Dipping

[Rev]

i thought about using a drill, but it shook off to much so i\'m doing them by hand.

i\'m pleased with them, 16 gaungs it 2 days from start to finish is good going by my standards!

I\'m waiting for you to post some pics when they\'ve been dullcoated. good going so far.

i\'m reconsidering the dullcoat tbh.

Although what i\'ve used is \'satin finish\' it gives a nice alien glossy look - what do you think.

also, i used varnish not woodstain, so theres little need to \'revarnish\'

opinions:?

Why don\'t you try one and compare, you can always give it a coat of gloss if you prefer the shine. personally I\'d dull them down.

To get the full on effect with dipping you really do seem to need the Liberon woodstain. It seems to have a consistency that you can\'t find in any UK products that makes it work just right.

I used to work in the Northern Europe office at GW, which is like speed painting central, so I\'ve had way more exposure to dipping than I\'d really like (it\'s not to my tastes. Great if you like your models to look like caramel... thats about it!).

If you do want to get some though it is available throughout Scandinavia. The bloke who did all the different dipping in the first link you posted used to send it to us from Norway actually. He does have links to GW though, I don\'t think he does it for anyone!

You can get it from a Danish hobby store called Dragon\'s Lair for sure, but I don\'t know if they will deliver.

Liberon Products are available in the UK. I\'ve bought some myself from B&Q.
