    Thanks for the shout out Guy! I love the freehand detail on the forehead. It's fun to get creative to add splashes of accent colour on these marines. I really enjoy the "less is more" sculpting design, it seems to make it easier to be creative with these guys.

      To be fair, I think we have an undiagnosed cultural disagreement on what purple actually is. I've known folks who insist it lives right on the cusp of pink, others for whom it's right on the borders of royal blue. One day these tensions will boil over and the next big wars will be fought over this...

    You mention the namesake paint being a little yellowy.
    I’ve often thought a good painting challenge would be to paint a model ONLY using paints that are named around that model/faction.
    Very Minimal mixing is permitted.
    And you’re allowed to pick any base coat (spray can stuff) though get bonus points for using an appropriate spray can.
    Example: Painting an eldar model using only eldar-related named citadel paints.
    I thought of this idea when looking at the Seraphon named stuff while picking paints for my… well my Seraphon.

    For the sake of speed, the freehand gold sketching on the helmet can be simplified or omitted for the bulk of the troops. While Sergeants, officers, and more elite troops get more varied, complicated, or personalized ornamentation. Both to show the differences in rank, and to save your hands from carpel tunnel.

  • @TylerProvick
    @TylerProvick Před rokem +5

    Speaking of fixing mistakes: Keep a second brush on hand. When you make a mistake quickly dip it in water and use that to erase the mistake. If you are quick enough you can fully remove the mark with a bit of light brushing. Be patient, sometimes it takes a little bit to get it off, but it'll come off. Don't flood the whole model with water, and wait for that area to fully dry before continuing. This has saved me on many occassions.
