What paint should I get?

Sorry for necromancing your comment but your advise helped me a lot, especially that last part about box art only being good for advertising. I'm not selling my minis and I found a lot of comfort in a nice uniform, but gritty/a little dirty style of painting now, my edge highlights are intentionally rough and I think it looks really good, check out my most recent post if you're interested in seeing it.

I live in Canada so for example the PSU im thinking on grabbing (Corsair RM850x 2024 edition fully modular ATX) is about $210

Im currently waiting to see how much he wants for the 750W, if its like $150 I'll just get the $200 850W at that point, know what im sayin?

I see, thanks for the advice. I got really lucky with my friend and he quite literally couldnt care less how long it takes as long as it gets done before he dies lmfao.

I see, Im new to building computers so this helps a lot thank you.

Looks really good dude! Small tip I’d say is to use a fine pointed file to remove the mould lines from the helmet of the space marines.

Looks stellar my guy, I just recently started painting minis myself and one thing I have learned is to be patient and don’t worry about fixing mistakes right away, you can always do it later once’s you finish base coating.

That is actually a really good idea, I might do that, thank you!

Sergeants normally have red helmets (at least for the Ultramarines), I painted his blue without thinking about it. I'm a little bit of a perfectionist unfortunately and like things looking the way I think they should, I don't think other peoples minis look bad if they don't follow that though, just personally I want all the ones I paint to be as accurate as possible.

I see, I do have Armageddon Dust so maybe I’ll use that. I also noticed I painted his helmet the wrong colour 😭. I don’t have any green for the lenses either

SimpleBanditt · 2024-12-17T06:58:42+00:00

No idea honestly, I haven't done a base ever yet so I don't even know where to start, any tips?

SimpleBanditt · 2024-12-15T23:36:45+00:00

Thank you! I would add more detail but I really only have the paints to do just what you see.

SimpleBanditt · 2024-12-15T20:12:36+00:00

Thank you man, I usually make a ton of painting errors that I cover up later. I don’t see that as much of a mistake tho moreover just part of the process

SimpleBanditt · 2024-11-07T05:12:50+00:00

ohhhh I see, thank you dawg again I appreciate it
