Trying a new #speedpaint approach. Black primer, base, wash, finer & finer dry brush, then #contrastpaint

True metal #slapchop?

What do you think? One stand out? All ? None?

Today's #MiniaturePainting and modelling. I've come up with a new strategy for the (very) multi-part PiperMakes minis, but unfortunately I didn't finish them (yet).

This was also my first attempt at panel lining. A 1:1 mix of black Aquadrop and flow aid did a wonderful job, together with my size 1 brush. The drones (and their bases) are essentially done now, at least until my acrylic rods arrive.

A miniature base topper mounted on a bottle cap. It looks like sci-fi hexagonal pavement, painted a dark black-green, with a yellow kerb, a metallic grate, and a small metal piece mounted in the pavement.
Six 3D printed miniature drones, painted and mounted on wooden cocktail sticks, stuck in some laser-cut foam. They are mostly a dark red and dark purple, with some white sections and small black detailing, with clear black panel lines.
Three partially-assembled 3D printed mech miniatures. They consist of just the above-the-waist parts, with two guns each, in a variety of poses. Next to them is a partially-assembled lower half, missing half of one leg and a foot.
A large 3D printed mech miniature, mounted to a base topper, on top of a jar lid. The model has been primed white, but otherwise has no other paint on it.

Today on the painting table - uwu drones and their bases. I used the 5:4:1 mix on the drones, and the 4:3:2:1 mix on the bases. This neatly shows the differences between those mixes.

One thing I _need_ to learn is timing. If I leave these mixes on too long, even with acrylic retarder, they bead up and become unremovable without leaving 'sunspots'. This isn't usually a problem on textured surfaces, but due to how flat these are, it's _super_ obvious here.

3D printed drone miniatures mounted on cocktail sticks, which are stuck into a box. They've been primed white, and then preshaded black. The lines have very clear definition, while the flat surfaces are a light grey, which has a few round white spots in places.

3D printed miniature bases, which look like futuristic hex pavement. Some of the bases include manhole covers, others grates. They've been primed white, then preshaded black. This picked out their lines very clearly, and stained the raised surfaces very slightly. Some of the surfaces have white spots.

Several new #MiniaturePainting techniques here:

* (modified) Zorn palette
* Using base toppers to allow bases to be spray painted black separately without using masking
* 4:3:2:1 preshade (flow aid, black Aquadrop, water, acrylic retarder)

All told, I'm fairly happy with the outcome, though I admit it's not _quite_ how I imagined it. Technically, in the Zorn palette, black serves the role of blue... so they're secretly blue. As lore says.

Five miniatures on a painting table. They are all feminine-looking, wearing helmets, armour and carrying rifles. Their crested helmets and tabards are red, with yellow gems, but the rest of their armour and weaponry is a grey-black colour. The bases are covered in pale grey rocks and soil, with some rusty structures peeking through occasionally. The base rims are painted black.

Today's #MiniaturePainting . The avatar is going to be a _mission_ to paint just due to scale, but the choice of pyrrole red for the hair was 100% right. The infantry were a bit of an accident with a new preshade mix (4 parts flow aid, 3 parts black Aquadrop, 2 parts water, 1 part acrylic retarder), but the colours salvage them. Going to need some earthy colours for the bases, and maybe some more colours on the minis, but definitely better now than before.

Several miniatures on a cluttered painting table, with ink bottles and various bits everywhere. There is a very large miniature behind, with five smaller infantry miniatures in front. The large miniature is looking down while holding a sword, while the smaller infantry are standing or running forward holding rifles. All the miniatures are preshaded with a black ink, which has picked out all the details and left everything beautifully greyscaled. The large miniature has most of her hair painted a bright red. The infantry have their crests and tabards painted the same red.
Two infantry miniatures, with a large miniature blurred in the background. They are running forward holding rifles. They are preshaded with a black ink, making the whole miniature look greyscale. They have bright red crests and tabards, and yellow gems.

One is standing holding her rifle one-handed, the other has her foot on a rock, arms spread into her cloak, pistol on each arm. They are preshaded with a black ink, making the whole miniature look greyscale. They have bright red crests and tabards, and yellow gems.
