Firepower Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Weird, when I was a scrap I never had anywhere near that sort of result when using inks. Then again, I was a lousy painter as a kid :P Â So then, the preliminary glazes are just inks, no flo-aid or dish soap or crazy secret ingredient? I ask just because inks always came out looking glossy and shiny when I used them. Â Sharing the recipe for that red couldn't hurt either ;) . Â And just what is that Templar doing skulking around in the background, hmm? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ephrael Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Your user name sure is misleading sugar-free because these are some of the sweetest looking marines I've ever seen. I can't wait to see more of your painting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koriel Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Love the yellow. Nice depth and it aint chalky, heck nice color scheme overall and love the freehand motif <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Chaplain Astador Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Great to see your still around mate! :P These guys look just as sweet as your Templars! I assume the black and red are done the same as the Templars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edemia Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 My god these guys are awesome! I love that yellow! Do you think it would work just as well over a grey primer? Any chance of telling us how you do that red? Can't wait to see what you do for the tanks, or if you do a dread! Â Edemia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugar-free Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 ok, to answer some question. if you use a good white undercoat. i use Dupli-Color primer. u can find them in most automotive shops. i love it and it's cheep. inks ill go right over it. paint it on just like any other color and the primer will suck it right up. and yell it will be a little shinier then your other colors, but remember i am only using it as a base for my golden yellow. i don't think you will get the same result doing inks over grey primer. no harm in trying though.  now for reds i like to start with a dark undercoat, but sense i have to spray him white i just paint everything i want red black first or i will just ink it with black ink first then start with the reds.  http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/3057/picture315p.jpg  i am working on some pics of my progression with my yellow on my boys, i will do some pics of the reds too here soon.  and just for fun, here are some pics of my other armies im working on. http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/8568/testrun014zk7.jpg http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/6766/picture028nk.jpg  got to go be back later.

sugar-free Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 alright all, here is a quick run threw on how i do my reds. i started by inking the white undercoat with black ink. u can just paint the areas with chaos black if you want. inks are just quicker. http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/6038/stepbysteppics029.jpg  then i put a coat of scab red on now don't forget to water down your paints alittle. http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/9942/stepbysteppics030.jpg  and so on http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/1783/stepbysteppics031.jpg  on tanks or bigger models i will mix blood red and mechrite red. but for the marines i don't really need that step. ok. i don't know where my pics of my next two steps went, but i then highlight with blood red. after that i do a detailed highlight with blazing orange. i then change to i small fine detailed brush and use fiery orange to finish the highlight. http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/2383/stepbysteppics034.jpg  then i use the same brush and really water down some chaos black and black line the marine. just to clean him up. http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/9906/stepbysteppics036.jpg  hope that helps alittle. now here are some figs that ill be painting soon. http://img576.imageshack.us/img576/4189/stepbysteppics027.jpg http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/8831/stepbysteppics026.jpg  ps. don't be scared to mix your colors. i have been doing this for over 15 years or so and im still trying different ways to paint these figs. cheers all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
