What unconventional painting methods have you guys used, and how did they work out?
I had an odd idea today... painting my Khorne models with blood. Obviously I would need the blood to be clean, and I assume you can get some from a butcher? How would this hold up over time? Would the red/brown look good, or just dirty? Has anybody tried this before?

Not sure if trolling or not but, it's not safe or recommended.

Ok, so the general consensus seems that it isn't a good idea. Thanks! I'm always trying to explore new options, but if it's not a good idea, well then I won't do it.

Sorry to say this; but that is a ridiculous idea... there are plenty of awesome ways to paint bloodlike effects which don't include potentially dangerous materials. Look at Tamiya's clear red and GW's new blood for the blood god paint

The main problem with using blood as part of a medium is that it will not last like paint does.
