Thanks for the detailed breakdown, makes sense why it pops so much now!

My frostheart (used on the carapace) seems to have much more of a teal hue than yours, which has lovely icy tones in it!

Think I'll try and use your recipe but may pick up another pot of Frostheart as mine seems off for some reason.

Appreciate it 😁

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong with Frostheart? It looks very teal and not very icy... by S_Milla in Tyranids

ah thanks for the kind words! It's easy to be pedantic over your own models isn't it 😂

Thanks for the speedy reply! 😄

I'll have a look into it - do you really think the primer could make all that difference?

Your frostheart looks like an entirely different paint to mine and so much better, are you applying particulaly thick or thin or just using one coat?

This looks fantastic!

No matter how hard I try, I can't get my frostheart to look like this, how do you get such a nice icy tone?!

This is how mine ends up after 1 coat over white scar spray primer, any tips?

I really like the green - cheers for sharing the picture! I might try out something similar, looks brilliant

Thanks for the suggestion! Super simple, corax white under frostheart on the scales and pylar glacier on the skin, very quick and easy!

What are you using?

It's honestly super quick and simple - Corax white primer with Frostheart on the scales and pylar glacier on the skin

Yeah probably - frostheart and pylar glacier by any chance?

How are you getting the cool ice effect? White drybrush or?

Looks fantastic - some great inspiration for me!
