>>98535187Very good green stuffed boobers.Are you following a greenstuff sculpting tutorial by chance and you can link it please?What magnets do you anons use for your models’ bases? Specific links help too so I don’t accidentally buy magnets that might as well be scraps of metal that don’t have magnetic ability.
>>98537847>What magnets do you anons use for your models’ baseswhat does this mean
>>98537847>https://e-shop.magsy.es/i use 5x2 n52, plastic models can use lower grade ones
Some progress on my generic cultists.
Tried out the acrylic markers I got recently. Doing the edges with a marker tip was much easier than a brush. I just dropped some Nuln oil on the metal, and a sepia wash on the skulls.
>>98538217How can one be a generic cultist? Don't you have to have fanatical worship for something? Are they fanaticaly generic?
>>98538309Black robes and ritual knives aren't generic enough for you?They can be hired goons for one of my wizards, or NPC opponents, that and "black goes with everything" make them "generic".Ignore the slaanesh symbol on the one guys plank, I was just seeing how the woodgrain detail would fuck with freehanding on it.
>try out a more blue tone metallic & fuck around with yellow placement>accidentally make looted Space WolvesGonna try using an oil wash for the first time and see how it turns out
>>98538620>Gonna try using an oil wash for the first time and see how it turns outBless. Try pinwash first before you just drown the mini in it.
>>98538644Are they difficult to use?I've seen a few videos/guides - some where they drown the mini in it - wait 1 hour & then sponge it off and some where they just pin wash itWas planning to drown/sponge off the armour and pin wash the rest but don't wanna fuck it up
>>98538680no, they are one of the most forgiving techniques you can do, if you don't like the end result just get some mineral spirits and wipe it all off like nothing happenedyou will get some staining if you dont gloss coat it beforehand tho
>>98538680>Are they difficult to use?Not at all, much easier than acrylics. >basecoat>gloss or satin varnish>apply oil washes by the method you preferThat's it. If you dislike anything, you can use white spirit (or similar solvents, like sansodor/turpentine/etc.) to just wipe it awayIf you are very careful with the cleanup (and not using AP paints), you might even skip the varnish, though expect the cleanup to be more difficult and the paints will stain at least a little bit. This can be also used deliberately, as filters. Drowning the mini in it is fine, and it actually makes a lot of sense with say Nurgle stuff, orcs, or grimderp painting styles. But pinwashing is not only very clean, but also quite relaxing technique. It's good to test out both. Just be careful if you are using some premade enamels like Streaking Grime instead of oil paints, they behave a bit differently, though the basics apply. Also, you can use oil paints to shade stuff. Just apply a tiny little dot of undilluted paint (where the shadow or highlight is supposed to be), and then smoosh it around with a dry clean brush. It creates very nice, airbrush-like gradients and transitions.
Okay, I guess now it's just missing some grass. I do have some tufts but I'm not really sure about them, would prefer actual static grass. Anyone have some experience with making their own dispensers with some electric fly trap? I guess the ones available at shop have around 2.5 kV, not sure if that would be enough.
>>98538732>>98538704Ok thanks for the tips AnonsI don't actually own any gloss coat so trying without - I was planning to stain it, wipe away, have the highlight be the current basecoat & then finish with some drybrush highlights
what is the difference between this, contrast paint, and a regular paint with low opacity?
>horde army players painting a mini for 4 hours only to realize they paint the same mini 80 more times

Started to paint a street sign for my diorama.
>>98538920Ist mir zu lokal, Brudi.
>>98538928Ist fürn Golden Demon.
>>98538960Danke, wird ein Teil vom Geländestück, auf dem der Baneblade hier stehen wird. Mal gucken ob ich die Crew + Mutanten drumherum noch fertig bekomme.
>>98538918when would you use one or the other?
I don't get Miniac, he's always complaining about not finishing armies and projects but still spends hours on every mini doing ridiculously complex schemes with airbrush, oils, technical paints etc that end up looking really average at best. He could get the same results much faster if he ditched the techniques, oils and spirits or at least used oils right.
>>98539115That's fantastic, but what about you take that shittuber cancer elsewhere.
>>98538217A bit more progress.
>>98537972It means I want good strong magnets that are properly sized and not too strong that they mess up miniature formations by attracting or repelling models.I was tired when making that post.>>98538038Thanks!I’ll still appreciate for more magnet links.Doesn’t matter what country if I can find a similarity between them all it can narrow down what things to look for when shopping for good deals from stores in my country’s shops.
I have Ak flow aid and thinner for airbrushing.What’s the ratio of their usages with pro acryl black and white primer, please?>>98538841Literally me.I’ll try batch painting miniatures while listening to podcasts or music. If I can get a good Adblock on my iToddler 6s phone.>>98538985Is that a tank you printed from an stl?It looks good and you did good.Can you share the stl please if it is a printed model?
>>98539293Usually 80-20 thinner-flow improver is "standard" ratio. I heard of people using reverse (as in - more flow improver than thinner) for primers but I would start with standard first.
>>98539293Thanks anon, but it's basically a normal Baneblade chassis with two main battle cannons. Both are connected to the turret via lots of milliput.
I know it's hard to see but there's actually a tank behind the headless marine. Still hate painting vehicles but the pattern I hated doing less.
>>98539054your try them, you look at the process and the result and you decide you like one more than the other for whatever you are doingpainting isn't math, you do whatever you like however you feel comfortable
>>98539293>primerusually none, or whatever the bottle says if it does
>>98538920I believe that's Zentrum, not Centrum.
>>98539530That looks like they just splashed buckets of paint on their tank. And yes, i am perfectly aware that there were WW2 tanks with excactly such a camo scheme.
>>98539668In my experience the primer clogged a bit so a little bit of thinner is needed. Or I need to adjust the psi if that works.Or water I’m not sure.
>>98539715Yeah, but it is written like that in Latinum which is basically high gothic in 40k. Please excuse my autism.
>>98539724Thanks, that's what I was going for.
Trying to get better at painting skin tones. Any feedback is welcome.
>>98539661but what do they do differently?
>>98539530will you shade everything with a wash or something? Very pale/washed out. Not necessarily a bad thing, just unusual.
>>98539948You did pretty good.
>>98539957Try them and find out, get some models you don't care about and experiment. Then you have 100% proven evidence of your own thought and conclusions based on your own evidence. No point running around asking retards on the internet 22 questions before trying anything new. I believe you can do it anon. I know, you are autistic, I still believe you can overcome your autism and experiment, therefore answering many of your own questions, and therefore soothing some of your anxieties and dare I say, increasing your confidence in your own capabilities.
>>98535187holy fucking kino... imagine GW designers absolutely seething that they aren't elderly manfaced negroid bulldykes
>>98540002Although, did you forget to paint the jewel on the far left dagger?
>>98539974do you think you're being clever like this? I asked a simple fucking question and all you can reply with is "lol just try it yourself." if you don't have anything useful to say don't bother replaying. this isn't r*ddit where you can farm gold or whatever by replying to everything.
>>98539948skin too orange. also ugly sculpt.
>>98540022Let me repeat myself : try them yourself dumb autistic retard.
Test scheme for Terradon Riders, planning to do a dark purple leopard-like pattern on the wing membranes.
>>98540022Now go back to r*ddit and deposit all your r*dd*tgold to me, u/yourmumscunt
>>98539948pretty good on the skin and eyes, especially the face, mold lines and mess on the rest of the model though
>>98540022Because that's the only reasonable reply, anon. There are some basic characteristics to each paint, but ultimately you gotta try them out yourself. It's not just paints, but also specific colors, too. Learning how to use your tools (and mastering them) is imo half of the fun with this hobby.
>>98540022lol just try it yourself
>>98539960yeah there's still an insurmountable amount of work to do. honestly just thrilled to get some base colours down on it. I'll probably brighten up the splotches on the top (where the big ass turret doesn't cover), multiple washes and streaking on the sides, maybe some chips and damage if I'm feeling brave.definitely looking drab and washed out, and doesn't look intentional enough without some saturated stuff for contrast. tyranid body parts in behemoth colours will hopefully help a bit.
>>98539948I think your transitions are good color palette wise, I would just say to improve you should consider working on thinning consistently. I actually paint skin with glazes because I don't like leaving brushstrokes.
>>98540042>It's not a question of where he grips it. It's a simple question of weight ratios. A 20 kilo Terradon can not carry a 50 kilo orb of gold!
>>98538809>thisDesigned to cover evenly>contrast paint Designed to pool>regular paint with low opacityphotoshop multiply layer at 100% opacity vs normal layer at low opacity
>>98540055so if someone asks how ak compares to citadel are you going to say "just try both and see"? there have been examples in recent threads where someone has asked about contrast paint and gotten a reasonable explanation of what it does. I asked a simple question that could be given a simple answer but this dipshit thinks he's being smart with a non answer.
>>98540151thank you for the serious reply. I'm not sure I get the difference in use though. people do the slapchop meme with contrasts, but would even coverage not be desirable over preshading, especially for things like marines where contrast pooling looks like shit? I never hear anyone talk about clear colors for painting warhammers. on the other hand when I look at people doing preshading with tanks and planes I'm fairly sure they are just using ordinary paints.basically I see people using clear colors for things like skin on garage kits or making candy metallics, and I see people using contrast on miniatures, but I don't really know what the venn diagram for usage is even though they seem to have a lot of similarity.
>>98539957>>98538918
>>98540215Brush vs airbrush painting, user tolerance to solvents, what people have available to them and what they're familiar with. Different strokes for different folks. Contrast does dry matter while tamiya clears are very glossy. Plenty of people do horus heresy candy red thousand sons with tamiya clear red fwiw.
>>98540278so if you are painting a marine with zenithal preshading would a clear color work better than contrast?
>>98540309If you're airbrushing I expect it to be slightly better, yeah.
>>98540309Depends on how detailed your preshade is. Contrast gets in the crevices, if your preshade doesn't properly contrast those, your clear color model will look pretty flat.
Some progress. Soon I'm going to regret gluing the fucking head on this one before painting it.
>>98540700It will never cease to amuse me how much a pair of fat tits elevate the sculpts here.
>>98540711back in the 80's and 90's every artist understood that every depiction of a woman could be improved by giving her huge knockers.
>>98539948It's good, you just need to do more glazing between your colors to get smoother transitions.
Working on this Gorkanaut. I think I'm just about done with the armor, for now at least. I'll see how I feel after working on some of the little details scattered around.
>>98540800that one shoota is looking a bit non-concentric
Getting close to done with these.
>>98540022what a fucking retard
Oh boy, time to watch two hours of military history videos to see if my made up camo scheme for my sci fi mechs makes enough sense!
Got the shading done tonight on the agressors and bladeguard.
>>98541216Oh yeah?
>>98541233yeah, i've been doing an absolute terrible job of getting any painting done this month
>>98541372Post them though
As close as I'm going to get it.
>>98541391nice but I still think one of them needs a titty mole
>>98541400I'll put one on this one, since it's been cancer to paint.
I hate batch paintingI hate batch paintingI hate batch paintingI hate batch painting
another rough print so I gave it a approx 1 hour speedpaint instead of tryingbrush for today>11 year old citadel medium layer synthetic that had hairs going in every directionevery brush I own needs to get thrown out they all suckpaints for today>dosghit citadel pots were all dried out so I was forced to use folk art paints again
>>98541421Then stop doing it.
Finished the first dude in my spectre killteam. Aside from him looking like hes covered in sand I think he turned out alright. I haven't done a detailed base before and I think it looks okay.
>>98541606>unfortunate lad stepped in a bit of sprue gatepoor soul... happens to the best of us though.
>>98539948She cute
Shield is finished. It took me much longer than I would have liked.
>>98541813Love the shading/highlights of that shield, it's beautiful.Maybe it's the pic, but the lenses are not popping out, the color looks too similar to the ornaments of her backpack for me.
>>98541606This looks fucking fantastic. Love the camo
>>98541869Thanks. The backpack isn't done just yet, I just have the shading applied on the metal bits so far. But you are right with the lenses not popping enough. I'm fine with how they look now but when I paint the Superior next I'm going to try and make the red pop more. I may even need to go from an orange to a yellow. In hindsight I should have maybe gone with green.>>98541891You can kill the alien, mutant, and heretic from a distance but you miss out on the satisfaction of seeing them die up close. In all seriousness though, I love the nonsensical bits of 40k. Picrel still lives rent free in my head.
>>98541912>I should have maybe gone with greenYeah, I thought about that too. Green is the perfect complement to purple, but it's also a very classic color scheme. An orange/yellow with red highlights around the lenses (like a lava effect) is a good idea and would pop a lot since purple is a cool color.
>>98541970I bit the bullet and went back to redo the lenses. The lava colour scheme definitely helps it pop out more and helps the osl read better. I'm very happy with it. Thank you for pointing it out in your previous post because otherwise I would have just settled for what I had.
>>98542094I think you're better off with a cool color for the lenses. Orange doesn't contrast much with the gold.
another stretch of batch painting, once these ratfucks are done i'll have 40 of them and can finally move on to other stuff lel

wip seems to slow down a lot in august doesnt it
>>98538985Nice weathering>>98541606That's fucking sick. Where's the French helmet from (other than France)?Painted the first of my Mechanicus gunners. Annoyingly I've found a new yellow I like more than the old one (the fella on the right). Do they look too different?
>>98544605love these lil dudes.
>>98542094Man that's fucking grainy, did you use primer from a spray can?
>>98544605The head is from tiny legend, they have a bunch of different gasmask heads. I got a set of 5 of the adrian helmets with the grenadier masks and 3 of these field caps for the squad leader and radioman. The next dude I'm painting is the rocket launcher dude so Ill post a photo of him when I'm done.
>>98544744>tiny legendCan recommend. It's kinda funny how hard his Steel Legion designs mogg the living fuck out of GW concepts.
>>98541210In case you haven't seen it yet:https://www.camopedia.org/index.php/Main_Page
>>98544687Yeah, it sucks but I don't own an airbrush.
>>98544820Is that why my minis look sandy? I use brush on primer
>>98544839I don't know. I hardly ever used a brush on primer. I use the Army Painter brand of primer and have struggled to get smooth coats with it. I also varnish all my models after and found it helps smooth out the grainy look.
>>98544852>I use the Army Painter brand of primerIf it's rattle can, just throw it into a garbage bin, easily the worst rattle cans in existence. If it's for airbrush, just thin more, throw it into garbage bin, and get VMS or Vallejo.
>>98545026>easily the worst rattle cans in existenceskill issue, they've been my best experience between citadel, monument hobbies, colourforge and rustoleum
>>98544820you can get smooth coverage from rattlecans, you are either doing it wrong or using a shit product
>>98545026It is a rattle can.>>98545045How do you get the best results? Humidity in my area is a bitch to combat.
I've only used army painter's dragon red spray primer but have never had any grain issues with them or any other brand (white surface primers excepted). Warm the can before use, shake well (but I've never done multiple minutes as some insist on) and don't spray in direct sunlight. Quick light passes. Spray one model at a time held in your hand so you can twist it to get every angle quickly and easily, not the box-full method where you're going to have mist and overspray potentially ruining a batch at a time.It feels extremely straightforward to me but there must be tricks to it given how many people struggle. I've only ever had bad results when I've dropped a model/it's fallen off the handle.
>>98545045>the entire internet acknowledges how abysmally dogshit AP cans are>le werks on my machinecg I guess
>>98541400
>use tamiya ultra fine grey primer that's like £10 per 180ml can>it's literally perfect but I can only get maybe two squads per canfuck
>>98545082It's army painter. I shake the can for 1-2mins and apply in quick bursts roughly a foot away.
>>98545103I think a big problem is that people spray from too far away. you should be spraying from about 8" away from the part, but I bet a lot of people have their shit on the floor and are standing up while spraying. that or they are afraid of putting it on too heavy and think spraying from further away will make it thinner.
>>98545127this is the best primer I've ever used. £8 for 500ml on amazon right now.>>98545148yep, I'd say I spray from 6-8" away.
What primer works on the go? I travel a lot so all my painting is done from tackle box.
Buying some chinese casted resin warhammers...some of the weapons are kinda bent. Does hot water really fix them back into position/
i want to get myself a set of inks and i was thinking about ak interactive inks, are they any good? or maybe u recommend other range like vallejo inks or smthing?
>>98545424AK inks are good. I have four and they are all quite nice. Liquitex is also pretty good, but it's a bit more fragile and dries lot glossier than AK.
My Thunderbelly Ogor Tyrant is finished
>>98545417sometimes. I've had some stuff spring back straight when heated, others that won't stay where I put them. can't hurt to try.

>>98545500thank you anonim excited because i got things i want to paintso much to doso little time
>>98543248Im on a similar boat as you. I've got 98 dwarf infantry with spears and axe to paint. Am currently working on batch 2 of 8 and I'm both eager to paint whenever possible and ready to blow my brains out as i slog through the ugly phase.
What is the best way to paint clear cyan clothes?
>>98545644Paint the skin where the clothes would be most sheer, then glaze out to your cloth colour.
>>98545424Ak Inks and Liquitex.Love Fire Orange from AK.
>>98545395I use vallejo acrylic-polyeurethane brush-on, you have to go a little slow to avoid bubbles but it's very convenient when you can't or dont want to spray.
>>98545126Ruined.
>>98545479Looks alright, as far as ugly fat dudes can look alright.
>>98539715>every country is the samewhat?
Updating my deldar kabs from 8th when weapons were expensive. Now it's free dark lance central so I kitbahsed these 6 to have a proper 4 fully kitted out squads of ten. Currently doing base colors before drowning them in nuln oil.
>>98546492Wait, how many do you get per team now?
>>98546306Kill yourself
>>98546637I might as well now.
>>98538809if you have inks just add I tiny bit of thinner to matt medium and you have contrast paint aka a wash
>>98545424I've used daler rowny, liquitex and some other artists inks, they are all much of a muchness from proper brands, just don't buy GSW or some cheap crap, and expect one bottle to last the rest of your life
>>98545417Yeah just dip it in a cup of hot water for ten seconds, how was the sprue flashing? Sometimes mine is terrible other times a perfect cast, all over the place
>>98540145Maybe he strong
>>98546553Before it was 5 to 20 I believe. Now it's ten, and with a venom you can split them into two squads of 5.
>>98546910Did it change from that temporary datesheet they pooped out a while ago? I still haven't gotten my hands on a codex download.
>>98537820Portable fan or hair dryer, which one is better for making paint dry faster?
>>98547101Hair dryer. The heat evaporates moisture faster.
>>98547116Which one is safer though?
>>98547119The slower they dry the safer, so letting them air dry on their own is safest.
>Mixed a tiny bit of paint with a tiny bit of cheap craft retarder + water>Half a day later and the paint on the model still hasn't driedIs this normal?
>>98547020Still uses the tenth codex with a faction update thing off their website. I just printed all the codex stuff. Detailed the process on my hobby blog including the kitbash build. https://theredmagician.wordpress.com/
>>98547141Wait, I thought the new codex was out? I remember a bunch of review videos a while ago.
>>98541421>batchHold my beer..
>>98547154From what I understand it was basically the last one released for tenth. Rules work fine for 11th so far. Drukhari is always the same. Pilot them well and you're unstoppable. Make a single error too many and you're decimated.Managed to sneak in a bit more time and finish the base colors, wash em down, and even do up the bases. The. Highlighting forever!
>>98547249Right, that counts as the end of 10th.. yeah, we're always a glass canon and I like it that way.Nice bases.
I feel like when I bought this guy I had a real color scheme in mind but he sat for so long that all I can remember is "some kinda greens", though I can't say for sure that I didn't just want the female yuan yuan he was packaged with (who I also can't remember any color scheme plans for [and who got a nearly identical updated model between then and now anyway])
Any simple/obvious trick for doing some blood and guts? Not usually into that sort of thing, but I've chopped off a hormagaunt head and arm to stick on a base and it's going to look strange without some mess. Just some chopped up sprue and plastic glue? I think I saw something with mixing super + plastic glue recently?
This guy was actually pretty fun to paint, I’m pretty please with how he turned out. Face could always be better though
>>98547626Just the face? This whole thing is contrast slop.
>>98548011For a new painter, he at least kept everything within the lines.
>>98548011me when I use words I don't know the meanings of
>>98548016Milquetoast response… maybe a sardonic compliment even
>>98547101dryer is faster, but it can soften the plastic too and cause the paint to crack if it dries it too fast. It's acrylic paint. I just blow on it with my mouf as I paint. No big deal.>>98547514It works either way. I like the gun and the stripes.>>98547626Snow and skulls. It's a Merry Christmas! You even have some freehand on the knee. Good job.

>>98548170Who's the 32mm base minotaur? I like how retro it looks
I guess I made red desert too red - looks like Mars now. Funny enough, last year I did did proper red desert bases before but completely forgot how.
>>98548843Always take notes of your recipes my dude
Also, two "modern" bases. Huge hole on the left is for model connection piece, also one of pipes will directly touch "tactical box" it stands on.
Miniature prep. I snipped the pegs and glued this guy together. Where i snip the miniature from the sprue i used my knife to scrape away thegate stuff. What do you guys do to fix this? I have a metal file and it just scrapes and leaves scratches, would you guys be greenstuffing these bits and trying to make it look like the orks muscle? Surely you dont do this for every model..
>>98549448if you don't have expensive nippers cut the gate slightly away instead of trying to cut it flush, then carve the remainder off with your knifeuse fine grit sandpaper or the side of your xacto knife to scrape moldlines and gates smooth
>>98548833That's a 40mm base + It's a kitbash, want the STL?
>>98549473Thanks bud! I will get some fine grit paper to sand it down to see if it helps. I will try cutting further away next time!
Got some more work done on these guys. The pro acryl bright ivory seems to go on really thin. I did 3 layers on the cloak and cloth and it's still got a bit of bleed through of the turquoise underneath from when I airbrushed.
>>98549448To add, sometimes you can get very unlucky and have a bubble of air in the spot where the gate connects to the model, but usually if there's a hole it's because you fucked upThe good news is that filling a tiny little bubble hole is the easiest and best practise for filling larger gaps that you could ask for and so you should get used to filling them with your preferred method (CA+baking soda, plastic glue mixed with sprue, modelling putty, whatever)A couple of little 2 inch square pads of high grit sanding paper will last you several lifetimes of cleaning little bits up into nice smooth surfaces, too, and costs like 20p per sheet
>>98549754at my local grocery store you can pick up sanding sticks from the beauty section really cheap. they're low grit because they're designed for finger nails, but for a dollar they're good enough for plastic.
Batched out a bunch of flayed ones for tomorrow's WanG game, which apparently is getting postponed now so I rushed them for nothing. Oh well.
>>98549917To add to this make sure you check their grit.Usually you want to start with lowish grit to even things out and then a high grit of 1k+ to properly smooth it all out.Being nail stuff it might not have the required higher grit for proper smoothing.If you have some 10-15ish bucks to spare you might wanna consider stuff like this
I was nervous about painting black over shaded yellow, but it came out well I think! Now all thats left is the tabard, which I'm going to try a circuit board pattern on
And this is the third time I'm painting this beastmaster, hopefully this scheme works. Trying a noisemarine style of camouflage and stripes
>>98549958the ones i got are about ~300 grit for the fine side. a little low, but after primer and paint i don't think you need a mirror finish with really high grit.
>>98550030Made me smile , nice work anon
Is Morghast Bone just kinda shit? It's coming out so very thin, and can't seem to get any coverage. Also not super sure how much I like the idea of his arm being that bone color with the purple.
>>98550386Also why did this come out sideways of all things
>>98550393phone pic, 4chan deletes metadata so you need to crop the image to keep it from rotating
>>98550393I feel like this should be added to OP, the metadata thing
>>98550386>Is Morghast Bone just kinda shit?Yes. If you're asking about GW paints that's usually the honest answer. If you want a similar colour with good coverage try Two Thin Coats Sandstone. It's a notch or two darker and a bit glossy for my taste, but covers really well and dries nice and even.
Finished Witch #8
And I missed the red jewels again ofc
>>98550415I'll have to see if my LGS has Two Thin Coats. It was so thin, but anytime I tried using it without thinning it, it was glumpy as shit.
Finished up my archon conversion. I think half the time was just spent getting the bend and rotation of that right arm correct. Why is it always the case that when posing with blue tack you can get the model just perfect in one try then it takes hours to get it again with actual glue. Of course I also broke off both spikes right at the last minute and had to re-glue them on.Parts list:>Dark Eldar archon (legs, torso, cape, arms, blade)>Corsair pirates pointing hand>Eldar guardian right hand and sword hilt)>Reaver jetbike helmet>Fancy Splinter rifle from raider kit.Just need to figure out what to do with the base now.
>open paint tutorial >"using your airbrush. . . .">close>>98550488Beauty spot on the tit, nice.
treating myself to a bigger model that's currently mostly dryfitted, wanted to ask if it's a good idea to spray prime something while it's assembled, and then disassemble it for sub-assembly? or should i just use bluetack or whatever on the connection points
>>98550758fr its so annoying>today we are going to paint ultramarines in 20 minutes>I start by first airbrushing on…
>>98550758>>98550858stop being poor
Any of you lot got instagram and can tell me source for the arms? Or maybe recognize them and can give source? Please and thanks. https://www.instagram.com/p/DXWaVtPDN_p/?ig_mid=115E65CE-D4D5-4D9C-9D7E-245EA559F526&utm_source=igweb
>>98549721Why would I ask you what the model is if I didn't want to know what it is
>>98550866No
What's a good paint for that orange-brown color of autumn leavesIdeally one with better coverage than most oranges
>>98550915brown... with some orange mixed in.
>>98550982fuck off retard
>>98550988I'm being fucking serious, just try it, pick any brown you have and any orange you have, then add the orange into the brown a little at a time until you get where you want.It really is that easy.
>>98550995I'm not wasting time bottling a mix for an entire army when I can get it ready made retard
>>98550997if you could do that already you wouldn't be asking the question.
>>98550851I feel like that would just make it harder to prime right? Like if you are going to go to the effort to subassembly and mount all your parts why not just do it first?
>>98550915folk art 2902 Pueblo satin
>>98550851If you're worried about glue being able to hold the model together, you don't need to be unless you're using superglue. Plastic glue is in large part acetone which will melt the primer too.I would prime it separate for better primer coverage.

>>98548249Choose your waifu
>>98550866>stop being poorYou can get an airbrush setup for 10 Citadel rattle cans and after that, you can prime more for less money. It's just being smart.
>>98551253nigga created acrylic oil paints KEK
>>98551253Is it actually wet or just dried glossy in the recesses? If matte paint dries too slow or pools it can turn glossy.
>>98551310NTA butI might have to replace my air compressor. So what's a good reliable one I can get that will last a good few years with "heavily constant use" if that term makes sense. It probably won't be used that much but I just want to know.>Yang Wen Li imageYou reminded me of the Mr. Hobby LOGH licensed paints.I think the Brunhild has some metallic coloring in it.I'm hoping there is a good video that shows their true colors like Hyperion Green and Free Planets Alliance Battleship Green so I can hopefully color match them with an acrylic alternative. So far I think AK's aquatic turquoise is a close enough for Hyperion Green and Green Sky MIGHT be it for the Battleship green. There's a lot of green paints so I'll probably have trouble settling on one.But I might just eyeball it with the actual OVA scenes or from official kits that had colored plastic.The same goes for the perfect Empire ship grey. So many choices of grey paints.
>>98551362Actually wet, I can still clean it off with water
>>98551253>>98551362Oh god, I heated it up with a hair dryer, and it became even glossier. What the fuck is going on?
>>98551370I'm still using a shitty Fengda for now, so I won't really help you.The only thing I know is that Sparmax is usually considered as the premium/professional brand for compressors.
>>98551380Just get a matte varnish.
>>98551380We got another one, boys!
>>98551395Thank you!I'll see how long the current one I have takes until it breaks down.Maybe a perverse hobby form of the Bogdanoff meme will happen where the machine will magically just become immortal and never break on me when I want it to so I can buy a new one.And if I give up and just get a replacement that new compressor will die in a weak just to spite me.I'm open for more compressor recommendations.Quiet but very good ones are appreciated the most.

I want to vent out my frustration from trying to make DIY static grass applicator. I heard suggestions to use those electric traps for flies but maybe it worked before, certainly not now. Had some very cheap "lamp for flies" but checking actual voltage shows meesy 600V, electric traps have listed 1.5kV instead while typical flock applicator require around 6-8 kV for comfortable work (comfortable as in working from 3-4cm distance instead of almost touching). Checked shops for some HV generators but all I could find were "educational" sets for making arcs but those produce AC, not DC. Everything seems to be optimised for one and one purpose only, at expense of any alternative use (or those traps have reduced voltage now because "safely reasons" read "my dumb kid tried to touch the mesh while device was working").Meanwhile flock applicators from GSW or similar companies all cost 90-100€ or around that.
>>98551701
>>98552289
>>98552617you can make one for less than 20, look for ion generators, like this>https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005003149778724.htmlthat with an old router power brick or maybe even a phone charger with a pd board and some tubing or 3dprinted case
ngl bois, think I did one too many steps before applying an oil washFeel like I just look a dump on my miniEven after using mineral spirits to wipe some away, the really nice bright yellow I painted looks a bit muddy now
>>98552809>basecoat>satin/gloss varnish>oils>cleanupThere isn't much to fuck up here, anon.
How do I do bases? I fucked up my first box of minis and glued em down before I did any base stuff.I got some technical paint and some of those grass tufts; how do I go about putting it on?
>>98552710Wehrmacht Marines are awesome.
>>98552289Interesting. Wonder if another armour mark might work with the idea better if it weren't for the imposed constraint.
As someone with 0 skill in photoshop, is there an app or website I can use to test out colour schemes.
Has anyone here have a good techniques for contrast/glaze cyans?
>>98552895with texture paint just get your most fucked up brush and start putting it on. you don't have to be too careful with it.
>>98552895If the models are glued to the base, I take a clean brush, get it a bit wet, and dab the water around the perimeter of the parts that touch the base, then gently inch the texture paint up to that until the water carries the texture paint up to the edges.
>>98552987>>98552980I only follow the rule of cool
Test model for some Eldar models. Still need a name for their craftworldI didnt like how all the GW schemes paint the shoes the same color as the armor, I tried making mine look like boots. Not sure if it looks right though
>>98553393What did ya use for the purple? I like it a lot
If I want kind of blueish tone metallics like pic related is there a way to do that with metallic paint that still looks good?
>>98553520Attached the wrong pic lmao
>>98553520yes you'll just basically have to repeat the process of painting nmm but with metallic paints instead
>>98553460I used an airbrush, then edge highlighted, let me see if i can remember the exact recipe. I did the base paint like 2 weeks ago.Darkest is Vallejo game color royal purple, then hexed lichen, then model color purple, and then the lightest airbrushed color was mecha color purple(but i didnt like this, i thinking just lightening the model color purple with white would look better)Edge highlights were done with purple mixed with white>>98553522Even with the original pic I knew what you were asking lolIf you have an airbrush you can try underpainting to give dark areas a blue hue.
>>98552802I'm not very trusty towards Aliexpress. Maybe I could find some fly traps with 3.5 kV but that would be all. I see local equivalent of eBay having some "negative ion generators" but, as with everything Chinese, it's one big question mark in terms of specifications.
>>98553522Mix some blue inks into your metallic paints for shading, a la https://youtu.be/mWOWe9yh8Ks

Should I just take the biggest brush I have?
>>98552289>iron crossIf your LGS is anything like mine you will be immediately disqualified and called a nazi, a white supremacist and other buzzwords. The rainbow colored LQBTQ marine will win by default. I wish I was joking. My LGS is genuinely like that. That's why I stick to solo games nowadays.
>>98553907Consider using rattle cans. Or, if you think you are serious about the hobby, get an airbrush. Contrary to popular (meme) belief, getting airbrush early is a good idea.

I'm going to buy the Tyranid Ravener kill team soon to go with my exodites and deathwatch sets.I'm building a bunch of jungle themed eldar and ork terrain and going to play 4 player kill team games with my mates. Going to make bases for all the minis in similar jungle style too to make everything immersive.First time painting and buying figures in 14'ish years.I'm just trying to figure out which colour scheme I want the most and I'm torn between three. Mostly two, but really three.1: Zerg Hydralisk colour scheme (brown armour plates, purple armour, fluorescent green venom sacks etc) They're more or less Tyranids Hydralisks (they even dig tunnels and shit in the game). It would be an easy/fast paint job, would look cool and2: 3rd edition codex cover scheme. This is my favourite Tyranid colour scheme. It would be the most difficult and time consuming to paint, but I really like that look a lot. I had a handful of Tyranid units when I was a teenager just to paint them that way.3: Hive fleet Giger. I know it's a cliche doing xenomorph tyranids, but it's just cool. Green stuff over the eyes. I would use a blue'ish tint to the black and make the toxin sacks fluorescent green.It's probably the easiest of the bunch, but it looks cool. I'm leaning more towards something more colourful since the Deathwatch team have black armour.What do you anons think I should do? I actually think the zerg colour scheme would make them stand out the most from the other teams. So all four teams I have are very different.
>>98554017I meant purple skin for the zerg scheme. My bad.
>>98553979>>98553998If only you knew how bad things really are.Warhammer Essen in Germany. I don't mind name-calling, because they are genuinely everything wrong when you think of a dogshit LGS. I checked their Facebook page for 10, but sadly can't find the image I'm looking for, and I can't ve bothered to continue looking. I was instantly disqualified on the monthly "free mini of the month painting contest", because I used a Bolt Action decal. Then in the discord group they banded together to call me a white supremacist and a nazi. I am greek btw lmao. Genuine mental illness.
>click on a tank painting tutorial for inspo>first step: load up your air brush>click offim tired bros
>>98553927Really? I wasn’t sure what I could put, because I also wanted to have a Nazi flag behind the Marine. Maybe I can make it removable in case. I mean, it would look fucking great.

>>98548249I need the name of both the goons (are they monopose?) and the witch please>>98551072is that a gap in the shoulder pads?? would be insane ever for GW cheapstake standards
>>98554043I'm going to try the $15 rechargeable / cable free airbrush from Ali Express. I'm sure it sucks, but will be alright for terrain
>>98554075They work, but their pressure is shit and they usually just have high/low settings. It's good to learn on because you'll get the general idea behind an airbrush without risking breaking something expensive, and you'll appreciate even a cheap tank compressor in the future
>>98554095I'm sure it's shit. I saw a video where I guy tried it out and he said even the high pressure was just at the limit of using it for white because of the specs it makes. But $15 to use for ork terrain and shit like that? I'm getting one just to try it.I'm just amazed of all the tools, materials, resources and 3d printers you can get these days. I would have lost my mind if I had access to all the stuff people have now for minis.
>>98554095>>98554075>without risking breaking something expensiveIf you buy a good airbrush, you won't break it. If you buy a cheap chinkbrush, you'll break it, but it won't be expensive.Get a normal fucking airbrush.
>>98554062>Forever WarIncredibly based.
>>98552802the pic there is mine, i built it with an aliexpress transformer like the one i linked, very unlinkely you are going to get any better quality because everything is made in china
>>98554131I know, but I'd like to try a shitty cheap one first because I'm not sure I'll be needing one long term
>>98554150You've been bitching about it how many times now? I think it's pretty clear you will find use for it, anon. Not to mention, airbrush is unironically the most important tool for mini and model painting.
>>98554017use the zerg color scheme, call them hydralisks, and tell everyone gw stole tyranids from starcraft. see how many people you can get so angry they refuse to play with you.
>>98554157Doing two posts is bitching? relax man. I know what you're saying and I agree. I just don't think I'll be in it for the long haul, so I'm not going to spend a bunch of dosh on a proper airbrush right now
>every GW kit has ten gorillion THICC ASS connection points to every single part, even the little onesWhy are they doing this? Are they retarded?
>>98554173I dunno man, I'm sure one of the many GW-related generals would be delighted to answer though
>>98554163Haha I think I would piss myself off saying that. But I am leaning more towards the zerg scheme because it's easy and would stand out more compared to the other teams I'll be doing up.The heads on the Raveners don't look like they're the types with the cool red stripe down the side of their heads. If you look at the cover of the 3rd edition art, their heads like they'd fit the warriors where the red part is shaded below the head armour.
>>98554188Why yes, model building is certainly offtopic in /wip/.
>>98554131that's just not true. you drop a $15 airbrush off your desk and it's not a problem. you drop a $150 airbrush off your desk and it's a big problem.even cheap airbrushes you can't break with normal use.
>>98554231>you drop a $150 airbrush off your desk and it's a big problem.I dropped my Infinity off my desk about six times now. The worst damage is a little scratch on the body. Expensive airbrushes tend to have a very solid build quality and are engineered to outlast you. On the other hand, I broke my old BD 180 trigger by dropping it from roughly 8cm height.

Last update for today
Ok oil wash done - any feedback on this test scheme so far?The wash has done a really good job of tying the different metallic tones together but I feel like I could improve the recipe for the armour - had a kind of adamantine/cobalt vibe in mindOverall it's a bit more grimdark than what I had in mind but I think I'm just gonna go ahead and paint the rest as I'm kind of burning myself out with test schemes

>>98555408Not grey it’s Grey Wolf Blue. I was trying to emulate frozen flesh, but it’s not finished yet. I also mixed WWII and Warhammer for the simple reason that it’s a contest and everyone has the same mini. I wanted to take a different angle rather than just doing a different color scheme.

>>98555964Yes but eventually the cost and time of the paints, not using air brush AND primers will not only match an air brush but surpass it, it's just an obvious purchase.
>>98555964you can make back $180 just in savings from not having to buy rattlecan primer in a few years, so it's basically free and opens up an entire dimension of painting. if you can't see the value there because of an upfront cost less than a battleforce box you're too poor to be spending money on toy soldiers.
>>98555964If you're not completely new to this hobby and have more than 2 boxes of unpainted plastic but no airbrush you're an idiot, simple as.
I'm getting faster at this color scheme. This guy took less time than the lictor. I was going to do something different with the skirt flaps but the paler version of the skin just works.
>>98556025People who prime minis are mentally retarded

>>98555286That's a really nice Sentinel, anon. Also:>IGExtremely based.
>>98551253Damn, it finally dried. Fucking retarder shit man
>>98556703How much of a fucking retarder you added, anon?
>>98556738I drank half the bottle. Why?
>>98556703Good to see it dried but goddamn those print lines...
>>98556741I don't remember may be 50/50 or 70/30 something distilied water + retarder
>>98556790Most of the retarders usually require like 1-2 drop per 10 drops of paint, anon.
>>98556535Thanks, appreciate it!
>>98555964>another 50 citadel colorsan airbrush isn't the first thing you buy. it's something you buy when you want to spend money to make things you're already doing easier.
>>98555964>Etc. I can see why anons rather buy that than an air brushOnly because you are a dumbass. A good airbrush is such a game changer it's not even funny. Then again, you could just NOT buy overpriced Citadel paints, go with AK/AP/Vallejo instead, and the money you'll save in the long run will be enough for respectable airbrush. And this is not even talking about rattlecans.
got my first non-citadel warhammer colour paints and they have a long paper strip on them like some medicine bottle
>>98557485Yes, it's retarded. And also makes rebottling more pain in the ass because you have to fiddle with the label.
