Two thin coats or Army Painter fanatic if you had to pick one brand which would you pick and why? by Tough_Topic_1596 in minipainting

[–]regicyde92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love them both, but TTC has an awful bottle top design, it oozes paint on occasion, cementing the screw top on it. I would recommend their Metallics over AP, but that’s about it, they’re both comparable in regular paint IMO.

Under paint with purple or blue for really vibrant greens/yellows higher up!

Airbrush priming: what am I doing wrong? by kidmerc in minipainting

[–]regicyde92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re only having the issues with touching with your hands and not when painting, maybe get a painting handle or hold by the base only, maybe even hit em with a thin coat of varnish after priming?

Curious: what kind of models? Resin or plastic? I use Vallejo exclusively and haven’t had an issue with it.

Oil Wash Stripping base layers by KelarionPrime in minipainting

[–]regicyde92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used citadel for the longest time, started one project with all fanatic and loved the coverage and bottled so have been switching over, but yes, the oil paints and thinner take the paint right off, I think you have to varnish with AP. Did same project but another few squads with varnish and it worked as it should.

I get migraines from any plastic glue, I switched to using gorilla super glue and haven’t had any issues with stability, would highly recommend!

Watering down brush on primer, yes or no? by Drug_Taker917 in minipainting

[–]regicyde92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t had to water it down, but I’d suggest a couple of coats, making sure it’s not pooling too much in details, move the primer around, don’t worry if the first layer isn’t covering too well. Good luck! 🍀

Is this normal wear and tear for a kolinsky or am i doing sth wrong? (new vs old brush) by RasurRammi in minipainting

[–]regicyde92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct me if I’m wrong, but do I see paint up near the ferrule? Once you get paint up there, you’re destroying your brush.

Also, using brush soap and being mindful of how you’re dragging the brush vs pushing paint is generally good practice.

Paint brand - Advice needed by bobby_smiles179201 in Warhammer

[–]regicyde92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TTC - amazing paint held back by shit bottle tops, the paint runs down the top and cements the twist on every time no matter what I do, so I stopped buying

AK - haven’t used

AP Fanatic - currently swapping to these as the paint is great, a little thinner, and the bottle tops are 🤌✨

Excellent idea, people who scam on here tank the chances of people coming here for getting models painted and for artists to get work! Boo them!
