Painting mini's that impress on the tabletop doesn't have to be stressful, This channel is here to help guide you through fairly simple painting methods for miniatures that are a nice balance of ease to paint, and visual satisfaction and to bring your grey tide of miniatures into battle ready warriors
Cheers for this great video, mate. Just subscribed to your channel. I'm starting a Necron army after a few years out of painting and I'm going to try using this paint scheme
Nice to see some tech that's air brush free. I've been struggling with my sorce lighting, so this should help nicely make my tau much better thanks lots
Ï am new to airbrushing. Can I sask you what pressure are you using? I cant seem to get as close as you with the airbrush without blowing away the paint and spiderwebbing.
Its also a mixture of paint thickness, so if your spiderwebbing up close Its a mix of your paint being too thin and your pressure being too high Personally i would practice on some scrap paper and keep lowering your pressure until you find a nice sweet spot I actually dont have a set pressure i always use i just adjust a bit before each new project or paint i use until its something i’m happy with
How much pressure do you use for the airbrush. I just bought a new airbrush and it seems to blow away the paint when I get close to paint the small orbs. Any tipps for that?
Here I am one year after having watched the video for the first time, finally come around to finish some necron models. I'm struggling a bit with this kind of fine detail work with the airbrush because I can't seem to find the right dilution/psi ratio to paint this close to the model. In the comments I've read that you use undiluted ink, I've tried that with 30-35 psi to avoid any speckling but the pressure seems too high to get that close to the model. Do you have any advice for that?
Personally i would keep turning the pressure down and down until you find a nice sweet spot between speckling/blowing the ink away You’d be suprised you can spray the inks pretty well with quite low pressure
Hi this guide is great. I want to ask for your opinion. Im thinking of painting my small figure like instead of matching the color of the terrain, i just want it like WHITE, like going invisible. or if you look at clear resin, the color tone of clear resin. will it be possible? thanks.
I’ve never messed around or changed with any of the nozzles on my airbrushes , just always kept them clean and controlled the pressure. What trouble are you having
@@PelicanPainting well it is a very cheap airbrush and id cloggs up pretty quickly. it has a 0.2 mm nozzle wich I read that that could be hard for beginners. I tought I needed such a small nozzle for the necron glow details as they are very small, thats why I asked wich size nozzle you are using.
@@marcmann100 hmm if its clogging your tip you may have your paint a little thick.. for airbrushing fine details you need to have you paint thin as hell, Some people moan about this comparison being confusing and dumb but it works for me to kinda visualise.. If you match the consistency of something like milk?, “like how runny milk is if it was poured onto something or on a spoon? but with the solid colour too that milk has so its not transparent from being too watery And then you’d need to match your air pressure high enough to spray it properly where its not spitting/spattering. But also low enough that it just doesn’t blow the paint around everywhere like a spidery star pattern, you’d need to play around with this each time you mix the paint to adjust
Thanks man I really should get uploading soon, I did try a necron blades method that was totally different to the others. But it didnt look as good in reality as in my head
Hey Buddy, I've just recently got into the world of Warhammer and your tutorials , tips and tricks have been so helpful! Thank you for putting the effort back into this amazing community 👍
Oh thanks so much man ! I really appreciate that ! I’ve actually had a year away from warhammer myself sorting out other things But i’ve actually got a new boxed set arriving tomorrow that i want to get back filming for
Haha i’ll take that as a compliment for sure ! Thanks for that I film my final shots infront of those strip LED lights, And the paints are all shown in the tutorial They’re fluorescent but i dont film them with any special edited glow and the background i use for my final shots is a wallpaper GW gave out one Christmas time If you’d like i can show you some photos of them in the normal daylight if you want to see them a different way
@@PelicanPainting 😳 I'm sorry, Love your videos n work.😅 I was self reflecting on my own work, I've assembled many models but painted few. I've yet to be happy about how mine turn out. Didn't think a comment on a year old video would be called out so quick lol... I'm embarrassed. I'll be happy to edit or delete. Truly no offense intended ❤🙏
Haha no no your totally good don’t worry ! I see it as a compliment if the glow looks that convincing that people think blacklights could be involved haha
