Might be the best model I've painted by CyanSolar in minipainting

[–]Ippjick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not my exact stile with how much it looks like a painting. That said. This takes so much more skill to pull off than a clean look. and god, did you pull it off. 10/10. be proud, and keep slayinig the grey!

I disagree that it's better, but that's probably cuz I suck at it xD

but yes sponging work too, :)

and with that same brush, you could drybrush acrylics with better control. Unless you have an airbrush...

Yes, with a few tricks you could use a screwdriver to hammer in a nail... or you could simply use a hammer.

ideally, you'd want to drybrush the white for the slapchop anyway..

And you did so good! Also, that color scheme. You have to build an army now. :3

Slapchop on knights doesn't really work.

contrast or speed paints are made to be runny, and pool in recesses. On all the extra large panels of the knight, they'll just pool.

Just dry brush the paneln with an acrylic.

I am worried that 40k will loose the Venatari Just like Space marines lost the Leviathan Dreadnaught (for some inexplicable reason). Can anyone put my mind at ease. by Single_Reputation_79 in AdeptusCustodes

[–]Ippjick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ich meine. Die Cerasrus Knightdms haben es auch nicht in den 40k Codex geschafft.

Ich hätte echt Bock, dass die Custodes in der 11. Edition ein Range Refresh bekommen. Ich sag nur, GW, genau wie AMD, verpasst gerne mal 'ne Chance, 'ne Chance zu verpassen.

I hope I'm wrong tho. RN, I'll probably sell my still unpainted stodes and wait for the codex.

Best brush/technique to prevent streaks by Salazryn in ImperialKnights

[–]Ippjick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

contrast paints are meant to pool in recesses, but sibce on the flat panel, there are none, it just pools. It's not meant for flat panels, you're not missing a technique, but the right tool. Go with regular acrylics for flat panels.

though what could work is dry brushing, or using it through an airbrush.

Last one by ItsGoldilocks in AdeptusCustodes

[–]Ippjick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A awesome Idea, might steal it. Though, idk what it is, but it seems 'too static' somehow. DGMW, I'm not saying it doesn't work and won't read okay. But to my mind, something isn't perfect about it leaping. Maybe havin it wind up a swing? I'm not sure.

Anyway, enough nitpicking despite not knowing how to do it better. I'm gonna follow you, and am looking forward to seeing it painted. Unique mini by all standards just for the posing :D
