Tip of the Month: December Edition

To paint camo patterns, use a q-tip.  Start with your base colors with shading and highlights.  Grab a q-tip and smash the point so it widens out.  Don't pull it apart or it will lose its sturdiness and will be harder to control.  Dip it in the paint and dab it on.  Repeat.
Just don't put it in your ear afterwards.

Stuff for other people

Here's some items just finished for a customer who was very happy to have them.
All models are the old metal command squad that I believe came out in 3rd edition.  Still fun to paint.  The champion is the Black Templar's Emperor's Champion with a converted combat shield and generic power sword.  Enjoy!
Ah, the joys of color printers.
"Look at him! He's all white!"
Who's the new guy?

Painting white is not that hard.

I just painted an Ultramarine command squad for a friend that consisted of the old school metal figures.  I decided the Apothecary would have the old school, all white paint job instead of the quick and easy Ultramarine blue with white helmet (boring <yawn>).  But since this is one color (including yellow) that everyone hates to paint, how should I do it?  The following steps make it real easy to do in a matter of no time and get great results.
