It will usually be glossy after it dries.<br />2: A thin coat of black craft paint (I use Delta Ceramcoat.) This gives the primer a matte finish and adds some tooth for the paint to grab onto.<br />3: Paint as usual.<br />4; Fix the bases with a little black paint. Done! :)<br /><br />I don't use any varnish. The above recipe is pretty strong, stronger than any of my primed and varnished metal figures for sure. I just toss all my zombies into a pile and haven't had any problems.Evilcartoonisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06601323279665213451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4353993238228420112.post-22907273147169371632015-09-05T09:34:01.751-05:002015-09-05T09:34:01.751-05:00Hi, I've been checking out your monochrome wor...Hi, I've been checking out your monochrome work and it has inspired me to actually buy paint and learn paint for the first time!<br /><br />I just have a question before I buy anything. What do you do with the bases after they are stained with paint from the miniature? Do you have a different (cheaper) paint that you can go to town with to cover up?<br /><br />Also you don't seem to use or mention anything about dark shade post-painting followed by a matte spray to remove the glossy effect from the shade. <br />A lot of people online seem to swear by this step. If I keep my miniatures all in a toolbox, should I do these 2 steps?<br /><br />Thanks!Ralph Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06680342065016525909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4353993238228420112.post-6529042487748122632015-07-16T06:42:58.353-05:002015-07-16T06:42:58.353-05:00Nice to have you back dude!Nice to have you back dude!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11616664689882136444noreply@blogger.com
