The airbrush is such a speed boos for power swords. Before I had one I would spend a ton of time applying a zillion glazes and waiting for them to dry...now it is mask -> spray -> spray -> unmask and done. The best part for me is when you paint the edges, then the whole sword just comes together!

I've often seen cling wrap used to mask the rest of the miniature and then just tape together the parts of the wrap. Seems to lessen the risk of pulling paint or being too sticky.

Great tip, never see that, will try it. Plus you can see through it. Personally I can't get on with it, I can't even wrap a sandwich in it neatly

I was really curious as to why you put masking tape on the sword but seeing the end results it’s wonderful! Amazing job!

I’m doing this today for the Deathwing Knights and Terminators with power swords. What PSI setting are you using? And needle size 0.2 or 0.3? Also do you thin down the Pro Acryl paint?

Looks awesome. What PSI are you airbrushing at? Attempted this but mine ended up a little too opaque.

Nice tutorial, thanks! Just wondering why wouldn't you paint the sword prior to the assembly? Or airbrush it befor painting the reat of the model?
@FauxHammer 9 ай бұрын
You could do it either way I guess. I always just like to cover the largest area first. I hadn’t decided on a colour scheme for the sword until I’d seen the model itself.

Tip, you can use clingwrap instead of putty.

Is there anyway you could do one of these but for POWER AXES? I have about 30 axes to paint. :)
@FauxHammer Жыл бұрын
I would but it's the same deal. You just need the really thin tape and you curve it along the edge where the blade tapers. Pit 2 highlights on the edge, top and bottom. For the blade boy, make it dark toward the blade and light near the handle

If you were to do this in red, how do you do it without the sword looking pink? Thanks!

replace the lighter colours with orange and yellow

Does someone know what would be good Citadel equivalents of the colors used in the video?

It honestly matters very little. If you want a blue sword, just get a dark blue and a bright blue and a white.

Actually you want to use a wet pallete for edge highlighting. The key is flow improver. The paint should be flowing off of the brush. Then you put your brush at a 45 degree angle and you then you pull in a straight line towards your hear just barley touching that edge.
@FauxHammer Жыл бұрын
depends on the paint really, the point was you can overdilute your paint.
