Does that give good even coverage? I always struggle to get a smooth yellow without resorting to lots of coats. GW's yellows are shite!

Plaka yellow?

You expect me to share my secret recipe? Oh, go on then as it is very simple but dont call me names for using craft paints.
Base coat of Inscribe Golden Yellow shaded with Burnt Umber watercolour, Inscribe Sunlight and then same with a little, you guessed it, Inscribe "Snow" added for the last highlights. All over a white undercoat but they have the pigment to cover over black.
In fact as I think about it these yellow ones are almost entirely Inscribe colours despite the dozens of Foundry, CdA, Vallejo etc. in my paint racks.

Its basically the same as I used on this chap sometime ago

Better'n anything else I've tried, you still have to layer it on though.


I wouldn't take the piss Svennn, I use inscribe as much as I use plaka  8)

Wouldn't like to try their yellow over black though, life's too short for that amount of layers  ;)

That's where I've been going wrong. Three top painters and they all use Plaka/Inscribe.

I spend a small fortune on expensive "brand name" paints and turn out consistently average work  >:(
