Not Airbrushed |
My only regret is that I didn't put enough contrast in the fades (ie. they are dark blue to light blue rather than midnight blue up to sky blue) especially on the Crimson Hunter (below). After the first few projects, I began to notice that the intensity of the color, straight out of the airbrush and still mostly wet, is more opaque than when it drys. Therefore, the high contrast I thought I had painted became much more subtle upon drying.
Airbrushing more than one of the colors on a model is an art in itself. The simplest method is to paint the individual pieces before assembling it and the more creative method involves masking. Masking can be done with templates, tape, or paint-on latex. I did some simple tape masking on the crimson hunter and painted the Wraithlord and Wraithknight in parts.
