Now in conjunction with this there will be a new video up soon as well as another blogpost about how I sprue and mold using my vacuum system.

Hey Crew!! I am getting Emails and PMs from lots of people wanting some painting done. While I will do some painting from time to time I dont take on many painting commissions, and mostly concentrate the ones I DO take as one offs or Special projects like the Superheavy for Blood and Skulls and Rhino for Help for Heroes. I DO like getting requests though and to help everyone else out Here is a list of Painter I like to Send people to because they are all personal friends of mine and do top quality work.

Quick update on the Vinyl stencil project and Card stencils... Card stencils are good. Im designing more shapes for this product. Vinyl stencils are "PERFECT" with the exception they are not as reusable as I had hoped. OK not reusable hardly at all unless your Painstakingly careful..... SO these may be sold as 5 packs once the designs are a go. That will mean you buy a "set" and you will receive 5 of the stencil patterns in Vinyl for your use.

no Pricing as yet BUT I do plan to keep it under the $10 mark for 5 sets of stencils. Some pics will be inbound soon as I make some product and beta test some of my patterns!!
