Hey man, ive got a little problem with painting my b1's... Couldnt get my hands on the wraithbone spray, so i used corax white instead, but it seems like the skeleton horde isnt properly covering the primer, and if i get too much skeleton horde on it it turns out too dark... you think the primer can make this much of a difference?
