This shot didn't make it into the set because of space constraints. Here it is in it's entirety: how to undercoat gold metallic with regular paint to give an even tone and brightness.

Kublacon mini! <3 (I *love* that con!)

[HotLeadMini]

@Nekona Yup! Best con in California (probably the West Coast too.) Stop by and say hi. I'll be teaching some classes there.

So???looks cooler when it looks worn out.....Besides Warhammer SUCKS!!!!!

buy lord of the rings miniatures instead

[HotLeadMini]

@FanLastchaosFan My original reply got deleted. Hmmm...

To each his own, but just FYI:

1) The mini is from Kublacon in CA, not Warhammer.

2) GW popularized worn-out armor for - guess what - Warhammer.

3) GW makes LOTR minis.

4) LOTR armies, except evil ones, maintain their armor.

5) Worn-out armor will fail (aka kill) the wearer. No knight wore rusty armor into battle.

6) It took you 4 attempts to state your succinct argument... ;^)

@FanLastchaosFan that is actually warhammer lord of the rings

I'm definately going to look into buying the DVD box set - just watching your blending tutorial (the cloak) has given me a little bit more confidence, and I aim to try it out. I just have one small question though:- you obviously use reaper paints, is there a conversion list of these as I use Vallejo and Citadel?

@FanLastchaosFan Dude, have you seen LOTR miniatures??? The molds are awful and are made for kids, they do no justice to the characters/creatures that Tolkien created. The 40K models are MUCH more detailed and MUCH more fun to paint/look at.

so???? looks cooler when its looks worn out! stupid
