Yeah, I sat a seminar with Beauchamp like 15-16 years ago at Alcove.
I learned a lot then, now I hope to pick his brain a bit for blending, etc.

Aside from the Ruskie Spammers, did anyone go to Michigan Toy Soldier Co. ?

How was it?

[SoylentBob]

Matt and i were there. It wasnt bad at all. It was more of a beginners course though. He did a bunch of question/answer, which was cool, and I am going to see if i can use the technique he mentioned when painting black.

They also filmed it for posting on YouTube, so you can go there and see it when they bring it up.
