These colours don't exist. At least not how we are made to think they do.

Many Miniatures that are sold to us, aren't pure colours. But instead are what's known as blends. Two or more pigments, mixed together and given a fancy name and sold to us as one colour. But all it really is is a pre-mixed mix. So what's good about them, and bad about them?

Awesome subject, and presented very well. Good job!

@Marshal976 Год назад

I think blends for army painting are very handy, whereas if you're just into painting busts or single pieces the single pigment option is the better.

@FxQCGroundZERO Год назад

hi . very nice video. i was wondering if you have a full picture of the wall of collor match in your back ground. Thank you

@seangowden948 Год назад

I paint one-off, larger scale models and prefer to use goto single pigment paints and a couple convenience blends (browns, mostly.). For each color I use a primary, then a warm or cool tone of it if possible and never have a problem. BUT, for terrain, and if I played with armies that should all match, prop blends are the way to go...no question about it. Excellent video!

@laflecack Год назад

excellent points, theres a lot of smoke and mirrors in the miniature industry about paint and the more we hobbyists combat it the better. Personally with my inconsistant time schedule for painting I get a lot of use out of premixed colors helping me not have to remember ratios of mixtures during a paintjob, but if i had more time i'd like to think i'd buckle down and freestyle more! an aspiration haha

Cool - thanks.

I didn't start out with a big paint set and I'm forever trying to mix colors to fill the gaps in my collection and usually it comes out muddy and desaturated. The idea of being able to mix what I need reliably is really appealing. I see some tubes on your desk, do you stick to that type of packaging? I just went by the craft store and there are so many options. They advertise three tiers of products and there are bottles, plastic tubes, metal tubes, etc. And I'm not really sure what consistency or packaging to try. Is it easier to make single pigment paints into glazes and washes since they dont have white or black in them by default? How do you handle batch painting? In other words, how do you keep things consistent over many painting sessions and models? How do you measure out proportions for mixes you use often? I was once told Vallejo game color has some enamel mixed in to prevent wear. Would it be reasonable to drop in a little varnish when you're mixing? Thanks for the video. Goobertown went into paint mixes in several videos but I havent seen anyone really treat single pigment art paints as a more versatile solution.

@PaintmanJourneying Год назад

the tubes on my desk are Jo Sonja, and while I would say I prefer heavy body paint, [no shaking] and like the tubes. Liquitex tubes are better, simply because their fat cap allows them to stand up on end, but I like the paint in the Jo sonja. Because many Single pigments are also more transparent and semi-transparent they are much better for glazes, so not only for the reason that they're not mixed with black and white but that they are also naturally more transparent. I don't do much batch painting anymore, but I would either write out my recipies [like in my video about painting Journals], or would pick a blend base to start from and use single pigments to mix up or down in shade/highlight. I would just varnish as the end. I don't think they put enamel in but just have a satin finish which usually has a stronger durability, but only if not thinned down. But that only matters when playing and not as much when doing the painting, so a solid coat at the end is the important step for gaming minis. And ya I think that's part of my curse and my appeal, some like my videos because I paint with single pigment paints. But because that's not a large audience I don't see much channel growth XD

@NatsurinChannel Год назад

Someone should make an unofficial list of which paints are single-pigment paints. That way we could have a resource to know for example, which vallejo paints to buy when starting out, etc.

@PaintmanJourneying Год назад

I would, but the problem is is that most miniatures paint lines don't reveal what pigments are in each of them like they do for artist paint lines. So there's no way for a layperson to actually check what's in them. It would all be guessing.

@Notfritenite Год назад

glad i found your channel this is definetly my cup of tea i like single pigment paints, have you tried golden yet? theyre fantastic

@PaintmanJourneying Год назад

I do have a few golden things. I got some of their fluid acrylics, which are quite good but also very hard to remove the Satin from them while painting [varnish just fine]. So are a bit better to use with liquitex than Jo Sonja. And I know they have the SoFlat line, but many of those are blends and contain Cadmiums that it's not really worth it to me to get more paint just for the finish, plus I already have another similar set, the Turner Acryl-Gouache, that it really would just be doubling up on stuff I've already got..:P

@jonese848 Год назад

What paint case is that?

@PaintmanJourneying Год назад

So the metal one for the set of 48, that came with them. The big box at the end is a plastic plano tool case, that I took foam from another case and put it into the top of it. That foam I took for the case, was from another case which was for the vallejo air paints. So it's mostly case-ception.
