Machine God Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Sorry if this has been asked before but what do you do with FW's Brass Etch? Is it to be stuck on the painted models unpainted or do you apply it to an unpainted model and then paint it?

Halandaar Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 On the unpainted model; then you can tidy up edges etc and paint along with the rest of the model. http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/q797/halandaar/Warhammer/Space%20Marines/DSC_0001_zpsua2o5xcj.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/319957-brass-etch/#findComment-4324901 Share on other sites More sharing options...
God-Potato of Mankind Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Unpainted or painted. They can even work over non-flat surfaces, depending on what you want. I "hammered" on some brass over a Loyalist icon, to make it look like it had been salvage and re-branded.

sockwithaticket Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I generally apply to unpainted or primed in case any clean up and/or re-application is required. There's no reason you can't apply it to a painted model and hand prime it before painting it.

Bung Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I prefer to glue the brass etch to unpainted miniatures, cause the can come off easily when you glue them to primed / painted miniatures.

Tranc Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Some examples of how I used etched brass on banners and a storm shield: http://image.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads/gallery/album_4287/gallery_37066_4287_186377.jpg http://image.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads/gallery/album_4287/gallery_37066_4287_233517.jpg And on vehicle doors (the Ultramarines symbol in the red circle): http://image.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads/gallery/album_4287/gallery_37066_4287_87641.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/319957-brass-etch/#findComment-4331048 Share on other sites More sharing options...
