edonil Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Alright, obligatory line of questions: What kind of paints are you using? What colors for the Tron themes? What colors do you have for this theme? Have you tried drybrushing yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Heh, it's true, a running ordnance tech outranks everyone. And it's a good idea to join his very quickly! Sounds like a good game of infinity Ed, one day I'll have to play it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I'm sure we'll be able to get in some games at Gencon if nothing else, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Also, mmmm tasty food. Potatoes, scrambled eggs, ham, mushrooms. All fried up together for that comfort food effect! And I'd say that tron isn't necessarily the easiest thing to paint, the thin glow lines will require a bit of work and care. Nothing too strenuous, and should Look good though.

edonil Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 And who knows, I might actually have my ALEPH assembled by then... >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Heh, that would involve me painting aleph too. Which might happen, you never know! ---------- Post added at 02:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 AM ---------- Or indeed, pinching yours. Lol.

edonil Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Man, that alcohol is moving right along. O.o I'm impressed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Yeah, it hits the top stuff really fast. It gone rubbery and blister like? You can scrub off the worst of it and chuck it back in if you want, can speed the process up a bit. I think the shortest I ever soaked for was an hour, but the older the paint the longer it takes to get it to loosen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Honestly, I'm hoping I'll be in the mood for painting some gaming stuff once I get done with Monique. I think I did another poor choice for my Ten Thunders...forgot how much I hate painting black. Or grey. Just a very fussy color for some reason.... >.< ---------- Post added at 09:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 PM ---------- Um. I don't know if it has. All I know is the alcohol is more purple than clear, lol. I'm leaving it in for the duration of work at least, honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Ah, that'll be the top layers (especially washes and such) getting lifted off. Later on it tends to look like the paint has swelled a bit, like a blister, then when you touch it it's rubbery sludge and falls off easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I'm probably not going to be able to see that...she's at the bottom of a 4 inch Pringles can, lol.

Mako Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Heh, always a tricky problem!

Mako Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I have kana, English and Swedish on my ipad keyboard for some reason. I think I loaded them at one point for a laugh.
