#basecoat
I'm currently painting a mini using an Ushabti Bone basecoat, and as someone that love difficult basecoat (yellow my beloved), I can tell you with absolute certainty that's it's the most dogshit paint for a basecoat I've ever had the displeasure to work with.

I finished up the front of MK4 Prime's torso and redid the basecoat on his back, this weekend.

He's slowly getting there.

In support of Science, Art, Kindness to counter my sense of malaise over the state of the world these past years, Bluesky seemed a good change: here’s a timelapse of me basecoat painting my Tiktaalik sculpture recently for a new display in Singapore!

Put down a basecoat test for my Emperors Children today. And as if by magic, the rest of the releases are announced. Going to be a slow burn project so Fulgrim and the boys will have to wait. #WarhammerCommunity #Nerdlings

Love scrolling through these on Fridays… even if I have nothing to contribute!

I guess I can maybe mention that I’ve experimented with airbrushing speedpaint over a metallic basecoat, and that I think it looks pretty cool!

You can't use that much Agrax Earthshade over a Pink Horror basecoat, it just looks fucked up

Eldar Voidscarred Corsairs with prismatic daggers in bisexual pride color !

I've used a new recipe for the pink using AK Magenta paint as basecoat and it's far less painful to pull off due to better coverage.

Anyway, as always, hope you like the result.

Trump’s parade game was so half-assed that he put his tanks on the table with only a basecoat. :)
