You don't have an airbrush do you?<br /><br />What I do for mine is paint them brown then drybrush a lighter colour then add some highlights and shadows to each panel with an airbrush.<br /><br />Without texture or an airbrush, you could use a sponge to create some texture by sponging on a slightly lighter colour.Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02145798538758316372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-27797272305215163032014-09-11T05:40:19.781+01:002014-09-11T05:40:19.781+01:00I would love to see this blog on the House of Pain...I would love to see this blog on the House of Paincakes blogrolls.<br />:)<br /><br />http://www.houseofpaincakes.com/p/join-us.htmlSinSynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12352693991857976930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-87132020162643789332014-09-10T21:43:36.605+01:002014-09-10T21:43:36.605+01:00Hear-hear...and thanks!Hear-hear...and thanks!Admiral Draxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476823273954165890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-805941153597848432014-09-10T21:43:07.084+01:002014-09-10T21:43:07.084+01:00Thanks, Dai!

It feels more twee and 'social' somehow tha modelling guns and soldiers.<br /><br />That said, they're not so much fun to paint as to design...Admiral Draxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476823273954165890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-88125496378820202272014-09-10T21:41:07.488+01:002014-09-10T21:41:07.488+01:00Thanks!

I rather enjoyed crfting the beams on the more ornate one - it's the sort of cottage I'm surrounded by here in rural England.<br /><br />What's worrying me - I'll probably put up a post asking for advice nearer the time - is how to convincingly paint the large, flat surfaces...Admiral Draxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476823273954165890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-23651051166253616992014-09-10T07:36:37.036+01:002014-09-10T07:36:37.036+01:00They look great.
