Transfer Contrast Schemes to vehicles! 

Me too, me too….

I had to pause the video and go and get one of my paint handles, never knew they could do that. Mind blown.

Lucky it’s the model he drilled into 😢

But he didn’t do the gun barrels….

What I want to know is what size hole did he drill.

You have, in one comment completely explained what The Painting Phase is.

Came here to say the same thing. I’m BRAND new to WH40K, and this is the most relatable content for me.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, and that’s the who’s of the channel so hopefully intimidation levels are minimal 👍👍👍

Aah you should’ve come over and said hi, I’m always happy to chat with fellow hobbyists, we’re you on the table near the bar?

@The Painting Phase yes, it was my daughters birthday and she's just started painting, and wanted to see how miniatures should be painted. She loved the day.

@@TheTallblade wholesome!

Thank you! Cheers!

Same, while looking for schemes. Yellow and red was not something I had considered but it looks great. I did leave the wheels off but built the rest :/

Glad we could help! 😍😍😍

Stealing that idea. Thanks!

😍👍 yep living my best life

Aww thanks Jonathan, glad you enjoyed and there’s useful tips to take away from it

Glad you like it! Hopefully more vids like this then 👍

Cheers Björn 😍👍

Terminator 1, that had loads of red didn't it. I think Peach was channeling aliens with this one. Anything made by James Cameron you're fine it seems 😂

I’m glad you liked the fingering 😂 but honestly thanks for the comment 😍

Well I’m glad those little hacks help you down the line - peachy

Absolutely!

Glad it was helpful! 😍😍😍

That’s bad luck, sorry Captain.

Thank you buddy! 😊

Hahaha! 😘

Was expecting Peachy to end up with Yellow Simpsons hands after using that spray!

😂

A couple but Peachy didn’t do the painting, so the quality ain’t great 😄

Thanks babes x

Ha! I meant to, but forgot to bring it in 🤦‍♂️

Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks 🤗

Hmm I reckon so, in the past I’ve sprayed the vehicles black, super thin wash of abaddon or or even black legion, then dry brush some highlights that match your scheme, you can then use your thinned black to tidy back up if there’s any splodges or dodgy highlights

😂🤣😂

That’s an interesting observation and one I shall explore from now on, thanks for bringing that up, never occurred to me tbh 😍👍 - Peachy

I’d say Red spray would be far easier and quicker, Though I’d recommend getting the pot colour thinning it down a fair bit (like contrast levels of thinned) and applying that all over the minis after you’ve sprayed them. As the spray has a slight different finish, it means any corrections you need to make later won’t look so jarring. 👍👍👍

A few people have suggested a matt varnish which would have a similar effect. I'd be careful using it from a can as if conditions aren't great you might get frosting.

Yes I'd think so, varnish too. I'd just test a small area first before coating the whole thing.

Hahaha! Rings true lol - Peachy

Looks like the trick is to do it twice... put down a layer of PVA and then go over the outer joins with more PVA.

If you have a super-thin superglue, then you could make a good seal with the PVA then clean the canopy with alcohol, wait for it to evaporate off, then run the superglue into the cracks from the outside. Make sure you do this in a dry room with a fan going across the part being glued. The reason superglue fogs is that it cures very quickly in contact with moisture, and if there's moisture in the air the fumes coming off the glue can literally cure in mid-air and kind of condense out onto the model (or something, don't ask me how this works!), finding it particularly easy to start to form on grease from e.g. finger prints where you held the part to glue it on! Cleaning the canopy first gets rid of the grease which seems to make it harder for the glue to attach to the plastic in the first place; you don't need to touch the part at all when it's held in place with the PVA. Working in a dry non-humid environment where you can means there's less moisture to react with the glue fumes so it's less likely to happen. Running a fan across the part (not just blowing on it!) as you glue it means that the superglue fumes get carried away from the model before they fog anything. If you wanted to be super-sure you could also paint PVA (or liquid mask or similar if you have it) thickly over the top of the clear outside parts of the canopy and after the glue is cured, rub it off. The real answer, of course, is that if you're really having trouble with PVA not being strong enough, just use a transparent and colourless two-part epoxy glue. ;-)

Yep I just do it on purpose now…..I should probably drill them 😂

Because we were dry brushing a lot we'd have churned through paper towel like nobodies business, cardboard works similarly and is more robust. Most people have some too!

@@thepaintingphase ah, ok. That makes a lot of sense. Particularly for a vehicle. I’ll give it a go when I do my next sagitaur, thanks 👍

Thanks for the heads up, very much appreciate it 👍👍👍

Pretty much.

Yup. It shocked me too - Geoff

Interesting use of a Paint Brush "lid"

Fantastic work 🍑! Really looked nice and you shared some nice techniques to get to that standard quickly! Awesome stuff cheers

Cheers!
