What do i do with this grey Battletech stuff?
Next layer
So now the burnt umber oil was is dry, over the camo basecoat i have painted the panels in model colour olive drab and then i have used a VERY messy edge highlight of green grey.
Hopefully this puts dirt in the panel lines from the oil wash and the messy edge highlights make paint look worn and faded, which will help with the paint chipping later.
Now one of the big things is at this point i need to add the decals. I’ve chosen to do the Eridani logo via water transfers, i’ve picked up some very small number decals and now just have to wait for both to arrive while i finish putting paint on the rest of the minis.
What i do need to do is have a proper think about:
a) Highlighting the greys
b) If I’m going to attempt reflective chrome canopies
c) Try and find my spare inner sphere standard battle armour
d) As the Eridani are a combined arms force in lore, do i buy some new minis to go with this spring clean project. Would that be cheating?
