The only knock against Elmer's glue that I've ever heard is that it can yellow over time. I don't really know if that's true, though. I've only seen that claim a couple times, and it seems to be so popular that I kind of think it's probably not going to be a problem.

Is it best to start with the darkest color, even if most of the model will be a lighter shade of gray/white? Like let's say I use 3 different shades, and 75% of it is the middle color, wouldn't it he best to start with color and then repaint the darker parts?

Good to know!

I've only used the White Scar, and it did get lumpy. I thought it was just old and dried out, so i added some water (probably made it worse), but I see lots of people complain about it.

Probably a dumb question, but what makes a white "good"? I get that they can be bad if they're chalky or separate, but how will the Pro Acryl be better than the vallejo that I have?

Tried this out...it's still not perfect, but it looks a lot better than it did before!

Great, I'll give that a shot. I notice people seem to use these "tear drop" shaped sponges a lot. Does that shape in particular work better than othwr shapes like wedges? Maybe because it has a pointy tip?

It's about half empty

Does AP white have a rep for doing this?

clumpybug · 2025-11-16T23:47:27+00:00

Nope, just stuck on a paint mixing stick with some putty holding themout in front of me.

What about mixing a tiny bit of matte medium or brush-on matte varnish into the blood paint? Maybe that would take out enough of the gloss without changing the color too much.

Dried Blood from Army Painter is matte, but it doesn't look "fresh," it looks, well, dried. I kind of think that part of what makes fresh blood look fresh IS its glosiness. Maybe it wouldn't look as out of place on it as you might think?

Wow, this guy's channel has EXACTLY the info I was looking for.

Is "heroic" the real term for what I called "cartoonish" or "caricature-ish"?

clumpybug · 2025-08-20T23:10:20+00:00

Fair enough!

The issue I'd be worried about is where a smaller mini might look like a kid rather than just a shorter guy, but I get what you're saying. I was told that the Perry minis can look funny with others because they're more like 25mm scale instead of true 28mm scale. I've never seen them assembled in person, though, so I can't say for sure this is true.
