projects. The terran Guard had some real talent as far as modelers and collectors as well as some great painters. I hope this actually gets back into the swing and we make it a go as I would not only love to see my buddies doing stuff again BUT would like the input and push from pale to get my stuff together. We shall see though. But we can Hope huh?? lol</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
NOW lets talk about what I have been up to. First off was the promise of bases. I have 2 sets complete, the PP Lava/Icewater and the PP trenchboards. While I set them up for casting I pulled out my Silicone for making molds and discovered that it was "not ideal" to say the least....</div>

As you can see the "liquid" is no longer liquid and has gelled.... I allowed it to Freeze and did not take care of it properly (I left it in my storage for winter!!) and I lost about $300 in Silicone. DAMN..... Well a Quick call to John Greer and more was on the way with a special note to me saying NOT to freeze it, and the shelf life is only good for 60 days..... I aint even Mad.... Had it coming. LMAO!! gotta love a company with a sense of humor.</div>
<div>
Anyway Here is the update on how things are going for the other bases:</div>
<div>
Lava style: PP complete WH sculpts started</div>
<div>
Trenchboard style: PP complete WH sculpts started</div>
<div>
Cracking mud/parched earth style: ordered sculpting medium to begin. awaiting delivery</div>
<div>
Puddle/hazard puddles style: Sculpts started on Both sets</div>
<div>
Cobblestone style: groundwork laid out and sculpts to begin Likely with the Parched earth.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Well as I touched on earlier casting was delayed. I currently have the 2 sets mounted up for pour and will pour very soon. I need about 3-5 hours to tend to the casting as Im using vacuum and pressure to make the molds and must keep them pressurized for the entire time the molds cure. So Im just waiting on time, as my silicone shipment arrived a few days ago. Molds of the bases as well as a personal project or two of mine are the first things to be cast up and more pics when I got something to report. Here is a couple of snap shots of the bases and some of the MKI molds:</div>

I have been also pretty busy with terrain project or two with the Local Club. Im currently revamping some of the City terrain they have to make it more playable and nicer, and built a bridge set for the Rivers another member built last year. Im kinda happy with it as its bases off of Civil war Earthworks and can be used for several different games from fantasy to even futuristic on an ag world... Heres some pics:</div>

Also last time I mentioned Busts. Well I'll give a sneak peek at whats going on here. I Bought a "Totally NOT Commissar Gaunt" bust on Ebay and when it arrived I was Less than happy. The resin was Rubbish and I actually was a little POed about it so I contacted the seller, who ACTUALLY was the sculptor. He was Very Helpful and sympathetic to my situation.... And I commissioned another bust by him. He IS very talented but Casting is NOT his strong suit as we both agreed..... Here is what I was supposed to get:</div>

SO what we have here is a LOW QUALITY Polyester resin cast of a model that SHOULD have been cast with rigid casting urethane. Not really a big deal I guess but its not the right type of tool for the job. Matt was a sport about it though and I am in the process now of filling and preparing the original cast I have for a mold to make a true Urethane cast from so I can paint it up. I have my work cut out for me....</div>

As you can see I have drilled a hole for a dowel to be placed into the parts so I have a handle for working. You ALSO notice HUGE GAPING air holes and miscast parts.... I like to call this the Finecast effect.... LOL. I will place the dowels in the holes and give it a fine spray of Grey Primer to help me see the spots that need work as the translucent resin is hard to determine detail. Anyway... I have a lot of work and have only started o it So stay tuned and we will make headway on it soon. Oh did I mention another Bust commission???</div>

<br />
This is the project interest post.... there was just too much to put into one post so I had to break it up.<br />
<br />
First up KICKSTARTER...<br />
Ok well I am new to this Kickstarter fad.... but it seems a cool way to raise money. Im watching some of them Like <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dreamforge-games/something-wicked-this-way-comes-crusader-plastic-m?ref=live" target="_blank">Dreamforge Games</a>, <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1513061270/reaper-miniatures-bones-an-evolution-of-gaming-min/posts/298782" target="_blank">Second chance Reaper Bones</a>. and <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bombshellminis/bombshell-babes" target="_blank">Bombshell Babes</a>... I wish I had more money to do it though. I could see how this could empty my Wallet VERY FAST....lol. You can search for different projects and even projects local to you. Check them out sometime!!<br />
<br />
Second up.... METALHEAD MINIS....<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimszzjbV0mvbX5Iwi-6Qg_oNXDNNKJoF4L6L7AHebnMKHd0K7rJd6-09jjXWdC7p0TZcNS4cED-ILYTQWWR_tyoOnmqjFOr7eSHdr5sSGn0yXl-xYFvZao4NyOun9z86C2U5WzpRF8X1BT/s1600/mhmlogo5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="114" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimszzjbV0mvbX5Iwi-6Qg_oNXDNNKJoF4L6L7AHebnMKHd0K7rJd6-09jjXWdC7p0TZcNS4cED-ILYTQWWR_tyoOnmqjFOr7eSHdr5sSGn0yXl-xYFvZao4NyOun9z86C2U5WzpRF8X1BT/s320/mhmlogo5.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Metalhead Minis is a company that is owned by my good friend the AWESOME Lyn Stahl. I touched on it in my last post but her <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/lynstahlartist/home" target="_blank">website</a> has some of her commission paints and other award winning minis. I am not sure how her commission works but feel free to contact her if your in need of some awesome minis. Anyway I was talking with her while at gencon and doing some catching up and I mentioned that I was doing some Resin casting and other projects and she asked to get some of my bases for some of HER projects!!! Well I returned home and my Masters were kinda not worthy so I am making several new Base sets for this and will have some if anyone is wanting. I will elaborate later. But to wrap this up Lyn is helping me take my painting to the highest level I can so i can compete in the painting comp next year at gencon. How awesome is it to have a Award winning painter who is also one of the coolest chicks you know help you with painting projects???? I think its pretty damn cool....;) Heres a video from Reapercon this year on youtube about Lyn..<br />

<br />
<br />
And finally Munkey Joes upcoming projects.....<br />
As I mentioned Im doing some Bases. I play Warmachine and GW games (40k and Fantasy) so my base lines will be compatible with those systems. While I will not be making millions of these bases if anyone is interested in them Shoot me an email and Im sure I could get enough for you to do an army. Im not going to compete with AWESOME companies like Secret Weapon or Dragonforge but these will be little one off projects for some people to have custom bases for their armies. My line will have the following type of Bases:<br />
Lava style<br />
Trenchboard style<br />
Cracking mud/parched earth style<br />
Puddle/hazard puddles style<br />
Cobblestone style<br />
If your interested keep a eye on the blog and I will post pictures of them as i make my masters and cast. If your interested in a special set I have not listed Contact me and I will try to help you develop something cool.<br />
<br />
Im also doing some terrain, specifically WW2 looking 15mm and 28 mm. This is in infant stages but if you have done some or are interested in some hit me up. Im interested in hearing from people who use these scales or are familiar with Flames of war terrain and Dust warfare terrain.<br />
<br />
Finally Im working on some painting and such. I am wrapping up some of my commissions and will be starting some new projects soon....I have some vehicles and war engines on my plate now but look for some busts and other projects in the near future......<br />
<br />
Well thats about it, so until next time Serve the Emperor well......<br />

I am ALIVE!!!! PART 1Hey everyone!! I am FINALLY caught up from Gencon and can tell the story. August was extremely busy for me but I will try to catch everyone up.<br />
<br />
First things First.....GENCON!!!<br />
Well Gencon was an AMAZING 4 days and this year was very successful for me. My crew and I drove from Here (Frederick MD) all the way to Indianapolis and we spent a whirlwind 4 days before driving back. While there I had an open schedule so i could hang out with Friends and acquaintances I never get to see. While there I was able to talk and hang with some of my Hobby Heroes Like Painter Tom Schladel, Secret Weapons Justin McCoy, Several Lone Wolf Developers, and My good friends Rudi, Val, and Lyn. We had a ton of fun and was always doing something. This year had less swag as I had expected But overall it was fun. Since I had a open schedule I linked up with my friend and pro Painter Lyn Stahl and we worked at the MHE paint and take table for a few hours. I actually LOVE working there as I like helping new hobbyists learn new skills. While working Lyn told me about several of her new projects and what she has been doing for the past year..... Stop by and check her stuff out!! <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/lynstahlartist/" target="_blank">Lyn Stahl- Metalhead minis</a><br />
<br />
Second up is my Finished projects and current wargame projects....<br />
I finished a terrain piece for my local FLGS that has been sitting all broken and neglected for about a year now. I took it home and put it back together and repainted it. it was a peice that was purchased on ebay and was cast from plaster out of Hirst Arts molds. it looked nice but was put together with hotglue..... Really. so it just fell to pieces once it was used. I superglued all the joints and reinforced every brick with superglue by flowing glue into the cracks..... 12 tubes of waterthin glue later it was stable..... LOL after then I primed it with Rust colored primer so it would have some warmth of color and started airbrush. I added some warmer colors to add interest to the tables (cityfight terrain usually suffers from the GREYS..... no other colors) Anyway Here is some pics of the Chapel:<br />

We are ALL excited but I guess I am a little more than excited as I cannot sleep and am posting about it at 4 AM EST the day I have to drive 8+ hours to get there....LOL Oh well you can Sleep when your dead right??<br />
<br />
Gencon is one of those special times when I can meet up with Old friends I only see once a year and its my ONE major trip I take yearly. Its always nice to go and this year I am not really planning alot of activities so I can be real fluid and actually chill VS going to one of the many many activities...no schedule Just float around and see what I can get into!!<br />
<br />
One of the MAJOR things im looking forward to is the LE Gencon only Models that Privateer press is releasing this time... One os Circle and One is Khador.... BOTH of my fave Armies and I plan to add them to my forces. Heres some pics!!<br />

Arent those Just DEAD SEXY??<br />
<br />
Also I plan to meet with some of the Gaming big names Like Justin From Secret Weapon minis, Jeff from Dragon forge, the Privateer press crew (my buddy Linrandir, who lives about 30 mins from me but I only see every so often!!! have to go to IN to see him again!!) And MAYBE Tom Schladel and Joe Orteza of golden Deamon fame. I also Hope to see Jen Hailey and Lyn Stahl again as last time I was so rushed i did not get a chance to actually catch up.<br />
<br />
ANYWAY I ramble.... but to get on track again one of the Oddest things I look forward to this year (and to tie Gencon with a 40K blog!!) is the appearance of Games Workshop in the dealer room.... GW has been really snooty over the past..... 45 years (LOL) and they are making their FIRST official show at Gencon.

Secret weapon and DragonforgeOK well I am not the first to review these companies but I recently made an order and thought I would share my experience....<br />
<br />
First off Is Jeff from <a href="http://dragonforge.com/index.html" target="_blank">Dragon Forge</a>. I ordered the <a href="http://dragonforge.com/Painting%20service/for%20sale/base_sets/sci-fi/urban_rubble.htm" target="_blank">Urban Rubble Wasteland</a> Set from Him. I had my Usual Great experience with him and as always I will order again from him in the future. I have been dealing with Jeff for a couple of years now and have NEVER been disappointed. This set will be my bases for my Red Scorpion marine force I am building. I am painting them (or will be!!) in the Angstrom Incident Pursuit Squads Camo and these will match the industrial rubble wasteland imagery. Here are some pics for this set:<br />

And Secondly is Justin from Secret Weapon. I ordered the <a href="http://www.secretweaponminiatures.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=79_30_59&products_id=240" target="_blank">Blasted Wetlands</a> "all your base" set for my Catachans. This was my first order with Justin but I was treated like a long time customer and had a very good experience. Secret Weapon has a great selection and I plan to order more of Justins products. I got this set as I wanted something different for my Catachans as the bases I had for them was not really what I was wanting. These are well sculpted and interesting and what I like most id the ability to make the "unique" despite being all the same. I make them unique by the additions to them like water and brush/weeds. Very cool. Anyway Here is some examples of Justins bases:<br />
