What a banger background song. Trovarion style.

[InsongWhang]

Hell yeah. I've got 20 of these pyromaniacs to paint, and I will definitely be using this

[burrowsforge]

Very cool, only thing I might add to a flamer like that is some flat black to the very end/tip to simulate soot!

[NitroModelsAndComics]

I've been doing this on my drag race car model headers for years using the transparent Tamiya acrylics. Good stuff.

[millroll]

That looks great. I heat treat steel pretty often and it looks spot on to my eye. Very nice!

[skyhymitch]

Not only the flamer, but I like the rugged look of the armor too.

[katamattyon]

That looks incredible, definitely adds something extra to the model!!

[lintrom]

Adds so much more character to the weapon. Incredible 🔥

[norwardradtke]

Yeah layering different things color glazes is great for building gradients, I learned this technique oil painting but have found all of the same techniques transfer over

[spartastic]

This is actually exactly what I was looking for

[SpiritStoneWarrior-yxgs]

Honestky this was a game changer for me! Now all my flamer & melta weapons looks 1000x better!!!

[SonofGuilliman]

This convinced me to buy Infernus Marines

[darbypea]

I love the blued metal effect. Very cool and realistic

[NickCowell]

I use a very similar technique but 3 shades - Seraphim Sepia, Druchii Violet then Drakenhof Nightshade

[Nicolas-Cage-]

You can also get this effect, I’ll be it a lesser version, with retributor gold/runelord brass followed by drucchii purple and drakenhoff blue. I’m relatively new to the hobby so sorry if I got the names wrong

[mrmlmxyzptlk]

I have a bunch of infernus that I was trying to figure out how to paint their barrels/vents...I certainly know how I'm doing it now!

[BrendonDow]

I like how the brush makes it look like flames coming out of the flamer in the thumbnail

[drtyboy]

Looks damn SWEET
You Warhammer folks are on a whole other level with a paint brush.

[starlightdragon]

I did this with a Thermal Cannon on an Imperial Knight, I added a mix of orange, yellow and white to the inside of the gun barrels, varnished them, blackened the metal in some spots, and repeated it on a melta gun.
Then I added Thermal stressing to a Las Impulsor, I love these paint jobs

[why]

Im never painting a minifig in my life but I'm stoked for this effect, it looks so good! 😂
