I love your style. After painting death guard and their chipped up vehicles I think this will be a perfect transition to a new army. I have a question though. Would it be worth using ak worn effect to achieve the chipping? Or is it better to have more control over where the chips are?
@col.festus
@col.festus 16 күн бұрын
So initially used this product, but the chipping was too random and large sometimes. This lead me to having to go back and fix those areas. It became easier to just do the chipping by hand.

@col.festus yeah that's what I thought. Thank you for the reply. I got a bottle of it and finally used it on some vehicles. And I really like it. But I was worried about the small size of the necrons with it. Well good time to try my hand at it more

@col.festus
@col.festus Ай бұрын
Part of the secret is getting a good exposure time locked in. This allows the supports to be removed without leaving large craters. I then use a sonic knife to remove anything remaining. Also soak in very hot water for 1-2 min before removing supports
