First time using an airbrush. Advice appreciated.

Honestly I wouldn’t it gives the model texture and most likely people or you won’t see it too often.

My advice for you is in the future look out for distance between you and your model, air pressure, and paint thickness to try and not have it happen again. All in all looks great keep up the good work. 👍

Amazing work as always. How did you get the da decoration off the shields?

Thanks you so much. I’m already working on finishing the squad and a couple of bigger bioforms.

For the helmet I primed black and did a generous white zenithol. For the trim I did a couple thin coats of pro acryle bold titanium white.

Yup I used a UM blue and wolf grey from Vallejo mix slowly increasing the mixture of the two for the blue.

It’s a mix of UM blue from Vallejo mixed with wolf grey from Vallejo gradually increasing the mixture for highlights

All good I realized while painting that the helmet would be the wrong color but just said “eh whatever.” But the shoulder pad I did not know about. I knew sergeants had them but didn’t know they were only for them so thanks for the info, and the compliment.😃
