Hey all. Creating my own stormhost called the Sunset Templars.
Test mini 2: white primer boogaloo next to test mini 1:the bedrock.
Celestra gray, ulthusn gray, white undercoat and sepia wash made some difference.
Base incoming, as is test mini 3: black primer strikes back as well as test mini 4: 1 shade of grey primer.
Once these test figs are done, I will pick a winning undercoat and continue working. I do have a commission upcoming though, so updates may eventually be sparse for a few weeks.
