Cool....

Thanks for posting your article. I have quite a few GW inks and find them quite useful. The other forum looks good too

I\'ll take close up pics of the areas where the \"ink shade\" effect or the glaze (ink smoothing) effect is more visible as soon as possible and post them.
I\'m happy if this helps improve some tech.

for those that don\'t like the gloss ink leaves you can mix in 50/50 vallejo matte medium. then thin.
it cuts down the gloss really well!

Here you can see the effect on Irix helm and skin (work in progress) from a close up view

Here are 2 new shots (direct scans) of the helm done with the inks shading. Even the horns are shaded that way and even the weapon.
Now about the weapon... it\'s still heavily work in progress. It should be a SENMM effect... but at the moment I\'t more like \"magic weapon\" rather than \"very shining and reflecting piece of destruction\"
