Mix 1 part red paint to 3 parts copydex adesive together well and apply to the desired area, Flicking wiht toothbrush can aslo give a blood splattererd effect.
i use the foundation paint red and drag it from the blade edge to about the middle of the bland along the length of the blade , then i do the same again with blood red but make sure not to cover all of the base coat of red as this makes it look like its starting to dry
Evil Clown has a great method. I think it’s something like Blood Red, Brown Ink, Black Ink and maybe Scab Red, but applied individaully, not as a mix, lol.
For blood I use Tamiya Clear Red. You don’t need to mix it up or something, you can use it just out of the pot. It looks like this: http://chaos-dwarfs.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=6867 Sometime I also mix Scab Red with Cestnut Ink, it looks like crusted blood, pretty nice…
Thanks guys - lots of good advice. Knew it would be a good idea asking here.
I’ll run a few tests and see what I like best - But think I’ll go for some with a gloss effect. Have heard that Clear Red Tamiya-thing before. I’ll try to dig that up somewhere at eBay - so I can try that out, too.
Tamiya Clear Red is sold in pretty much any model store worldwide. Its not hard to get. Also, you really need to use it over red paint, otherwise it will look like strawberry sauce.
To those suggesting just painting red on something: use GW Scab Red and while its still wet, dab thinned black into it, maybe a bit of brown. Let dry, then put your Tamiya Clear Red on top. Blood is dark and nasty when outside of a body…
