Hi everyone! Today a little tutorial on Colorex inks!
There are of course many translucent colors and metallic colors.
The pots are full and contain 45 ml of ink, which is much bigger than other marks of paint for a price roughly equivalent (roughly € 4, it depends on the dealer).
The main advantage of these inks is that they are not indelible, exept the three primary colors, metallic colors and black tricolor which are more resistant, although it is possible to strip. So you can work transitions once the ink dries and create very soft transitions between colors.
These inks are very useful for glazing, they create a uniform filter and dry well without creating halos (besides, you can always delete a halo if it ever created).
With a wet brush, you can remove the ink in places where you want to create the transition.
Metallic paints are fairly easy to use, in the same way as any other marks. The advantage is that the texture of the painting is similar to that of ALCLAD 2 paintings, they dry quickly and are brighter than most other marks.
CAUTION: you must protect the inks once dry. And then it gets complicated. Touching your figure too, you will stain your fingers, you must reserve these inks figures show. The only way to protect effectively is to use matte varnish spray to avoid scaring the color below!
SO, let's recap:
+:
- not indelible inks
- bright metallics
- easy to work on, to create smooth transitions
-:
not indelible inks, hard to protect your mini against eeeeevil fingers
Well, we'll stop here for today, if you have any questions, do not hesitate!
Cheers.
