Da Big Baws Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 (edited) I have a Dawf army for Warhammer Fantasy. I am handicapped and can't hold a mini well enough to paint. So my brother graciously paints my stuff. Here is my army's centerpiece, the Anvil od Doom!

Baron Phlegm Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Well he's doing a good job for you. Am a dip sceptic, but it's worked very well here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Big Baws Posted May 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Well he's doing a good job for you. Am a dip sceptic, but it's worked very well here. Many people are. But honestly, it isn't far off from using Games Workshop washes like Devlin mud, etc. that many swear by. It is fast and simple: both good qualities for painting big armies, specially when the painter is doing his own plus other's . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntiZombie Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 Looks like the results the dip promises. Do you have any more examples of this? I think it looks like it is a nice quick way to go from meh to tabletop quality . BTW looks good, nice and clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoeRender Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 yeah for things like fantasy battle , dipping can be a huge help . you can always go back to re highlight if needed . Or when you have time . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Big Baws Posted May 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) By the way, the dip was brushed on and not "dipped". It is less messy, you have no waste, and gives you more control.Looks like the results the dip promises. Do you have any more examples of this? I think it looks like it is a nice quick way to go from meh to tabletop quality . BTW looks good, nice and clean. Sure thing. Here are two Grudge throwers, first pic is pre dipping: Edited May 12, 2011 by Da Big Baws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absolution Black Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 Always good to see another fellow Dawi. And those are some beautifully painted minis, kudos to your brother! So do you have a large army or just starting out? I really need to get back to painting mine, but I have far too many and it just depresses me how much effort it will take!

I got about 2500-2700pts worth, about 60% painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
