    Cracking video! This is pretty much how I paint my Raptors. Though I much prefer your use of Balor and Zamesi for a muted yellow. Plus, also applying the decals after the basecoats makes SO much sense for weathering. Always find something to take away from your vids

    After putting on the "Athonian Camoshade", and before applying the Acrylic paint, may you need to apply a "matt varnish" for better paint adherence? or is it ok to paint on top of the Gloss Varnish?

  • @ThePaintingCoach

    @ThePaintingCoach

    10 ай бұрын

    It's fine to paint over the gloss varnish - the athonian camoshade will provide a matt surface on most of the model anyway. The only thing you would need to be careful of, is if you paint very diluted paint over the gloss, as this would have the same effect as the wash
