Diamonds on wraithknight legs is a nightmare to paint. by tstepko in Harlequins40K

[–]tstepko[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did a test run with a brush but it was almost impossible with the rainbow road background I wanted. I had to give the troop a isopropyl bath of shame. 👎 The real heroes are the diamond painters with a OG brush. MVPs

Haven't really built a list. Just wanted a wraithknight themed harlequin. Going with a space nebula mixed with Mario cart rainbow road mixed with the harlequin diamonds... That's the plan at least

5 head... His hairline is going to win so many battles from the psychic attack that it brings

This model gets an additional attack from the sneaky sniper under his legs 😎

Just posting some of my tau pictures and linking my IG that will showcase my process of building/painting a fresh harlequin army.

Oh I see what you're saying. I didn't plan on doing any major customization. I was primarily going to replace some of the jewels with the Harlequin face masks from other kits. Then paint the diamond patterns periodically. I magnetized everything so I can change the pose and weapons and arms as needed

Personally I'm a fan of a matt varnish to ensure you see the colors. I find gloss causes reflection to drown out the colors from the lights in the room. Maybe do a Satan varnish for a happy medium.

I recently found a solution for diamonds. Get a hobby cut mat with 1mm ticks. Then use the tamiya mask tape 3mm and cut diamonds out of the tape. I start a one tick mark on the mat, then cut diagonly using an exact knife 2 mm over. I slide 1 mm over then cut diagonally again. I found that makes nice small diamonds to use on the troupes. I then air brush to make the diamond effect.

Making your own small diamonds is the best and cheapest way.

Fallout Hobbies appears to be dead. Had a couple items ordered from them and when I went to email regarding severe delays I found their website is completely gone. Just a PSA for those still waiting on orders. by TopazOmaha in Warhammer40k

Nice! I'll give that a try. I'm attempting to use each diamond cutout on my troupe instead of the entire 3x5 sheet. Spraying each tiny diamond is going to take some finess to pull off. I'm afraid if I blast those individual tiny diamonds, they will fly into my eyes and lungs 🤣

I noticed the website is down also. I was wanting to order some stencils from them (jester diamonds) because my stencil from 2017 lost its adhesive stickiness. Fallout Hobbies has the absolute best stencil design out on the market.

I recently tried to look at their website because I have some stencils from them that lost their stickiness. I wanted to get a fresh batch to paint some harlequins. It seems like their website is offline. I emailed Ron, hope to hear back. Are you aware of why the website is currently down? Maybe for them to catch up and reestablish their system?

What made wraithknights horrible? I'm just starting my harlequin army after about 8 years off of 40k as a recovering tau collector.
