I think I'm enjoying the car so much because its my first rusty vehicle, and I was experimenting using the rust effect, washes, highlights etc as a result :-)Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-9428392887744621932017-01-24T01:13:26.155-08:002017-01-24T01:13:26.155-08:00Good job on nightmare and nice progress on the arm...Good job on nightmare and nice progress on the armoured car.

Then when its dried its rusty. Amazing stuff.

I don't think Nightmare gets the attention such an interesting villain deserves; especially one who once had to abduct Spider-Man in order to fight the Hulk after foolishly trying to imprison the gamma-giant within his domain - great story.<br /><br />Obviously I thoroughly recommend the "Mig Production" rust.

Once again, I must admit to knowing nothing at all about Nightmare. My first thought when I saw him was - "that's a cool looking vampire!" Looking at him again, I think he's make an excellent Zombie Master in the "Judge Dredd Miniatures Game" - a less powerful version of Sabbat.<br /><br />The rusting effect on Max's vehicle is outstanding. I think I'll be ordering some of the Mig Production rust paints very soon.<br /><br />Finally, your Tweak is coming along nicely. I'll be posting my own Tweak very soon.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.com
