Dunecrawler (skitarii / adeptus mechanicus)
Copied from my forum post (project logs): Did try some new stuff here. AK-interactive streaking grime and to use try to blend in transfers. The yellow: 1. Airbrush mournfang brown, then averland sunset, then I added whites to averland sunset to highlight. 2. Sealed with satin varnish. 3. Sprayed streaking grime all over the mini and let it dry. Once dry I wiped it off with a q-tip and white spirit, leaving it in the recesses, and some other areas to let it look dirty. 4. Used a sponge to apply rhinox hide for paint chips. I then highlighted the edges with dorn yellow (it's quite weak pigment, so acts almost as a glaze), and also around some of the chips. 5. Applied transfers. Used decal medium from vallejo to make it "sit" (I think it's similar to microsol). Glazed over averland sunset and some vmc tank brown to make them blend in. Also sponged on some more rhinox hide. In retrospect I should have used the transfer after the yellows were sprayed on, then done varnished, then all the weathering. I expect it would have looked exactly the same, but it would probably have required a few less steps to blend them in. I'll definitely be using the methods I used here on more minis. Going to practice :P I have to try this chipping medium, hairspray and salt and some other things as well.
