I use 2 techniques - both very similar:
1. diluted layers of paint: browns, greens and black; it takes time waiting until each layer is dry so you can paint another yet it gives you smooth blending
2. dry pigments + water: works almost the same as diluted paint BUT pirments can give you kinda textured surface :)

It is done - more than enough for gaming :)
Next one is plastic version of this model.
Hope you like it!

That green camo look is way cooler than the usual paint scheme the books suggest!

I didn't want to post another thread so decided to update this one :)
Last night I finished second helljack for my army: again it's reaper but this time it's new plastic version...
I must say it's nice yet working on metal models is just waaaaay more pleasant...
Hope you like it anyway :)
I was asked to share my way of painting these minis so sooner or later an article will appear in tutorials section of my site :)

ok, silly question...
the 180 arc on your bases, how did u do it?
such a simple thing and yet i manage to screw it up by painting mine either 142 or 198
i just cant seem to get it right once the model is on.
perhaps i should tape it off BEFORE the model goes on teh base?
tell me please

Hehe, I must say I didn't measure it:
I don't know if there's exactly 180 - probably isn't...
You can use these for marking 180 degrees :)
