				<title>What am I doing wrong? - Using pigments </title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hi,<br /> <br /> I just started trying to use AMMO MIG pigments for a Mars "dust" effect on my Black Templars. The first one came out decently. I was a little hard to make it look like the pigment/dust had settled naturally on the model. The second one came out terrible. Here are the steps I follow:<br /> <br /> 1. Using an old paint brush, I transfer pigment onto the model and spread it around.<br /> 2. Using a different paint brush (because the pigment is ALL OVER the other one now), I dip the brush into some Isopropyl Alcohol (94%) / Rubbing Alcohol and dab it onto the model. <br /> <br /> <a href="http://s306.photobucket.com/user/rompa1984/media/IMG_4060.jpg.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn272/rompa1984/IMG_4060.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="http://s306.photobucket.com/user/rompa1984/media/IMG_4059.jpg.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn272/rompa1984/IMG_4059.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> What did I do wrong in this second one? (I may have used an already wet (from being painted with) brush on this last one. Think that would have caused it?)]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ If the brush was wet it can bring out the different colours in some powders. I personally don't bother sealing with alcohol, just give it a light varnish. That way you disturb the powder as little as possible. ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Spray can varnish? Does that not send the pigment flying everywhere? Or do you use something else?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ No, but I have found that using a gloss varnish to do the sealing and then a matt varnish later to flatten the layer works well.<br /> <br /> I do use water rather than alcohol for rust in crevices, but for the dusting the spray varnish seems to work.<br /> <br /> Hope that helps,<br /> <br /> <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(596);'>CB</span> ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Do not apply whatever you are using to set the powders directly to the powders. Apply small amounts of whatever setting agent you are using to clean areas above the powders, and let gravity pull the fluid down into the powders, which will them absorb the fluid. Key word small amount, if you use too much it will make the powders run. Also try using in enamel fixer, like the one sold by Secret Weapons, instead of alcohol. You can apply the powders after you clear your models preventing the sprays from discoloring the pigments.]]></description>
