The worst mistake I ever made on a model was using too much paint. It was the captain model from the Assault on Black Reach, I primed it black, as most people do, and I painted it in a decent Ultramarines colours. I was un-satisfied with the gold and silver staps along his chest, so I redid them…Four times. Then I had enough of the Ultramarine colours, primed it black again. Ditched the ‘black marine’ project, and primed it white and put it into White Scars colours.
If you thought it was over…you are wrong. I also tried to purity seal it after all those coats of paint (some veterans may know where this is going) and lo and behold, it frosted on me.
Ouch…Valued at 79ยข normally, I think this one in particular would go for just a few cents.
I think that the worst part of this image is that I wasn’t moving the camera while I took the picture to make it blurry. It actually is like that!
