My question is this.. Is it worth me using a blue foundation paint as midnight blue is already a really dark blue or should I not bother with foundation as necron abyss foundation is pretty much the same shade as midnight blue? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5231920.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5231920.page GMT Re:Foundation paint question. OOP paints there.
Foundation paints are out of production for almost a year now, Midnight Blue maybe 5 years.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5232735.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5232735.page GMT Re:Foundation paint question. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5232791.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5232791.page GMT Foundation paint question. lol, I stopped painting for a long while.. How come they stopped Foundations? I know people that rant about how useful they are..

@Johnno: I do have Vallejo Game Color paints now, I've actually got the Night Blue.

So you think it's not worth using Foundation then as it's virtually the same colour as the Night Blue I'm using for my colour scheme?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5232884.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5232884.page GMT Foundation paint question.

I wouldn't bother with them from the simple standpoint of them being out of production. If you want an out of production paint then start hunting down Midnight Blue, otherwise I'd just say stick with Night Blue. Or if you want to swap to GW, then go for Kantor Blue. On top of becoming hard to find I personally don't feel that foundation paints are any better than regular acrylics, some are even worse because they smell awful.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5232907.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5232907.page GMT Re:Foundation paint question. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5234875.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5234875.page GMT Foundation paint question.

GW is weird like that, the foundation paints are now called "bases." They're basically the same, but either slightly off-colour or totally off-colour from the old ones and renamed.

You could also buy Cote D'arms paint, as they used to make GW's paint before they started Citadel. They still produce many of the old, old paints you might have, like Midnight Blue.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5235458.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/504109/5235458.page GMT
