I would be scared to run into that guy in a dark castle.<br /><br />I agree with Rick, a wash would really finish out most of those figures nicely.

In fact, I did the entire Space Hulk 3ed set using the Polyshades Antique Walnut and it turned out splendidly. <br /><br />The problem is the weather. I have no place to dip poly that won't make my house stink to high heaven, and opening the garage door when it's 10 degrees isn't an option :)<br /><br />That, and poly tends to cure too fast in extreme cold, so I shot them with dullkote instead to seal the colors. Just wanted them done, to be honest, and not look like grey/red/white nondescript monsters.<br /><br />Wrath is undergoing a paint job this weekend, I may toss a wash on them, especially the critters like the Otyugh, since they have a lot of abberation figs with cracks and lines on them. As it rests, I'm just drybrushing.<br /><br />Thanks, though!=+=SuperflyTNT=+=https://www.blogger.com/profile/05476110006378606325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5766184212934535803.post-77012380520114292662011-02-08T07:24:46.674-08:002011-02-08T07:24:46.674-08:00Hi Superfly -

I would recommend you check out the "dip method" online -- it's a simple way to apply some wash to your figures to make them stand out. I think you'll be amazed at the results. <br /><br />Happy painting.<br />-RickAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
