Recently I've been experimenting with a few of the techniques that the Privateer Press painting staff talk about in their recent books.

Lately I've been neglecting my painting table - cheating on my models with a different craftform. I put down the pewter in exchange for styrofoam and traded in my paint for some spackle. With a little advice from Ulf of Dice-Speak and Game Fusion Studio, I've made an initial foray into the realm ...
