Making some more custom deathwatch. A crimson fist (the midget), son of Antaeus ( the giant), and a black dragon.

The son of Antaeus might look a bit weird. He's got a flamer in his right hand almost like a walking cane. And he's resting his hand on the pommel of his sword with his left.. It looks a bit weird from this angle.

Anyone know a good place I can buy some ornamental doodads I can stick on the sides of buildings? I'm trying to finish up a mausoleum and I need some visual kibble.

looks kind of boring/unfinished as far as color goes but i like flashy high contrast stuff.

>>47892961
Ok ,thank you for your feedback

Is there no how to paint IG on the links? Can't find it at least

>>47892755
I like the color palette you've chosen, but this looks a little sloppy. some of your highlights need neatening up, and I would consider some brighter highlights (up to white?) on the greys. Your OSL or whatever that blue ink is supposed to be would look like a mistake if it wasn't symmetrical. Consider putting in more effort on that or painting it out

About 90% finished with my first sister. Primer went on a bit thick but other than that I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, though I'll probably tone down the weathering a bit

>>47893488
I see you applied the weathering with a brush?

Try using a sponge with a bit of the weathering color on it, dab it along the edges. Looks much cleaner.

Other than that, pretty good first miniature -- From now on it's a matter of getting better at seeing the little details and learning brush/paint control

>>47893520
Not my first mini, I've painted about 2k points of space marines before this, though this is my first time using resin and black primer

>>47897976
most phones work fine if you just tap the general area of the model and you're not too close to it.

>>47898038
equally proper lighting is key as well, more or less light may be needed to allow the phone to refocus.

>>47899004
I use Paasche D3000R 1/8 HP Compressor with Tank, Regulator and Moisture Trap. Basically you want a tank, regulator, and either attached or separate moisture trap. Then it's just one with the correct psi.

Does anyone know of any vaguely Hogwarts student looking miniatures out there? I really want to paint one because reasons.

I bought a cheap dollar store plastic figure I wanna strip the paint off and repaint. What should I use to get the paint off?

Nice, but not dark enough. Looks more like an IW dread.

>>47899004

Just look for a tank compressor that's $100 or more.

>>47899225
Alright, I was slightly worried because I actually ordered a compressor already by the time I had heard the warnings.

The one I ordered is a 3liter tank, attached moisture trap and can operate between 2 and 60 psi with its regulator.

>>47899456
You get some sort of respirator? Acrylics aren't toxic, but the dust still isn't something you want to breathe. If you're dipping into enamels & lacquers (for clear coats, maybe) you're dealing with organic vapors and NEED a filtered respirator.

anyone got any recomendations for a substitute glue in place of the citadel for new 40k stuff? I got gorilla gel glue that i wanted to try.

Also, any good air brushing resources? I have an iawata neo and an iawata compressor in the mail. Should i just use citadel air paints?

You might consider scrubbing the paint off with non-acetone nail polish remover. I've had some luck with it when used on the kind of styrene Citadel makes their models out of, but I couldn't pomise you it's not gonna hurt whatever your figure is.

>>47897690

Those aren't highlights on the blue burna boy. Their scrapes and scratches in his coat of blue paint from when he was stored haphazardly in a box with other similar models. I think I got him in an eBay lot as a freebie with something else that I actually felt like paying for and decided to try saving him with the non-acetone nail polish remover.

Very much depends what you're doing. I'm a 'my dudes' guy so I like to convert almost everything.

Squads I might cut and repose together. Characters I will do by themselves.

It is always worth having some minor guys standing by that need gap filling or something to make use of your spare greenstuff when you sculpt other things.

>>47900256

I watch tabletop minions and the dude's content is pretty solid, he has dropped some top notch tips that have helped me improve.

But idk, there's just something about him that rubs me wrong. He has that a-bit-too-professional sort of voice like he's the supervisor at a shitty retail store telling me to stock the shelves and smile when customers walk in. 100% not his fault I guess, maybe I was traumatized by somebody with his mannerisms as a child. Not trying to downplay him or anything, absolutely recommend the channel.

These threads are great: I fins that they always give you enough motivation to even just paint a mini or two every few days.
And anyone in the wargaming hobby for long can attest that smaller constant addition to the painted collection are where it's at!

I know the way he acts makes you want to punch a puppy but the advice is some of the best stuff I've found for airbrushing on youtube.

I don't understand.
Is the little guy pushing the big guy into some place he doesn't wanna go? Is he dragging the big guy away from some place he doesn't wanna leave?

GirlPainting is good if you can get past "her" voice. That's a big if, but the work is decent.

While we're on the subject of tutorials, can someone post some for OSL? Pic related is my very first attempt at it. I've seen worse, but it certainly leaves a lot to be desired. I'm starting a Convergence of Cyriss army and there's gonna be a whole lot more, so it's go-time.
Regular brushes would be preferable, but if it's easier to do with an airbrush that's welcome too, although the only 2 I have are a .2mm and a .3 and I've never used them for anything more complicated than base coating, or shading before I base coat.

>>47904466
No just find a way to put your phone down or on a support.
Holding your your camera or phone will always result in a worse photo since your hands still move a bit.

I got a shop air compressor and I've heard you can use those with airbrushes so long as you have the proper filters and air regulators. That true?

I could save a decent amount by doing that instead of investing in another compressor if so.

>>47899173
don't paint on scratches, right now it looks like silvery flames, get a sponge and do some sponge weathering instead, start with pure black and then go over it again with smaller amounts of REALLY bright silver.

>>47905316

All from scratch, given myself quite a task. Still, I couldn't find any premade bases I liked, and those things become repetitive pretty quickly. I've worked out how to speed through the manufacturing process though.

Lrn2cast. @ $30 gets you rubber and enough resin to cast off a couple army's worth of bases.

>>47906266
Hey, not the guy you've been responding to but, you're being a twat.

Your model looks like shit. The paint looks thick and globby, and there are splashes of color where there shouldn't be.
But you know what? It's okay, relax, stop making excuses. Strip the sucker and try it again. We all have to start somewhere, and if you're willing to take criticism (which from 4chan is gonna be a little rough) you'll make it.

>>47906362

The basecoats appear to be showing primer underneath, or whatever those black spots are supposed to be

It's also just generally speaking, a mess. Stop taking this shit personal.

>>47906389
There are no black spots on the model in my hands. Are you talking about under the ribs?

>>47906424

Not him, but the flesh doesn't seem to have a consistent tone, looks like some parts have thin coats where you can see black primer underneath

>>47906477
I absolutely assure you that is not primer. That is most likely me thinning too much and the pigment going blotchy, because it's a layer of Cadian mixed with white over a layer of bugman's glow, primer is completely hidden. But I have to go to work now.

I won't be stripping, but I may just spend another $2.50 and buy a new one eventually.

>>47900653
You can use nail polish remover with acetone, if you can't find anything else. Just remember to use it sparingly, as it does soften the plastic.

>>47905924
>hacking off integral bases

Why, anon? Why? It's such a pain the in the ass. Just suck it up and live with the integral base. Not every figure has to be on a GW bowling trophy base.

>>47904434
Is that a soviet ork?

>>47900878
what a major douche

>>47899295
I disagree with the "fix your basecoats" consensus. Yeah, smooth and even is always good, and yes, the cloth especially is pretty blotchy, but I say full speed ahead, do some highlights. The fig badly needs highlights, and the areas with the worst basecoat coverage are the raised areas that are going to be covered by the highlights anyway. Do it, anon.

>>47906508
Hacking it off isn't even the easy way to change up mushroom bases, either. Just glue it into a sunken base and putty the gap.

>>47906365

I know how to cast, I just don't want to. My need to have non-repeating bases outweighs the efficiencies of casting.

>>47906538
You gotta believe me that the real skirt looks a lot better than that picture. The color did not come out at all.

>>47906538

How the fuck can you even tell from a 55kb blurry jpg. It's not about smooth and even, it looks like the paints were thinned too much with water and it pooled everywhere, leaving the top layer way too thin while getting paint all along the edges where it shouldn't be.

It looks like it's melting.

Dont have a picture right now but can anyone help me

I've airbrushed up a mini, base colour and shading with the airbrush which makes the model very matte, which is cool.

however, to bring up the edges, I add a few glaze layers (thinned with lahmia medium). This glaze adds a very shiny film, which is visible under lamp light, and stand out as the rest of the model is matte.

How to get around this?

I rally don't know why people think that.
She's a middle aged woman. She has a totally normal voice (with what i presume is a german accent).
It just sounds weird cause she has this weird talking softly into the microphone thing going on.

Personally I'm not a follower or a fan of hers, but I'm amazed how much unwarranted hatred people have towards her.

It's an obsession that comes with optional roolz fer simulated tabletop combat.

The rabbit hole goes as deep as you want. Ironically, it's probably not any more expensive than hooking yourself up to a Playstation or Xbox that has $60 games coming out every couple of months.

>I have no interest in playing tabletop

I love the game, but don't get a lot of time to play it. It's what you put aside for in your life, just like any other hobby.

>but I do like the minis and I think I would like painting.

>Is this a fun hobby?
That's subjective, but since the guys here are doing it you'll get an echo chamber of yes here. I can say that it is nice to have a creative outlet that provides you with an outline of some sort (the setting) and lets you put your skills to work. It's rewarding to finish painting or building something and see your skills improve. And if you like the lore you have something to keep you busy while you are not able to actively do something hobby wise.

>I like warhammer 40k the most but just how hard or expensive is the hobby?
As hard as you are ambitious and as expensive as you are obsessive/greedy/a collector.
If I'm gonna spend 20 hours on painting a miniature I can even rationalize and justify GW prices. If you compare the costs to sports equipment, movie tickets or booze you'll find that it's about as expensive as most other hobbies.
You can get beautiful minis that are way cheaper than GW stuff though. I'm a big fan of the Perry historicals and I'm using them for fantasy games or conversion fodder for sci-fi stuff as well.

>I have no interest in playing tabletop but I do like the minis abd I think I would like painting.
Then you should give it a try. Maybe you can swing by a local game store and ask if they can teach you a few basics. If you like it stick with it, if you don't you know you can move on.
Just don't buy dozens of minis or all kinds of paints you don't need to start with.

If you just like painting minis the 'hobby' becomes kind of cheaper than if you are a gamer.
Especially if you are going for display quality paintjobs. You'll spend more time on less minis.

As with anything else really, the only way to find out if you like it is to give it a try.

This might help get you started.

>As an accent, I chose to use a bright orange as the primary color for the jewels on the model and to use a cool lavender color for the face mask. The orange is a natural contrast color for the purple. Actually, yellow is the contrast color for purple, but the jewels are an accent and not a dominant piece and since both the purple and orange have red in them, it minimizes the competition between colors and makes the transition a little more smooth.
>The lavender facemask kept the purple color I was working with, but removed the red aspect of it. This makes the helmet a cooler color, and brighter at the same time. With the pure white edge highlights, it makes the facemask the center of focus for the viewer’s eyes as most of the white edges point toward the lighter colored facemask

Fighting Piranha used to do custom prints.
If it's just numbers and letter though you can also look through their generic transfers or get brass etched parts from aetztech.
HF minis also have a selection of generic transfers in their shop.

I don't think they do.
But if you are in Britain I could see if I can send you link to a shop that I considered to do some custom work.

Requires that you send in either the stencils or the data for them prepared though.

Trying to prime white by brush is a nightmare. Vallejo primer is too watery whereas their black is perfect, which pisses me off to no end. I fear I'm going to put too many layers for just the primer (doing WE so it's still like 75% of the armor) and it'll be too thick.

>>47910480
Lavender is still a shade of purple, so it keeps with his paint scheme of doing the armor all purple. But it's both lighter/brighter, and it has less of a red shade to it. Basically, lavender is still purple and so keeps with the theme, but it's a cooler color than purple, so it cools down the color of the model. The opposite of that would be painting the mask a pink color, which is lighter, but warmer.

Seriously, just go read an article on color theory or whatever. It's just warm and cool, lighter or darker, and complementary vs contrasting colors. One half of the color wheel is warm, the other cool. Opposite colors are contrasts, colors beside each other are complements

Try using a smaller brush and wiping off some of the paint on your brush. Loading too much on can lead to problems like that. Otherwise I recommend some stronger shades and highlights. The skull on top should be good with a nice umber wash (OP refers to Agrax for a very good reason) and then a bright white drybrush. The boots could also go for a black or umber wash, with the folds specifically picked up with a brighter shade of brown just to start.

>>47911500
Then wait until you can get a decent pic

>>47911561
Washes are your friend. They'll fill in all the cracks and crevices and little grooves and all the places that should have shadows, as well as all the lines that separate different surfaces of the model. Without that thin darker line separating areas, even if you paint perfectly in the lines it will still manage to look sloppy.

>>47911409
I know all that but how did the lavender "remove the red" from the already painted purple? That doesn't make any sense.

>>47912188
He just means it tones it down. When you out two colors together, they each affect how the other looks. Say you have purple. If you accent it with red, it will make the purple look warmer. If you accent it with blue, it will look cooler. Even though it's the same purple, it looks different. It's like those old optical illusions where it's the same color of grey but it looks different depending on if the background is black or white.

>>47912222
Ah, now that makes sense. Fucking painters jargon.

anyone know how to test paint apothecaries online? I am trying to make a new chapter.

>>47913044
based Duncan shows how to thin your paints well. Don't remember which video exactly, just watch some of his beginning ones. You just dip your brush in, load it with the paint, then dip it quickly in your water. Then mix it all together on your pallet and work the paint and water together. Then you wipe off most of the paint, leaving the thinned paint on your brush, and making your brush into a thin point with a little twirling motion. If you need more water, just do a quick dip again with your brush and mix it in.

How do you dry your recently painted stuff, guys? Do you let it sit or do you have special drying areas or boxes you put it in?

>>47913267

>>47912588
you are not supposed to get an opaque layer in one shot, you are supposed to do multiple layers until it's opaque. Did you wash with a diluited paint? Because it looks like you overwashed badly. Also look for face tutorials.

no I use Nuln oil. maybe it's because my layers aren't completely opaque. also all the videos I watch, people seem to get opaque layers on the first layer which I guess I don't understand. sometimes I can do like 4 layers before it's even considerably opaque, and even then it's inconsistent and doesnt look even

>>47914906
watch out how you apply washes anyway, for the coats, i don't know for sure, what colours did you use? metallics tend to give problems to beginners and reds too,but mephiston red, if that's what you used, should work fine.
>>47914386
i don't believe you don't have 28 spare millimiters to put a model for a couple of minutes

>>47915303
I primed black, brown base coat, then did a red-pink mix, then did red over that. I use Vallejo. do people thin paints less for things like highlights and details?

>>47914841
You can buy tiled plasticard. Just break off the squares from that and tile or leave them as sheets for a more uniform look.

>>47915659
the opposite, the thickest should be basecoat.(but to be honest the basecoat is where thickness can be seen the most so you must thin either way). Why did you go brown pink red? Also when i said multiple layers, i didn't mean multiple different colours layers, you should make sure every colour is at least almost opaque before changing colour. (if you are doing many colours undercoats it could be a good idea not to make every single coat opaque or you will get a thick model).
Unless there is a reson to do pink in between, try brown and then red or even straight red over black depending on how well your red covers.But make the brown opaque before going on

>>47915303
I kinda meant a general area to paint in that I could leave it to dry.

>>47915778
Where are you painting that you can't set a model down for another 10 minutes? Am I missing something here?

>>47915801
I haven't gotten into it yet. It's why I'm asking.

>>47915738
I heard brown is the best to undercoat for metallics, and it's mostly metallic. I did pink-red because I thought it would look good, but I didn't like how it turned out so did plain red over it which I prefer. The brown was fairly opaque compared to how the red was going on.

Bump for advice please

>>47915826
You're not doing government work here dude, didn't you fingerpaint and shit when you were a kid? It's just that but refined painting techniques and getting slightly less paint on yourself.

i am afraid yours is one of those weak reds, it's one of the hardest colours, after white and yellow

You have to get a special painters drying case or else the air currents will oxidize the paint and cause chippage.

like just don't look at it

Yes. Vallejo Game Color Heavy Red (141) and Vallejo Model Color Red (926) are both listed as matches for Mephiston Red. See:

I know the process of watching paint dry, I just want to know what one would do if, say, they had to paint somewhere that wasn't indoors.

Maybe he only has a Toughness of 2. Some people just aren't cut out to be Space Marines, y'know.

Leftover sprues of plastic RTB-01 beekees. I think I just have extra arms and accessories in there now; probably not enough to make even one whole marine.

Is there any way for me to test the light I'm painting under? For instance, is there any phone app or anything that will give me an idea of if my light is skewed yellow, and by how much?

>>47918351
In fact, there is!

Requires a light sensor on your phone, but that will tell you lumens and color temp.

>>47918430
I see "light color" in the digital part, but it just says N/A

kek. typical euro whining about usa.

>>47918598
Weird. Should be giving a reading in kelvin. Are you sitting in the dark?

>>47918648
I'm not in the dark. It gives a reading in lux, which I assume is something like a lumen. I am between 120 and 2500 lux depending which lights I have on in here

>>47918678
Lux and lumens are related; lux are a measurement of lumens over an area (1 lux = 1 lumen over a square meter). So your sensor either doesn't register color or doesn't output the data for whatever reason. If you really want, a camera shop will sell you a light meter that will tell you the same thing; no idea how much they cost now.

>>47918808
Well it's a nexus 6. But I also have an iphone 6s or whatever it's called from work. Maybe there's something on the app store that will work

>>47917152
Gee Billy your mom let you have 2 deathsorms sets

>>47913835
It really, REALLY isn't. Unless you've got rock steady hands like Michael J Fox, or you are literally blind, it's seriously just a matter of practice. It took me three fucking models to go from the blotchy three-colour nightmare that most of /wip/ suffers from to actually decent quality. You can do better.
