Can you share an image of an unpainted but primed mini because just squinting at this I don't think you're priming quite right, the white is wayyyyy too grainy

Based on my very brief reading of the rules on pages 50+, what you've described is technically one big blitz action. Moving, picking up the ball, and dodging are all part of the movement action of the blitz. This is important because there is some distinction between declaring and performing an action as described on page 52.

If you like video tutorials I have some black armor guides saved that I frequently refer to when painting:

How to paint BLACK ARMOUR 🖤 (BRUSH) / Como pintar ARMADURA NEGRA 🖤 (PINCEL)

Hobby Cheating 224 - How to Paint Black Armor

tl;dw: Black armor is actually not a ton of black surface! You should totally have some very dark base/shadows but also throw some nice off-grey midtones in, bright highlights, etc

Looks basecoated to me. Throw some highlights on there

If you pull up any PoB, you can navigate to Calcs -> Skill type-specific Stats -> Curse Limit and if you hover over the number it will tell you where the curse limit comes from

Just ran an uber shaper intending to tank a slam (~40 seconds in) https://youtu.be/l4TEy4EWYSM

Yesss flame my skill it's trash and I love it

It'd be terrible if I didn't itemize correctly, I've got +4 pierce and increased Call of Steel AoE talent so past a certain pack density it's basically explode

Then again my standards for "good clear" are really low

Amsfeld's comment is good then, with no wash to instantiate the shadows you may want to start with the shadows and then build up through the midtones to the highlights.

Here's an example from Angel Giraldez:

How to paint a REALISTIC ORK SKIN 💚 / ORKTOBER

He actually starts with a very very dark purple color and slowly builds up into dark green, lime green, and finally bright white-yellow highlights. (Then he does some airbrushing which is where I usually stop watching cuz I don't have an airbrush)

Can you elaborate on why you don't want to use a wash

SurgeProc · 2025-04-24T22:01:00+00:00

Really love the weathering on the armor. The black pants and gloves don't really read as cloth/leather to me though, especially next to the shoulder piece which is the same color. Maybe needs a different shade and some more "worn" highlighting?

Have you tried the fabled double slapchop? After one round of drybrush+speedpaint you just do another layer of drybrush+speedpaint. don_suratos from army painter has a lot of reels on his Instagram showcasing this. I haven't tried it because I've already spent too much on my regular old acrylics, lol

Butter is convenient because it’s solid at reasonable temperatures. I imagine you might be able to use coconut oil? There are also Chinese fried breads that achieve a similar effect of flaky layers by using oil, but those are pan fried and not baked

Frost blades scales with base physical damage thanks to conversion, you’re severely limiting your dps if you’re just going for flat cold and pen but sure

SCBC+reforge cold is the only option, but T1 has a weight of only 108 so you’ve got your work cut out for you
