I was trying to paint some more on the Malifaux Ice Golem and mixed in one of Games Workshop's new paints for a highlight and some color transitions.
This is the first I've used this Ceramite White since I bought it about a year ago - turns out this generically-labeled white paint is essentially a brush-on primer. I've used thick white paints before - VMC White, for one, and Ceramite is something completely different. It even separates differently w/ my thinner mixtures and everything. Wishing I had never bought the crap.
Unfortunately, I used it as the white base I added light blue into, and then spread to a few other palette wheels. If I wanted to paint with, say Elmer's Glue, it would've been nice to know I was about to do that before I did it. Oh well, it is what it is.
Guess who's relegated his wannabe Gen Con MHE Painting Competition entry back down to a regular tabletop figure?
Pfft.

That really sucks, hopefully you will be able to rescue the figure for later use.
ReplyDeleteI started back with the deepest colors of my palette and am in the process of working things back up to where they went wrong while smoothing out the transitions - kinda what I wanted to do in the first place, but such is life.
ReplyDeleteIf I can work on things in the next few days and score an appropriate base, I might have it done by Friday for entry... but I'm not rushing. (Display-ish quality sealed for tabletop use, essentially, and if I happen to finish it in time for entry, more's the better.)
