When priming GW miniatures what is the best primer to use? I was in search of a
gray primer but it seems all I can find is white or black primer from GW. I
really don't want to use white because of the colors being too bright and I
don't really want to use black primer due to the colors showing up dull. Any
suggestions? Getting ready to prime my High Elf Army..
Thanks ahead of time!
Thomas
