drat, son, those TAGs.

Is your bike bounty hunter on a commercial base or a custom thing, and if it's the former, where can I find one?

I made it! It's super easy, I am glad it evidently shows off well.

The base is just cork board torn selectively so that it has rough and craggy edges, then glued onto a standard circular base. I glued standard basing sand into the bottom of the crack.

To paint it: Vallejo Cold Grey on the entire base then wash the whole thing black. Drybrush grey, grey+white, then pure white.

Secret Weapon pigment: Dark Earth was stippled heavily into the cracks and along the edges to make them look dirty. It was spread selectively on top of the "road" to add some ambient grime. That's it!

This is better than the studio paint job. This is nuts. The blue/white blending is top notch. You've managed some good depth on calves despite the hexes. All the gray and black are highlighted well. The base is great. This is a job very well done.

Thanks! I don't think I'm rivaling Giraldez yet but some day, maybe.
