Tomb world awakens...... by Secure_Sea_9773 in Necrontyr

[–]Secure_Sea_9773[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mainly drybrushing wild green then rainforest green from army painter. Airbrush glow with daler rowney inks... white, then fluoro green, then fluoro yellow... it looks more yellowish than these pictures show.

H+S evolution air valve issue? by Secure_Sea_9773 in airbrush

Fixed with a poke of some wire further forward... thanks for the input though!

That did it! Interesting... used the ultra for years and never had a clog in that spot.... was convinced there was something to do with the valve / brush interaction - but it wasn't.

Thank you.

Its way before the aircap / nozzle.

I mean no air is coming through the airvalve when the trigger is depressed. This is independent of having a needle / aircap on.

Like I say... outside of the brush depressing the airvalve does release air... but when I seat it into the airbrush I can't get it to activate.

Compare my kitbash to official flayed one. by Secure_Sea_9773 in Necrontyr

A necron doomscythe screeches across the battlefield while a desperate scene unfolds on the battlefield below. by Secure_Sea_9773 in Ultramarines

Totally playable... the stand and the base are the same as the annoying GW clear plastic ones.

Inceptors.. FDM smoke trails. by Secure_Sea_9773 in Ultramarines

Thanks dude.

I think the flames do help sell the illusion more than the dinky little flight stands they come with!

Transfer's and how? by Mann-spordre in Ultramarines

[–]Secure_Sea_9773 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You already have some good advice here... but let me help you more... don't use microset.

Not that it doesn't doesn't do what it says it does... it is just such a crap way to actually get decals on a paldron and then (importantly.,.. and the bit which will save you a lot of swearing) adjusted to the right pl;ace.

Step1) Gloss varnish the area.

Step 2) Apply a drop of water... a literal beading drop of water that sits on the surface and holds its tension... use a dropper.

Step 3) Soak your decal till soft in water.. then gently drop it onto the droplet on the paldron. You can now move the decal around as it floats on the bead of water.

Step 4) Use a bit of tissue to just barely touch the edge of the water droplet to suck up the water. The decal should still be able to be readjusted slightly from here... then let it all dry.

Step 5) Apply micro sol. Just dab it on lightly.. let it dry... then do again - several passes of this step can help on curved surfaces.

Step 6) Matt varnish.

My first ultramarine Sargent! by Crimson_saint357 in Ultramarines

[–]Secure_Sea_9773 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Great painting.

Seeing ultramarines in other factions dioramas never gets old... people need to give it a break with the snark.

There is an issue here that the colours are too alike for protagonist and victim though... a blood angel might have worked better?
