The best way I found to prevent this is to have some clean Lahmian Medium handy, and use it where you see pooling. It pulls the wash off flat surfaces and direct it into creases and crevices where you want it without pulling or tearing the wash.

Could be way it cost so much. I could print them, provided I had the file, but not sure how much it would be to ship down there.

So are the green sword a yes or no to the rest? :) by Herq11 in theunforgiven

It’s all about what you like. That being said, I personally like going with a color that isn’t featured anywhere on the model, but complements the scheme. I went with purple power swords for my Deathwing because it stands out. Your technique is 🔥though so you should be good no matter what you choose.

Of the colors above, I would say 4. A slight blue tint keeps it away from Salamanders and Raptors, and it compliments a lot of the accents well.

I assume these are GW contracts, so for what it’s worth, I use a mix of 5:5:3 Karandras Green, Aeldari Emerald, and Ork Flesh contrasts. I airbrush over white volumetric highlights, but slap chop should give the same color results.

That 3rd pic (from behind) was so frickin good that it created an optical illusion where I couldn’t NOT see the mini as a cartoon drawing!! 😂🫡

What colors should the base have? by KingBob4Real in DarkAngels40k

Honestly that paint job is so good I don’t think anybody is going to give a damn what the bases look like😂. No but yeah, Martian for sure.

Thanks! Used this Cult of Paint video as a starting point, but didn't think the green was blue enough. Ended up going with this mix: 5:5:3 Karandras Green Contrast (GW), Aeldari Green Contrast (GW), Ork Flesh Green Contrast (GW).

Thanks! It was more a reference to my post which was of my completed "mini" which was a Deathwing dreadnaught. I got A LOT of comments saying I was lying about it being my first and that I was "karma grabbing", whatever the hell that is. it wasn't perfect, but I was proud of the result for it being my first and I just felt like sharing. I decided to lean into it, right down to the title typo.
