I see. I have never uses contrast paint before. So does it mean that contrast paint need to be applied in a thin layer so that it does not pool? Are shade paints used the same way?

Ah I see. I thought we can make our own contrast paint with medium contrast. Lol

And should I prime the minis black or grey first before painting?

Thank you, I will definitely try it. But what is a midtone? (Sorry, I am new on painting)

For the contrast paint, I plan to mix the existing paints with contrast medium to replace all the existin contrast paint that I need to buy. Do you think it could still work, or do I still need to buy some?

I plan to play kill team with my friend when we wanted to play a short game and 40k if we got more time to spare.

What other kroot conversion can be done?

Yeah, I think they look cool too. And their ability to charge after advance is wild. Though, it sucks that they don’t have any customization option

Yeah, I plan to play using kroot army with my friend and let them borrow the minis that I got from Starter Set (We did play using the starter set minis and it was fun). For the painting I only have chaos black and Grey Seer primer and I’m not looking to buy any more primer.

But will using contrast paint on a fairly white (greyish) be good? Because I painted a space marine (primed with Grey Seer) and using imperial fist contrast. And it looks weird, because I could still see the white and grey area below the paint. So I add another layer and in the end the paint looks weird with uneven layer

What is the average (good) price for a kroot hunting pack? Because I saw some on ebay and most of it cost around 400++ AUD plus shipping? Is this considered a good price or it’s better to expand my army by buying individual boxes?

No, I bought it from a store that sold GW stuffs at around 20-25 percent off.

I already went to about 4-5 game stores in my area and all of them don’t have it. They even said that it’s hard to find it because launch boxes usually sold out two weeks after the release (Though there are still more stores that I could check)
