>>11215685I did no prep work, just applied the paint directly and see what the fuck happens
then again, this is army painter and it is far better than any other acrylic stuff I have ever used
left is an out of the box part, while the torso is almost fully painted there (I'm missing the leather straps at the sides that hold the halves of the breastplate together)
that blue tone for the chest was the result of mixing just 2 droplets of both the blue and silver in the back. I like it and I will repeat it for the head.
I wanted to get a similar result with the red color, but when I did the same combination I got a weird metallic pink/magenta so i ended up using the bare red
the idea will be to paint everything, give it a black wash (the amount of sculpted detail all over the armor is amazing, but you just don't see anything due to no paint), use clear topcoat and put it together again
