I don't know how it would work with transfers. I would give it a spray of Dullcoat first. A few small highlights can finish the mini off nicely. You can certainly highlight over the top - I have done so myself. Do not use a good brush for this! Use an old busted brush, or get a super cheap one. As Elbows says, you will need white spirits (called mineral spirits in the US) to wash your brush. It also guards against those stains you can get if the dip pools. I've done it myself in the past and it can look really cool. Using a dry brush to soak up the excess dip is definitely a valid technique, in fact it's something I'd absolutely recommend if you're happy to spend a bit more time on them. Do a couple of test models, but how I would do it is mix up a 50-50 mix of Caliban Green and Moot green and try it over that. The problem is that dark shade on a dark colour doesn't actually result in the nice contrast you're looking for, and that Elbows gets on his brightly coloured stuff. If you're painting Dark Angels, I'm not sure slapping it over Caliban Green will result in much more some muddy green-brown marines. So, for people who want to get better at painting, I'd say avoid it.įor people who want a nice table-top finish and want it quickly? I'd suggest it.Įlbows is the absolute expert on strong tone dip, but I'll just add a few of my own experiences with it as well as they might be helpful in this instance.įirstly, it doesn't work well on dark colours. I just do a very basic paintjob, and dip. However, I don't glaze, wash, highlight, etc. lol, and then the dip saves them 100% and they look much better. I "hate" some of my minis before I dip them. The trick is to realize you can really make a massive difference. For most other things, I like it and it works fine.
I've never used it on super dark miniatures, so I can't speak for using it on Dark Angels. I use it here in this "how-to" I did on my page a while ago.

Not terribly so, but it does.Ģ) You'd want to do decals afterwards, and I haven't done much with decals so I'm not sure how effective it is.ģ) Like anything, it takes some time to figure out how to do it, and learn the tricks of doing it consistently and easily. However, I don't paint for competitions or pretend I'm some master painter.ġ) Yes, it absolutely dulls the colours.
