Friends I have a q: has anyone had experience using the citadel texture paints (or similar) in combination? Like stirland mud with the crackle stuff over it or vice versa?

Love the base and skin tone. It might just be me, it the shading on the front of her stomach looks a little too gray/dark, and kind of looks like a snail trail of hair. (When I zoomed in it looked better, so it might just be my eyes getting confused)

How did you do the little waterfalls? Was it just export like the guildball bases?

The skin is definitely more on the grey side than I hoped for. Next time I hope I can get into more pinks.

The main form and rocks were done with layered cork then covered and sanded with green stuff. For the waterfalls, I cut up a smooth part of a 20oz soda bottle. I used woodland scenics water effects as glue for the archs then brushed on more water effects to create the texture. Then dry brushed white on the ridges. Think I went a bit heavy on the dry brushing.

The guildball bases were done using a 2 part epoxy that is better suited for deeper pours. If you're interested in doing something similar, maybe I'll do a tutorial on hem when I get back to working on them.

Thanks for the feedback.

Tutorials about modelling/painting are always welcome!
O god I am such a nerd

Could covering the greyer part of the shading with a pale pink glaze work? To keep it dark but just a little pinker?

Good luck! I wonder how it looks under different lighting. I think the nmm sword, smoothness of skin and pretty base will work for you

My first painted mini!

Very little highlighting due to just having the colors in the space marine learn to paint set. And there's so much to improve on, like better thinning to start so I can get a nicer texture.

Also, I thinned with a gloss medium which was a mistake because everything is too loving shiny.

Getting more paints tomorrow and pumped to try again!

Just going back a few pages and didn't see you get a reply- I think because you replied to yourself. Most important things you've already addressed (thin your pants!) and starting out, maybe just thin with water. Apart from that, all advice given to Munchables is good stuff (I've watched those Duncan vids for the first time now and am really digging them/kicking myself for not "getting" some basic stuff till now).

Also if it�s a lil bit of paint or just in the nooks and crannies, use a blade to remove (just scrape) or loosen for second bath

Go light at first though - the plastic may have softened from the simple green

I made the crotch darker. Even with the tiny modesty cover it comes with, it was still very shiney and drew the eye too much o.o

I don�t know the size of the knight, but these ones are about 2 inches so that should be fine
