The uncontrollable urges continue to distract me from painting Rogue Trader Guardsmen (I want to paint 30 by end of year). This time I was struck by the urge to use my airbrush to paint a vehicle:
That failed dismally because I couldn’t figure out the right ratio of thinner to paint, leaving the model… wet. Very wet.
Once it dried (overnight) I brought it to the painting desk and did it with drybrushes.
Although, I tried out a few new techniques while I was at it: I used marking tape to do the big stripe, and I tried sponge weathering. Sponge weathering is awesome! I see why people recommend it.
Technically, this is a rhino, although I originally built it to serve as an Aurox proxy for Solar Auxilia - although I’m not really focussing on SA at the moment? I’m not sure what’s going on with that though.
Anyway, riding that wave, I built another 2 rhinos and will (maybe) paint them soon. Maybe.
One off the pile.
BATG Score: -8
