Warhead01 Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 For the ace I used P3 Ryn flesh and Vallejo Umber shade - wash, thinned down. A few light washes and then Relayered the Ryn flesh and one last wash. His hat is where I am having the most trouble so far I am painting now with a fine detail brush. Yesterday I was using an army painter monster brush... it was keeping a good tip despite it's size.Today he will get the base textured and maybe a clear top coat. If I do that I can brake out the oil paint! which I haven't used in months. This one has been a joy to paint so far! I don't often sit down with just one miniature. It's usually a table full.

Warhead01 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 So. I'm more or less done now. And I partly ruined him. Oh well. Pictures in day or two maybe Monday evening. I will tell you that I attempted to airbrush a blue to white power sword. And had some over spray. I didn't notice until I took some pictures this evening. It's a little disappointing. The Plasma Pistol turned out very well. But you will just have to wait to see.

Warhead01 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 I took some pictures with my yesterday. I'm not 100% happy now as I said above but it looks good from a few feet off the table. the over spray for the power weapon cost me the model. But have a look and Enjoy. Here's a link to the Gallery I think the smaller pictures look much better.

WarriorFish Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 It's not as bad as I thought it might be, a lesson for next time!

Warhead01 Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 @Sviar, Thank you. @Warrior Fish, I had very high hopes up until that small amount of over spray. I have been airbrushing daily for the last..9 months and Felt so rusty with a paintbrush. I had very high hopes when he started to come out so well. The plasma pistol on the other hand came out amazing and was painted before the Sword. I was over confident. But I still am pleased he came out so well. I recognize my mistake and will endeavor not to repeater it. Or how ever that quote goes. I will try to get time for a last picture this evening, best lighting outside, and call him done. I don't expect any more vows this season. I'm just not feeling it. If that changes I have a few weeks. but it's doubtful right now.
