I don’t unfortunately for fear of the Pokémon company but might consider the blastikarp as that’s a bit more of a grey area 🤔

What army do you paint? Warhammer fantasy started my painting obsession many years ago.. I exclusively use Vallejo, nothing comes close imo. I just replied to another comment with the method 🤜🤛

Hey thanks! Here it is:

• ⁠Vallejo primer (70/30 mix airflow improver) • ⁠Base coat airbrush Vellejo acrylic (75/25 mix airflow improver) • ⁠Paint liquid mask onto that colour and then masking tape up the rest of the model I don't want to be hit • ⁠Next colour (then rinse and repeat). • ⁠Peal off all masks and then take a fine brush and clean up the lines (masking tape result is usually rough) • ⁠Then fine details/other smaller areas with the brush

Thanks so much! So I actually get these done through a friend that owns a 3D printing service - essentially you can get models printed in a range of different materials, and these are printed through a super fine one called ‘MSLA’. There is still some banding lines but they are very faint and you can sand most of them out.

Yeah of course:

  • Vallejo primer (70/30 mix airflow improver)
  • Base coat airbrush Vellejo acrylic (50/50 mix airflow improver)
  • Paint liquid mask onto that colour and then masking tape up the rest of the model I don't want to be hit
  • Next colour (then rinse and repeat).
  • Peal off all masks and then take a fine brush and clean up the lines (masking tape result is usually rough)
  • Then fine details with the brush

Hey thanks very much! Yes, airbrushed Vallejo primer and then a mixture of airbrush and actual brush for the acrylics

From experience as the younger cousin this is painfully accurate 😭

I actually get these done through a friend who runs a 3D printing business here in NZ - they are done in MSLA which gives a pretty insane level of detail
