Thank you very much for your comment...Both of you:<br /><br />Thank you very much for your comments on this one - such comments are the reason why i am trying to help, having the energy and happiness to do so... thanks a lot, very appreciated.<br /><br />@Nick<br />"I know this is different for each artist, but when painters say a "tip" of a color added, is it just enough on the brush tip mixxed in to visibly change the color slightly?"<br /><br />Sure this is a very undefined indication, sorry about that. It is exactly what you did write!<br /><br />"I ask, because black is more frustrating for me to paint and I have tried to change it slightly by adding blues, or browns to the base color I use and I either add too much of the color making it look not so black when I finish, or so little of the "tip" color that I can't really tell if I changed the black at all. :) Probably a fine line that you learn with experience?"<br /><br />Oh yeah, i hate black too - but since i did add different tones to it, like those you described and for sure others (always something new for experimental weirdo style) i am slightly starting to love painting black. I use a tip of one of those colours into the black for a basecolour, i do not change this anymore by bringing in more of the blues or whatever colour you have added, i simply highlight it as i would have been highlighting only black, with codex grey, bleached bone, space wolfs grey, skull white in the end... just for examples. This won't change the effect of a intresting black by bringing it too much to another colour. The added colour is just more realistic, because in my eyes there is no pure black in nature, there is always some colour playing in it, for example from a light source as the sun, etc. <br /><br />"Also, when you glaze over your black areas with chaos black, is there a reason you make a glaze of chaos black instead of using the badab black in a similar way? Do the two different methods produce different results?"<br /><br />Not really... in the end i sometimes think the badab black (inks from GW) dries out a bit shiny... but that is not always the reason for doing so, pure chaos black as a glaze brings more intensity of the colour in a shorter way... it also helps to mix Chaos black with Badab black and do a glaze of that, so you get both effects... please remember i do never do one thing for a specific reason ... at the next miniature i maybe try something else or do it another way... <br /><br />Hope that helps!<br /><br />@Tom<br />You made my day! <br /><br />Keep on happy Painting!<br />Regards<br />RomanRoman aka jarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12620077720130753226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669705958656495659.post-53072492400395099392009-11-02T20:36:40.902+01:002009-11-02T20:36:40.902+01:00Hey Jarhead,

I have been painting the same terminator over the past weeks following your updates. I even made a wet palette, and I have to say that I've never had so much fun painting!<br />I just primed Gideon (another Space Hulk terminator) and I'm looking forward to start painting him up.<br />Congratulations with your deserved win on Bolter and Chainsword!<br /><br />Keep it up and thanks again!<br />cheers,<br />TomTomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669705958656495659.post-78349883815527965032009-11-02T19:36:15.080+01:002009-11-02T19:36:15.080+01:00Great write up!
