Looks amazing! A work colleague is big into this hobby and has been trying for months to get me into it and has just given me a few figures to try out. I'm looking forward to it but watching videos like yours where you only need like 37 different paints and oils 😂 does put me off a bit.

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching I completely get that the number of different paints used seems a huge commitment when first starting out. But to get going you really don’t need everything straightaway. Best thing to do is just pick up the basic colours you need for your figures. A silver, a red, a green that sort of thing and then a wash which you can use over everything so in this case a brown wash would work well. Paint in your base colours and then apply your wash and that’s it. Good to go gaming with. Then as you get more into it you can start to acquire more paints as you need them Give this video a watch and it’ll show you what I mean about applying a wash over multiple colours ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mADYQQOH9a8.html Welcome to the hobby 👍

This channel must blow up big in audience, because your videos are so well made and produced. I really wish you the best for the future. Thanks for this good to follow guide.

@peter_hauer 8 месяцев назад

My personal problem at the moment is, that I do not have so much brush control or perhaps to much paint in my brush, so that I don't get this fine edge highlights you are producing, but I assume this is a thing practice could solve over time. Perfect example ist at 20:37 when you paint the skulls teeth and the bone. There I would have most certainly lost the shadows.

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides 8 месяцев назад

Thank you 🙏 If you can help spread the word to your hobby friends about my channel, that would certainly help. Glad you’re enjoying the channel. Really appreciate the support

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides 8 месяцев назад

Yes, there’s always going to be a certain amount of practice but there are things which you can do to make things easier for yourself. In this case I would say the bit you’re missing is testing. It seems really obvious but its something people very rarely talk about it. Before you put your brush to the model, ALWAYS test it first. I do this on the back of my hand, but you can use your palette, a scrap mini or anything you like. The important thing is to know what result you’ll get BEFORE it’s on the model. Once you know it spot on, then you can confidently start painting your mini. For fine details like highlights, just try painting a fine thin line on your hand. If you can do a clean neat line as thin as a hair, then you’re good to go. As a bonus, practicing painting ultra thin lines will also help improve you brush control and skill. Hope that helps Finally, give this a watch as I think it’ll help too ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KoRbYuAfbEk.html

@keithburden7191 8 месяцев назад

As always your videos are some of the best Hobby tutorials on YT and this DG scheme looks FANTASTIC. My only suggestion and it is a very minor suggestion to all Miniature Hobby RU-vidrs ;). We appreciate the mixture of paint brands, especially the shout out to better paint types (small flake metallics being a huge win), but it would be immeasurably helpful if RU-vidrs could give us paint alternatives during a process like this one. They might be inferior alternatives but it would mean that folks like us who won't have DarkStar or 2 Thin Coat paint brands could crack on with trying this scheme out using paints that are more common (popular types being Citadel, Vallejo and Army painter). I know for a fact that most hobbyists will go and purchase the displayed paints anyway, especially if the results they produce using replacements doesn't look as nice as the results seen here. Just a suggestion as your videos are some of the best available and the above isn't a critique, more a plus point idea. Thanks for your time and efforts 👍👌😌

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides 8 месяцев назад

Thanks man I completely get what you mean, but it’s a difficult thing to try and do for a few reasons, The first is in terms of getting the expected result. If I use a certain paint and then suggest another one as an alternative, if a viewer uses the alternative and gets a poor result it’ll reflect badly on me and I may lose credibility. The paints I pick are because I feel they give the result I’m after and will achieve the same for others. The next is often an alternative may not exist or im not aware of one. I’m still on a mission to try every paint, but I have a long way to go 🤣 Great example of this, is Scale75’s Black. As far as I know, there is no equivalent to the result that paint gives out the bottle. It’s because of these reasons I (and I suspect other RU-vidrs) don’t suggest alternatives. There are websites which do have comparison tables of similar colours across brands and I know TTC even have a little chart showing their colour’s equivalents in GW and army painters ranges. Sorry, I know that sounds like a bit of a cop out, it’s not meant to be. And honestly, if I could reliably and consistently list equivalent paints for all the ones I use, I would. 🙂

@CooCuMbEr 7 месяцев назад

i like this a lot... just started painting again at 41 years old and stopped at 17 years old what would be nice is alternatives to colours for the 2 thin coats etc as i only use citadel at the moment... but thats probably way too complicated for every video

Thanks, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. With regards alternatives for the 2 thin coats, they have a couple conversion charts you can download here www.duncanrhodes.com/ttc-paints/ Like you say, it’s very hard to do in the video cos there’s just so many paints out there and I couldn’t tell you which are close matches to another.

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides 8 месяцев назад

I can honestly say, I’m loving TTC paints. I’ll admit I was a bit sceptical that they may just have been a gimmick, but they are really brilliant paints. I don’t know what wizards or chemist geniuses they’re got mixing them up but they’re spot on. Smooth, rich and great coverage. Finish wise, I would say they’re the same as GW’s. A satin finish. I tend to give all my models a thin coat of AK ultramatte varnish to protect them and reduce any shine. Works well for me

@WilliamChoochootrain 8 месяцев назад

Were the eye lenses really as easy as just a coat of angron red clear? The end result kinda looks like there're some orange highlights/gradients. Also, you skipped over the black details like the gun casing and stick grenade handle, were those Scale75 black? Or a darker grey?

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides 8 месяцев назад

@williamchoochootrain My apologies, you’re absolutely right I forgot the step for the black which was indeed just Scale75 Black. The eye lenses have a final highlight line of Troll Slayer Orange at the bottom of each lens and a small dot of white as a highlight point. I did them right at the end but off camera, just as I wasn’t feel great. The gradient though is all down to that single step of Angron red. 👍

No, there's no medium added to anything unless it is expressly stated (and then I always give a ratio used etc) Usual advice with washes, shake them like crazy, only let them pool where you want and apply in sections so as to not flood the model. I go into quite a bit of detail about how I use washes in a recent video, maybe that will help answer some of your issues ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mADYQQOH9a8.html
