First Batch

Here are some from my very first batch.
A few needles, a couple Howdys and a big pencil.
They were painted with the testors model paint (enamel). It was tough to control the spray n that stuff and I got a few runs. They are coated with etex. That gold over yellow Howdy got a bizaar scale effect in the etex over the gold paint. Not sure what happenned as they were all covered at the same time and put on a spinner.

Nice job! Those needles . . . They will definitely give you a workout this season!

My goal in life is to be the kind of man my dog thinks I am.
