http://www.fatdragongames.com/fdgfiles/?p=4869 I got these printed by someone for $1.50 each. When I get my own printer, get it dialed in, etc (planned for after the move in august) thry should be under 50 cents per model
Sorry to beat a dead horse, @Lord-Marcus. I double checked the video from MiniWargaming. They actually used Sabarite Green and brushed the gold over it. Here's the link to the video if you're interested in seeing how they used it. About 2:25 into the video.
@NIGHTBRINGER I'm not needed here, you have sorted it out between yourselves. @Lord-Marcus Still a bit too much shade going on but miles better than before
I noticed that too. I'm assuming it's a half-bad can of primer. Not super worried about it honestly as these are front-line troops
Not bad, but I would highlight (with bronze) the raised areas. The oxidation would likely be rubbed/worn off of these raised bits and reside purely in the recesses.
@Lord-Marcus Remember less is more with Verdi as pointed out by @NIGHTBRINGER you need to drybrush over with the base and highlight colour.
Yup. When I get home from an interview today I'm going to go over these and the revenants again. Touch ups galore
For whom it may concern Step 1: primer Step 2: Vallejo Beasty brown on stave of halberd and boot Step 3: get mephiston red on all cloth Step 4: Vallejo brassy brass on halberd head Step 5: Vallejo gunmetal on chest plate Step 6: Vallejo sombre grey on rock Step 7: Vallejo Bonewhite, touch up bones Step 8: full model Vallejo sepia shade wash. Step 9: GW niklah oxide on bronze Final step: Final highlights, brassy brass and gunmetal.
I'll be honest: The visible layers would be a no-go for me. As long as affordable printers cannot produce layers small enough that shade doesn't settle in there I wouldn't do that. Granted, they probably look better in real life on the tabletop, a few feet away. Still... IMO not worth it. Yet.
It's all down to settings. I've seen a $200 printer get extremely small layer lines. I don't know what settings this guy used but I'm not bothered by it.
Oh there are definitely printers around that can produce very fine layers. In the 500€ range there are some that manage to print at 25 microns resolution.

Red highlights were done soon after I posted that. I've been quiet because I was busy then I got rear ended last friday. Mostly ok, working on things. A shield project @NIGHTBRINGER will like is due in tommorow and I may or may not be gnawing back to my roots for fun.
