The brown primer, block paint, wash and selective highlights is now my mainstay. I do hope you like the results at the finish line. And thanks for the shout out too!

I find that it is more difficult to do. The other figures get in the way. This is especially tough for mounts as I use many shades of dry-brushing to make a decently convincing horse. Like you, I normally stick my figures on strips in groups of 3 or 4.

After what you just did I just paint the base equipment, skin, etc. colors. I next dip/wash the models (dip is best). I brush dip on btw. Next day I apply a de-shine and mount to bases. done.<br /><br />The dip is amazing actually, as it will not only get those spots you missed on the model, but it will also make colors less transparent.GM Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11024995107471985545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-72239874531087008532015-04-08T15:49:35.435+09:002015-04-08T15:49:35.435+09:00Looking forward to seeing how these come out!Looking forward to seeing how these come out!Mallius Vanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11017597212038657943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-85002040369613488202015-04-08T12:27:41.286+09:002015-04-08T12:27:41.286+09:0015s all the way, Kev! 15s all the way, Kev!
