Grab a model you want to paint.
One you're willing to test some new skills on.
Look at the model.
How do you want it to look?
Grab your primer and prime that puppy.
We're gonna paint it together.
Get all of the paints you want for the base colors.
Looking at your model, there's segmented sections on the model.
There may be armor panels or muscles or weapons. Get one paint ready for each of those segments.
This is a standard paint method, so no contrast paints.
Now paint the whole model the main color you want it to be.
After that's done, use the secondary paints that you chose everywhere you intend to use them.
No need to be super careful at this point, just get your base paints on the model.
If you were painting an ultramarine, you'd paint the whole thing a dark blue.
Paint the darkest paint first.
After you have your main color on you might paint your weapons or holsters etc.
Just get the paint on today.
Post the pics below in the comments when that's done.
Tomorrow we'll do the next step together.
