Hey I'm Jessi! Nerdy Latina Mom here to talk videogames, 30k, 40k. Dumb screenshots and pics inbound. I play a retired succubus in XIV! 🔞 Very NSFW 🔞Puerto Rican American!
Those people are nuts though. They go to SOOO much effort! They do better paint jobs on their interior spaces than I can do on a presentation piece! I just have this weird thing about not leaving them in grey, bare plastic (or with just a black prime or whatever).

That includes the spray prime, wash and paint drying times.

Because I know it will be almost totally hidden (unless the ramp is down). I set myself a limit of one hour to paint these interiors. Here's a pic of a different Rhino before I glued it together.

I'm sure it would be more controllable with more practise (and more clean-up) but yeah it's hard to get REPEATABLE results more than anything. It would work much better on terrain or over larger areas I think.

Oh, no! The tusks are my patented 'BONE JUICE' (I stole it from somewhere and forgot who I got it from). Paint in white. Then mix 3:1 Contrast Medium to Skeleton horde. Wash in the front of the horn/bone and the base. Repeat 2 or 3 times to build up contrast!

You know... I DO have some blood effect paints I've never used...

Works much better if you leave it to dry and 'reactivate' it with water and move it around with the brush to remove it from unwanted areas/high spots and to make it pool in the recesses. Smells like it's giving me cancer. Need a lot more practise with it but it well be worth experimenting! (2/2)

Thoughts on Dirty Down Rust, Yellow Rust and Verdigris. REALLY tricky to apply. Need to be shaken for like 5 solid minutes or a good minute on a vortex mixer. Takes a few 'layers' to build up effect. (1/2)

Ah! So speedpaint/contrast over metallics! I'll try that sometime, it looks like 'candy' metal you see cars. Very cool.

If you have a big ol' pair of honkers you can just use them, your chin, precarious balancing and a timer function! 😆
