"scoop" some out with an old brush onto a tile.

I bought a tile for $1.08 at Homedepot and it is great for mixing inks and paints. I also use a cheap and old brush from an art store that was less tahna dollar to "scoop" and stir inks and mixed paints

I may be able to do one *sooner or later* I have alot of irons in the fire currently..... the trick is when you apply CM put it on thick *make sure its a new bottle, seems to have a short shelf life* also make sure the cover paint is thick *after all... i hope your not using it on detailed stuff!*

no i did it on a bike (i'm gonna keep that one as is) and on my ts sorcerer i'm working on. all the cracks came out looking good if you were about 6 inches from the model so i just painted over it to what is looks like in my wip now.

i'll try doing it thicker on the cm and top coat on the next one. it sounds cool and really want to see if i can get it right. i'm thinking i might do it on one of my obliterators next in the flesh areas. that or on an old rhino i'm doing up for my 1000 sons army. i'll try to do a painting wip on it if i can. we'll see.

thanks

No worries, my hairy pal. It will be awhile before I start painting anyway.

ok guys, this is just a bump to remind y'all that this thing is still going and we still have a lot of subjects we could cover. so if any of you are lucky enough to have some time off over the holidays and find yourselves with nothing to do... hint hint

DK, i know i still haven't done that BL thing. i'll try to get something sorted out tonight.

Sorry Hairy I have had a busy time, but I stand by Gems, eye pieces, and sealing.

We need someone to step up and do a flesh tut. I know this is the trickiest area, but I think it's a gap that needs plugging.

I paint Eldar flesh and rarely as most of my models wear helmets. I think my flesh is OK, but it's a bit unorthodox as I tend to mix my own stuff, and i have no science to it!

Blood Angels style deep red armor
Highlighting metallics (primarily gold)
Painting IG style camo
Painting cammo onto vehicles
Painting lens (like on gun scopes)

That's some of the ones I can think of that i'd like to see.

I can do a flesh tutorial maybe. I like to think that I paint flesh pretty well.

I'd like to see some layering tutorials and lens would be helpful too.

Could you do a step x step on that camo?

As for eyes, I have a trick that will help the shakiest of hands!
