It would be worth your while to hop onto their website Pink Champagne Boutique and see what they have.  Happy shopping!

Feeling A Little Blue

I found this toy dragon at my local Walmart.  He looked at me like one of those puppies at a shelter.  I had to take him home.  For less than 2 bucks, why not?

He was orange and purple.  Not the greatest color combo.  I got a vision in my head of what he should look like and went with it.

Behold the little critter with its makeover.  Dark blue with lighter blue on the underside and under the wings.  Some Cobalt blue dry brushing and he was mostly done.  I painted the talons, nails, and horns gray and then gave them a black wash.  After they dried, I went in with some light gray highlights.  Finished the mouth up with deep red and off white for the teeth.  Added some lime green eyes and it was complete.

I like the look.  I hope you do too.  Thanks for checking in.  More good stuff to come soon!

Keep On Truckin' (Tanking Too!!)

I found this little gem at the Goodwill the other day.  It was too good to pass up.  Three Humvees and a tank for 5 bucks...great deal.  I think they will scale fine with most of the stuff in my collection.  I plan on customizing them and doing some repainting.  I don't know 100% right now exactly what I want to do with them.  I'm sure in the end they will turn out just fine.   

I got about 200 projects or so before I might get to them.  We'll just have to see when the whim to get them (or one of them) done strikes me.  Stay tuned to this very blog to see what happens.  Have a great week and keep on truckin'!

That's a Bargain

I was at my local Dollar Tree checking out the toy section for anything I might be able to use/modify for my miniature wargaming hobby (sickness) and struck gold.  The new wave of Final Faction figures, vehicles, and accessories is out and they had a huge assortment of it.  I grabbed 4 of the Arrow ATV with 2 armor and weapons packs  (to be converted into Ork Waaaagh Trukks and Imperial Desert Vehicles), a pack of the Kharn Crawlers (2 in a pack). and the P-131 Mech with accessory pack.  Each items was $1.25.  For around 9 bucks that's a lot of stuff.  I'm looking forward to digging into these items and seeing what I can come up with.  Pics to follow at some point down the road.
