Does liquitex varnish work through an airbrush? I'm looking at that brand in particular since I'd be able to buy it locally rather than online.

Yeah they work fine, the only thing worth mentioning is the liquitex matte is almost too matte and will really dull a paintjob. The satin is much better suited for miniature use

I clean my airbrush with windex. Works fantastic. I squirt water in to get all the main gunk out first and dump it into a cup. Then I run a thumb of Windex through, backwashing it a few times. Then run a thumb of pure water after. My brushes are as clean as clean can be. Even after varnish. For Liquitex matte varnish I do about 1/3 water. Mine isn't very matte though. It honestly probably depends on the temp/smoothness of area/etc. People say they used gloss before matte to get a super matte finish. I've never tried this yet. I also use windex to strip models as well. The stuff is a catch all remove everything. Philthy fucked around with this message at 21:13 on Aug 22, 2018 |

ijyt posted:Spray a gloss coat over the affected areas. Cheers. I actually went back with a much more cautious coat of the GW munitorum varnish on a single model first just to see if it would help without going out to find a gloss spray. It actually worked really well. I think I just put way too much on the first coat because I was spraying in the dark like a moron (apartment rooftop just has really low lights). They're still a tiny bit clouded but tons better than before. Also more notable idiocy in that I first tried painting an affected model with an unlabelled 'gloss coat' which I now suspect was actually acrylic medium. That chap is now rocking what is probably a permanent dusty/weathered, yet glossy, look

Skarsnik posted:re: airbrush cleaning, I have a bottle of the vellejo stuff and then a bottle of just plain water. 90% of flushing everything out can just be done with the water (also between colours) and then save the pricy stuff for the end to get it properly clean For flushing your brush with water, get yourself a couple of these medical wash bottles. https://www.amazon.com/Economy-Bottle-Squeeze-Medical-Tattoo/dp/B00WTHLR2M

Thanks for answering the question about varnish. I ran some through at 30PSI this morning, will see what it's like when I get home from work. What was the reason why people ditched Fallout Hobbies for transfers? And who are the people the thread uses instead? I've got somebody at my club who's looking to buy from them...

They "accidentally" used what was very obviously the SS version of the Deaths-head on a model then got lovely when called on it. Or they were lovely about some Manhammer Pimp Chapter bullshit. Can't remember which was which (both being well sufficient reasons).

Fallout Hobbies just do stencils and transfers I thought? The totenkopf was some commission studio like FLG or something.

We really need a poo poo-list. Also, such a list would give the chuds something to clutch pearls and swoon onto fainting couches over. Not that they have a problem finding such swoon-overable objects.

Don't worry about it. It was a bunch of stupid poo poo - some people got bent out of shape about a dumb model when they should have just shaken their collective heads and moved on and the model and its creator would have been resigned to the scrap heap of history. Instead, it became a Big Thing, and put the stupid model and creator in the limelight and brought out the idiot in both sides. The worst part is that it wasn't even particularly offensive (unlike the IG/Eldar rape diorama,) it was just juvenile and dumb.

Groetgaffel posted:Also nothing to do with Fallout Hobbies. No, the totenkopf knight was entirely on FLG. Fallout hobbies liked the manhammer post on their instagram account, got called out on it, and then started arguing and defending their ability to like it. And yes both the manhammer diorama itself and the guy behind it are incredibly tasteless and problematic, don't try to normalize it or say it should just be ignored instead of called out.

IIRC it's literally just gold Dorn with a stupid hat on a throne and the Dark Eldar slaves around him. E: Brother Groetgaffel might be right: they might be from the slaves kit that dakka dakka made?

Cobbled together some alien jungle terrain from Reaper Bones models to go on my killteam board. I put it on upside down 50mm bases, so it will slot into the holes for trees on citadel woods bases for easy swaps.

I took real pictures of my titan. I'll start on basing it in the next few days as poo poo I ordered starts showing up.  Also painted a terminator librarian, but its comparatively boring and I didn't enjoy painting it anywhere near as much, just wanted to clear it out of my queue of built but unpainted poo poo.

I haven't spray painted the Primaris Marines yey, mainly because we've had smokey air here, and I don't know how that would affect it.Groetgaffel posted:E: ^^^^Too late! Well, I guess now I know that site exists...  However based on that description, now I'm imaging some kind of gender-swap where it's a Sister of Battle decked out in some sort of super-ornamental armor while accompanied by Pillar Custodes.  Speaking of Custodes...  I was going through 1d4chan, and it was pointed out how in this illustration (full version here) that the Custodes are in dark silver and have different headpieces. Was there ever an official miniature made based on these, or has anyone ever tried to make something similar to it? Booley posted:I took real pictures of my titan.
