Widow Tarha was rather difficult to paint. Loads of bad angles my paint brush couldn't get too. At least she's done though. :D Two left to go until I get the expansion.

She took a while to paint. Loads of different greens in just her pants! (O_O)

After more than 20 years, I decided to paint some figures again.

Not as clean as I wanted it to be. I also don't have all my painting equipment anymore.

I bought a GW starter kit so it was kind of limited. Nevertheless, I felt young again!

Really great work Skolo!

My newest figure, any advice on how to get a good result for the eyes? I never seem to manage to get them in a way that is good. The paint always bleeds out and when I clean up the face it bleeds into the eyes….

Hi.

I am a planning on painting my miniatures. I am a beginner, and I know absolutely nothing in regards to miniature painting. I am thinking about painting my Descent figures and D&D figures. With the plastic, is it okay to use acrylic paints (water-based) such as those used for Warhammer 40k? 

 

Also, I had some questions on which brand of brushes you guys used, what brand of paints, and if I needed any additional supplies?
I was planning on picking up either Formula P3 or Citadel paints. I know that Citadel paints are more expensive, but they are easily accessed around stores. Formula P3 is a lesser known brand that is more rare in stores, but it offers more variety in colors. 

 

I was looking for suggestions. 

 

Thanks a bunch in advance.

Yeah, acrylics work fine for this plastic.  The soft plastics are typically a bit more "slippery" than hard plastics like 40K minis are made from, so you definitely want to do a primer coat, but beyond that I find it the same as painting any other minis.

I used Citadel paints almost exclusively for a long time, growing up.  They work fine, although I have since grown dissatisfied with the craftsmanship of the bottles they come in.  My current favourite brand is Vallejo, which is not the easiest brand to find in hobby stores, but the colours are nice and vibrant and the bottles are really well built, too =)

Vallejo is very popular in Europe. Same as Army Painter.

They are using the same tubes for paints.

Very good stuff.

 

For some bigger projects or where the surface is bigger I use small jars (XF?) from Tamiya.

Back in a days, for my WW2 models, I was using humbrol paints a lot. But his are rather world war colors.

 

I was never using citadel paints to be honest. I got some of them like bronze or xeno-something ;-) but I work mainly with AP
