So i saw some tutorials on youtube of using sharpie metallics on models with decent effects. I tried it on regualr 25 mm figures on the trim and it turned out surprisingly good using the sharpie bronze followed by the gold. The issue is, there is no real “shading” so was wondering on thoughts on maybe going back over the marker with maybe retributor basecoat armor for shading and seraphim sepia as a wash to blend it better? It coats the models amazingly fast but is really hard shading smaller trim that are not tanks. If anyone has tried it please post pics of successes/ fails/ what not to do. Much appreciated!

Sometimes risks are worth rewards for when painting an entire army. Warplock bronze followed by bronze sharpie and gold, with minimal highlight of silver sharpie.
