Kronk Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Below are a couple of troops I finished last week, a dreadnought I've been working on here and there, finally deciding to finish, and a piece of terrain. The terrain is a small hirst arts piece. Just some loose bits I had after making a tower. The dread is the AoBR dread. The first 40k piece I ever assembled, actually. And the troops have a couple of black templar bits (shoulder pads and chainswords). http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b176/bwtodd/Minis/2009%20Christmas/Misc.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b176/bwtodd/Minis/2009%20Christmas/Misc2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Loring Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 They look very nice. The Black arour looks very crisp, with some very nice detail painting. Some close-up shots perhaps?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vissah Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Lovin the clean black mate can you maybe tell me how you do it cause I need to be painting black after Christmas aswell :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kronk Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 I use dulcoat automotive black (flat finish) primer for the base color. Any missed spots I hit with Reaper Master Series black. After that, I go over the flat areas with Citidel Wash Badab Black. That's it. Edit: and I use a clear matte spray finish to protect the mini. It also cuts out any gloss from the paints I use.

Vissah Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Sounds good thanx I will try that out for sure :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kronk Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 Sorry, it's not dullcoat. It's Dupli Color automotive primer (flat black). I've also had good success with Krylon Flat Black Primer. My buddy swears by the Games Workshop Black Primer, but I've never tried it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
