Weekend in Arizona, in August…

Weekend in Arizona, in August… A group of us went to Phoenix last week for the IPMS Nationals 2018.

You’re […] Source: GameraBaenre’s Blog

Upgrading the air compressor

Upgrading the air compressor Coming into some extra spare cash, I decided to upgrade my air compressor. Was there something wrong with my old compressor? Nope. It is still running. I only had one repair issue done about 10 years ago when the auto shutoff fuse blew. After that issue, I picked up a 10 gallon tank and configured […] Source: GameraBaenre’s Blog

Grim Reaper Part 2

Grim Reaper Part 2 Last time we left off, I was cleaning up the last bits of the kit with the scythe and the clear pieces. I have no idea why some of these pieces are clear such as the tassels since they’re going to be painted solid colors. I can understand the hair being clear, some translucent painting […] Source: GameraBaenre’s Blog
