Test for a lava base |
Since it was only a quick test for working with the 0,2mm needle and how much pressure I need for the different layers, it is OK. I now know how to do things for my Chaos Dwarves. First I have to use real bases or some MDF or some plastic card as base, then I'll have to prime everything black and drybrush the stones and THEN the airbrush comes into use. Think this will work much better.
And I'm really scared by the amount of work this will be *looks in fear to his Skaven, Dark Elves and Chaos Dwarves* :)
Different view for the test |
As my wife saw me airbrushing, she gave me a ingenious hint: I should cover the "lava" with some transparent nail polish. This sounds so weird... I HAVE to try this out!
That's it for now. Over and Out!

Very nice. I have been meaning to give this a try too. Mixing in some white layers and lightly blending it into the yellow might make some of the lightest areas really pop. Any gloss varnish could be painted on the help with the "wet" look. The painting on these should go faster when you are doing them as a production line.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment and your hints :)
DeleteActually I did blend in a white line (blending with the airbrush is luckily very easy) but I think you're right, it could "pop" a bit more. I also want to make some bubbles etc. As said I'm testing around at the moment.
P.S.: I tried the nail polish and it works like a gloss varnish in the end :)
