[Polar Bear]

Hi Folks,
I was just wondering if someone out there knew how to get a good cover of yellow over shadow grey. I am trying to paint up my Blood Claws - spray painted undercoat of Chaos Black, spray painted next layer of Shadow Grey (worked like a charm) but then when it came to putting the yellow over the grey, things started to fall apart. At the moment the yellow is looking streaky with lots of yellow in some parts and very little in others.
Does this mean that I would need to paint the shoulder pads white first before putting on the yellow - at the moment I am up to two coats of the yellow and still going.
By the way, I apologise if this is the wrong forum for this question.
Cheers,
PolarBear

Yellow shoulder pads (both left and right) - can be ink or any other type of yellow.
Shadow grey trim.

At the moment I have already undercoated in chaos black, second spray coat of Shadow Grey (worked really well), then I had to put two layers of white on the pads and then I put yellow ink (this actually worked really well - I like the way that yellow ink makes it look really shiny).
I guess that I will just learn from my mistake and put the shoulder pads on later on, undercoating in white from the start. Unfortunately I have already undercoated with the pieces glued on the next unit (Grey hunters) although I will be having Blood red shoulder pads for them so that is not so bad (I think that red will go over shadow grey much easier than yellow).

All hints are welcome for the future advancement of the Space Wolves Chapter's existance :w
