The dip worked very well with the bone base, which I expected and it also layered some nice depth on the white banner and parchment.
The banner gave me a chance to try simple free-handing of the Deathwing emblem, which came out rather well. I originally wanted to add some text, but ended up running out of space.
Two main lessons from this batch.
First, never ever use old primer. I do not know why I ignored this wisdom. The models ended up with a terrible, sandy texture which really obscured some finer detail on the robes and swords of the autogunner. Fortunately I was able to cover the damage and it's not visible on the finished models. But I was worried for a bit there.
Second, the P3 wet-palette is excellent for wet-blending. I only blended the power-sword, but this technique will be very useful on the character models.
Next up, my strike force gets some speed with a 6 bike Ravenwing squad.
