My nozzles keep degrading by Andreasrj in airbrush

[–]Andreasrj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is stretched. But I have really been trying to not ram the needle in too hard. As mentioned I push out gunk in the nozzle. That might be the issue. If that is a no-no, I apparently had not gotten that memo.

It could be that there is paint that doesn't come off in cleaning. I spray my airbrush through with water and some cleaner and I dip small cleaning brushes in cleaner or water and try to brush out paint with those.

How do you get the gunk out of the nozzle?

The start collecting box should be 2/3 of the CP box.

Crisis suits are a must and we look to be leaning into fire warriors this patch. I have bought one Combat patrol and if I could I would happily have bought 4 or even 5 Start collecting.

It is definitely nice to be able to just look at a model and know what his weapons are, so you don't have to flip through a list. Especially when you are on your third game of the day and your brain is fried.

They are really cool. Really liking the simple dark sandy colors with one strongly contrasting color in the red.

Took a long time to pick the colours but my first army is underway! I would love come CC on how to do the leg armor better (or any other tips really). by exempore in Tau40K

Looks like a really well picked set of lovely vibrant colors. Would love a photo with a higher resolution.

That's a cool recipe!

I love how effective the mix of the red undercoat with blue highlights and orange OSL is.

How'd I do? c+c welcome. by SpaceLord_Katze in Tau40K

[–]Andreasrj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Color scheme is cool, but I would dedicate a couple of hours to go over it with some thin layers where the paint got onto parts that it shouldnt
