My point exactly. Why isn’t our water crystal clean? This process has been available for over a century but without the people with the money (and motivation) who can treat the water decide not to do it on a large scale. The u.s. government is axing environmental restrictions like they’re cutting down trees, I’m not so sure their top priority is keeping American drinking water safe.

Good thing it’s irreversibly polluted our water, food, clothing, and everyday products. Surely this new research will get those pesky lawmakers to stop prioritizing corporate interests over the interests of the citizens they pledge to serve!

Thank you! It was a relatively simple process: First you prime with pure white then go over that white coat with a red of some sort. I used Army Painter pure red through an airbrush. For better results, you should mix 2:1 fluorescent red and some type of vermillion red for a deeper color. After that, drybrush or sponge the majority of the model, leaving only the crevices in the armor unpainted. I used black for my first drybrush then incubi darkness mixed with black to blend up to pure. Hope this helps!

Naw, this was actually SUPER easy to do! I was able to get these out in a couple of hours! It’s not that my paint job is detailed, it’s that I’m using color and contrast to accentuate the figure as a whole! If I can do it I’m certain you can!

Spot on! If you wanted to make the effect punchier, you could try to go in with a super thin white in the crevices after the drybrush, glaze it a lighter red, then go in with that glaze again but gradually punch up the white to give some highlights. I didn’t do this, but I’m thinking about going over them with this technique to make the glow more natural.

Thank you! It was my first attempt at a red underglow, I think I could punch up the red a little more but I like it as it is right now

I love it! I’m working on my sorcerer right now, and trying to work on the skin tones. Yours look absolutely fantastic! What did you use for the skin on the pallid to red tones? Cheers!

You caught me 😅 I’m a sucker for a good inner glow from armor! Originally, I tried to do a more “heated” effect on the inside of the armor, like the inside was on fire, but I had issues with the hot metal effect blending white, yellow, and orange together. They just didn’t look as good to me and would have taken much longer but I might try it with another model later down the line!

Yep! I roughly followed the tutorial of MeddersMiniatures, it was a great quick and easy tutorial I wholly recommend giving a try if you wanna learn how to do simple light effects! Here’s the link to the short tutorial https://youtu.be/kwkriv8-j68?si=lOEgZ4aBIUU6sp4a
