You paint in very thin layers slowly build from on color to the next. <br /><br />First I Lightly glue with a very small drop just enough so the gun stays in place making sure everything fits then I prime the mini. I remove the gun. Paint everything that's on the gun that I could not paint before and the space on the mini that is covered by the gun. Then I glue the part back on. As for gaps luckily Infinity minis are very well made and you do not have worry about that. But if there is a gap I usually fill with green stuff before I prime adding a little glue to the main mini side so that when you remove the gun the green stuff sticks to the main mini and not the gun. Then when have painting everything you glue the gun back on hopefully with no gaps because the green stuff should now make it a perfect fit. I hope that answers you questions.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02731326070429633708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7541867093060617.post-52508484687333363722013-02-05T07:22:56.354-08:002013-02-05T07:22:56.354-08:00First off I have to say all of your paint jobs are...First off I have to say all of your paint jobs are amazing. I have been looking for inspiration for a paint scheme for my nomads and this is definitely it. Orange is my favorite color, but it's usually too bright to make the model look good. In this case I love how you mute the color with brown to make it not overpowering.<br /><br />I have two questions for you. First is what technique do you use for blending?<br /><br />Second is about when a model has a gun that goes across their chest. I notice that you wait to attach the arm/gun until after the torso is painted, which seems to be common practice. What do you do about any gaps between the shoulder and torso? Do you paint the arm first or do you pin/glue it into place, fill in the gap and then paint?Novixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09496648314767656784noreply@blogger.com
