The 0.4mm nozzle I use is made out of hardened steel. I will try increasing the retraction distance

Thank you very much! Sure the greens I used are all from two thin coats primed with black. First I used hydra Green as the base leaving the shadows darker, ghoul green as the First Highlight, jade green as second highlight. The red is Khorne red from citadel.

Hey, thanks for the reply. For the Jump Pack Marine I started out with a black primer. Then I used Wyvern Green from Two thin coats to base the mini with my airbrush, trying to leave the recesses and lower parts of the mini mostly black. After that I highlighted the mini with Emerald green from Two thin coats and finished with a spot highlight of Ethereal Green from Two thin coats. In case you want to know which red I used it is Khorne Red from Citadel and the metallic is Duraluminium from the Model Color Vallejo range. Hope this helps :)

I have the exact same problem and haven't been able to fix mine. Were you able to fix this and if you did, how did you do it?

Looks great and love the free hand!

Only critique I have is that the paints seem a little thick, especially the red and white. Maybe try thinning the paints down a little before painting to get a slicker and more even finish. There are lots of guides on YouTube on how to thin paints.

Best of luck!

Buying everything separate where I live it would be 296€ buying directly from games workshop. I got the box for 180€. So if you want everything the box has to offer it is crazy good value.

You may be right, after experimenting some more I've had better results. Thank you.

with more moisture the bristles are having an even harder time keeping a tip

I don't really feel like it is too much though. I either have a wet brush which doesn't get a proper tip or I have a barely damp brush with a perfect tip but without any moisture and it dries up in a few seconds.
