Thank you to all that helped me with my last post on greying when varnishing. I decided to go down the route of brushing on the varnish and on Thursday my wife bought a 250 ml bottle of Windsor and Newton's Galleria Matt varnish from Amazon prime for under £10. And it was delivered Friday.
On Saturday night I tried it on one of the figures that I part repainted and yesterday I had a look at the result and was very happy with it.
I have now hand varnished all 20 figures and just need to finish the bases off, though it's unlikely to be this coming week or next weekend.
Anyway I'm feeling a lot more motivated now and looking forward to finishing these Frostgrave Gnolls off.
Here's the 1st of the batch - just need to but some grass etc on the base.
Now just need to sort out the photography side so you can see the shading etc.
Anyway thanks again.
So pleased that you sorted out the varnishing woes, it must be so soul destroying seeing that happen to your hard work.
ReplyDeleteAll looks good stuff far. I hope it has sorted it out. I was getting really demotivated of late.
Deletethanks Michael.
Looks good dude. I always hand varnish as well. Just make sure its nice and thin coats as I have had the odd occasion where it has pooled then greyed slightly after a few months.
ReplyDeleteCheers Simon. Fortunately I found out about the thin coates on the first figure and was able to sort it out.
