I can't argue with that statement. Stupid derail. Does anyone know a site that keeps handy painting guides for various things? The only one that comes to mind is Brushthralls.

Also, I drybrushed up a base tonight. It's incredible what a little corkboard and sand can look like with some black primer and a little paint. I'll take a crappy cel phone picture in a moment. EDIT: Wasn't kidding about the crappiness

It's possible; I have a hard-on for washes over metals to get various effects that look awesome for  -levels of work. Sorry that I didn't get to help you out more. Also, thank you for the complement; the model is currently sitting in Simple Green so I can adjust the color scheme. I tell you, I'm in love with the idea of this whole test-model thing.Out of curiosity, what technique were you thinking of? I could always use advice, after all.

Possibly stupid question, is there a reason the "Foundation Black" paint that comes in this set doesn't appear anywhere in the individual product line?

Finished up my Khador battlegroup this evening.   Not too happy with Sorcha's face, and the melee weapons, but they're good enough to play with. I went for a darker color for the Jacks because I had some burgundy Krylon fusion which made priming them (and my 5 shocktroopers which I haven't finished yet) a cinch. Saved a lot of stress on basecoating. So. many. drat. rivets. Verdugo fucked around with this message at 06:45 on Jan 19, 2012 |

At first I thought you said "Word of Blanche mechs" I still think it fits. Maybe a bit more beige and sketchiness.

Kinda like Mormons running the telco industry. They cracked the shits when their dream of a unified humanity was sundered and so they declared a jihad on pretty much everyone.

Theres a chance I might do commission work again, Im sort of stuck in commission limbo at the moment because a customer went awol during the process of painting an army for him and I dont know what to do about it. But yeah maybe one day soon I might start taking some small commissions here and there. Characters and fun poo poo though, no goddamned armies  But yeah, free time has been made, which is pretty sweet. Havent had it in quite some time.

That owns bones. Did you pick up the Finecast or is that the metal one? I've always wanted to paint it. My only complaint is that the wings should have some icky rot on them too, but it still looks great.

Simple newbie question: How do I prevent paint from chipping off of metal minis? Should I give them a thin clear coat of some varnish or something?
