Tanks look great! How'd you get the barrel burn effect?

thanks! it's three colours sprayed really thin overtop of the metal... so it's transparent blue, purple and burnt umber (the burnt umber is an ink from Michael's that just works great for any type of metallic burn effect). So burnt umber for about 30% of the end of the barrel... followed by purple for 20% and blue for 10% to give that gradient effect. The transparent paints I've switched completely over to Simon's Legendary Paint line... just SO much better than the GW clears (and no shiny finish) one of the tricks they taught in the airbrush class that I totally use all the time now!

okay so I didn't hit my 10k goal... but got 7k worth... got distracted by a BUNCH of assembly work and other stuff that pretty much made the last 2 months of the year a no go for productivity.
Will have to try again this year I guess!

Now to just buy 10000 points worth of minis! \o/
Seriously, though, hella impressed that you got 7000 points painted, bud! 10000 will be a breeze, after that!
