Thank you, so glad you’re enjoying the channel. Um, drill bit size? I think, I use a 1mm. I use it for everything. It’s the same size as a paperclip for pinning and attaching to handles and the same size as the holes in the side of the muzzle. So, what I do, is I drill a 1mm hole for the barrel and usually it’s a bit off-centre. But because it’s a bit smaller than I need I can use my knife blade to increase the size and correct the centring. Win win 👍

Depending on the amount of weathering powder, rattle cans or airbrushes could blow some of it around (as has been experienced by yours truly). AK Interactive sells both pigment and 'gravel and sand' fixers which can be applied with a brush - and the gravel and sand works fine for pigments with no impact on the colour or saturation.

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides

You’re absolutely right, when working with bigger deposits of powder, you need to use fixer. In this case though, a simple varnish is sufficient. Perhaps I’ll do a vid on the different uses and applications of weathering powder 🤔

Awesome video! Quick question about the paints. You mentioned (and showed) a GW base paint called 'Iron Warriors'. Is this just a rebranding of Leadbelcher? I have never heard of 'Iron Warriors' as a colour before.

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides

4 жыл бұрын

Thank you. No, it’s a new metallic from GW it’s richer and darker than leadbelcher. You could certainly use leadbelcher instead but I would really recommend you look to pick some up when your leadbelcher runs out because the amount of metallic fleck in the Iron Warriors is so much better. They also brought out a lighter tone (like ironbreaker) called Iron Hands which is better too

Nice. How to make so sharp edge on brush and without drying paint on it?

What if you like the darker look after the wash and apply the wash after you do the highlights? Any opinions on that?

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides

3 жыл бұрын

Absolutely, applying the wash as the last step is a good option for a darker look. Main downside will be the potential for watermarks but this could be disguised with weathering and battle damage if really bad. Lastly, washes can leave an annoying glossy finish, so if you’re applying the wash last, I’d recommend hitting it with a good matte varnish to tame any shine 👍🏻

Did you do another recess shade as it seems to get progressively darker through the video, but im not sure if thats just because you brighten the armour back up after the red tone wash. I love the method though and will be attempting it on my new models.

Are the basic models from the space marines tactical squad the same. And you then paint them depending on which chapter you collect. I understand each chapter has unique models. But I have started with a space marines tactical squad if I want to build an army of blood angels do I just paint them red and if I want ultra marines I paint them blue. Then start to collect their unique characters. Or are the tactical squads individually different. Thanks.

Thanks for watching, really glad you’re finding it useful. With regards the shoulder pads, it’s just down to the specific mini I think. This one had shoulders as part of the body piece. The arms were pretty much just from the elbows down. So attaching the shoulder pads was easy as they just went on the shoulders. No all space marines are like this though, so it’s just a case by case basis.

Do a couple of tests first on some scrap pieces and see what dilution works best. I’d start with 1 part contrast to 2 parts medium as a first test

You're not doing anything wrong. Sometimes washes can result in a shiny finish. You can limit this be really shaking them before use. If it still happens, don't worry, Just finish the mini as normal and when you're done give the whole model a coat of a matte varnish and it'll dull it back down again.

Damn I miss painting

Brushstroke Painting Guides Another question, and I’m new to painting minis, what primer did you use? Is it just a normal grey primer?

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides

Brushstroke Painting Guides thank you again :))

Hi, apologies I paint in the shoulder pads as black at kzread.info/dash/bejne/moaDua5xhpevn7g.html which is the point I painted in the knee pad. I decided that they didn't look dark enough as Eshin Grey shaded with Nuln Oil, so just painted them again with Abaddon Black. Hope that helps

😊

hey i see you painted in the shoulder pads black, is black not reserved for sergeants?

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides

Yes, black pauldrons signify sergeants. I painted this one as a sergeant just as an example. For rank and file, just paint the pauldrons red the same as the armour

@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides i like the red and gold scheme i apparently they're called Blood Drinkers chapter. Would you know where i could score decals/transfer sheets for them? In general Blood Angels decals are hard to come by but theirs an abundance of ultramarine. i haven't really started building an army yet but im thinking of going ultramarine for ease of compatibility plus i like the gold. It makes the models look rich. I don't game i just like the models and how they look so i dont care about how many rolls or how many hits a model can take lol. No time for that.

I think your best bet will be to search eBay for the indomitus transfer sheet. That came with a lot of different chapter transfers. Blood Angels was on there for sure. The Raven Guard primaris upgrade kit I got came with a sheet of transfers, so you could see if the Blood Angels one does too

My mephiston red doesn't look nearly as bright as yours. How is that possible?

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides

Colours are darker if you use a black primer. I used Vallejo grey primer for this, so that could be why my result was brighter.

I never like how my washes seem to ruin the smoothness of the paint. Wouldn't it make more sense to just add the washes to the recesses instead of the entire surface?

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides

3 жыл бұрын

You can certainly do a recess wash if you prefer. The reason I do it this way is I get to choose where the shadows start and end. Recess shading tends to give strong lines of shadow, which can be great for some circumstances but not all. This way I can have a soft blend up to the recess if I like or the harsh line of just the recess. It’s all about options

So, how did you make the base on that one? XD
