All it takes is tools and technique. Talent, also, but that only makes learning the first two things easier.

I came across his stuff the other day... Made me stab my minds eye with a q-tip for starting to thing my stuff was looking good.

Are there any members that have the molds? I'll one day get some but was wanting peoples opinion about them.

I don't have all the 1.5" square molds that he does, but I do have the same exact molds for their 1" square counterparts. I built an entire modular board out of the bricks, way on back, but it was not well made (it was literally the first time I used HA stuff). This guy's stuff is really great because he took and used a miter saw/box, and various other tools, to customize each brick. He's clearly working with A-game experience, so he's going to have all the right tools and all the right places to use them.

Your stuff is looking good. Make a side-by-side of your first painting attempts and your most recent. In the short amount of time you've been painting, you've made great strides.

Uh oh... Don't stroke the ego or even come close to doing so... Bad things'll happen like making me think I actually can paint. I've improved more from reading and thinking about what I've read than actually painting. I'll not consider what I do 'good' by any stretch of the word for some time because of talented folks like Seb, and what-his-face-whose-name-escapes-me RemyT and a few others I've seen that are really good. However if I stroll through some bad paint jobs I know I can hold my own as far as tabletop quality is concerned. More painting supplies, and proper ones at that, will let me continue to improve.

Edit: Bamphboy got me Remy's name. I have asked Tasoe quite a few things and he always gives me good advice and constructive criticism.

RemyT. tasoe. Sjeng. Goblin-King. ampersand. Those names never escape me when it comes to consulting how to paint what.
But still I might have forgot someone.
