@george2408 Год назад

If you look after your models you don’t need to use much. It’s not worth the risk of clogging up details. A very very light spray is enough. Also zenithal with spray cans is more than likely going to clog up details especially for someone inexperienced with spray cans

@kaytigraham2413 2 года назад

I almost exclusively use Vallejo Black airbrush primer with no zenithal. The only time I use a zenithal is on a detailed mini where the detail can get lost in a sea of black. However if I’m going for a retro eavy metal paint job then it’s a very light grey almost white primer. I feel this really makes the colours a lot more vibrant.

@TableTopReadyYoutube 2 года назад

I feel zenithal is a style choice and you defiantly need that bright undercoat for a retro easy metal feel

@notmenotme614 7 месяцев назад

The colour of the primer makes a massive difference, I really struggled to paint yellow over black primer. Instead wraithbone primer works better with yellow armour. The temperature of the primer can makes a difference, if it’s too cold or too windy or humid outside, then the primer can end up being to blotchy or grainy. A friend said you should stick the primer can up your jumper for 10 to 15 minutes so your bodyheat warms the can up. I take it a bit further my relaxing under a duvet with the primer can to warm the can up while I watch a few RU-vid vids. Another way of doing zenithal highlighting is to use a rattle can of black primer then dry brush a small amount of white or grey paint over the raised areas of the model.

@Benandkyoko 4 месяца назад

I had no issue with using sprays in the winter, but it just got a lot drier and hotter here in Japan and I did some of the new tyranids from the ultimate set... I wish I had not. The models themselves have too many small details and the spray clogs it even if you are careful. For that range of models, I will not use a citadel spray again for the base. A very light primer from a different company may be fine. Citadel base spray... no don't use it in temperatures above 26 degrees. It just dries too fast and leaves terrible detail damage.

@terlondre 2 года назад

....and no matter how bad one fails at painting, he can always spray it over with chaos black and call them Black Templars, Ulthwe, Black Legion,..... and wrap it up Nice video :) personaly i stick with grey seer. It is sort of in the middle and after using it for a while, i know what to expect when applying colors, so its more of a habbit than a preferance

What do you think about cheaper aftermarket sprays or sprays from normal paint shops, are they acryl or oil based, there's is not much info on cans. In most cases they are universal for wood metal and plasti materials and they cover very nice but I'm not sure about paint sticking to them.

@TableTopReadyYoutube 2 года назад

If you're going to look into different sprays, you'll want to make sure they are either acrylic or they will say primer on them, other wise you'll find they're lacquers. I know people use Halfords sprays

@bluedotdinosaur Год назад

If you're in a position where you can't spray for whatever reason, I have long felt Stynylrez primer from Badger is the best brush-on primer - at least black and grey. White still needs to be airbrushed for effectiveness. The other two however, go on incredibly well with a brush and harden to a perfect surface.

@TableTopReadyYoutube 4 месяца назад

if your making sure its shaken and follow other advise from the video then its likely the florida temperature. maybe teres a cooler time of the day? the issue with high temperture is the paint dries and evaperates more quickly when it leaves the can so you'll find your just getting dry paint on your miniature. try spraying a little closer to your miniature and use less frequant bursts as you spray

@galan8115 2 года назад

As i have stated with numerous tutorals like this. Can you do a version for priming multiple units at the same time? Cause hrde armies cant afford to go one by one xD

@TableTopReadyYoutube 2 года назад

Just get something bigger to stick more things to? The way to spray them is the same, your just spraying more miniatures. If you really doing a lot and want to do them quickly then don’t build them in sub assemblies. But everything I do is the same when I spray a larger amount of minutes as well.

@horuslupercal2385 2 года назад

If you're doing large numbers of minis, best to assemble them all in full and blu-tack them onto 1 side of a rule/long stick (you could literally do 4-8 in a row) and spray them all together. Might need to separate them and finish off spraying each of them into the more concealed sides/underparts, but you could easily spray a large unit of models in the space of an afternoon.

@blazichaos7181 Месяц назад

Because of this sometimes I do feel I waste a bit of time getting it fully covered before my wash/contrast so still experimenting with what’s best. The one thing I really want to avoid though is over spraying and losing detail. I tend to struggle with this a bit when spraying. Probably wouldn’t be such an issue with an airbrush. Great video!

@daniellukacs8792 3 месяца назад

Hello There! Following up from the Tau commander video i checked out this one and following step by step i've managed to get the result that you have at 3:50, the problem is that my primer partly came off from a slight touch which i presume is because the paint itself is faulty since i've painted at 20 C after 3 minutes of shaking and 1 hour of drying. Also i've wanted to ask did you sand the white miniature between 3:50 and 4:40 or something? It looks a lot better then after priming.

it's really a personal choice on what you prefer working over. honestly I tend to use what I have at the time. so I have Orks undercoated leadbelcher, wraithbone, grey seer etc etc. I do tend to stay away from chaos black though, I like a good midtone or light colour. I would use chaos black for vehicles and things like mega knobs if they have a lot of black armour.

@TableTopReadyYoutube 2 года назад

I'm gonna assume these have been mixed with thinners or are they spray based? if you are mixing them with thinners, sometimes the thinner can effect how that primer performs, especially if its a different brand. I know Vallejo doesn't work very well with Mr Hobby for example. the Vallejo thinners are pretty universal though.
