theredcorsair Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 If from far away it looks like it the paint was put on thick, then it must have been put on really thick. To be more constructive, try applying your paints in 2-3 thin layers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â was thinking that as well, also on the back of the dread is it the flash from the camera that made it's back look white? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshall Egregorius Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 correct, it is the flash. the actual paint is chainmail. i thin my paints. i wonder why they are showinmg up thick to you guys... mabe its cause thier all varnished? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theredcorsair Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Now that I look at it, the squad doesn't look that heavy, but if it looks overpainted thats a problem still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshall Egregorius Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 ok...how so? (as in overpainted) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fausto2071 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 possibly too many layers? oh, for a more 'realistic' look for the metal, use boltgun metal for the metal parts, and then highlight with chainmail, and then a wash of badab black : ) Â how did you go about painting em M.E.?

marshall Egregorius Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 well he goes something.  black  basecoat black spray  chaos black layer  red:  mechrite red then blood red  gold:  scorched brown thin layer then shining gold. then (mabe - can't remeber atm) thin wash of flesh wash  silver/metal = chainmail.  green = narloc then goblin green.

Fausto2071 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 hmm I think thats pretty good, maybe it is the varnish then that makes the pics look like they're thick~is it a spray on varish or brush on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshall Egregorius Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 spray on. krylon. 3 bicks at wal mart. i get my primer there too. 3 cans of spray (usualy 1 blac, 1 white, and 1 varnish) for under the price of GW's 1 can. i think i can get used to it.

Fausto2071 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 fersher, if you have an ebay account you can pick up marines by them selves and can get a squad of ten for 17$ (sans back packs, bases, and arms) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
