I've posted a pretty detailed process by which I used spray paint and varnish to quickly paint "Space Rangers" by em4 miniatures. You can find details, photos, and a few bloopers here:
link I hope if you're a pressed-for-time painter like me you find this helpful! |

Very cool! I liked the red marine, but I'd go with gray too. I remember when that box of 30 first came out from Grenedier. They are considered SM knock off, but really look nothing like them at all. While mine are long gone, i want to get more to use as Space troops, maybe Clone Troopers in heavy armor, and 15mm battle suits. |

Nice article and the pictures show that they are really nice paint jobs. Well done. |

The red guy and the gray guys don't look bad at all! I still have most of a box of the Grenadier release of these, molded in a dark red glossy plastic that was pretty difficult to paint over. Looking at your results, I'm feeling inspired to give 'em another try. |

My son and I have over a 100 of these. They are nice if bulky and paint up decently. Thanks, John |

I think for a quick job, and to get'em on the table, this isa good solution. Good pics and thanks for showing what didn't work. Good job! |
