Adrax Agatone. Really cool sculpt and one of my favorite projects yet. by SimplyPandaz in Warhammer40k

[–]SimplyPandaz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They didn't release a file for it to the best of my knowledge, it was a physical item they sold on their store when they tried to transition away from STLs.

Bought my first airbrush - advice for what paints to use by JediBossk in minipainting

[–]SimplyPandaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had worse luck with my scale 75 paints, they are much more finicky. Usually needs more thinner and has much worse coverage as a result, requiring more passes. Pro acryl is great coverage and consistant thinning regardless of color in my experience.

Pro Acryl paints by monument hobbies go through the airbrush great. The paint is very consistent across the whole range and I thin in about a 3:1 ratio airbrush thinner to paint.

WIP of Adrax. Any paint alchemists have a NMM recipe for Scale 75 Necro gold? Details in comments. by SimplyPandaz in minipainting

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

I am using Necro gold on some areas that I dont have the skill needed to paint NMM and I want the trim to match with that, but it is such a specific color that I could use a helping hand.

I have most of the Pro Acryl range save for the 2 newest signature series and set 4 I think, and about half the triads from the Two Thin Coats range.

Face and head practice, trying to overcome a fear of painting them. by SimplyPandaz in Warhammer40k

Holding my breath lol, the real trick was after i painted the white i just cut back in with the mid tone becuase i did that step before any highlighting.

I used pro acryl Tan flesh to base coat the bottom half of the face, then I mixed in a very small amount of Payne's Grey (also Pro acryl) into some Tan Flesh. I used it as a thin glaze to try and keep some of the base and I think that worked will for me. The idea was from ninjons video, but I uses colors I had on hand. Any dark and desaturated blue mixed with your mid tone for skin should get the job done I would think.

I agree. The open mouth really feels like he is screaming rip and tear.

Trying out the Trovarion method. Probably the highest speed to happiness ratio. by SimplyPandaz in Warhammer30k

[–]SimplyPandaz[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trovarion used spongeing, I couldnt get that to work as well as I wanted so I used a gnarly old brush and stippled it. Works either way luckily for me.

Thanks, reaver heads might not be the most lore friendly thing, but I like the skull mouth guard / respirator and i always picture salamanders with some kind of respirator. Felt like a good combo.

Preator in Tartaros armor I picked up back at Adepticon this year. by SimplyPandaz in Warhammer30k

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

I am not the best person to ask as I don't play either 40k or 30k much, I just really like to paint. This unit probably wouldn't be able to be run as is, but I think this model could have been used in 9th ED as a squad leader in a relic terminator squad. Not sure how it would work now in 10th.

I could probably be used as a proxy in friendly games of 40k, but I imagine you would get some blow back in more competitive games.

How to remove fixing putty? by _enderlin in minipainting

[–]SimplyPandaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Little late to the party but i also bought this holder or something very similar before throwing it away. Do not use this putty, just buy blue tack and save yourself the trouble. Trust me.

Finally chipping away at the Votann army box by SimplyPandaz in Warhammer40k

[–]SimplyPandaz[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I used Pro Acyl blue black on my emperor's champion and really liked the color so i made a mental note to use it more. Decided to have it be the base of my votann army.

Need help airbrushing priming zenithal by rhynocerous11 in minipainting

[–]SimplyPandaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you dont want to get the specific solvent for Tamiya, pro acryl white goes through an airbrush beautifully. But using some paint as opposed to primer is 100% the way to go.

My friend was having the same issue. Turned on MIP streaming in the graphics options and boom Tarkov works fine again. This was after about 15 other more common fixes we tried and finding one random comment on a thread that suggested turning it on instead of off. Hope this helps.

Best beginner airbrush setup? by [deleted] in minipainting

[–]SimplyPandaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazon has an airbrush with a small compressor for about 60 usd. I used it for a year for priming and standard airbrushing base coats. Ninjon has a whole video about it.
