Hey guys! I'd just like some tips on painting using a sharpie. Currently i have Emerald, Blue, Red, Bronze, Gold, Black, and Silver.
Any simple tips? My wash technique isn't exactly reliable.

This is the method I use for washes, provided by ArtfulConch:
Take a bottle cap, and fill it with water. Put a drop of dish soap in, and a drop of paint. The more paint you use, the darker it is. Mix it up and paint away.
Also, I use acrylic paint.

Now, if you're interested in painting whole figures, I would stongly recomend paint pens. Those are what I use, and they are pretty inexpensive last I checked.

How do you apply a wash? And will it do anything different from the shoe polish weathering?

Kinda.
I put the paint on the brush and put it one the figure and use a rag to get it how I want it
i use A SMALL AMOUNT OF PAINT
If the paint is dripping = to much
As for your question not really but paint will dry fast

If that's the case, due to my limited knowledge of Sharpie customs, I can't really help. Sorry 'bout that.

I painted my silver battle rifle with a sharpie and it came out pretty good. However, sharpie will not stick well and can be scratched off with ease.
