Excellent video as always. And you said something in passing that was an “OMG” moment for me: “don’t move around wet paint as it will create texture!” That was pure gold! THANK YOU! 🙏 I have been doing that for years and thought I hadn’t thinned my paints enough. It’s been driving me crazy. Thank you. Just another reason to watch and support your videos! Thank you, Sir! Cheers 🍻
Awesome series of mediaeval vids thank you, perfectly timed as I wanted to go back over a first attempt at French Agincourt knights that never really succeeded.
Great video! Still amazed by the power of marine juice! However, I prefer Army Painter as a company, so i keep to their products, which makes finding a replacement recipe tricky. I have considered the dark skin tone wash thinned with speedpaint medium, as it is sark but still has some red/purple tones. Have you found a useful alternative with the new AP fanstic line?
Question, I've been mixing marine juice for a while now following your recepie, and I keep running into a problem where the mixture pools weirdly in some areas, almost like it's gone hydrophobic. Do you think there's something I'm doing wrong with the mix, or could it be the paints I apply it over, I've tried it over both acrylics and contrast paints, and I'm getting a lil worried I might be ruining my paint works.
I think the coat bit you were asking about is literally just called a surcoat, like the two thin voats mascot. Also, i see a Dark Angel, howling gryphon and Novamarine, excellent choices :)
the figures are very nice, but it's "small" 28mm. historically it is very very vague in terms of the period in view of the equipment of the models. superb painting as usual, always a pleasure to watch you paint.
See, I *thought* surcoat and then figured, "Nah, I wouldn't have that right first time, it must be something else" and threw it out. Gotta trust myself! 😂
Think he’s got this covered in the description box: “Apologies for having forgotten the size comparison a few folks asked for. I'll grab some photos later, but for now it's worth knowing they're 'true' 28mm miniatures, so to put it bluntly they don't really scale in as replacements for Bretonnians if that's what you're thinking... or you could play another game with them?”
Yup! Beat me to it. In short, no, they're not going to be a replacement for Bretonnian knights unless you're planning to use others from the range as it releases.
5:00 "Go on Bors, chop it's head off" "Right, one rabbit stew comin right up!" Seeing him like that decided it for me. If I ever get my hands on a box of these I'll probably have to paint them up like Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Unfortunately none of them look cowardly enough for sir Robin. Great job mate 👍
@@guilmon182 It'll be difficult for sure. Owing to the unfortunate dearth of source material. I did hear a rumour once that it was a mere babe in chainmail, but surely that's just a tall tale.
Never seen the point of them. With a bit of practice you can drybrush without leaving chalky residue anyway, and between a wash and a varnish you'll almost never see what the texture palette is supposed to solve. It seems like someone started selling them and suddenly they were *everywhere* as the must-have, but... eh? Paper towel still works.
