I'll be using LifeColor acrylics along with W/N and MIG Oils.

Here comes the first question:

Should you use "White" or "GREY" primer?

I was reading articles about figure painting and it seems "WHITE" is used a lot.
I've also got a can of Tamiya White primer,should I go over the Grey with it or does it matter?

Thanks
Tony lee
 
Tony

They are plastic injection molded figures yes ?

Ive found that Ive never needed to use a primer on plastic figures only metal and resin ones

I hope that helps and saves time

I good wash in washing up liquid is in order though to get rid of the production greases

Good set to start with mate

Thanks for entering (y)

I got the base color on four of them and the flesh base coat on the other three today.
Clean-up could've been a little better but for learning purposes they'll be fine.

Thanks for droppin by. :D

Since I was able to get all the figures painted yesterday I set about painting the details today.
With the cameras eye I see a couple of things that might need a touch up dangit. :hmmm

Eyebrows are a stinker to do. :bang head Most of these guys are squinting so I can skip the eyeballs (y)
I guess a wash and pin wash are next.
One thing about it these are turning out better than the other one I did last year,that's encouraging.
