Yeah, sadly that footage got missed, I apologize, but it's really just stipple with a big round brush roughly onto the shield with a few different whites (what I used on the skeletons), then two thin layers of the contrast paint on top.
Honestly, I think Newsh might be better than streaking grime, since you can just mix variety of color with it to achieve specific one. Cannot wait for what you cook with it Mr. V. Also Akhelian Green looks really nice.
Newsh seems interesting, Lyla Mews video on it brought it to my attention but I'm still on the edge with it. Question for another HC Video: What would an Ulgu inspired Base look like in your opinion?
Rank&Flank has some unique charm. Especially armies like Khemri or Empire of Dust (Mantic). Sadly WFB never solved a problem with troop type units no one wanted to take :D
Nice one mate, I have a TK box coming so need all the inspiration I can get to quickly paint the skellies, I might spend more time on the dragon though
Man I'm really excited to see more people playing with this (Lyla Mev I think was the first I saw?) I wonder if there's application for this in a low ratio for wet blending?
Incredible job! Great result for only 3 hours of work. I noticed that you primed and painted the shields separately. Once painted, do you glue the shields to the skeletons with plastic glue? I used to paint bits separately and then glue them, but found that the plastic glue isn’t as reliable when glueing painted bits together.
Sure, I want dark in the recesses and separating the elements, when you start from an even base color, it's harder to build those clean, dark recesses back in.
Hey Vince. Once the model and shield are each painted separately you glue them together. The paint holds fine even though the plastic is painted ? Noob question lol. I have nv done sub assembly painting
Vince, one of the things I appreciate about oil washes is how much control I have over the level of shading I end up with, since I can remove as much as I like, or even take it all back off, if it's not working. It would seem like, due to the acrylic nature of Newsh, that you are limited in how much you can remove after it's applied. Is this the case? Would using a retardant make it behave more like an enamel wash in this respect?
Those that you saw are very unique, they are for retail stores, so not a normal consumer product. You order them from retail set-up for commercial businesses.
I wish the dislike button was still around because I asked my wife for her nail polish wipes and she told me to stop taking her stuff just to play with my toys.
@@ramza813 Not only are you wrong you were so wrong that it was hostile from just being ignorant. You were rude to speak if you weren't going to speak truth.
Hola Vince!! Does the newsh chemical composition gives acrylic paints the qualities of oil paints? Like the transitions and smoothness that you can have when painting with it in a model by removing it, thats the thing we use it for normally. Luv the vid❤
I think they look great, and you make me sick! Lol I need to paint some skeletons and I’ve never done it before I would have never used these colors in that order in my wildest imagination. Now I’ve got a starting point for mine and I’m going to try to emulate what you did with the color that I have. Thank you so much for posting.
Thanks for the video vince and turning me onto newsh. Im painting my tomb kings now and have been using streaking grime but will now look into newsh! Awesome paint jobs btw
Little off topic. But when doing. A zenithal highlight. (Over black Vallejo primer) using white air from Vallej, mixed with flow improver. My white is dotty. Changed air pressure with no avail. Any ideas?
So white is always going to be somewhat spotty over black, an airbrush makes paint into tiny dots, but white is thicker with larger pigment, and it shows the dots more (so it's always happening to some degree, but white over black really shows it AND the thicker paint makes it harder to break up). Some options - 1) Don't use pure white primer, use a near white paint like ivory, that will break up more. 2) Turn up the PSI to 40+, 3) Use a little more thinner/flow improver and build up the white more slowly. 4) Try a white ink, though you'll want to varnish then after this. Hope that helps.
Interesting product, only just a bit into the section focusing on it, but it seems be me (at least in the capacity it was used for these skeletons) to be a product that can somewhat mimic oil washing, but with acrylics? If so how is the staining vs oil washes? Seems like a really interesting product especially considering the range of acrylic paints vs oil
Newsh is specifically marketed as an alternative to oil washing, so you're correct on that; the main difference is that you won't achieve quite the intensity of oils from what I've seen, and it can be harder to work with due to both a much tighter time limit, and the fact that you're still left with an _acrylic_ wash, not oil, so cleaning it up could potentially damage whatever acrylic paint is underneath, if you're not careful and/or didn't varnish before use.
This looks interesting. I've used streaking grime, and am trying oil washes right now, but having something acrylic based is tempting. So if I understand right you mix it with regular paint then apply that as an all over wash (like oil/grime) and then remove it?
Switch over the colors to more grey and white. Then when you do the Newsh, use a more black brown, maybe even with a little blue in it and you should have them feeling much colder.
You mentioned in the video that you really hated working with the Vallejo Liquid Gold - would you still recommend using it for this task or was your use of it in this case mostly to maintain continuity with your previously painted miniatures in the same army? If you wouldn't recommend it for this, is there another that you would recommend instead? I know in previous videos you've mentioned your love for the Vallejo Metal Color range, would a better alternative be the gold from that range (or perhaps one of the light silvers with a yellow or brown wash)?
It would be made to spend more then 10 mins a model for basic line troops especially ones from a crumble to dust/instantly remove wholesale units force like Tomb King's or their equivalent.
It appeared like during some of the "wipe away" stage of using the Newsh, you ended up wiping down to bare plastic underneath the base coat. Did I see that correctly? Has this been an issue you've experienced before? I will often have that problem when wiping away oil washes as well, and was hoping that Newsh might help solve it.
10ish min re-activation time with a wet brush - can you go back in with paints right away or do you recommend waiting 10? 15? before continuing to paint after having slathered on something diluted with Newsh?
Great stuff as always Vince! Do you have any suggestions for painting my men-at-arms with some weathering techniques to dirty them down a bit. Painting their shields and other parts with the fancy heraldry colours and then getting them to look faded or a bit battered?
Vallejo Xpress seem to be less blotchy and have a longer working time. Have you tried mixing Xpress medium with Contrast paints to see if it passes on those properties? If so, is there a rough ratio you use for this?
I know you plan to experiment with newish a bit more but from your perspective and experiences so far, do you think newish would be a great tool to use for the enamel washes or oil washes that are popular with grim dark style?
Besides the obvious (need for toxic chemicals), have you found any ither benefit to Newsh vs an oil wash? If we already have, and use oil washes, is there anything Newsh brings that's different?
I'm starting using this for my Malifaux minis to give it that nice dirty western aesthetic, and it's looking great so far. Thanks for all of your video Vince!
Oddly thinking about seeing how many High Elves I have left since the dark elves don't really have rules. It sounds like Old World is going to be taking over our LGS every Sunday.
Vince, have you tried using mr color leveling thinner with the vallejo liquid gold ( or tamiya x20a with some of their acrylic retarder?)? Actually, i will just try it and let you know what happens on the next video. Youre right its a beautiful oaint, but a PITA when youre set up for water based paints.
Great technique, definitely seems like light acrylic version of streaking grime and that's okay (specially since I noticed I didn't use mine for a while and I think it's ruined) non-video aka tomb kings related, I remember you did some beastmen skin videos (planning to finally try AoS this year) and I'm not finding it, at least not with 'beastmen' or 'beasts of chaos' from the hobby cheating vids (think you painted the warcry or small box of 'em)
one this i learned is mixxing in some Army painter airbrush medium into the paint alongside newsh, it turns it more into an oil like wash. I like it, but it really hasnt replaced oils, if im in a hurry, and want something like oils, ill use it, but they dont replaced them IMO
Here in Norway the stiring sticks from the paint store is not free, its like between half a euro to 1 euro per stick. Pretty enoying but it is what it is. Going to have to pick up that Newsh medium and try it out, had not seen that before, even though i own most of the monument paints
That Newsh sounds interesting, seems like it could stand in for the long OOP Plastic Soldier Company rattlecans for weathering tanks, that were the same paint (albeit spray) on, wipe away a few minutes later.
Excellent video! I would definitely be interested in a more complete Newsh review. I've been experimenting with it and have been struggling to get results I like.
No toxic chemical, no special tools, no additional oil paints, full range of any acrylic colors you have already. That being said, the effect is similar, it's just another option. :)
Vince, my apron finally bit the dust (truth be told I just want a new one, but I’m sick of repairing the old one, which is YEARS old). What is a good brand for comfort and durability?
I wonder is the consistency of Newsh rather like Gel-Medium (i.e. Scalecolor), more runny like Lahmian medium or even like Contrast Medium. Usually I used pre mexied mediums and I wanted to try to add more drying retardant into it, to see if I can get similar results. Vince, do you have an idea about the composition?
Do you like the result of Newsh more than traditional Oilcolours removed with white spirit? Are the colour nuances at the end small like oilcolours? Would it please be possible that you show more the use of an airbrush with speed paint projects. Thank you for this great videos! I am a big fan of your work.
Most people ask in the comments for less airbrush (so I try to keep it simple as for stuff like this). It's easier than oil paints (no solvent, no long dry time, etc.).
