Dip them man and get back to a real army... I can even subcontract them if we do not tell prime he says I put my paint on with a spoon I would love to spoon feed those brits...

I believe I said trowel. And only due to the rough, uneven nature of the paint. Your colours were all neatly laid out and in the right places. It was just that the smooth flat surfaces were a little lumpy.

you said spoon and the worst part is it was air brushed on with very thin layers of it was also my fist go at wet blending...

The rough bits were all the same colour grey, so maybe it was the paint you used? The blending looked fine.

And I thought that your World Eaters were your first try at wet blending?

those were oil painted I for the most part... these were done with Tamiya and GW paints watered down with the wet pallet.. I though I gad made some real head way...

To be honest, when I was doing the shoulder pads on some of my Blood Claws, I used multiple layers of thinned down yellow paint and it came out a little lumpy. I found that if the first layer wasn't totally dry, the second layer on top came out very messy.

He said trowel

that is something to think about... I am not sure what the problem is... I personally do not see the lumpiness... but I am a bit of a narcissist when it comes to my own paint jobs I have a hard time taking critiques and self critiquing...
