So here is my question Dakka. To achieve the white upon this model while still keeping with a gritty boltgun/chainmail color should I primer grey? I know that a white primer would be the lazy way out but I'm afraid the silver will not cover that. Also I'm trying to avoid the painful layering to white with the black primer, so has anyone had any luck with the more neutral grey primers?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517062.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517062.page GMT Order of the Argent Shroud painting quesiton http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517069.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517069.page GMT Order of the Argent Shroud painting quesiton

I was afraid of that, but I agree. I could attempt to wash the silver down but from my experience it just does not want to cover over anything that isn't black. And that goes for GW, Vallejo and PP]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517099.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517099.page GMT Order of the Argent Shroud painting quesiton http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517187.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517187.page GMT Order of the Argent Shroud painting quesiton GW line for metallics would be just as good (I've had zero luck with other brands of metallics other than Coat D Arms, the original GW paints).

The white I did with foundation grey, then a lighter grey, then up to white. I haven't used, but suspect ceramite white would work well for this, I've heard it covers well.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517285.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/521592/5517285.page GMT
