OK , maybe twice ! <| sep |> And if they pay , then it ' s more than worth your time . Winwin . <| sep |> Tell me more about the Glorious Keyboard ! I ' m really nervous about soldering , let alone getting access to one as I ' m up at college in the dorms . <| sep |> Dont waste the bullet just use V . A . T . S . to check if theyre alive or not . <| sep |> As far as I know . Got an order 2 weeks ago ? He is slow to respond by email sometimes but has always come through for me . I have had to email more than once for tracking though , but that seems pretty typical for email vendors IME . <| sep |> Sorry for the short reply to your long message . I was on mobile and on the way to some award ceremony . about the washing etc . I just wanted to say that the photos aren ' t very good so you cannot really see the technique and the black spots can of course also be small pools of wash . When going for a grittier look , washing is still something that is rather messy and a better technique at least giving you more control would be the Spongeing technique where you basically take the sponge you find in blisters , dip it a bit in a earthy colour , get that colour off like with drybrushing and do some marks on selected areas . Then you take your fine brush and colour the downward edges of the spots you created in a quite light colour like white or offwhite . Also , weathering powders e . g . by Forgeworld do wonders . dirt and earth can be done quite well with the earth powders while I can also imagine the soot powder well with GK and the rust powder being too much for my taste . Anyway , long story short , a bit more contrast on all your colours would really do wonders on your minis . Red is in fact a real pain because highlighting sucks a bit . You need to do highlights in skin tones and this works OK as that it does not look orange in the end . Your parchment is also OK but backlayering with bone , highlighting into white would also look nice and the loincloth . maybe try my homebrew technique for some weird but gritty looking offwhite Paint the surface with an equaivalent of Space Wolve ' s Grey mixed with Celestra grey for coverage and a bit of white to make it lighter . Then wash this stuff with a mix of two medium sized fully loaded brushes of Nuln Oil mixed with just the tip of the same brush of Stegadon . don ' t know what it ' s called but it ' s a darkgreenblueish colour and mix this stuff up with 23 loaded brushes of Lahmian Medium . The result will be a very light wash . Try to apply it in 2 layers the first goes everywhere , the second one just goes directly where the previous wash dried in the recesses . Now trace back with Space Wolves Grey Lahmian and glaze up this colour everywhere where there is no recess and highlight with SW grey white followed by pure white . It looks rather good in my opinion because white is hard to shadow with pure back as a contrast colour and including a hint of blue and green really looks good , especially when your bolters are red .
