Hey could you tell me the GW paints you use to paint Blue and Gold squadron markings???
Quick Question Regarding Rebel Sqadrons Painting
On mine, I used a Sharpie Paint pen for a bunch of the Yellows and blues though In my B wings I wanted the off shades of blue that only GW can have those were Lothern blue and Thunderhawk Blue. I'm not sure what Detail blue I would use for the blue squadron though.
Sharpie paint what is that???

Edited by Cev LostI just finished painting all my Imperial fighters and was contemplating how I would do the rebels. This is a great idea. Thanks!
Base paint for them I used a Vallejo green grey, it actually comes out to a nice beige white that works for most rebel ships.70.971 Then I paint on the cockpits maybe the Engine intakes a bit (ship design depending) Then sharpie them up least as decently as my shaky hands can. After that I lay down a nice wash touching up any really dark squadron colors before finally adding in engine glow (since it wouldn't be washed) And finally I'm up to what I call sealing (varnishing) and that I use a generic mat seal from walmart, it really makes GW paints pop and has really done a wonderful job on all the Tie fighters.
A lil bit of reference to my last post.
A's and Y's just finished unsealed.
