Anyone managed to do a good job of Marines/Contrast?
I am realllllllly torn. I was originally thinking Dark Angels Contrast + a layer of nuln oil and additional colours for guns/detailing, but I HAVE seen very bad contrast jobs, and one of my friends keeps banging on about thin coats of Caliban green, and then edge highlighting etc. (as he is not fond of contrasts for anything non organic, and also because of how wrong it can go).
I am NOT a fan of painting, I never have been, so I want to aim for a 'battlefield+' layer of impact, whilst maintaining speed. I was intending to Zenithal undercoat, to aid the impact of whatever I go with over the top, but the more I can cut out, whilst still retaining a decent look on the battlefield, the happier I am.
