I've found on Youtube some videos about the use of acrylic paints for tabletop games figures.
One of those videos describes a "speed painting" technique that is useful to quickly paint accessories to place on the tabletop. No need to have a "gold medal & Best of show paint" in such a case ; the goal is to have a tabletop battlefield that is eye-catchning.
I've tried that technique. All the different phases give an unpleasant result; but surprisingly the final result is... elegant!!!
So, here is the description of the process.
First step : a base coat of black color
-
All the colors used are AK 3G acrylics, with the use of Citadel Colors Nuln Oil & Agrax Earthshade.
The step two consisted in a drybrush of gold on some surfaces. No need to be careful...
-
Step 3 : Nuln Oil applied overall
-
Step 4 : Ultramarine blue paintbrushed in one layer only
-
Then, ultramarine paintbrushed again bud with a round paintbrush, little touch after little touch
-
After that, with a sponge, rust on some locations and finally Agrax Earthshade applied overall.
As previously said, the final result is eye-catching and good enough for play
-
I've tested the technique with different colors :-green
