Yeah, I have done that on past models as well. I find the amount of spray I want to use for an undercoat is often thinner than the amount of spray...
Maybe I'm just a slow worker, but I find its quicker to use these texture paints than PVA and sand. Not that sand is super time consuming, but by...
Yeah if you don't find PVA+sand time consuming then its probably not worth getting these texture paints. The texture paints will be as good as...
Yeah, the green slime river wasn't terribly quick :P I forgot how many coats of paint it takes to get a solid finish of Scorpion Green. That river...
After playing around with the Astrogranite on a few models I think I've figured out a pretty good and fast way of using it. Just apply it with a...
Haven't bought any of the dry paints as of yet. Ended up getting myself the grey texture paint (Astrogranite). The trick seems to be laying it on...
Yeah I think I'm getting the hang of them now. Need to make sure the palette is clean otherwise the metallic softens then mixes with the paint...
I just noticed that Aqueous Hobby Colour acts as a paint stripper :jawdrop: I was using it again and decided to wipe it off my palette instead...
Here's a pretty comprehensive review of the new paints... http://taleofpainters.blogspot.com.au/2012/04/review-citadel-paint-range.html
Yeah I was tempted by the texture paints, oddly enough for my orCs ;) (have around 1600pts of painted Orcs and Goblins which aren't based). I...
Yeah I have some of those old original metal Necrons as well. Never put together an army either, just had 10 or so warriors, a few scarabs and 2...
Really? I think it looks like lava ;) Looking good though, I love the Saurus coming out of the water.
Yeah, my main problem is that the paint doesn't appear to be drying properly. I painted that 'cron around 36 hours ago and the paint on my palette...
I didn't buy any dry paints, but I did play with them in the store. I hope GW fixed their pots so they don't dry out over time, otherwise those...
Found somewhere selling some coloured metallics, not the Testors ones though. There's a prototype of the Necrons in my painting log......
Hey guys, Here's a prototype Necron I was talking about painting in the other thread about the new GW paints. I used acrylic paints called...
I'm almost done actually. Had a few free days from work so managed to work on the Carnifex some more, just needs a final highlight on the armour...
Looking good. I don't think things necessarily HAVE to contrast to look good, as long as they don't clash awkwardly, which I don't think the red...
Got started on my Tyranids this week, shouldn't be too hard to get 200pts from here, painted 1 Zoanthrope yesterday and am about half way through...
That's what it seemed like to me, though maybe I just wasn't applying it quite as thickly. I wasn't using my own brushes or miniatures. Was...
