Thanx, gents....

I had today the whole day free for painting and started a new perry-box of english agincourt.
Not quite finished but you get the idea...



Painting 20+ miniatures at the same time speeds thing up...

Cheers,
Don

Damn. 20 figures painted on the same day.
Thatīs my record some years ago but without your quality.
Very well done.

[OSHIROmodels]

For the whole day I'm assuming you mean 24 hours 

Fantastic output 

cheers

Cracking!

Thanx for your comments....

Okay, I made a little painting with Don guide to show the painting steps...

First step was glueing all the stuff together. Not the easiest part with all the fine details...time: 2 h.
Didn't make a pic here.

Next step. Base colour black and the first silver 45 min.



Next is the flesh tone. I use Foundry Flesch B. Time 10 min.




Next step light brown for nearly all the bows, Spearshaft B, Foundry. Time 25 min.



And some red for the english.... Vallejo flat red. Time 25 min.



Next are white and light blue (Sky Blue B by Foundry). Time 35 min.



Next steps are dark green and dark brown (Forest Green A and South American Flesh C). Time 30 min.




Next I fixed all the parts that I missed so far.
After that I got the Armypainter-Wash on: Strong Tone, Dark Tone mixed. Time 45 min.




And the last step, the highlighting. I just use the original colour over the washed base colour. So far: flesh, white, blue, silver and red. Time about 3 hours.




And you have to add the drying time.

I would say round about 9 hours so far....

Cheers,
Don

For a mass production method using 'the dip' (well, okay, a wash ) it's incredibly effective.
I think your use of 'washing' is the trick. Many people do this very badly. You make it work very well.

Stunning output,and to make them look so good at the same time,amazing 

[Sangennaru]

WOW. I can't wait to have them finished! Any more tips on "how to use the AP washes appropriately?"

[Codsticker]

I use the same method but your production really out strips mine.

I never tried the army painter washes, considering the result you obtain, I should make a try !

thanks

Oh they are great! Quite close to the glorious GW badab black, but in several shades.

I do it very patiently, very controlled. Might sound a little confusing, but I splash the colours pretty sloppy on the minis, but the wash in a more controlled carefull fashion.
The wash will bring the colours togehter and cover most painting errors...

Glad I decided to purchase some then, as that sounds like a very good painting method for me.
