Magic, right?! Even surprised me, some colours are just made to make your life easier!

That steel with orange rust effects looks stunning! Got to say, I’m really impressed with Artis Opus here in terms of quality of content. I’ve got a set of brushes already and the effort that’s been put in to these tutorials given out for free from a brush manufacturer is way above the rest and makes me want to go out and get more. Whoever’s decision it was to make this channel - well done!! I’m sure you’re subscribers will be hitting peak numbers in no time!

This all still seems like magic to me, would really appreciate a "here's the basics of these techniques" video, going over the dampening pad, texture pallete, when to clean/rinse the brush etc.

If you wanna do this a little cheaper, either hairspray or salt can be used in place of the chipping fluid, which is basically overpriced hairspray anyway, for the hairspray, a couple of light coats to get a satin sheen will be about perfect, with the salt technique, use coarse sea salt, grind it up a bit so you have lots of variation in crystal sizes from a fine powder to bigger chunks, either with a pestle and mortar or the recess in a clean brick and a stone will work too, anything you can grind the salt down slightly with really, varnish the piece, then wet the surface then sprinkle salt over the bit you want to chip, sprinkle the salt on, leave a minute or two, then paint over. use a stiff paintbrush or a soft-ish old tooth brush to remove, and hey presto! works a treat! unfortunately the salt technique only works with an airbrush at low psi, but the hairspray technique works with a normal brush brush, just let the top coat dry and remove with a damp paint brush! (some people will tell you to buy specific expensive branded hairspray but it honestly makes no difference, find that the cheap stuff from the pound shop works fine for me! Just remember, 2 light coats is enough)

Nick at customer support was great and explained the delays, so big thanks to him. Lastly Scale75 has hinted that as an incentive to seeing more of it in tutorials they will be changing one of their paints, HULDRA BLUE will be known as BYRON BLUE !!!!!!.

Heya!!! This video is awesome!!! Ive been trying to find some inspiration for my bases for my kill team squad (using the gw necromunda bases with a bunch of bits and mechanical junk as just basing details) and this has been perfect!! Out of curiosity cause ive never seen it before, what does the chipping liquid do? And is this how its normally used? Also is there an alternative to the fluid i could use or do i have to try to get ahold of it? OH ALSO I REALISED I RECOGNISED YOUR CHANNEL NAME CAUSE MY LOCAL GAMING STORE (ACME GAMES) HAS A BUNCH OF YOUR BRUSHES FOR SALE!!!!!

I really love the look of your series d dry bruushes.and I don’t mind paying for a premium product.my question would be the way we all see you using the brushes how long do they last you before you decide to use a new one? Thanks and keep up the great content.

Great question dude - I tend to get ''an army'' out of each brush. Once they get to this stage, they are demoted to basecoats and stippling as they don't loose shape, they just get shorter. You'll notice me using the same brushes in tutorials now from when I started the channel 😊

love this ! need my brushes :)

Quality as always Byron. Feel like you do some magic with washes so I've started making my own over the last month or so instead of just using Nuln Oil or Agrax Earthshade and I've gotta say I really rate it more than ready mixed washes. My necrons have been having washes of Huldra blue mixed with Vallejo black where I would have used Nuln Oil before and the results are way better and the hint of blue adds so much interest on the copper sections its like free weathering as well as contrast. For my Blood Angels, I copied the wash from your tutorial from over the summer and that's worked a treat too. Just need to try some on my Dark Angels now. Any suggestions for a nice Deathwing scheme using Series D and washes?

Hey Aaran... I may have one of those assembled and waiting! I don't think so unless I avoided 2 things: 1 - Weathering - you get amazing results in the time, but the GUO had 45mins just on his sword for example 2 - Freehand/decals/masking - detailing in general adds up, similarly to weathering I think it's worth doing, but it does add time, however efficient you are. It's less of a all similar blob too, unless you did it all 1 colour with minimal other stuff - e.g. flat matt black panels, etc. I'd say 4.5-6 hours probably

@@ArtisOpus your tutorials help the community so much. I'm sure there are many other painters like myself who have a back log of miniatures and want to get good results in the quickest time most people. Most Imperial armies I see are some variation of black. Having separate videos would mean the techniques could be used by the community on other miniatures. Whichever tutorial you do I look forward to it along with many others. Thank you.

2:10 is sorcery and you can be expecting a call from the inquisition. bases look awesome! also what happened to your nose? did you get into a fight after someone said rude things about Huldra blue? Also what are your thoughts on Vallejo model colour vs game colour?
