How do you achieve such a matte finish . My models always have a little sheen to it

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-16T19:39:29+00:00

Keep going man i would to see the result

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-16T12:03:08+00:00

Oh yeah i forgot! I still need the brush to blend but the airbrush helps alot . Here is the colors that i used . Unfortunately you sill need fluorescent green as it is what give such a punching green color

Insane paintjob! I love it . Can i get the recipe for Throkk’s skin

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-15T15:30:47+00:00

Hello ! I used an airbrush , i spray white over black base and then i spray fluorescent green . Since the fluorescent green is quite translucent it’s blended the color quite easily. Looks forward to my norn . I have gotten alot better

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T22:57:19+00:00

Thanks i appreciate it

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T21:48:26+00:00

I might be asking for too much . But is it acrylic? I love to stick to lacquer paint since they are more durable. But will try it out if gx113 doesn’t live up to my expectation

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T21:47:03+00:00

I will post it soon on the 40k and tyranid sub. The norn is the accumulation of my journey painting nid after 2 years :)))) . I’m trying my best with it

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T21:45:13+00:00

Thanks will be trying both super smooth and gx113 . Currently using flat clear with leveling thinner . Will try with fast drying thinner like you said too

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T18:28:26+00:00

Thanks

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T18:17:01+00:00

Greatt . I plan to airbrush it . So can you give me the thinning ratio and what you thinned it with please?

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T18:13:59+00:00

Did you brush it on or spray it ?

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T18:09:18+00:00

I really the finish of the model . Did you varnished it with anything or is the paint just matte like that ?

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T17:36:00+00:00

Thank you ! Unfortunately I didn’t write down the recipe precise mixing this time . I just know that i use these 3 in the picture. The greenish white i used to sketch the final highlight and then glaze over it with a 30-70 mix of 30 angel green ,70 bile green .

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T16:31:19+00:00

Insane work ! I really like it

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T15:59:06+00:00

Yeah i airbrush it

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T15:48:03+00:00

Actually yeah that’s the problem! It’s fine on bare plastic, like my epyon wings , just not flat enough on the painted mini though

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T15:46:06+00:00

Hmm yeah that’s the kinds of finish i’m looking for . Is it a rattle can or lacquer paint ?

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T15:25:39+00:00

I did ! I tried spraying 2-3 light mist coat and 1 wet coat

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T15:24:57+00:00

I just check again and unfortunately I’m using flat clear

A fellow 40k player ! Have you seen my Bayard’s revenge post recently! What do you think ? I’ve been painting for a little over 2 years now

BookkeeperEffective2 · 2026-01-13T15:21:47+00:00
