Here we have a test figure that I painted for LPL using a new varnish and lighting.

Quite pleased with the result

Might get some different backgrounds for the LPL though

I'll get to use him at some point in a game

cheers

That blue is wonderful!

That's really great, but why are you showing it to us?

If we've seen all or a portion of your entry previously, you don't get the bonus points.

...using a new varnish...

Which varnish?

It look fantastic. Who make the figure?

Thanks chaps

Questions in order of asking...

It's a test figure as I'm trying out a slightly different way of painting and using a different varnish with slightly different lighting to go with it

He won't be in the LPL but will be part of a larger group of figures, some of which will be in the LPL.

The varnish is 'Humbrol model & craft hobby spray varnish' It's for acrylics, is 150ml and is about £5 a pop but certainly worth it.

I honestly can't remember who made the figure but I think I got it from Partizan some years ago (maybe the free figure on the door).

cheers

Very nice

This year's LPL is building up to be a cracker.

Splendid paint job, how does it differ from your usual way of painting?

OSHIROmodels · « **Reply #11 on:** February 10, 2011, 08:57:36 AM »

Very watered down top layers and taking my time

Cheers chaps

A corker. Which dark blue on black and how many hilites?

OSHIROmodels · « **Reply #13 on:** February 10, 2011, 09:13:21 AM »

Foundry Prussian Blue mid and light shades followed by Foundry Bavarian Cornflower Blue shade and I think I'm going to use it for the rest of my Japanese on Mars as it's quite pleasing

cheers
