 Decided to paint five more of these guys. In total it took 75 minutes, so still about 15 minutes per model. I might have been able to save a minute or two with premixed paints or using the wet palette for the metallics, but I'm satisfied with that.

This is *insane* for 15 mins per model. I would spend 5+ hours to get work to this level. Please enlighten us with your method.

Yeah I'd assume that someone painting batches of similar models in an assembly line, time-optimized way has given up the claim to lofty artistry, but hey, it's important to take 5 times as much to paint your mooks when your ideals are at stake. It's about ethics in miniature speedpainting, you know.

I've heard not to spray prime your little guys when it's humid outside, so what is an acceptable humidity? I don't think it's going to be less than 65% or so here for a long time.

On one hand it's valid to want to not use contrast paints... but it is equally valid to want to use them. It's only painting, why bother getting mad about how others do it. Just enjoy the differences in execution and results.

I don't think it's going to be less than 65% or so here for a long time. I've sprayed at 65+% before. Went fine for me. Don't spray too thick and give it time to dry. I usually try to spray when there's a breeze.

Not sure if they're looking for a painter specialising in using contrast paints. Even if they probably should just to try to dispel people misconceptions about them. Even if they're really good at including them for pretty much everything these days, to my slight detriment.

Any good guides for working with led's? 3d printing so in theory I can make cavities wherevers needed, and can print translucent if I go out of my way to buy clear resin.

Some people still consider using an airbrush to be cheating, so I fully expect this attitude towards contrasts to stick around forever. E: if I use contrasts in an airbrush, is that like multiplying two negatives and getting a positive? FeculentWizardTits fucked around with this message at 16:58 on May 26, 2021 |

I don't think it's going to be less than 65% or so here for a long time. I’ve had a number of bad spraycan experiences in the past, so I get a little crazy about weather conditions when I prime. My personal choice is looking for times when humidity is between 40-60% and temp is above 50 but below 80. I’m sure boatloads of people have gotten perfect priming jobs outside of these ideal conditions, as I mentioned initially, I’m overly cautious, but following the above has always worked for me since my initial bad experiences.

AndyElusive posted:Hell yeah. This owns. I was thinking of using that too. I really should have just had a test model to try and see how the different paints look on transparent resin. Maybe I'll print out another table and give it a try, that thing did not come out easily haha.

So just finished up this guy here. I think it came out pretty nicely, maybe another wash of seraphim sepia over the golds, still undecided on that.

Finished another Tripod last night!  It has probably the most 'intense' base I've ever done at 6mm scale.   Here's a glamor shot of the two I've finished so far. Three more to go!

punishedkissinger posted:who the gently caress gets this salty over acrylic paints for plastic toys It's especially funny because using contrast paints that way is almost identical to just using translucent inks, and nobody gets all bent out of shape about those. Learning how to streamline your process and get the result you want in the most efficient way is a skill all on its own - I guarantee anyone complaining about this stuff is using "shortcuts" of some kind too.
