Hey everyone, I was just curious if anyone had any REALLY good ideas on painting frost blades, or even just getting that really cool blue/white electrified look to come out, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

May I ask if this is something that would interest you?

Thanks, but in my quest to find vids on the subject, I ran across both of those Vids. I ended up finding out a pretty decent method for doing them after all. Thanks though!

The guy in the middle has my frost blade.



Its just a matter of blending your blues and white. I used stippling (lots of single dots) to get this effect. I used the "lightning" type effects for power weapons (they are also red in my army). I've never had any confusion.
