RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Yup I'm aware. I won't see him for a few weeks yet so I'm just sending him updates. I don't dare send it through the mail.

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Good evening ladies and gents! I got some further work done on the undead warlord... Also, I made some progress on my Father's Day present to my dad! An M1A1 Abrams! The gray is actually the anti-slip coating found on the real thing...

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Good evening all, Made some further work on the metals tonight. Completely restarted the copper plating on the guy as well and tried a different approach to them. Sorry for the crappy picture; I simply could not get the lighting to be...

RE: Raven's Nest O' Bones - Update 08.06. - Hexwraiths I use color wheels and use the following bits to do my colors: If you're looking for a color to shade with, use the one opposite of the color you're currently using. If you're looking for a highlight, use the one next to it as a step up...

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Hey now, I'm going as fast as I can! I'm not like you where I can pop out half dozen figures in an evening! Will do! I'm going in with some brown washes first and then using a light and very subtle wash of mint green. The...

I second the tones on the Black Knights. I really love how rich the colors are without being too overpowering. Could I get a close up of the blue cloths on the horses? They look wonderful! All the best, Jake

RE: Santa's worship of the cult of Johnny Nsfw 6-9-12 Episode 11 Haha, you and a sword..... oh good times. I still love looking at that giant ghoul! What model is that bad boy anyways..... I might have to do one of my own! Jake

RE: Raizi's Frozen Host The dragon looks fantastic! I really like the different but unified colors you've used. Great job!! Jake

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Thanks! I think I'll keep his right shoulder pad bare like that as I like the corroded steel look like that. His armor is simple yet effective and I like it that way. I'll get some oils/filters out to add contrast to the...

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Thanks guys! Actually, no, haha. I painted the armor with grays and did some chipping effects. After I did this, I added some rust tones. With the tones completed, I then broke up some graphite from a pencil and rubbed it onto the...

RE: Santa's worship of the cult of Johnny Nsfw 6-9-12 Episode 9 For the love of I love the demons! Great job!

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Happy weekend guys, Made some further progress on my Warlord. I took a different approach to the metals this time around. Sans the chest plate, metallics weren't actually used on the model at all. One word: graphite. I picked up...

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Ah nonsense, if you want to do him, then do him! You can paint something plenty of different ways and have it look completely different each time. That's the beauty of creativity! Jake

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Wife, M_U has it right on. Many painters are inclined to paint metals in either one of two ways: metallic paints with thin washes/ glazes or simulating metals with Non Metallic Paints. I can go either route, but to my eye, neither...

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Haha, no worries. It's a German crackle varnish. I had never heard of it myself, but it's great stuff! I really appreciate the feedback I've been getting. I made further progress tonight on my undead Chaos Warlord. I...

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Upon putting the Krakelee (with a little bit of water firs) in the airbrush, I went for a very liberal spraying of the tree. You won't notice it at first, but the webs will build up fast. After only a few seconds of spraying, your...

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Who needs an excuse? Just knock it out onto a model! I have a new model I'll be posting here tonight, well actually a few. I'm tackling TMM, or True Metallic Metals, in this new figure I'm doing. It's an undead Chaos Warrior! Jake

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! I'd love to see the way you do yours as well! The tutorial is located here: http://massivevoodoo.blogspot.com/20...piderwebs.html The entire process is different and requires you to move quickly as the stuff will clog the...

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! It's strong, but it's just as delicate as spiderweb so you have to be a bit gentle on it. You shouldn't have anything touch it or it could ruin the effect. I'm only going to be using it on display pieces or possibly well-protected...

RE: Redarmy’s Painting Thread 2.0 – Redarmy Strikes Back! Just tried a new effect out.... I actually just tried out my idea for creating realistic spiderwebs (thanks to Picster off of Coolminiornot for helping me with this one!). Here it is.... Real enough for me! Jake
