GW Air brings back FW AirBrush line, are they the same?

I have only tested a handful of colors and I can say that with the exception of one, it appears to be a match across the line.  I tested new paints against my remaining paint stocks from years ago, the one color difference you see below I will explain in that photo.  All paints were given three coats per sample.

Chemos Purple seems like a perfect match...

Painting some scatter terrain from Sarrisa Precision

I picked up a 6 part kit of Sarrisa Precisions destroyed SciFi Base set a week ago and it is really amazing stuff.  The kits build and paint super quick.  (Note: the game mat and desert rock terrain seen here are from GameMat.Eu) The kit from Sarrisa for all 6 pieces was $70 US.  Pretty good deal for what you get.

Gloss Varnish for modelers, Pledge changes a logo, but keeps the formula the same

For years modelers have known about Future Floor polish as a cheap, effective and durable product for gloss clear coating models.  Several years ago the Future logo and formula was bought by Pledge.  Well, recently Pledge "Floor Care Finish" has started disappearing from store shelves.  There are people selling it on eBay at down right goofy prices, but it appears this was just a rebranding effort by Pledge.

Hobby Hack for Space Marine Shoulder Pads

I have been using corks for painting sub-assemblies for a long time, but when you have 14 reavers to get through thats a lot of corks for bits and bobs.  I have seen people paint pads by taping them to a flat surface but I really wanted the ability to work with a lot of pads assembly line style and access every angle.  A good solution dawned on me the other day.  Old plastic sprue!  With some quick clipper work and a little super glue to add a handle/stand I had what I was looking for in about 10 minutes.

Zone Mortalis, Death Ray Designs Part 2 Painting

So here is my scheme test pieces.  Nothing to fancy, because when you have more than 100 parts to paint, you better do something that looks good but can be done quickly assembly line style.  Thats how I went here.

Finally a Zone Mortalis set that works, Thanks Death Ray Designs, Part 1 Construction

50 cents worth of PVC and never spill 7 dollars of ink again.

Was listening to one of my Fav Podcasts today and heard one of the guys lament spilling a pot of GW ink.  This is a Hobby Hack I learned from a buddy.  50 cent PVC joint available at most DIY stores.  Never spill again.  Also, the brush protector on your brushes, they are great at holding pots open on inks.  Pass this along.
