Thank you for showing the entire model and where you place the highlight and shadows. It's a massive help. So many NMM videos on RU-vid only focus on one leg, or just the chest plate and it makes following along and actually learning the entire process too difficult.
Every time I look up techniques for whatever project I am working on, I keep coming across your video's and they just fit my needs so much better. Especially because I paint mini's and do gunpla, it's like youtube said I needed my own hobby youtuber LOL. Thank you for your videos Don, they are super informative, simple to follow and hard to master!
when I first saw the pic I thought you just base painted yellow and did a contrast paint style heavy wash of brown, but clearly you had to put a lot more work into it to build up those volumes, well done buddy!
The video is very easy to follow ... get a result similar to yours without going through "disasters" I think it's quite unlikely anyway 😅🤣 As soon as I find the courage and the right subject, this will be the video that I will rotate in the background while I paint Bro ... little but sure 🤣
I think that the selection of colors is secondary to the placement of highlights and intensity of contrast. It's crazy what some painters can do with obscure colors! That's why I tend to fail; my brain doesn't seem to understand highlights properly :(
"The ugliest looking part of NMM" ugliest he said...would be VERY happy if my NMM attempts looked half as good as your "ugliest looking part" nice work m8. Saludos!!
So... you said this isn't the way you would paint nmm, but just a simplified way to do it. So how would you paint nmm? Like the leg armour of the demon cat?
I mean, I wont paint via basic layering... instead will do mu usual glayering - glaze layering. Glayering will produce softer edges and will be easier to glaze and blend. ☺️
I posted everything at Patreon... but the thinning sauce for airbrushing is jst thinner and flow improver. Highlight sauce is just watered down retarder medium. 😊
Brilliant again, sir. I only have the Game Color and Extra Opaque ranges available to me - could you tell me if Game Color Leather Brown, Plague Brown and Moon Yellow are 3 suitable shades to start with? If not, what 3 would you pick out of those 2 paint ranges? Thanks a lot!
Those are awesome paints bro! Moon Yellow is beautiful, but so vibrant. So you just have to tone it down a bit with washes or inks. I think I should paint with Game colors a bit more. ☺️🎨🎨🎨
Very cool effect! Well done Don. "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father (God), but by me." John 14:6
Hi! I came across your channel today and I know I will stay there. Your tutorials are really good for such noobs as me :D But, I have a little question- so firstly we are sketching all highlights and shadows, and once its done, we just blend them with glazes, right?
@@DonSuratos thank you very much for answer! Honestly I feel like glazing or layering with mixed colors make no difference for me, as I am beginner. Im not good at any of them so I will just do it a little by one and a little by second method. Just ordered paints that you used and hopefully in 2 days I can start doing it! Thank you for such great explanation and video 😊
I see people asking you to use other brand acrylic paints all the time despite being sponsored. 😂😂😂😂 in reality, it really shows any good paint brands gets stuff done.
Ganda po ng vid! sir question lang po, newbie palang ako with limited colors in set, pwde na po ba yung vallejo model color white yung pang highlight for any non-metalic metal paints? wala kase akong nung mga nasa vid nyo sir hehe..
