starting up is hard.. You gotto get help from friends(like you owe them for later, eighter in cash or setting up shop carpenting). Doing everything alone is really hard. Some people make it, but there is the general economy flow. If it takes a dip, people don't have money to shopping.. Its a Risk eighter way
If you're ever in South London check out Bad Moon Cafe. They've been around for a few years now and are always super busy. They provide gaming spaces for tabletop games, magic and supply board games and hold regular tournaments. They've also got a cafe with liquor license. In the early days they had limited GW products but now sell loads of different hobbying supplies.
It’s a tough gig RU-vid, hours upon hours of filming and editing etc for 50 views 😂 I’m looking forward to this, keep it coming dude and all the best for the new business!!!
It’s personal taste bud. I pin washed one with agrax but I didn’t like it too much; I just feel like the gold does such a good job shading and highlighting itself that it’s not needed 🙂. But I know some people that prefer it the other way. Just don’t go too heavy and kill the shine!
Awesome job. I have my father's gold & brass leaf from his old sign-writing days as a painter in the late 40s-70s. I have it with my paint collection and considered using it, but too afraid to do so, since it is real gold, not the newer fake stuff - I know you can still get real gold leaf, but it is pretty expensive. With your presentation I now have an idea of what to try. Rather than rely on seeing it done on flat paintings. Subscriber +1 🖌🖌🖌🖌🖌 out of 5
So when you talked about priming colors I instantly started wondering how a yellow over red zenithal prime would look, and maybe push some of the shadows with some magenta or violet.
I FINALLY was able to make time and watch this. It's absolutely awesome. I'm going to crack my Custodese out of the pile of shame tomorrow and get to gilding. I was thinking of priming them white, and giving them a light coat of yellow and dark umber ink. What do you think? Should i just go white primer?
Coat of yellow underneath the gold sounds good bud! Defo make it more vibrant! I’d do a test piece with the ink just to get the finish you want - you don’t wanna flood the model/go too far and kill all that shine by accident 🙂. I tried a pin wash and I felt like it didn’t really add much since the gold does the job of highlighting/shading itself!
Hmm, I have some coloured leaf/foil that I use as inclusions for resin dice pours, but I also have some spare Tyranids lying around... Maybe time to give my bugs some shiny shells! Great video, very chill vibes. Would love to see more footage of you actually working on your models while you're talking through the process, though! Looking forward to the next one.
Yes, I felt it was a bit too “classroomy”, but there was a lot of information I wanted to share 🙂. I actually cut some out because I was concerned it was too much. But yes, if I do another gilding video it’ll be a lot more doing and less laying ground work!
@@Grahamshobbycorner No kidding! It's a very unique take. As someone who typically watches this type of video while I do my own hobby work, more is always better; I love listening to people talk about their work, so honestly more is always better!
great idea! will probably steal this if youd like to add a sort of gilding to the raised area in the seal, I can recommend gold coloured permanent markers. at least thats what i use for my dnd games
Noob question, as someone who doesn’t do the Warhammers. Is looks like the gilding goes on the whole model but then only shows up where your metal areas are? Is that because the gilding under the painted areas make the painted areas look different / better, or is it because gilding only those areas would suck?
