I filmed this before the season finale of House of the Dragon so I hope this video isn't a memorial!! @HeyGears invited me to offer you guys a discount on their printer so I figured what better thing to print than an epic dragon from @LootStudios?! I don't normally airbrush on this channel but I've gotten questions in the past about using contrast paints through an airbrush so here you go! Yes you can, and yes it looks great!

Here's the link you need to use the discount offered!
Special Purchase Link: https://store.heygears.com/referral/reflex086
Promotion Date: July 10th - August 10th 2024
Offer: $200 discount + 2 bottles of PARP10 resin

Model used is called Ashgex from the Panshaw under Siege collection
from https://lootstudios.com/

Basing scheme:
AK Terrain Dark Earth texture paste
Ryza Rust (dry) brush
Ushabti Bone (layer) dry brush

Here's how and why I prime the way I do!
Two different rattle/spray cans are used-one full solid coat of Chaos Black, and a lighter coat of Grey Seer sprayed from above to add light/dark areas. The lighter coating of grey seer adds a small amount of grit(too small for the eye to see) from above to give the contrast paint a better surface to cling too. Contrast paints don’t work well on black primers, the colours won’t show up well.
Here’s a short showing the process, if you have any other questions please let me know!
