First time with an airbrush, worked out okay. Still some layering and edge highlighting to do.

Well, the tassles aren't a separate part. They're attached to the plastron and front cowling. The head is a separate bit, meant to be seated behind the cowling - maybe so you can paint it separately? I suppose if you had bitz from a bog-standard terminator squadboy and were fairly adept at greenstuff, you could make it work, but as-is? No.

Is that the plastic model? Or some "gift" from our slant eyed friends?

>>53357276
Nvm, didn't see the filename. Still, solid quality.

>>53357241
the coats of paint might be a little thicker than normal, but I'm very surprised you got a controllable spray at all with the entire needle missing.

I very much doubt that my H&S Airbrush would even approach working properly without that thing in there...

Well I did use a metric fuckton of flower with the Vallejo grey, but I really wanted the paint to be flowing since clogging is my bane. It actually went pretty fucking well. No thick coats or anything. Here, have a pic.

Maybe I have so much dried paint inside it helped getting a nice spray? Not gonna lie, it was the best airbrushing I ever got, the spray was great.

>>53357401
looks smooth indeed, nice work Anon.
You got very lucky I imagine, perhaps you usually have the needle too far forward?
Because an airbrush really shouldn't clog up that easily, even when using something a little heavier than normal paint like primers.
Generally a little more pressure fixes any tip dry I see with my Vallejo primer.

That is... most peculiar xeno-flora.

>>53357440
The airbrush tends to block in thr paint cup/airbrush junction, which is on the side. But I'll think about the needle, it might help with with those drops of paint going onto my nuzzle and clogging the front at least party, making my spray not straight but rather angled.
Thanks!

So I'm working on making my friend's siren character for a tabletop game. In that verse, Sirens are birdfolk with wings and arms, and are alot more thicc.

So here's my first attempt to sculpt thick glutes onto a scorge. Somewhat okay with it.

>>53358109
I mean, depends o the dildo. I bought one for a friend that was 50 euros. And I know that some can go around a hundred euros or so.

any of you guys ever done miniatures like perry miniatures stuff?
I was wondering about buying a box with sprues for 40 guys and converting them for use in fantasy game

>>53358322

Yeah, they make some lovely stuff, comparable to older GW plastics really, not a fan of this new stuff that basically makes stuff monopose

>>53358278
The Teenie Weenies (as these are called) are 5 for $25, fixed price, random selection of 5, random colours.

The actual dildos they make range from $50 to $170, depending on size, type, colour and options.

I got my self a new a massive new desk and I wanna get back into painting again to finish off all my guard before 8th hits. Anyone got any recomendations on what to get for a painting station?

>>53358462
make that around $200 actually, some of the really large XLs are very pricey.

Cheap ones are mostly shit. Good ones have multiple layers with a more or less self healing surface over the actual cut proof stuff. Get a Revell one if you want a compromise.

well im asking about resin

So, I'm thinking of saving up and getting either a Baneblade or an Imperial Knight. Which one do y'all suggest? I've never built either, and I want something cool for my IG army or a nice display piece.

>>53360134
Imperial Knights sound like they'll suit this edition better, being scary in melee and able to provide you with a beatstick to stand in front of your guys.

Not to mention they look super cool, though Baneblades are also very classic IG.

Resin is the most fragile of the 3 possible material. So if you strip resin, make sure it's with something you can leave plastic in fo ages without any problems like Dertol or simple green. And even then, make sur to be fast, just in case, and to check there isn't any alcohol in the product.

>>53360134
Buy a Baneblade. Knights are overdone as fuck, Baneblade are the true soul of the Imperial Guard. Plus Haley made some excellent novels about them and if you're careful and willing to take your time, you can magnetise it enough to make a shitton of different loadouts.

A Banebladr and its variants are THE centerpiece of any self respecting IG army.

>>53360180
Man this takes me back.
Thin your paints anon, the fact that the robes have lost so much detail is problematic. Make sure yo not overload the brush even after thinning.

If you're an existing guard player, a baneblade just looks better in the middle of your collection than a knight. It's a style thing.

I was just at a nearby dollar store looking for something, and came across some Hot Wheels Die-Cast space ship models. At that price, I couldn't resist the impulse for some more knick-knacks.

I'm looking for a way to add some texture to these things. The lines are a bit too clean, but I didn't like the more pixelated print job on the "battle-damaged" ones.

I want to make them look like they've been used a bit. Ink washing sounds like it's the way to go, from what scraps of memory I can bring up, but I don't have any model painting stuff with me, and it isn't worth the investment for $16 for 6 models. I'm looking for a semi-decent improvised solution, like maybe putting on some show polish and rubbing it off with a q-tip or something.

Super long lore-y question sorry about that, the deathwatch have access to more exquisite weaponry other chapters wouldnt normally have but could the deathwatch somehow requisition something from a chapter like a baal predator or on the more extreme side like a thunder wolf for a member who is also a space wolf.

>>53366287
okay, there are many weird methods that get nice results on foam

for general texture, take a sharp, uneven rock that fits the palm of your hand and start striking / glancing / grinding the surface of the foam.. start gently to get a feel for the effect and slowly increase the force

for pock marks, pulling out little pieces with tweezers can look very good and is appropriate scale (digging out chunks with knives tends to be too big)

starting a cut with a knife, then rip off pieces (not cutting) can produce a good effect - rip with tweezers, or just with your fingers

a small metal scouring brush can produce nice scratches

you can always glue debris back into a hole if it gets too big, or glue in sand, small pebbles, etc to vary the texture

thanks, also the grain size of the sand matters a lot - if they're too big then the wall looks too "rocky" and not like plaster. i use several different filters / sieves to separate out my sand into different grain sizes and i store each size in a separate bottle. i also dry the sand in the oven before doing this so it pours easily and doesn't clump. you may want to experiment with filtering down to small sizes to get a finer surface texture

>>53366404
Seems unlikely. They have their own set of chapter tactics and strategems that they implement. Those that join the Deathwatch conform to the way Deathwatch fights, not the other way around. That being said, I'm sure you could spin it as Deathwatch with Space Wolf/Blood Angel allies.

>>53366639
also i apply the mixture with a popsicle stick and scrape it onto the walls. then i use the end of the popsicle stick to "push" the mix up against all the edges (it's quite thick so this is necessary because it can't be "painted" on so to speak, more like smeared / daubbed on)

I remember one anon sometime last year or the year before was doing his Thousand Sons somehow so their armor was all sparkly and shit. Anyone have a screencap or link to his process?

>>53366819
Sounds like he mixed tints with Leadbelcher or just used metallic paints from Vallejo/Timiya

Seriously? Thick paint gums up details, can turn crumbly, or give your model a globby look. I'd say that's "problematic." Just because people use words with more than two syllables doesn't mean they're trying to intimidate you, anon.

painting on the guy himself looks good, although I think the NMM could do with a little more contrast to make it look more reflective than the other materials around it.

Aside from that the only think that stands out to me is the base.I'd maybe add some very diluted washes of browns and sepia tones over some of the skulls.
The bones look kind of like one indistinguishable texture, it would look nicer if you could read them individually as different bones, some fresher than others..

>>53370526
Alright, will add more white on the pad. And yeah, I noticed the base with the photo. I'll carefully add a bit of agrax between each skull. I think it's like this because I took the lazy route and drybrushed the base too heavily.

You can barely see any detail on his right hand and the leather shoulder danglies.

Yellow is a very frustrating colour to work with, but don't get tempted to slap it on thick just to achieve a solid coat. Multiple thin layers always.

How long have you been painting.

Your Brush control doesn't seem that bad, which is a good skill but your paint is way too thick in some areas, especially the lightning claws swallowing up detail.

Your metallics are ok but need work on shading and highlight, edge highlighting especially.

Yellow is one of the hardest colours to paint well so it's a bold choice but you've really applied it too much and too thickly..

Overall, I think you yourself can see, compared to another model GW for example where you are in terms of skill but you need to keep on practicing.

but, I will always say this, I would rather face an entire army painted like this vs an unpainted army.

My Advice, going forward is use GW's Averland Sunset spray as a base, you'll be much happier

weeabork update, got a mechanical pencil to make uniform sized rivets with, also tried to make tau style segmented plates and it worked out well enough (will need minor touch ups)

current dilemma is picking a pose for the boy with the daki

my choices are:
a: raised shoota + this head (but without the helmet) pressed toward daki or looking away
b. shoota (to be converted) pointing away + similar open mouth head
c. katana (also to be converted) pointing away + similar open mouth head


a was the original intention but I'm not completely set

>>53370908
strip it and scrub it in warm soapy water, sometimes there's release agent left on the model

>>53370908
Rinse them off well before you start painting.

Is it, by any chance, a bottle of Imperial Primer where all the valuable pigment has globbed together in a giant mass in the center of the pot and all you can get out of it is that thin wash? Yeah, I had one of those too. Throw that shit away and don't buy any more of it. Of all the things I've bought off Citadel's paint rack, that was the only thing I really regretted purchasing.

>What should I do?

>>53371455 is on the right track. I like Rustoleum's 2X.

>>53371399
It can be, but for wraps and rags not really, the key is keeping your fingers and tools wet so it doesn't stick.

here's a tutorial for belts, wrap a belt around and it becomes a bandage, for larger rags, look up tutorials for cloaks/tabbards but don't make them as neat and squared off

>>53372109
When I was building terrain, I made extensive use of slabs of pink insulation foam, cut with a hot wire cutter, and then shaped with a sander. After that we'd cover it with spackle and sand, and go from there.

It would seem to me that something similar could work - a small piece of some workable foam, shaped roughly to what you want, then covered in grout or spackle (to protect it from spraypainting, that shit eats foam), add your bits/rocks/decor, basecoat and paint. It's finicky, working with those sorts of pastes, but once you get the hang of it, you can make some neat stuff.

I've never tried it on something as small as an individual miniature's base, though, so I can't guarantee it would work.

I've been wanting to do a lightning-type effect on these guys heads, with maybe doing a light grey wash over part of the face to look like lightning behind mist. . Are there any special tricks to this, or should I just take a hit of diazepam and hope for the best?

>>53372293
Lightning is fairly easy to achieve, it just requires a steady hand - take a dark blue, zig zag it over the area. Take a lighter blue, follow the same path but leaving some of the dark. Then use white to pick out some of the zigs and zags and voila, easy lightning.

The mist, I dunno. Not sure what effect it'd have on the lightning other than making it appear murky.

>>53372293
google around for nightlords painting tutorials to get you started on the lightning.

Checked up some tutorials, but all of them have stupid time jumps, that show dude saying Paint X and then the model is ready in an instant.
My main concern is hot to make flesh not look like a burn victim. On my chaos warriors it was ok, but my new game has a ton of females and after doing two, I think It would have been better if I left them unpainted.

Start from stage one like you don't know anything.

Go slow, be conservative. Thin your paints and take the time to apply multiple thin coats. Impatience will be your enemy.

I know you said you hate time jumps, but Duncan really is the best for beginners. He can show you how to get great effects for little effort.

Try this: just buy the base colors you want. Try getting clean base colors (no over-thick paints, even distribution, neat lines and no overlap) and then just apply a universal wash. If you can do that and get something that looks reasonably good, then move on to layering. And you don't even have to start over, you can just move on to applying layer paints to the models you've already done.

>>53373229
yeah, but he does realy say stuff I would like to know. For example, how do people paint their models without their hand shaking after a few seconds? Specialy with those small parts of the model, like belts or pistols etc.

I tried the base color grey+wash, but then I had to paint skin too and it ended up looking realy bad. Plus it is not like am new to painting I started in 1996.

>>53373284
Elbows on table and just really really be careful nig

>>53373284
Practice. Idk what to tell you, that's just fine motor skills. Some people can keep their hands REALLY steady. Try resting your elbows on stuff. Practice without and paint to just see if you can control the brush.

Also not many people know this, but don't use the whole brush to paint. Technically you're only supposed to get the tips of the bristles wet. Some people just load up their brush and ruin their control and bristles.

It's just about practice at the end of the day, and really pushing to get better.

It's very nice and I have to say the highlights are nice but could be a bit cleaned up. The runefang silver should be a fine highlight and not everywhere. I think that the skin colour for the beast would work in a black that isn't blue like the armour. Nice job anyway.

Anyone with advice?
All the brown was boring so I did some albinos.
Just need to pick out the details and finish the bases.

>>53372938
It's really only ever bugged me when it feels like it was exclusively airburhsed. I think combining airbrushing with traditional brushwork is the best combination. I'd still like to give it a try though one of these days. It's gotta be pretty good for getting stuff done en masse.

>>53374834
What kind of advice? Off the top of my head I'd say more shade on the albinos and more highlights on the horns.

Maybe liven up the base with some grass, or a light green drybrush or something. Try to reduce the amount of brown. Btw I like the purple.

Any closeups?

>>53374870
Thanks
What colour should I do for the design on the banner to contrast the purple? A white or yellowish maybe?

If you compare the left most albino with the banner one, you will see I tried doing different shading (the left one is way darker in the recesses).
yes will add grass.
The horns I will probably highlight up to screaming skull

How old are you anyway?
If you are too old i dont think you will get any better now due to the poor eye sight old people will have.

>>53374834

If advice is what you seek you should post better pictures of individual models.

>>53374941
I'd go with either a golden yellow, or a sickly pale yellow.

Soviet bear guys for Konflikt 47. The polar version came out a little more dirty and chalky than I expected after a wash, and I'm trying to tidy him up.

Finishing up the second guy, guy im basing atm. Fucked up his chest eagle. Shits hard

Guys, I have Retributor Armor, Gehenna's gold and auric armor gold

How do I paint gold?

>>53375948
My approach would be first base with retributor, wash with wash of choice, i would go for either agrax earthshade or reikland fleshtone, then bring back some of the shine back with a glaze of gehennas gold on raised surfaces, then highlight with auric, and a final, neat highlight with runefang steel on the very sharpest parts.

>>53376093
I will try that, thanks!

>>53375948
Drop them and get vallejo liquid gold series.
Thats how you paint gold.

Hey, /wip/, am I dumb for considering those 3mL Citadel paint sets to replace my years old paints?

Basically all my Citadel paints are pucks at this point, because I just got reintested in painting stuff in like the last month.

>>53376278
I find the full sets have too many I'll never use, but citadel's good.

>>53376347
The 3mL ones are the faction/starter sets with 6-10 paints.

>>53376432
ohhhh

I find the small pots are more of a stopgap thing. They're good for a few models, but if painting more than a squad you'll want the full size ones.

>>53370695
Hahahahah, you've completely ruined it.

Hey /wip/
Can you guys recommend some off the shelf products for stripping paint of plastic minis?
Something you might find in a super market in the UK?

Got some great old heroquest models second and want to get them cleaned up.

So were do you guys get your magnets and how do you tell how strong they are?

>>53372938
depends, if you just spray some cheap highlights then I agree

>>53376743
ACETONE FREE (do NOT use acetone on plastic) nail polish remover
certain brands of oven cleaner (you'll have to search online to find local examples)

however my personal favorite method is isopropyl alcohol

>>53376743
http://acleaningproduct.co.uk/product/purple-power-industrial-strength-cleaner-degreaser-32-fl-oz/

This stuff is pretty good, I use it in the US (not sure if the formula is different). It looks like it's sold in the UK as well, but I'm not sure if you guys carry it in grocery stores like we do here

>>53372548
could use some touching up: lenses, plume, shoulderpad trim

>>53373038
That arm looks like a big ol poopturd

>>53376864
I ordered some about a decade ago online. The store page should tell you how much weight they can hold.

Recommendations for online stores may vary depending on your location.

>>53376743
fairy power spray

it even comes in a spray bottle so you don't use to much.

I've used it on plastic and metal myself. just schoosh it on, leave for a coupe of minutes then scrub with a hard toothbrush

Thin your paints my dude. The fact that we can't discern the eagle anymore is proof enough something's fucky. Don't overload the brush either.
Also, give a goddamn diaper to this marine, he just murdered that base.

>>53377515
Yeah I messed up the metallics, its hard to thin metal paints, luckily most of them dont have such large metal areas.

What colours/pattern would you use for tanks that would go with this dude? The theme is an ice world regiment.

I google 'winter tanks' and get lots of images of tanks painted green then whitewashed as hasty winter camo. I'm not sure how to paint a tank that was built and painted to fight in an icy environment.

Well, you've got three obvious colours on your guardsman. Grey, light grey and black.

I'd go with some variant of splinter camouflage. Straight lines and hard angles. Probably don't need the smaller dashes (since they'd get muddied up on the tabletop)

>>53376743
Dettol, you need the original brown liquid. Soak the minis in a tub then scrub the melted paint away with a toothbrush.

what if I want a custom house ?

Put both elbows on the table and wrest the bottom of your painting hand on the base of what you're holding.

>>53377939
While that guy is indeed a faggot, you can get blank transfer sheets super cheap. If I remember though you need an inkjet printer to get them right.

>>53378002
don't think my printer is of the right type, but I might give a try, even if the shitty freehand is funnier.

>>53373325
>>53373343
I keep my elbows on the rests of my chair. I can't have my elbows or arms on any tables at home, as they are too high for me .
Plus I have been trying to paint since 1996, I just get worse through the years. I never was good, but 10-15 years ago my hands didn't shake that much and my eye sight was much better. Right now when I try to paint a model it is more or less like this. I undercoat it, leave it to dry. start paint details get paint from belts,ammo etc on the uniform, specialy if I thing the paint too much. So I leave it to dry, try to fix the uniform, and get pain on the belt or ammo. And this way it goes back an forth more or less for a day or two till I get pissed enough to stop painting

>>53378055
If you're not improving, and are having trouble keeping steady, then the only advice anyone is capable of giving you is "try something different". If you have Parkinson's disease, then there isn't really much advice that's gonna help on that front.

Chill out, take deep breaths, rest your arms, practice thinning paints and brush control.

Thanks, a lot of cleaning up will happen, mostly experimenting at this point.

More work on it, found a skintone for the beast i like, maybe gotta lighten it up a notch. What should i paint on the shoulderplate? First time painting chaos miniatures

>>53378189
Also, black or white teeth for the beast? im conflicted.

>>53378149
My problem is that at the store I go to, to play your army has to be played at least table top for me to use the tables.

How do you practice paint thining and brush control?

>>53378263
Do it a lot. Do dry runs. Make sure you can mix a small amount of just the right consistency. PRACTICE. You practice. Like any skill.

In honour of Samurai Jack finally ending, I'm considering doing up an Aku miniature. How could I go about this? Was thinking of building a solid skeleton out of sprue and then just sculpting all around the guy. Seems like the simplest way to do it.

>>53378189
>>53378204
White teeth. There's already enough black. Also in the future (this is just me) I think light gold highlights look better on gold than silver-on-gold highlights.

Thing looks pretty fucking nice now. If you wanted to spiff up the flat panels I guess you could go in with a dark red and draw some runes/script.

>>53378582
Thanks, sure, white teeth it is. Highlight on gold is silver because i dont have a gold highlight color at hand, and was just experimenting how it would look with silver, gonna pick up some auric gold or something tomorrow! Ill have to think more about what to paint on the shoulderplate, maybe a symbol, runic things doesnt sound bad either.

Finished painting some Chaos Dwarfs for blood bowl. The ball is magnetic

I want to glue magnets on the underside of bases to make them stick to metal carrying cases (got thebidea in another thread)

Any idea on how big I should choose the magnets?

>>53378768
It's nice but the brightest color should come from the source. You have it the opposite way. So basically you have a bunch of candy corn holders

Since I've gotten sick of working with metallic medium, I was considering changing up how I paint metallic colors for stuff like Alpha Legion and Thousand Sons. I was gonna base with silvers and then add a color glaze afterwards.

So what's a good three-color combo of silvers? I need bright stuff, so I was considering something like Ironbreaker as a shade, Stormhost as a highlight, and maybe some Vallejo color as a middle tone.

>>53377173
I'm in America and Ive been looking locally to no success.

So anyone here got their own wash recipe they'd like to show off?
