Getting Started
This is my first project and I decided to show off, how I painted the Armiger Helverins to become a part of my Space Marines. The models will be painted blue to match the main color of my army. I want them to be seen as a part of that army.
So here is what I am going for:
Airbrush
- Iwata Neo CN
- Wiltec AS189
- Cleaner
- Flow Improver
- Thinner
- Water
My airbrush setup is cheap but exactly what I need. I am using this set since a year now and it does all I need so far.
Brushes
- Winsor & Newton Series7 in 2, 3 and 4
- Da Vinci Harbin Kolinsky in 1
- Any drybrush
The Winsor & Newton Brushes I use are more expensive then the typical Army Painter and Citadel ones. But it turned out to be a good investment if one can take care. For the this project, I mainly use number 2. I switch to number 4 when it comes to the base and large areas on the model are painted with a number 3.
Miscellaneous
- Cork
- Army Painter Highland Tuft
Tool specific settings
- The pressure I use with all my paints while brushing is about 20 psi
- The needle of the Iwata Neo CN has 0.35 mm
Techniques I am using in this project
- Airbrushing
- Blending
- Layering
- Drybrushing
- Edge Highlighting
Remember to thin your paints and keep them flowy for a better result when painting.
