    Highlighting Metal Acrylics?

    Hi Everyone, My acrylics arrived this week and I'm painting again and it is a lot easier and more enjoyable than using oils. :) Anyway to get to the point I have done a base coat of my figure and now I want to work on the highlights for its amour. So I was wondering what do acrylic...

    A Few Questions For My First Figure

    Thanks for your help everyone. BTW I've just ordered some acrylics direct from Vallejo paints (because they were cheaper than the e-bay link). So I'll post again as soon I've done something after they arrive. :)

    A Few Questions For My First Figure

    A Few Questions For My First Figure

    Hi Everyone, I'm eager to start painting my first figure using oils, but I don't have any primer yet. So I was wondering can anyone recommend a couple of good primer brands for use with oils? From what I understand there is a grey, white, black and clear primer method I read about here...

    Problem Registering

    Hi Everyone, I'm new to the hobby and this is my first post here. :) I just wanted to let the admins know that there is something wrong with the registration system at planetFigure. It asks for 6 letters and most of the time the 6 letters aren't visible. Also it is not clear as to which order...
