He's more of a skilled media presenter of painting person. Masterpieces from geniuses are actually on coolminiornot website.

You're welcome!

No, you are!

This works?:'D

That's loaded brush technique.

@@larry4014 Yeah, it does. It's best used for small areas though, because it's a bit less controlled and can be less smooth. But on the upside, it goes very quick.

Now he did.

I've been wet blending my highlights in. It's tough and it takes a long time but it's the best I've gotten my highlights to look.

Wade Long oh man you asked for it!

Let me know how it goes!

Another thing you could try is flow improver; in my experience, flow improver tends to keep the paint thinner and wetter for longer than something like drying retarder. In general, most (if not all) flow improvers will call for them to be diluted to a specific percentage with water, which should also help you keep the paint wetter longer.

I'm guessing you mean the film, in which case I'm referencing this photo ( futurewarstories.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-weapons-of-sci-fi-morita-rifle.html ); the color of the uniform/body suit underneath is a light gray with a slight warm tone to it (something like Vallejo Game Color Cold Gray, which despite the name is actually a warm gray, or some GW Dawnstone mixed with a small amount of Ushabti Bone) while the armor is a dark gray-green, much like an olive drab (most dark olive drab colors should work). If you plan to use a wash for shading, I would recommend either Army Painter Military Shade or GW Coelia Greenshade with either Army Painter Dark Tone or Vallejo Model Wash Gray. Highlighting the body suit, I would go with adding in an off-white (like more Ushabti Bone or Vallejo Model Color Iraqi Sand) and the armor with something like Straken Green or Nurgling Green (GW), Vallejo Game Color Dead Flesh or Army Painter Necrotic Flesh.

I like to use it initially to start a transition between two colors. I can't think of a specific time wherein wet blending is preferred. On super small areas where you can't apply a whole lot of paint, it can be difficult, but other blending methods are also difficult in that same situation. I use it rather liberally all over a model. It really does come to life on large surfaces, however, because then you can see all the transitional colors.

I have the same question but to me it seems like he does it in up-and-down motions. If it was only one direction he could have moved away all the paint from top to the bottom, creating difference in saturation.

From my own experience, sounds like the paint is too thinned down. You may need to add a "paint base" to the paint you're using, this is the solution that houses the pigment. One of my "I don't have the cash for that stuff" tricks is to add either a thicker matt or hi-gloss finish to the paint, but it must be THICKER than the paint you are using. Although blending should smoothly blend, if the paint is too "liquid" it just becomes one uniform coat. Another tip would also be to do an initial layer and let it dry, go over it with the same color and then proceed to layer down the next paint, it gives a strong presentation of the initial color, and will not be faded out by the second coat. I went to school for art, not saying I know the whole subject matter, but these are some tricks we use to give the illusion of blending or to compensate for cheap paints that were too "watery".

First, dry time extender is your friend. Second, break the piece down into smaller chunks. Instead of blending the whole thing, blend one fold at a time. Third, in that same vein, look at Scott's video on glazing, as that's also a part of getting a smooth blend.

Tiziano Lena yes I am licking my brush, and I don't know if it's safe 100%. A lot of painters do it, and it is "non-toxic" whatever that means. It probably shouldn't be ingested, so if you can avoid brush licking you probably should.

Or u could just use 2 brushes one for each colour

It takes tons of practice you won’t get it right a lot just keep going at it and eventually you’ll start understanding what works best while you’re applying it. Same with the other harder techniques just keep practicing and you’ll get it!
