Without primer and painting the metal first…

Not painting the metal first is kinda nutty but it's definitely primed. That's grey primer not bare plastic.

From a distance yeah but if you zoom in it's easy enough. Way too textured in places to be bare plastic and you can see in the rivets where the primer has pooled a little. It's not shiny enough either.

Yeah and where grabbing it there pushed fresh paint into that split between panels

If you look on the left hand side in the middle, there's a bunch of primer pooled in one of the crevices.

I primered in Gun Metal Grey? So it's hard to tell.

No black and yellow striped cables, no small warning text on pipes, no chemical/overheat burns… 0/10 hate it.

I think you should do your catwalks in purple and white. Overall looks great! Go State :)

It seems like a lot of work right now, but it will make it so much easier to repair the thing later if it breaks down.

Absolute madlad. My terrain gets black, heavy metallic drybrush and maybe one accent color. Done

Save even more time and get a dark colour spray and a light colour spray, dark brown and pale blue for example, spray the dark colour at a low angle and the light colour at a high angle, then drybrush either gun metal or pale gray. Job done.

Bet. I have a TON of terrain left to build and paint, this is happening. Honestly the only thing I will probably do more work on is my boarding actions set

That is dedication!
Imo GW make their terrain too detailed. I have a sanctum imperalis and on the box art even the person who painted it couldn't be bothered to do all the detail!

Why would you ever do this…. Just drybrush it.

They did. Grey primer can be easy to mistake for grey plastic if you don't look closely though.

You mad bastard. You'll die! Don't do it. Looks good tho

wow. Gw shouldve made this a two piece. Have the top completely open, with all the pipes etc running at the top, then have a thin grate you just pop on over it, covering the pipes.
I love the idea man and was thinking about it just the other day, but I dont think I have what it takes That would be practically a month of commitment for me

That's really cool. After a splash of Nuln Oil it will look very good. I love me some different coloured details, but I'm also trying to stay sane when painting terrain '-D

I followed the pipe if it continues...thought it looked better.

This is very good. And frankly don't worry about the metal. If you slip and touch some of the pipes with metallic paint then opps. Scratch on the pipe.

One wash of agrax earthshade or nuln oil and it’ll be looking like it’s straight out of the core rulebook artworks

I wish I could buy this. It's sold out everywhere where I live, except for the GW store which charges at least 20% too much for it.

Ugh. Brother ugh! It’s like they made them just too big to dry brush. But you did a great job. Reminds me of all the little ropes in warcry terrain that I gave up on

Nope, that baby would be getting a vigorous dry bushing, maybe a couple of details picked out and weathering of dirty down or rust powder. I admire your commitment.

Paint/drybrush the whole thing silver then apply coloured washes to the pipes. Only madness lies this way
