Liquid Green Stuff as a texture paste

Originally designed to fill gaps in failed finecast miniatures it does a really bad job at that. However it works great for adding texture to models and fixing problems with the "Chinese import" quality Games Workshop terrain

Liquid Green Stuff as a texture paste

For this demonstration I picked a super-glossy-flat element typical of the new Games Workshop terrain piece quality (a glaring lack of texture).

  • I covered it flat with Liquid Green Stuff,
  • Then I applied a black undercoat
  • followed by Mechanicus Standard Grey roughly drybrushed over it
  • and finished with a delicate drybrush with Dawnstone

You can compare this with other texturing methods I reviewed and decide which one suits you best for a given project.

Black is one of the challenging colours as how you add darker shades to something that is technically as dark as things go? Fortunately real world objects are not perfect quantum black bodies and are actually grey so the trick is to find a shade of grey that will make our brains think its black. For me it's Vallejo 306 Dark Rubber from the Panzer Aces line. »

As official sources at Games Workshop claim it has been exactly 30 years since the first Space Marine hit the stores. Catalogues published in the 90s and 00s claimed 1984 but its not important as every day is a good excuse to drink to the health of Imperial Space Marines! Read on to see the very first models as well as all 8 Space Marine Power Armour variants. »
