Nice tips, Fila. Yeah, sometimes when applying a wash, I will just brush it on and leave it and others, I will brush it on and then remove all but what resides in the cracks or recessed areas with a paper towel or tissue.

I finished today a custom base for a new custom figure. This time I used again wood and also a shaft sealing. The grass is from "NOCH" which I glued on with a woog glue/water mix. All in all a nice little base for my next custom which I will post in the next days.

This is something that I tried last Thursday in my lunch break with UG NX4. I know it is a bit useless but maybe you can use it for something:

DC-17 M SNIPER RIFLE ATTACHMENT

Here is my custom siper attachment for the RC DC-17m blaster.
Basic weapon was of course a DC-17 blaster. The barrel is made of wire, a cotton bud and a small piece of plastic. I also used some parts from an droid blaster on the side of the weapon. The sight(s) is made of wire and  clear plastic.

Where's Hasbro??  Looks spot-on from here.  Wish they'd done that with the two squads.  But hey - Yours is likely far better than what they'd produce!

every package from Austria to the UK up to 1kg is about 13,50€.
The smaller stands are for free only the shipping and the price for the bigger stands (like the republic style base or the sandwolve base) is 3€+shipping.
of course paypal only and advance payment

but for the first two bases I sent to you (Zulu and Sandwolves) I only take the shipping money 13,50€, the bases are for free mate
