Those turned out very nice - a literal turd polish there! I do love Tau - I keep wanting to buy some but I have a massive pile of unpainted stuff already and I don't own WH40k |

They’re pretty good value, models per box wise. Treat yourself |

Current WIP (badly photographed) is a set of stone walls that I sort of wish I hadn't started (the amount of bloody lines I had to score into the styrofoam drove me mad, and then realised I needed a bunch more) Attachment: IMG_3350.jpg

Those drones look great with lemon piping! I've got about 5,000 points of T'au knocking around that I was supposed to paint up as Vior'la, but time time time. Have you got a Shieldline? They can be so unfair it starts being funny. |

No shield line*, just my sons Start Collecting Box set. He built them then were left for ages after I primed them so I've started chipping away at them for him. Very therapeutic to paint *yet |

Are they the magic ones that highlight and shade for you as you paint? |
Author: | Zardoz [ Fri Nov 08, 2019 10:49 ] |
Post subject: | Re: Tabletop wargaming - nerdlinging to the max... |
Yeah, kind of. They pool like washes in the recesses but cover flat areas better than a wash. So more of a paint + shade rather than highlight. |
Author: | Dimrill [ Fri Nov 08, 2019 17:36 ] |
Post subject: | Re: Tabletop wargaming - nerdlinging to the max... |
The experiments I did with is over undercoat were underwhelming at best. It pools in pooling places where pools aren't wanted to pool. Pool. Through an airbrush I got a decent base for my Alpharius, so I think I'll keep them for that purpose. |

Post subject: | Re: Tabletop wargaming - nerdlinging to the max... |
Well, hopefully mine will be magic like Grim... mentioned. |
Author: | MrChris [ Fri Nov 08, 2019 22:57 ] |
Post subject: | Re: Tabletop wargaming - nerdlinging to the max... |
I vaguely remember reading that the undercoat had quite an effect on how well the Contrast paints work. Hence their special undercoat being horribly expensive... |
