Father Mapple Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Today I finished the furioso in the blog thread, and worked on a couple of attachments like magna grapple, frag cannon details, etc. Got out 7 half done death company with bolters to finish as well.

evildrcheese Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Sadly I haven't picked up my paint brush in the last couple I days, despite having a couple of days off work. Hoping to remedy that today, might even dig deep and try to finish my send Baal.

LutherMax Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Today is all about decals (right shoulder pads - 2nd and Death Companies). A few tanks to do too once they're gloss coated...

Venator Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 What gloss do you use? Do you use a spray can or an airbrush? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297201-ba-today/page/57/#findComment-4213076 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 I use Humbrol gloss clear through my airbrush. It's great stuff - the perfect replacement for the OOP Johnsons Klear.

Venator Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Do you spray it neat or thin it down? If you do thin it - what do you use? A friend sprayed my test mini gloss and then matt for me. I'm a bit nervous about doing it myself in case I ruin hours of work!

LutherMax Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 No need to thin it, it goes through an airbrush just fine. You can apply with normal brush too. There's a video tutorial on the Humbrol website. I then use GW Lahmian Medium to matte coat, again no need to thin, just make sure you give it a shake.

Crappy cell phone picture and the bases still need work: http://i.imgur.com/U0SxIXF.jpg How do you do your swords like that? I'm trying to attempt to do red swords in that same way, but this was the best I could do for that (experimental, I totally should have found a tutorial) http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j10/tballiv/IMG_1849_zpsqp6rxix4.jpg Also, my second guy (not the one in the pic) that I did the gold on didn't come out so great today, but fortunately I'm not done with him yet.

RedemptionNL Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 It's simply a gradient with an airbrush. Start with white, then spray a light blue in the middle and a dark blue at the end. For the best effect then you mask off one part and do the same process but reversed to the other side. But masking off a curved blade neatly is a bother, and because the encarmine weapons are all differently shaped, I didn't bother doing it here. For an example of how that looks, check out my Grey Knights in my signature. Their only curved blades are the halberds, where I could just make a template from a spare halberd to get the correct curve.

If you are using a white undercoat it wont be a problem :P I have grown very fond of my airbrush for that. I live in a apartment so i lack decent outdoor spraying options.

LutherMax Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Yeah I use my airbrush to prime all my models, so I can do it indoors at any time of day/night/year. It's actually cheaper in the long run as there's much less overspray / wasted paint and those spray cans are STEEEEP...
