  1. Thx for the comment, I know they have different painting color schemes, at that point I had some idae behind that and now I do not know what. Perhaps it started as the ardd boys being black coz back then they were black Orcs and after Ironjawz I wanted to have them in a color. Now I have no idea why. Perhaps I will repaint the brutes but it will not be in a near furute. 

    The weapons were to be painted red with scratches on them as on the rest of the metal.

    Any way on to the arrdboys

  2. I forgot to mention, I live in a flat with two dogs, 4 rats, and we are expecting a child, I find no problem with airbrushing in the flat. Just use a room with closed door and good wentialtion, open a window and voila. Also you can use the kitchen but keep the dogs out, if they do not inhale the paint directly it will do them the same harm like you painting with the brush. The paint from air brush dryes in air fast.

     

    To the 'Eavy Metal style, keep in mind that the miniatures had changed since the 90's, now they are more 3D, as in the 90's they were 2D, it is front and back, the sides were very simple. Now you got Nagashes flighting and stuff like that.

    I would recomend, vallejo for chemistry (cealer thiner flow improver) and GW paints but buy bottels (like vallejo has) and put them in to them.

     

  3. I am in Poland so I have no idea about US prices, but you need to remember that buying airbrush is not the only cost. You need to buy airbrush cleaner, booth, some thing to clean (an ultrasonic device is perfect) also paints and thiner. I know paints do not cost much but this stuff add's up. Do not get me wrong I have an air brush and love it just i took me a while and lots of money to finaly be able to paint. Also you need an air supply, and if you buy it look at the models with air tank or long hose.

    And one more thing if you buy it first thing make a video of how to take it to pices, not for the world but for you to be able to do it, I took mine and then spent two night figuring out how to do it :D

    It is easy if you know how, hard if you don't. But I do love air brush it not only helps but also is fun to learn and paint, And I would think that wood elves are perfect for air brush.

    Ha! There are a lot better people than me airbrushing. I can just about cope with base coats and some small highlights. From what I have found its just keeping the paint mix consistent and cleaning regularly. 

    Nope, I have this two skills and I am no where near your level ;)
