Hey bud. What’s the paint pad you are using ?

@Floodric1991 3 года назад

Really cool. It would be interesting to have a skeleton hoard, with each model having slightly different tones. Would keep the unit cohesive but add nice interest

@simonleach6632 3 года назад

All three look really good, and pretty easy too, I'm absolutely with you in the pin washing thing, it is a super powerful technique, takes longer than just slapping a wash all over and letting that do the work, but nothing makes the details on a model stand out better than a pin wash!

So many skulls! Making a video with options to do bones is spectacularly helpful! Thankee for this. Looking forward to a “fixing bad priming with painting” video!

@gregmccormack5709 3 года назад

Thank you for taking the time to detail this process.I'm definately going to be mixing and playing with my skele's colors/shades after seeing this, Cheers!

@paulbaker5256 3 года назад

I’ve got a book called “Empire of Death”, which is all about European ossuaries and displays made from human remains. I use it all the time as a reference for painting. Hardly any of the bones are “bone” coloured. They range from Steel legion drab through Karak Stone. Others you would glaze with Mournfang brown. Many more are bleached, so rakarth flesh through to pure white.

@NerdySatyr Год назад

That's some incredibly control with the contrast at around 4:00, will have to bring this into my painting repertoire!

@Dannos3d 3 года назад

Thanks and great vid. I find bone very difficult to paint. This has helped a lot. I would love to see a similar vid but showing the horns you did on that ork mini

@bevanwilson8820 3 года назад

I am definitely going to be adding some layer paint the base of my next go at any white/off white things. I often get a bumpy surface and I'm keen to see if this helps! Some interesting things to try with bone too. So many things to try, so little time!

Yup - we are waiting on restocks of a single brush size for M and S sets currently, lockdown means that we're not getting the volumes that we're ordering in one big go, but we have small regular restocks several times a week, so the wait shouldn't be long.

@spcwolf 3 года назад

New to watching your videos. I’m really enjoying them- QUESTION: when you start painting a mini you’re using what I think of as a dry brush- the reason? And how do you wash or care for them?

@ArtisOpus 3 года назад

Welcome, buddy! You can layer traditionally or stipple/smoosh with a drybrush. This is something I tend to use my drybrushes for as it's a little heavier. Check out Ultimate Guide to drybrushing and Flawless Blends tutorials. A lot of my cleaning is done as I paint, they'll do a good job at explaining and showing this.🤞😊

@mortifactorsmiko4668 3 года назад

I love your videos and have learnt a lot. I was wondering if you had any advice for someone who is doing mortifactors (bone white + black armour, love skulls and bones) I'm not sure how to make the armour, the skulls/bones and the purity seals/parchment not sort of all become one colour. How would you approach this? Thanks for all your vids and your brushes.

@angylizard9344 3 года назад

@LostJasonR 3 года назад

@meredoc2011 2 года назад

What color do you use for the tattoo and spiral art on the shoulders of the orc model?

@leonardozummo4486 3 года назад

This is a very good job. It would be interesting to make a comparison between these "modern" techniques with the older one. I mean, when the Shade and layer colours didn't exist, the washing was made with a normal colour, using more water. Maybe the modern colours (shade, etc..) can give a more complex effect in slightly less time.. buuut I'm afraid they're a commercial solution for the lazy painters! What do you think about it?

@ArtisOpus 3 года назад

Really interesting idea, I've seen some other peeps paint eavy-metal style which is close to this, but just layering from black would definitely be a real change, now we're privileged

@archangel4580 2 года назад

Can you do the ancient bone technique on skeletons with a zenithal highlight?

@ArtisOpus 2 года назад

Absolutely, hybrid techniques are my favourite :) could even do a shade from below

@arthurphilip743 9 месяцев назад

@@ArtisOpus Could you apply the basecoat through an airbrush over a zenithal? .. and when you apply the basecoat is it meant to be an all over base, or do you still maintain the top down lighting effect when applying a basecoat over a zenithal? ( I hope this question makes sense..)

@camy252camy3 Год назад

Is there really a big difference between Agrax and that Nuln oil/sepia mix? How does that further compare to Skeleton Horde (contrast paint). I'm trying to simplify my paint scheme as much as possible but I really like your white bone version. Could I use grey seer base coat instead of celestra?

@raptoid2863 Год назад

How do you maintain the round/goat hair style drybrushes? I think I messed mine up by trying to clean like I do with my normal brushes, masterson soap and water. There's a lot more fraying from one clean on mine than on yours which have probably seen a lot more action.

Ok...i have an issue maybe you might know the solution.... Im painting 4000 points of Soulblight gravelords... and i have a really cool armor paint job im doing... it ends with a really flashy vampire red... but to do it... i need to paint with an airbrush, and theres no way ill be able to not paint some of the bone while im doing the main spraying for the armor.... is there a good technique i could use to RE-apply a white base coat to the bone that will be bright red...and follow the steps you did... without getting it to thick? sorry to ask!
