Process

Undercoating

I started off priming all the miniatures with Vallejo Grey Surface Primer (70.601) using an airbrush, priming and vehicles being about the limit of my airbrushing skills so far.

I’d considered purchasing a can of Citadel Grey Seer primer up but couldn’t justify the cost for a handful on miniatures, if the Tau force starts to expand I might pick on up.

This went pretty smoothly I also used the Citadel painting handle to make managing the miniatures a bit easier. I need to get better at cleaning the airbrush though as i had some trouble with the paint flow and the primer was drying pretty fast too.

Once these where dry I applied a thin coat of Citadel Grey Seer across them all using a brush.

I love the tone of the Vallejo grey primer but like yourself have trouble with it now and again through the airbrush, especially compared to their black and white primers.
