I used up all my sick days, so I'm calling in dead.

I was freaked out at first, and had NO CLUE what I was doing. I felt like an idiot asking what I thought were obvious questions, but I had no clue. There were some nice people on here who helped me out. Now I've had several kits done and several out. It's addicting.

He got some work from Bowen for a prototype, so it took him even longer to do my Archangel, but it looks great so far!

Yeah, I went big for Archangel, but his style and ideas fit in exactly for what I had in mind for Archangel. Vince is very metallic, and this statue is in a big way. I've worked with him, J. and Dan Perez now. They all work differently but they do good stuff.

I love the hippy X-Men, I don't normally buy single issues but I picked up the new one because I simply looooove the cover with Emma in Bellbottoms, Warren looking like all SEXY and Cyclops looking like a member of Sgt.Peppers lonely hearts club.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Most of the kits we've been making have ZERO prep work ... just assemble and paint ... I had no seam lines what so ever to clean on my Sasquatch.

I'm too much of a perfectionist in my own work. When I do other arts & crafts stuff I just see my flaws when I'm done. We have a stained glass mirror I did in my living room and every time I look at it I just see a few of the things I messed up on. No one else really notices it and people seem to really like it, but there it is. I want to take it up kit painting someday, but I'm holding off.

I liked the hippy outfit Emma has on in that issue.
