This video is 4 years old so you might not see this comment, but between this and the AT-ST video I was able to replicate your techniques on a project I was scrapping (kitboshing is the word I think) together. Taking a gummy vitamin bottle and turning it into a worn star wars drop pod went surprisingly well thanks to your videos. I've only painted one other mini before so I'm about as new as they get. Thanks!

@gregzuvich1195 6 лет назад

I love this painting series. Very skilled painter. Only thing I would add is this: About the 10:30 mark he is free-handing a block to paint in. He is painting the line in a motion away from himself. It is easier to draw (and paint) a straight line towards you rather than away from you. I am no artist and certainly nowhere near as good as this guy, but I have taken enough art classes to know the how to draw or paint a straight line trick. Otherwise, fantastic work once again!

@TheRunesmythe 6 лет назад

Another amazing job; between the weathering and your drybrush sorcery, the vehicle really came to life. For such a seemingly simple technique, the fresh blaster mark really sells the illusion; it looks like it is really glowing hot. This is one of my all time favorite Star Wars vehicles and, in keeping with pattern, the Fantasy Flight model looks great; I'm really impressed with all the vehicles I've seen so far, from Imperial Assault and onto Legion. I never knew the colored panels extended onto the underside of the speeder, its good to know for when I finally get around to painting my Bandai kit.

@Sorastro 6 лет назад

Thanks a lot mate! Yes.. I scrutinised the Battle of Hoth during my research and I'm glad I did because I had never noticed the markings on the underside before (not that anyone can really see them, but I do like to be thorough!) :)

@Sorastro 6 лет назад

Hi Kelvin! Thanks for the kind words! I'm really glad that your Legion minis are turning out well :) Yes, I will be producing many more videos for Legion - in fact I finished the Veers video over two weeks ago, but there is an official approval process they have to go through (for licencing reasons) before I can release them, and this can take some time (especially when LFL are busy with the release of a new movie!) So fear not - there will be more coming soon.. :)

@Critical677 6 лет назад

Hey I really like your videos and I learn much from it. l‘m trying to paint the airspeeder and the At-St like in your videos. But I would wish that you comment more on some of the technics you are using. For example for the weathering stage you could describe how thin the paint should be or sometimes the camera could be closer (like when you are applying thypus corrosion to the guns of the airspeeder). Just seeing you do it is cool but it is sometimes difficult to get the color just like you did it. For example like the shading on the back. I tried „liberal“ amounts of nuln oil, and my speeder looks a lot darker than yours. Or the scratches on the At-St...should the black line be thinner than the white part? Also on some other vehicle I would like to see a red engine glow. Thank you for all the hard work you are doing!

@Sorastro 6 лет назад

Hi Philip! Thank you so much for the kind comment and useful feedback! It's always a bit tricky to judge how much detail to pack into the videos whilst keeping the format reasonably concise, but I truly value your suggestions :D

@Critical677 6 лет назад

Sorastro's Painting thank you! Duncan from warhammer tv is very good at summarising such infos in his videos. But you are definitly better at painting.

@GiftofChaosStudio 6 лет назад

Quick question. I use Tallarn Flesh which was an older GW paint, but I can't figure out what to mix with it to lighten it without causing "ghosting". I haven't painted minis in over 5 years so my lighter flesh tones are dried up. Any idea what to mix? Also, really cool to see this painted by brush. I'm using my airbrush for the larger vehicles and having great fun. Mini painting has sparked again!

@Sorastro 6 лет назад

Hi there! Hmm I remember Tallarn Flesh but don't think I have it any more. You could try lightening it with a pale cream colour like Screaming Skull perhaps..? :)

You should add how long all of this took you (not putting the vid together but to paint all these) in the description or at the end of the video

Ok, now *this* is very confusing. You've said in the video that you wanted to create a movie like look. I have the Star Wars Chronicles book and looked up the T-47 reference pictures in it. Those are photos of the set pieces and used models and the orange parts are all grey. My first thought was "WTF?" but then I re-watched the battle on Hoth scene and every other Speeder is orange/red... only Lukes speeder is grey. Well, how about that XD After all these years I find out that Lukes speeder is grey because of a plastic toy I painted ;) Thought you'd like that information.

Thank you for the help I don’t want to screw up my veers mini sooo I’ll make sure to watch it

Every time I watch your videos, I always wonder how you always manage to keep your paints from drying. By the time you reached the sponge stage for the orange details, my body colour would have been completely dry!

@Sorastro 6 лет назад

Hey Doc! I try to keep my paints fresh by adding extra water if they start drying out, but I will also create fresh mixes as necessary which I don't always show on cam in the interests of keeping the video flowing :)

Thank you for clearing this mystery up! :D

Nice, I'm definitely "stealing" some of these ideas for weathering the Repulsor Tank from Imperial Assault

Thanks mate! I'm glad you found it useful :)

Sorastro's Painting Don't think there's been a single video where I haven't found at least one small bit that's been useful

Hi Sorastro, would you consider doing in the future the minis of World of Smog Rise of Moloch ? I believe they are worth your time, check them out !

Dear Sorastro, Yet another masterpiece! Just catching up on my admin, as I have been overseas for awhile. Just wondering which superglue you normally use? Kind Regards Johnny

@Sorastro 5 лет назад

Hi Johnny! Welcome home! Regarding super glue, honestly I don't have a regular "go-to" and haven't really found much of a difference between those that I have used. However I am currently using one by "Gorilla" which has both "Brush & Nozzle" applicator which I really like. :)

Hiya Sorastro, Many thanks, any advice by you is always taken on board . I have also checked out Rosemary & Co brushes (I think I might have to take a second mortgage out) Could you possibly suggest any 'cheaper' alternatives. I'm glad to be home, but Er' Indoors keeps asking me to do something called 'housework' If she reads this please visit me in hospital..LoL (I hope!)

@Sorastro 5 лет назад

Ha ha - hi Johnny! I'm afraid it's been so many years since I've used any other make of brush I'm afraid I can't really recommend any alternative, except to say that if it's for dry brushing, then the Rosemary and Co Series 768 flat brushes are a lot cheaper that the Series 56 and will still do the job nicely: www.rosemaryandco.com/acrylic-brushes/red-sable-blend-acrylic/flat-brights-sable-mixture?filter_name=%20Series%20768 :)

@johnnycooper7019 5 лет назад

Once again a big thank you for your assistance. I did buy 2 x brushes from the wet palette (as per your suggestion) I'll try those out first and give you feedback. Kind Regards Johnny

is this airspeeder the same scale as the bandai 1/48 airspeeder?

@Sorastro 6 лет назад

Hi Nicola! I don't have the Bandai version so I can't say for sure but I believe they're very close in size :)

@tabletopandwargames8382 5 лет назад

Do u still have time to play all the games?

@Sorastro 5 лет назад

Hi! Yes I do get to play the games I paint, although Legion doesn't hit the table as often as something like Journeys in Middle-earth because of the effort and time required to set it up! :)
