New to Kitbashing
New to Kitbashing
Hey everyone!
I started painting Warhammer mid last year and I while I have dabbled in kitbashing before I this is my first one that uses multiple sets as well as Tamiya putty.
I got some lil fellas off FB Marketplace for really cheap so I wanted to do something interesting with them. This was them before:
I have a few questions, and thought you guys and gals might be able to help.
- Any general advice for kitbashing?
- How do you strip your old paint? It took multiple washes with simple green and scrubbing, which isn't what I have heard is the general amount needed.
- What chapter do you think would go well with this guy? I wanted to keep some of the yellow and maybe red from the original pieces.
Also, if you want to check out some of my other stuff and give advice for a newcomer to the hobby that would be awesome! https://www.instagram.com/andrewsometimespaints?igsh=cmw4MWFwend2NzBx

Guitar strings or rolling green stuff against a plastic comb are great means to make all those extraneous external wires typical to 40k.
-
Multple passes with letting it bathe simple green then washing afterward sounds a bit atypical but not unusual. Very often I don't strip at all and just paint over it.

Dark Angels.
That first one is such a cool idea! I will have to remember that!
And I will try to not strip them fully next time, I was just worried it would show up some how.
Dark Angels are pretty sick, do they have any offshoots that use yellow?
