I'm starting an ent army for MESBG, but after buying a couple of boxes of generic ents, I'm quite disappointed in the amount of custom bits, especially faces. Any ideas/suggestions to make or sculpt treemen faces?

>>98193705Don't sticks rot?
>>98193717Oh I'm sorry I didn't realize we were going for full archival and reversible miniature painting methods.
Need a mid tone for my white armor. Should I go with trooper white by two thin coats, or game color off white? Going to be airbrushing, so performance there does matter.
>>98193735Or I could go straight in with white ink and rely on the transparency to create a gradient, but then I’d have to varnish afterwards.
>>98193735Trooper white broke my airbrush don't use it
>>98193237Good to have you back.
>>98193735Dunno about the game color one but trooper white is still very, well, white. Maybe consider doing something a step darker like bright ivory if you want warmth or a bright grey-blue if you want it colder.

>>98193796Thank you anon. I'm happy to have time to paint and post in my beloved general again, some irl stuff kept me pretty busy lately.
Squigger is done, few things im not 100% happy with but im really happy with how he looks overall.
started a dreadboy this kit sure does have some gigantic moldlines
>>98194029Soul, well done.
what can I do to paint a shiny black like star wars death troopers or snake's sneaking suitwithout just painting it flat black and putting a gloss coat over it
>>98194125paint it black and put an ultra-gloss coat over it.
>>98194125Look up nmm techniques. Things that are shiny or reflective have high contrast.
I need an ink for painting blue space marine armor over a zenithal. Prussian blue, phtalo blue green shade, or phtalo blue red shade?
I've heard people talk about putting clear over ink so it doesn't rub off, but what would happen if you mixed the ink into the clear? would it make a transparent color?
