Deth Wizards – The Town Part 1
Let's get it on. The houses are assembled and gaps filled as far as possible. Now it is time to prepare them for painting.
I have my go-to for black primer, which is Hit Color Beltons RAL 9005 jet black (matt / flat). But in case of light colours or white, I don't have something similar. For the cenital light / dusting, I usually use Army Painter matt white (as Games Workshop dropped their Skull White and is only offering light greys), but that is too expensive and too light for this purpose. Why not use the Hit Color white for this? Well, it is not matt / flat, but a semi-gloss and you can't really use that - even for terrain.
So I started asking around and was recommended Spectrum Primer, which is sold by Action in Germany for less than 3 EUR per can. It is flat, it is medium gray and incredibly cheap.
And what can I say? I was satisfied. Worked really, really well. Coverage was good, no clogging up of the cans and dried in the sun rapidly.
All of the buildings (7 regular sized and the incredibly large Inn) were primed with just one and a half can. That's proper and it even provided a proper coat on the few pieces printed in black PLA.
Now I have to choose some of my cheaper acrylics. I might have som Marabu paints, that I picked up at LIDL somewhere and I can start painting.
