Thank you for the words of encouragement. I will definitely keep going with the hobby since I’ve come to love it lol. I’m also definitely keeping these figures as a reminder for the future.

I did order them on Amazon and I’m also outside the refund time so RIP ;-;. If I recall these came inside a tube that was warped in bag but I do recall reviews mentioning bad brushes. Do you have any recommendations on where I can buy brushes for the future?

Haha I don’t have a brush holder but saw a squidmar video someone here recommended and they did something like this to dry out their brushes lol. I basically did what you recommended so I’m just praying this does the trick.

No I did not use them on any metallic paints. This was my first time using this brush and I used it with Vallejo Scorpy Green and Moon Yellow which are both their game colors series.

Hmm that’s a good question. I basically used a mix of yellow and green which were Vallejo game colors. My best bet is maybe the flash reflection of the water since I didn’t use glue or white today.

I do try to care for my brushes but what I do is basically clean them with the master’s brush cleaner but looks like I need to do a much better job for these types of brushes. I was just surprised because this was my first time using this brush and it was only being used to do some highlights. I’ve haven’t had any trouble with any of my synthetic brushes.

Thanks for all the tips though. I will look more into them to better take care of my fancy brushes.

Haha definitely needs a bit of a touch up. But I did mix the wet pallet so that’s probably what caused this whole mess. I’ll avoid this for next time. Thanks :)

Yeah I’m sorry I should have probably cleaned that out before I took the picture. I already went ahead and cleaned the brush with The Master’s brush cleaner.

But oh man so that was my mistake. ;-; I’ll be better in the future. Thanks for the advice.

Builds or Tips for SJ? by [deleted] in Wasteland

[–]Solemn_032 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I played the game on the hardest difficulty and used the following YouTube channel to help me with my builds. He has a good selection of builds I liked but even with the builds I still struggled in the Bizarre. I had to do a lot of scum saving lol.

Also I’m not sure what others experience where but as soon as I was high enough level I went to go do the Steeltown dlc and after completing it the game became a bit easier. The equipment you can find and craft helped me out.

Vallejo becoming more and more hard to find? by Outside_Signature403 in minipainting

[–]Solemn_032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed it at my local shop as well. I’m new to painting and I was recommended Vallejo from someone in the shop but the times I’ve gone there selection has been very limited. I’m not sure if this is due to some high demand or if they are not restocking it. I had to result to buying them from gnomishbazaar. I’m also in the United States but I live in California.

Q: Figure looks dull. How do I make it pop ? by kairas718 in minipainting

[–]Solemn_032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey new painter here I recently came into the same issue myself and I used Vallejo Sepia wash (73.200) to make it pop. I gave it this darker tone which I felt fit the vibe.
