The only silver colour I have is Vallejo Metal Grey which I think might be too dark? Could I mix some white with it or will that ruin the metallicyness???

Finding it harder to get a worn looking silver statue effect  Washes arent really showing up, and I seem to end up with either really bright shiny silver or dark gunmetal Those two were boltgun metal spray, with the lightest metal I got dry brushed on top Was thinking maybe spraying black and dry brushing metal might look better?

krushgroove posted:I'm a modeller, not a list builder, so the fact that people are unimpressed by the display boards is mind-boggling to me. I do wonder if most of these comments about the dioramas come from players who refuse to play against unpainted armies. The dioramas are pretty cool IMO Im 'ughing' at the 'would pay to get in to see them' In sculpting news; I am about to try and sculpt a reverse mermaid, and possibly a scrunt.

Would this brush be ok for dry brushing? Or is it too big?  It is a soft makeup brush for ladies

I used their grey surface primer (73601) and brushed it on neat with no problems very reliable when I had no garden to spray in

Does anyone have any tips for making your own DIY texture paints? Like the mud stuff GW sells? I figure I have paint, sand and pva glue; I could probably just mix it up myself right???

w00tmonger posted:yeah I think black rim is the solution. These still look tasty as gently caress. Mottle the color a little bit maybe to make it less consistent? I'm probably gonna drybrush a lighter colour to create the effect of the raised mud drying, while the lower mud is still wet from puddles etc Also some patches of grass etc

I really want a brownie now I have removed some of the large rocks, which have created indentations which I have gently filled with a little pva glue I'm hoping when the glue dries it will look like puddles of water What colour should I paint the large rocks? Black/slate???
