  • THE MASTER HAS SPOKEN!!!!!! Steve that is FREEKING AWESOME Bro!!!!! Have you ever tried towels? I get free rags / towels at work and have seen them used as thatched roofs and they look SWEET! However the cycle and pan cleaner pads look FANTASTIC as well!!!!! Its a privilage to see you working your magic Bro THANK YOU!!!!!:)

  • I've seen the towel method (they use a plush terry cloth type towel/rag). It does look pretty good. I had forgot about that method.

    You get your computer woes fixed?

    I'll have to do another vid on thatch later and try the fun fur and the terry cloth methods.

  • Ya for now (crossing fingers) The clay etching was a new one on me and as long as you don't have to ship it is WAY stronger! Hey Dales last vid is about a site that they hang out and chat on Stumpy thumper gave me the link as well as Dale has it in the side bar. I'm going to try to hook up tommow afternoon evening ish Maybe we can hook up:) I'd love to hear about your latest project!!! Well off to work till 3am :( Take care Buddy!!!

  • 3am! fu...uuhh

    Blog TV, I'll have to re-schedule my show there too. (it has been Tues@2) or at 5 in your case - But then I totally forgot today, nyuk nyuk.

  • So glad your posting stuff again. Hope you can get the wiki running it was a great idea shame not everyone can play nice. The cleaning pads look great i'll have to try that myself. Have you ever tried fake fur? For gaming terrain it's a really quick method.

  • @InTheCoalShed I have tried using it for grasses but not for thatching. Excellent idea.

    I'll have to give it a go.

see all

  • Man I gota catch one of them shows!!!! Your WAY better than David Letterman or Conan Obrian:)!!!!! By the way loved the army of lazer pointers post. Unfortunatly that sums up me too:)! Too many projects started- hardly ANY finished! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!:)

  • Awesome as always. Also going to have to give that "fake fur" idea a try..some glue mixed into it and trimming done to an old stuffed animal cut up or something and it should give a great effect too.
