Captain Scurvy posted:can always get the testors stuff in spray can, works pretty well. True, except for it comes in teeny tiny cans (that I can find) or I could buy one bottle of future and use that very nice airbrush I have and do my entire army and my friends in a few settings.

I'm not trying to criticize this hobby at all, but why don't you guys make your own paints and brushes? Why spend money on them? Are you guys gay or what?

Broken Loose posted:Somebody post some good kroot, I'm having trouble deciding how to do the skin tone on this one I've got on my desk My pictures suck but a fast and easy way is half the yellow foundation/half knarloc green foundation for skin, bestial brown for the leather and wash all that poo poo devlan. Looks pretty decent and takes 20 minutes to do an entire squad.

Iron Squid posted:When I drybrush something, should I just take a cheap, flat brush, dip it in the paint then rub it against some paper until almost all the paint is off the brush? Then press slightly hard against the model? Yes cept the press hard part. You literally brush over the model kinda lightly but do it until you get the affect you want. Good drybrushing builds up kinda slow so you have control

Pretty much. There is no one RIGHT way to do anything. Do what works for you. Experiment. Push the envelope. Watch it bend.

Yes. At least I'm sure it exists because I have a can of it somewhere around here. Primer never worked for me, came out clear and hosed things up no matter how much I shook.

Any tips on making the book's pages look weathered to hell? I actually care how he looks cause he's for Dark Heresy. Cept I need to put a flamer on him somewhere.

I know PV does his gold as Mithril Sepia Sepia but I was wondering other ways. Usually I would do it burnished gold then wash it with some sepia but I think I saw a recipe that was scorched brown-gold-mithril+gold highlights. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? What other good ways are there?

dpack_1 posted:The day's update on the dragon All I can say is that it looks great. A friend of mine used to base his Dark Angels by putting down ballast and priming it with the rest of the model and dry brushing it red/washing it black and dry brushing it red again. I imagine sand isn't hard, just find some or buy some that the train modelers use

God help me if I got the money to do a Tzeentch daemon army cause I love their stuff the best. I dislike how humanoid most of the daemons are made out to be and like the big writhing masses of confusion and teeth better.

I'm about ready to make a wet pallet too. I'm loving tired of putting out gobs of paint and maybe using a quarter of it before it dries.

Captain Scurvy posted:so i got bored painting my last honorguard and decided i wanted to do some converting. Im doing a space wolves army and really love the story for Bjorn the Fel-handed. After a whole night of converting and assembling i submit for approval I like it so far but I'd lose one of the wolf pelts on the front. I can dig the whole wolf motif but a little bit goes a wrong way. Just my opinion though.

Morham posted:Took a couple more photos, I'm a pretty bad photographer but I guess practice makes perfect so I'm sure I'll get better. This is the same knight from before but I took the other side and a close up of the face. I've noticed some little splodges of paint that shouldn't be there since I took these, and also the fact that my models are covered in dust. I really like this! The cross on the lower shield is a bit wonky looking but otherwise it's awesome! I guess I'm just a sucker for christian iconography and knights.

Blade_of_tyshalle posted:I find my back winds up really hurting when I'm modeling/painting. Any tips for workspace set-up, so I can no long have a future tolling bells in France? Get a nice comfy chair with arm rests so you can prop your arms up on that sometimes instead of leaning over your desk? I've got a bad back too. Stretching each morning and night helps a bit though.
