I found some Simple Green at BJ's, big ol bucket of the stuff. I poured some in a bowl and plunked an oldstyle plastic khorne berserker in it. It's been sitting there for a week now, I've brushed one or two layers of paint off it but that seems as far as it'll go, how long should it be sitting there for it to really loosen up tough paint?

Devlan Mud posted:Siimple green also has a tough time taking the first coat of primer off of plastic I've noticed. Ahhhh alright, as I said before I scrubbed some off but not all would come off. The layer that won't come off is solid black, so I think it's the prime layer, which would explain why it's so difficult to get off. I managed to get the rest off, though. Thanks!

A Dodge Viper is just a toy for men in a midlife crisis or who have small penises. Calling Warhams toys nothing to be ashamed of.

Working up the 'skin' on the head to Menoth White Highlight atm.

If it's not something to do with air leaks, it has to be something with the metal somehow. They're probably churning that poo poo out so fast for stuff like the Skaven special characters that they probably are like "alright take'em out five minutes earlier than usual from now on" so they can make more(money).

Drag the knife along the mold line. Except for stuff like rope or hair, it should easily, quickly shave it off. If it's on hair, you're hosed.

PaintVagrant posted:this is probably a good idea, but the thought of reading the entire thread to find all the good posts is pretty uh. Yeah. I would do it myself, but I'm not very knowledgeable in the ways of painting. I wouldn't know what was worth referencing or not. Also, because of this thread and the Warhammer thread, I have begun painting again. To see if I have improved my skills at all, I tested my dessicated abilities on an old clanrat model, now to become a Skavenslave since I hate the ridiculous way they look and the proportions, but buying the newer Skaven clanrats to use as slaves is absolutely insane. It would be a dollar per point just about, which is LUDICROUS. Anyways, I took some tips from this and the other thread, read a couple tutorials, and this is how it turned out. I think my favorite part is the rust.   The fur didn't turn out quite the way I would have liked, first I painted the whole thing foundation brown, then scorched drybrush, then badab black. I think the BB was too watery when I used it and forgot to shake it up after so long so it came out kinda weird. I did foundation flesh + gryphonne sepia and then drybrushed elf flesh on the skin which probably wasn't a good idea in hindsight, and the rust was tin bitz -> bestial brown -> blazing orange, worked fantastically. All in all, even with the fuckups, I am very, very pleased with how it turned out, infinitely better than my old Vermin Lord, one of the only still painted figures from when I first started:  And the last figure I painted, over two years ago:  So I think I've improved a lot since then. Thanks for the tips, you guys, this thread is really fantastic. The only complaint is these particular skaven have MASSIVE mold lines, so huge that you cannot even remove them without damaging the model. Terrible, terrible sculpts. But they were cheap! Now, on to the rest of Lord Commissar's (former) army!.....

This is a very simple and perfect guide to rust, it's what I used for the Skavenslave, although I changed the shades to Bestial Brown and Blazing Orange.

I know someone in the thread posted a great guide on how to paint that oxidized copper look on things, which works perfectly for Skaven metalwork, but I don't have a link to it anymore. Does anyone have either it or another good one?
