@onlyonepinman, great stuff, how are you finding the airbrush so far?
@evilstu, funny you should ask.. in the last 24 hours i’ve been playing with masking, i’ve got some Humbrol Mask liquid, which I tried..
As the plan is to experiment a bit i’m trying masking on these little scuttlings, I don’t think in general it’s a good choice to mask them, but it served my test purposes.. So first I tried priming for the first time with Vallejo primer through the airbrush (that’ll be important later), which seemed to go well. then I sprayed some green and then applied the mask, which is a purple liquid…
I then overbrushed with black and grey and removed the mask, two things became apparent:
1. The Mask worked well even with thin coats
2. It sometimes took paint off the layer below when I removed it.
Talking to another painter, apparently the Vallejo primer requires some time to fully cure, and I painted straight over it about 2 mins after it was dry. So hopefully that’s why this is happening, that’s further borne out by me having chipped another model I primed at the same time already. Ho-hum.
I also sprayed some more little daemons, but when the paint dried they didn’t have the contrast I wanted:
So I went back in again to really try and push them..
That’s all for now,I feel like i’m learning a lot which is great. Back to work tomorrow sadly so progress will slow I imagine!
