Bascoating - Airbrush

I’ve had more free time than usual the last week and I’ve put it to good use.  Basecoating is done for the entire army, meaning the majority of the airbrush work is complete.  I’ll be posting up a few updates as I sort though the photos.

The same basic formula was followed, with some variation, for the entire army:  basecoat, highlight, ghost tint, wash, highlight, varnish, done.  It made for a good balance between achieving good results while still being easily repeatable on lots of tiny minis.  The highlights were applied zenithally with an airbrush to maximize contrast (painting 10mm is all about contrast).  Later brushwork will be used to reduce the airbrush look a bit.

Before the models could be painted, they had to be primed.  I airbrushed a basecoat of Vallejo Black Surface Primer followed by a zenithal highlight of Vallejo Grey Surface Primer.  I didn’t go all the way to white because the army will have an overall darker look.

Next up, painting greenlings.
