I am thrilled to be able to say that my 1966 Oldsmobile 442 got a two part, step-by-step write-up in Figure Painter Magazine issues 16-17.

More to come!

When Secret Weapon Miniatures sponsors a "Best Weathering" category, I get to weather the trophies. We cast them in resin, and then I paint them, pigment them, and put them in a socket... which is why we don't sponsor a lot of "Best Weathering" categories!






This time, since I had two of them to make, I decided to make them distinctly different - and capture the process on video.


A quick review of videos also made me realize that I haven't done a live broadcast in more than a year... and while I don't know that I'll go back to the live format, I certainly do hope to start getting back to videos here shortly.

This was the test broadcast for the monthly "ask misterjustin" segment that I will be doing with Secret Weapon Miniatures. We've made a lot of technical improvements in advance of the second episode -- and you'll find me live on the first Monday of every month at 4:00 PM Pacific (GMT-8) answering questions from the viewers.

You can also submit questions in advance -- which is especially useful for those of you on the other side of the planet that might miss the live broadcast -- via misterjustin AT secretweaponminiatures.

I won't be able to get to every question, every month but I'll certainly give it my best go!

I will also embed the live stream on this blog for those of you that can join us.

As I was sitting here working on the tracks for the StuG III Ausf. B kit it occurred to me that someone out there might like to know the method I use to keep the tracks from getting everywhere. Enjoy.

 Several people have asked me how I created the steel plating texture for my StuG III Ausf. B and so I put together this quick and easy video tutorial.

I am also working with Secret Weapon Miniatures to bring back the "ask misterjustin" series as a monthly video tutorial segment -- so stay tuned for more on that front... and get your questions ready! Ideally I will be answering viewer submissions every month as I seem to be much better about producing tutorials when I know that someone actually wants to see them. Go figure, right?
