Thought I'd do another test piece To try out the paint pens... |
The white paint didn't work so well as too much came out... |
HOWEVER...
I remembered that the Assyrians used Cimmerian and Scythian mercenaries and allies, so I've undercoated a load of Scythians to join the Assyrian army... |
Nice wee figure, that chap is certainly eye catching.
ReplyDeleteI think the word is garish. Perhaps that's my new style for these?
DeleteYou can certainly add a fair bit of detail using those pens, a horde of them will look very impressive.
ReplyDeleteHope so. The pens save a lot of time over using a paint brush.
DeleteVery colourful Rob…
ReplyDeleteAnd a nice looking miniature…
All the best. Aly
Thank you.
DeleteIt's a classic little model - those pens are certainly coming in handy - very nice - it's going to be quite an eye-catching unit when it's done.
ReplyDeleteThere main effect is speed - some jobs that are fiddly with a paint brush are easier using the pens, plus they dry quickly so you don't have the waiting time between coats. Finally, it's less messy - no opening jars or having to clean brushes.
