So I've seen a few people on here use saliva effects on their Wargs and monsters. I want to replicate those effects and transfer them to blood effects though.

Using a technique similar to what people have done to saliva, I want to recreate a dripping blood effect. How would I do this though? As in creating the dripping effect. A tutorial if you know of any?

I'm sure superglue was used, but I'm a bit clumsy using that and so dared not risking using it myself.

Any help appreciated :-D

Not superglue - UHU glue is what i use anyway. I explained how i do it in the comments section under the Azog model found Here

To make the effect look like blood i'm not sure - maybe its possible to stain the UHU with Tamiya clear red paint while wet on the pallet or maybe wait until after its applied to the model and dried and then stain with tamiya clear red - either way Tamiya Clear red is the key to bloodstains on miniatures.

Hope this helps.

Haha,

Cheers guys. I was thinking of painting over it after dried, although it may fall off. I'll test it first, thanks again!

If it's dripping blood you want then I believe if memory serves, you need a blond hair ( here's where Kevs wife comes into it ) and then using water effects to create the drips.
Once dry and you have the drips you want then you can go about painting them.
