So I just ordered a new Land raider and realized that I haven't even begun to paint my other marine vehicles. Anyone know of a great way to paint vehicles? I just know that with all the large surfaces I'm going to get splotches and uneven coats of paint.

Two words....spray paint.Originally Posted by Ironbullet
The Army Painter system. Hit it with the spray, brush paint all the details and do your weathering if you're into that kind of thing, slather a wash over the whole thing, and the vehicle's done.
Washes are tricky to do with vehicles. It's hard to get the wash smoothly applied to the large empty plates of (especially SM) vehicles without it pooling and showing brush marks. This is the main reason why none of my SM tanks are painted, my entire army is washed, and I can't match the color used without the wash, but the washes look bad on vehicles.
