You always have a lot to contribute Ash. Countless times, just seeing your models has motivated me to pick back up a hobby knife and build or a paint brush. Keep fighting the good fight and stay safe.

Double upload? Btw, your method to the madness is over 9000. *angrily crushes scouter but then humbly bows*

I use that 2x Matte Clear on everything and I love it. I have used it in snow and rain and as long as it doesn't get wet, it won't fog up and it ages more matte without yellowing.

Getting stuff done fast, good-looking, and on the table is a real talent.

One thing to remember about the drybrush step: you don't need to use dedicated mini painting for this. Craft paint works just as well, and is cheaper. You can pick some up at any craft store.

With all my terrain that I build or buy, I always use craft paint for terrain. Its too expensive to try and use mini paints for anything than my minis! EDIT: Actually sometimes i use a small amount of my Vallejo paints for the tiny details

@@KolaKreates I only ever use my dedicated mini paints on terrain for the “centerpiece” of a table, the building/ruin/ or otherwise an eye catcher that people will look at when playing. Even then I don’t paint the majority of it with my mini paints. I use the primer XD

As someone who’s starting to venture more into terrain fabrication, I dig this kind of video. Dude, you’re a hobbyist elder god. I would love to see more of your opinions and insight on terrain and table prep. Keep up the awesome content.

I used this technique on my Warcry terrain a couple years ago when that video came out and had a good set of terrain in no time. Thanks for doing another one for the sci-fi stuff. Now you’ll have to reveal your secrets for getting all the minis painted so fast! 🧐😃

Cheers Ash that's great. Those will be handy for Necromunda Ash Wastes. A little bit of conversion to add trading post signs for the buildings and give it a bit of a Wild West vibe.

That's awesome advice, Ash! You just literally gave a second chance to my Warcry terrain and D&L quest catacombs! Thanks a heap!

thanks ash, the first video you did on this topic, i used and got a bunch of terrain painted really quickly. quick and easy, i love it!!

Another primer I like is the red oxide, especially if doing a rusted look terrain, it is super matte. Base prime with flat black, then the red oxide from above, then dry brush with a metallic.

Great video - and awesome montage music 🎶 I do rather like this set, and that blue looks great! Thanks for the video!

I've painted my terrain in the exact same colour scheme haha. Only difference is I added orange parts to pick out key points (doors. Barrels etc) and I almost did the exact same techniques aswell 😅 Gotta say the terrain is really easy to build and is really solid. 👌 will last forever. And super easy to paint. And very easy to add in other kits to expand it. (Pipes. Barricades. Servohaulers. Containers. Crates etc) I made the plasma obliterator the centrepiece of the base.

Thanks! This is great.

Getting stuff done fast is what the ppl want. Lean into it Ash😉

Always love seeing your rare painting videos. Do you have any tricks on cleaning off mold lines more efficiently? Feels like I take forever during the cleaning and assembly for a kit of this size.

Good job!

Never considered the Chaulk paint, will definitely have to take a look as it no doubt dry brushes great.

You got a like from me for this video for knowing the name of the colony on LV-426.

Great stuff

Thanks for an other great video!

OMG, I was describing it as Hadley's Hope from Alien terrain myself!

Nice job Ash. I get lots of use out of spray cans.

Great tutorial thanks. 🤗

Thanks Ash these videos are always super informative. A few days ago I batch assembled like 18 minis, and I agree with you assembly is becoming my least favorite aspect of this hobby.

BAM! Mentioned the SPICE WEASEL get that like!

Great vid

Jazz to paint to. Nice.

Love the music btw

Was fun to watch Ash ! There are all sorts of companies making different terrain and bits. What do you look for in terrain ? Does it have to be line of sight blocking or does it need some other feature ? I am curious what you think as I look for different pieces to terrain for my games.

I appreciate this deeply! Thank you for sharing your tips and wisdom!!!

“Spice weasel: BAM!!!”

Not a big spray paint user, but that looked pretty simple and gets very good results, so I'm tempted to try it on my next project. I don't have any unpainted GW terrain but I'll give it a go on the Deadzone terrain that's sat in its box waiting for its time to shine!

excellent video Ash! also consummate choice for montage background track...

I think I’ve been doing GW dry paints wrong 😲 Edit: montage! (Really dig music!) Edit 2: now I kind of want to see some of this terrain interspersed with some ‘old-west’ themed stuff. You know, some real Firefly’s World s***

Awesome paintscheme. Is there any spray or color which i can use instead of Rust-oleum coastal blue? The color is awesome but i cant get it in EU.

Sprays are definitely the way to go for terrain, I was trying to do it by airbrush recently and it was hard work.

19:23 Did someone say montage? :D In all seriousness great job! Simple and effective.

Alternatively for dry brushing just use craft paint from an art store or even dollar store. Its what I do for any terrain projects I have....which are a lot *cries

Yes but you want some that has lots of depth of detail. The more raised detail the better to get the nice contrast

Love these videos. totally used this technique for my warcry terrain. How does it work for MDF? Specifically I am curious about like TT Combat which has a lot less.... ridges I guess. It just seems flatter. Still like their terrain just wondering if you have has success using the same process for MDF terrain.

The more defined the detail is the better this will work, so use it on kits with lots of raised surfaces :)

Looks great, though I have to say I would always try and avoid using overpriced hobby paints like GW for anything except tiny details on terrain pieces. For drybrushing scenery I just use craft paints or cheaper end hobby paints such as Humbrol. You’ve done a lovely job on those though!
