http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/56.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net A select few of you will remember me from maybe a month past as a post as many things possible annoying chatty fella, and then most of you will never have heard or even acknowlegded my existence, but ho-hum, best carry onwards.

In the past I've posted threads and articles about a so-called Space Wolf successor of my own devising, the Crimson Claws. But, since those peaceful times my mind has changed several times, it really boggles me . Well, I've gave up the idea of this chapter in order to persue a greater project that has always appealed to me. These pictures posted below are of my current-ish project and please don't mock me or be mean, I'm very new to painting just not to collecting.

Well, hope you enjoy. Please post what you really think just don't be to harsh because this is my first try at it. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2364590.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2364590.page GMT
If you start the models off with the normal black basecoat, then go over again with a tank brush or similar with a thin coat of black, then lightly drybrush with Codex Grey - then do your silver - then wash the whole lot with Badab Black.
That should give you a table-top quality like mine (and thanks for the comments on my Blog )

Skin and hair can be done well with drybrush/wash mix as well, although I've not got the hang of skin myself! Obviously there's better techniques, but I think mine is an easy starting point.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2364821.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2364821.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2365020.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2365020.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2365068.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2365068.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2365276.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2365276.page GMT LOL, yeh sorry about that Imperial Monkey, like I've said I'm new and had difficulty with the pupils so I'm gonna paint them up first then attempt it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2368778.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2368778.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2368863.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2368863.page GMT ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2368872.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2368872.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2369496.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2369496.page GMT ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2373121.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2373121.page GMT

You wanted my honest opinion so here it is. You mentioned that you are new to painting and there is nothing bad in it. Some people wrote that practice is important ant they are right but I will add that the most important thing in painting is having self-esteem to paint and I see you want to do it. As for the painting I think you need more paints and different colors. If you want to paint fast you can use the drybrush technique but in my opinion if you apply your colors clean and then wash them they will look 10 times better so I suggest you go in that direction. I think you should work on dark linking because it helps to distinguish elements of minis and it makes your paintwork clean. So buy some washes and make some experiments in shading with them (I would suggest you to buy Debad Black, Delvian Mud and maybe that wash used for skin).

I hope this will help,
RED

First time I used a wash I had no idea what I was doing and I used too much. Lost alot of color. So just give it a shot and see how it works. Ain't gonna learn if you don't try. (Tell that to my step-son all the time, but it falls on deaf ears.)

I see you dotted the pupils. Very nice. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2378181.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2378181.page GMT IA10) what primer do you use Bunnygurl?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2378429.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/341896/2378429.page GMT GW Black and White spray primer. What color I use depends on the model, ex. white for High Elves, black for Orks.
