Great guide, as ever, thank you! You're helping me get my brigades much better looking and further along than without this video

@MiniatureRealms 2 месяца назад

Thank you, and really glad the video has been helpful 🙂

@iwanhughes2965 2 года назад

Thanks for these tutorials, I took the plunge and got two starter sets plus La Haye Sainte! It's quite daunting!

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

I enjoy making the tutorials, thank you for watching. I’ve bought exactly the same, just going to take it one brigade at a time, keeping the rest in the boxes, slowly build playable forces rather than look at the piles of plastic.

@Blaxkleric 2 года назад

Thank goodness, another MRealms video. I wasn't sure how many more times I could cope watching your excellent WotRoses Vlog posts as a continuous play list before succumbing to a Pendraken order. LOL!! Was worried Covid had badly caught up with you. Stay safe and keep 'em coming 🙂

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

😂 Thankfully none of us were too poorly, just caused havoc with work and life with us all home (7 & 2yr old included). Poor dog probably came off worst with no walks 😂 …I really need to do some more WoTR 😅

I just started on my first Waterloo sprues. I can testify personally that indeed, priming/undercoating the strips in black followed by a white Zenithal is 100% the way to go! It outlines all the details perfectly, and creates instant shadow anythere you don't paint. So there's no worry about any white halos interfering between the borders of details to touch up later on. Especially at this small of a scale, you always, always want the recesses of the models to be black and dark so that different colors of details are separeated. And with the Contrasts I'm getting the sprues painted up in probably 1/4 the time it would take with traditional paints. I took a slightly different path than Stew, only because I was too lazy to get my airbrush set up, lol. Instead I spray primed them in black with a rattle can, and then I manually dry brushed the white over the strips to get the Zenithal. But obviously using an airbrush is waaaaay faster and more efficient.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Drybrushing is a great way to go, I do so after white with the airbrush. I can imagine your process works very well.

@theenigmaticgamer 2 года назад

Thanks for another superb tutorial. I am just starting a 15mm project after painting 28s for most of my wargaming life and your guidance is very welcome.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you, you’re very kind 😊 Hopefully you will find the new scale easier, it’s certainly faster to get big armies on the table.

@mikebersiks3280 2 года назад

Another great paint job. Just a heads up for British cavalry - they had brown horse leathers. It was the French who had all black

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you Mike. 😊 The black leather was deliberate in the end, on these models when I paint them brown they just didn’t show up against the brown horses, it’s very hard to get enough of a tonal difference with silly amounts of effort, especially with hundreds to paint 😂. Maybe one of the the things with the method I’m using I guess. Brown leather does darken loads when it’s gets old, I’ve got a brown leather belt that’s very dark now, I’d imagine with horses sweat and dirt from campaign it looking dark might not be too far off being realistic.

@mikebersiks3280 2 года назад

@@MiniatureRealms I agree, very tough to make them stand out when the whole regiment is mounted on Bays or Dark Brown horses as per most of the British dragoons. You might want to use that dark brown contrast colour for the leather when you do the British Household cav which were all mounted on black horses. You have the same problem with French heavies. I'm painting up the Grenadiers a Cheval which are also meant to be mounted on black horses which means that I either paint the horses in a dark grey or German Camo Dark Brown with a black wash over it and with the leather/ manes / tails in a flat black.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

That’s probably what I’ll do, the one black horse I did do I used Contrast Cygor Brown (which is the darkest one). That will have to be my method throughout I think.

@ratelmike8825 2 года назад

Thank you so much for an absolute fantastic video Stuart. I like that you touched on the various types of calvary and different coloured horses. Id really appreciate a similar one on the French Calvary. No need to go into too much detail on the horses more the uniforms. Fantastic series. Well done and look forward to more.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you 😊. The current plan (could change if something comes up) is to do French Heavy Cavalry of some flavour.

@squigs1917 2 года назад

Another excellent video, you really make those figures pop! Plenty of motivation from this to press on

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Superb heavy cavalry...and base, congrats!

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you 😊

@bruceschmidt3404 2 года назад

Beautiful painting. I am fascinated by the use of the 'contrast' paints. I have never used them before but what you do is just fantastic. I have an extensive collection of Vallejo paints and just finished 3800 ACW epic Union and Confederate figs, but now I am intrigued by these contrast paints. Thanks for continuing to share your expertise!

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you 😊 I’ve still got a long way to go with my Epic ACW, too many distractions. I’ve just pre-ordered some Army Painter Speed paints (their own version of contrast), so I’m looking forward to doing some videos with those to compare.

@bickercity6392 2 года назад

Beautiful work again as always.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

@aledroberts6580 2 года назад

Thanks for another great tutorial and learning loads from this series of videos that you are doing. Thanks for the time that you put in to producing these for the community :)

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you Aled, I’ve genuinely love making the videos, the fact that so many are watching them is a bonus (and surprise 😂).

@Edward-Plantagenet 2 года назад

Great tutorial again. At last, I may have a use for Apothecary White, probably the least useful of the Contrasts I have bought up to now, for me anyway. I've never enjoyed painting horses but with Contrasts I enjoy it much more. What I do find though, just as the blue we will use for French infantry needs to be lighter on 15mm figures to avoid it looking black, the horse colours also have to go up a couple of notches to avoid being too dark. I also hate highlighting horses and I find using lighter shades negates the need for much highlighting. For that reason I tend to use Snakebite Leather, Aggaros Dunes and Gore Grunta Fur for the various bays and chestnut horses, even mixed together. I've used Wildwood but definitely needs to be diluted and / or mixed IMO otherwise it's way too dark. I use Basillicanum Grey for the the darker grey sometimes on the larger AB 18mm but Apothecary may be better at this scale.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you 😊 Yeah most of the darker warm colours (the reds and browns) have very strong pigment and need to be thinned for a lot of applications.

@haroldhardrada7449 2 года назад

Apothecary white is great for French line infantry. Most of the the uniform is white and it does most of the for you.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Yep it’s great, I used it in the Voltigeurs I painted, will definitely be using it when I get to the French Infantry.

@StormofSteelWargaming 2 года назад

Great work again!

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you 😊

@miketike3246 2 года назад

Awesome tutorial as always! Stew, I wanted to bring something to your attention in case you were not aware. Warlord just released some new bundle packages which seem to focus on pure infantry and cavalry bundles without having to go all in with the terrain and other stuff. For $440.00 US, they're doing the British with 7 brigade boxes of infantry, also with 4 brigade boxes of cavalry, and finally 2 extra cavalry boxes for free. Also at $440.00 US, they're doing the French, the new bundle is "D'erlons 1st Corps", which has ELEVEN brigade infantry boxes, and 2 cavalry boxes for free. It's cool that they are allowing people to buy bundles of just pure miniatures!

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you Mike 😊 I’ve glanced at those bundles, I’ve not priced them on to see the value though, there were a few comments in the Facebook group I admin about them not being as good value as the normal starters, but I’ve. It checked myself.

@fogh 2 года назад

Another great tutorial and a brilliant end result! 👍 I have to disagree with one point you make. I think that these are most certainly works of art 😀.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

😂 Thank you, you’re very kind 😊

@velvetmark1 2 года назад

Great video! I love the contrasts for horses at this scale. Wouldnt use them on a 54mm horse but they do a great job on these. That Apoc white, looks really pretty:)

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you 😊 Completely agree with contrast, they work best in smaller areas and as glazes.

@grahamfennell7081 2 года назад

Magnificent as always haven't gone that detailed with mine but all 60 + command Done to table top standard I'm happy with it 😀

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Wow that’s loads, wish I’d painted half that much 😂

@henrysekurski3597 2 года назад

Really love your videos and learning allot form them! Any chance you can also include a painting tutorial of a French Artillery unit?

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you 😊 It’s definitely a possibility in the future, I think it’s likely that it will be some flavour of French Cavalry next, but I’m sure they will be covered at some point.

@Westenmensch 2 года назад

When are you going to replace the battery of your smoke alarm thingy? :) Other than that - great as usual and very helpful indeed. Thanks!

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

😂🤣 Good hearing. It’s a mains one, it’s the back up battery but I can’t get it out - need to sort it out, thank you for reminding me 😅

@aossi6738 2 года назад

Fantastic as always and I have used the guides religiously. So thank you. I am just wondering about the saddle cloth colours and trim. I use the mont saint jean uniform plates and they seem different, albeit yours look nicer. Do you use different uniform plates ?

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

I use all different kinds of sources if I’m honest, Osprey, internet searches, they do vary so who knows what’s right 😂 Mont Saint Jean is good, but I’ve no idea if that’s 100% accurate either, it’s just another internet source (albeit an excellent one). As long as it’s mostly right I don’t lose any sleep over it, especially not at this scale with these miniatures.

@johnkitchen2924 2 года назад

Just completed my 5th KGL to your pallet and have started my second 3 base battalion. I’m going to try the British heavies next, as a change to the line infantry! I’ve got my Rendera 60x30mm undercoated and ready to go. The plan is to have the British starter complete-ish before I buy the Highland brigade. 1st game is set for May so there’s much to do. Keep up the good work.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

How much do you need to have ready for May, not the whole starter?

@johnkitchen2924 2 года назад

@@MiniatureRealms Probably an imaginary small engagement, like Quatre Bras, but to the west on the Nivelles road. Wellington was worried that Napoleon would pressure his right flank west of Hougoumont when Napoleon was actually trying to split Wellington from Blucher on Wellington’s left. To force Wellington to commit troops west of Hougoumont Napoleon sends some of Prince Jerome’s 6th Division and Pire’s 2nd Cavalry along the Nievelles road as Ney advances on Quatre Bras. Jerome’s force is blocked at Nievelles by Cooke’s 1st Division (Guards), some of Alten’s 3rd Div and Kerrison’s 7th Hussars marching east to get to Waterloo. 8 Infantry, 3 guns and 3 cavalry battalions a side. Well that’s the plan.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Love it, that’s a great idea. Hopefully you can get all that you need painted in time.

@nathanhaylett8436 2 года назад

Would you be willing to do a video on the French line infantry and cavalry from Warlord Games Epic Battles Waterloo?

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

It’s certainly the plan, couldn’t say exactly when that will be, but the current plan is to do something with French cavalry as the next tutorial. My Voltigeur tutorial shows much of how I will approach the French line, but there will be a few changes.

@-Joe-- 2 года назад

Great as always. Those larger bases do look very good. I feel like it is hard to have the ranks close together with the horse tails hanging over the back on the Warlord bases.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you 😊 Agreed on the bases. I don’t hate the ‘official’ ones, they’re fine, and I can understand why there’s the one size, and that one bases sprue works well, but this was a cheap adjustment.

@-Joe-- 2 года назад

@@MiniatureRealms yeah. I didn't plan on doing it. But now I have a painted a couple of Scots greys and have been looking at the bases again I think I am convinced. The renedra bases don't seem as cheap here in Canada. So I might get some mdf ones.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

That’s sensible, no point in paying over the odds.

@Blocksetter 2 года назад

Much appreciated tutorial again Stu, everything is covered superbly on your channel... Brushes, brush care, basing etc.. So helpful One question I do have is that I wear reading glasses and have a visor type magnifier from another hobby, would you recommend these or the magnifier on a stand type affair for painting miniatures?

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you for the kind words, glad you’re enjoying the channel, I really enjoy making the videos and it’s lovely to hear when people like it. I’ve occasionally use visor type and free standing magnifiers, I don’t get on 100% with either of the really, but I think it’s probably a personal thing in terms of which is best. My eyesight has always been very good, but I paint a lot, and now in my mid 40s they sometimes get a bit tired, so magnification helps the odd time. I’m probably not quite at the point where I need them, so maybe that’s why they both felt a bit alien to me. I found the glasses slightly disorienting when looking away from the mini and putting paint on my brush, the desk one maybe slightly better, but it’s still odd. Sorry not much help 😂

@Blocksetter 2 года назад

That's plenty helpful.... This is a lovely range of figures, looking forward to hopefully doing them some justice and improving my painting. Keep up the good work Stu, concise, easy to follow vids with sublime basing. Many thanks - Steve

@RdamplificationUk1 2 года назад

What's the blue hand device you stick the figures on? That looks really useful. Where from please?

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

It’s a painting handle from a company called Redgrass Games. You can get them at loads of hobby stores, Amazon as well. I think I got mine at Incom Gaming.

@davidcollins2648 2 года назад

Nicely painted but it's a shame the sculptor didn't seem to bother looking at any horses. Those legs are something else.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

😂 I’ve seen much worse, but yes there are definitely better ones out there as well. And thank you 🙂

@RockinL7BuckingBulls 2 года назад

On a light colored horse the hooves would not be black a buff would be a better color . Just saying.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Thank you, I’d honestly not even considered it. Just did a quick internet search (not always the most reliable place I know), but looks like black is possible, but more likely lighter colour, so when I do the rest of the unit I’ll add some in, thank you again.

@petermellors6456 2 года назад

What brush do you use, it seems to keep its tip nicely?

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

I mostly use Broken Toad, but sometimes they go out of stock for a while, so I also use Rosemary & Co series 33. Would recommend both, the later is a bit cheaper.

@Dread_Lord_22 2 года назад

Do you recommend varnishing them and the buildings?

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

I would never ‘not’ recommend varnishing gaming miniatures, but I don’t like to very often, I don’t like how it changes or flattens colours. However with some miniatures you really must to prevent damage, metal miniatures for sure, and miniatures where Contrast paint in the main medium. In this case I often varnish after base coats. It then highlight on top, it adds protection, but saves some wear and tear. Metallic paints suffer most from colour change after varnishing, so I try to varnish before I do them. Having said all that I haven’t varnished ANY of my plastic Epic models, I just handle them with care by the bases. Sorry for the long and not necessarily straight answer 😂

@Dread_Lord_22 2 года назад

@@MiniatureRealms Thank you! So much! Would you do base coast,varnish,strong tone and then highlights? Also any recommendations for browns. I have the basic army painter brown and I have to do so many coats on everything.

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

I’d probably varnish before strong tone. It’s really important not to go on too thick with the varnish though, I use an airbrush for this, I’d worry about a can making it too thick. Vallejo do a really nice Brown & Leather set, so do Scale 75 (but harder to use if you’re not used to them).

@Dread_Lord_22 2 года назад

@@MiniatureRealms Thank you so much. Do you varnish your buildings? I only have citadel technical ardcoat currently to varnish with. I was thinking of picking up a primer and basic Vallejo color set so that works!

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

I haven’t varnished my mdf buildings, the wood soaks in the colour so it doesn’t tend to wear off. They don’t get heavy use though, only at home or in a box.
