You might be able to get some of the white out by keeping them in a warm place, I think it\'s supposed to make some of the moisture trapped under/in the varnish dissipate or summat.

apparently you might be able to buy the new SM codex at GD :)

if that doesnt cheer you up then you should go buy yourself some ice cream :)

Had the same thing happen. I was SHOCKED-mad...know how you feel. I had put a LOT of work into the one\'s it happened to. You might try to put a coat of clear varnish over the white-ish one\'s. IF you\'re luckey it will \'de white\' them.

SM codex\'s are like White Dwarf, a new one gets published every month. To hell with Space Marines! GW needs to redo a codex that has not been revised since the last time Michael Jackson had a hit single, like Dark Eldar!

its testors dullcote airhead, the brush on stuff. did all three at the same time and ones fine, i presume there was either too much in places are its maybe dried to quick as i did them outside.
will try a thin coat on top shawn, see if it helps

buggers, the pair of you!!you sabotaged it didnt you Nigel!! scared of the competition! like i said i wasnt aiming to win anything they were just \'bog standard\' minis but still annoying.
have put another coat on which has cleared it up fine as long as it dries like that

i may do a quickie to get in early (nothing serious tho,) but i won\'t be varnishing it as it changes the finish (sometimes not for the better lol)

mate, it\'s trapped moisture that causes the whitening.
leave it be and it should sort itself out unless it has created a textured surface, in which case your screwed.

I fixed it before on a few of my models by \"drybrushing\" lightly with a clean, dry tank brush, getting off some of the fuzzy parts of the sealer. It may do the trick for you.
