Painting Yellows How To

[Jeremy]

I use "Hycote" car spray matt black, grey or white on both metal and plastic for undercoat.
It gives a very good surface and paint adheres well.

I use the Hycote grey as well. Have for years

I've used grey primers in the past a few times on Fantasy miniatures where I was putting in a hell of a lot of layers but I always seem to revert back to black as it suits my method of leaving some of the black l showing through when I put down my layers(Crappy pictures below of layering over grey primer- apologies it's all I have left!)

Excellent. How happy are you with the results?

I might do my next unit in that colour. So yeah. Quite like it.

Fab. Glad the article was of some use.

If you have any variations on the basics I laid down I'd love to hear them.
