Do you want to do more than just paint silver on all of your weapons and armor? Have you always wanted to explore the unique properties of metallic paints? If so, this class is for you! Join us as we experiment with dry brushing, washes, layering, and highlighting, as well as discuss the Three Degrees of Shiny. Any level of painting experience is welcome! Having an OLD brush handy is recommended since dry brushing is tough on the bristles. Also, an acrylic metal medium is recommended to get the most utility from this class.
Prep:
Wash and dry the miniature(s) thoroughly. Completely cover the miniature(s) with dark brown or black; Brown Liner works well as this initial "primer" coat for Bones plastic.
