blood splatter effect

trenolds39 · 05-June-06, 12:35 AM

I've planning on painting the interior of my raidmax 668 case a glossy black, and I was wondering if I can achieve a blood splatter-ish effect with red uv clear coat if I use the one of the nozzle extensions that come with cans of wd-40. I've got 2 of the red meteor lights that I can set to a fading effect, so I think this would be cool for the theme I am going for. If anyone has had experience doing this, and could give me any advice, I would greatly appreciate it!

I would suggest spraying the UV paint into a small cup or dish so that it pools together into a liquid. Then dip a paint brush into the paint and flick the brustles with your thumb and it should make pretty good splatter effects.

I've never done it with UV paint, but with regular paints like pastels and such. Give it a shot.

Thanks for the advice man, I'll definately try that out.

Put the bag on your hand, spray until the paint puddles, throw paint violently.

Use a toothbrush full of paint, run your thumb along the bristles flinging the paint towards your target.

THUMB + BRISTLES != BLOOD SPLATTER. This is what you call a stone effect, it creates the tiny black dots you see in stones, like if airbrushing a stone. You just need to get a paint brush or something, dip it into the paint, then start swinging like a hammer, in a motion like you were hitting someone on the head with it. This will create that effect.
