I did something similar, but instead of using a black wash, I used a brown call Rock Wash, bleanded better with the orange for a more natural look.

I did the same thing but I used water based acrylic, burnt umber and added a bit of black. Watered it down with windshield washer fluid. Just black doesnt quite look as good. The brown tint looks better with the orange, more natural. Let it dry and it wipes off easy with soapy water and a paper towel.

This looks so easy. I just ordered this Thing to complete my fantastic four. So I'm definitely gonna do this to make him look so much better.

I filled in all the lines and cracks with a black Gundam panel liner. Worked really well!

Greg I think I failed arts and crafts, because you are the master of painting figures

@DOFIXERR Ай бұрын

Wow, looks so much better. I've been sitting on mine out of the box and as great as the sculpt is, it lacks those details in the paint. Definitely going to do this to mine.

That looks fantastic! I’m always really tempted to throw a wash on basically every Mcfarlane figure I get. I might try that Citadel stuff you used

I’m also interested to know if you did a video covering your other Thing customisation, because as amazing as this one looks that other version looks sick!!!👏🏼👍🏼

Congrats. You have discovered the biggest cheat in miniature painting. Just paint base colors then apply Nuln Oil to shade. Done. By the by, also did this with the Spider-Man Far from Home New Suit Spidey Marvel Legend. Made a huge difference to the uncolored webs.

@tacobellalugosi2527 2 жыл бұрын

Heh just did this to my Thing figure last week the Nuln oil is a god send . It works very well for stuff like this. I also used it on my custom green goblin head(was not a fan of the anime eyes) but I used the oil to add shading around the eyes which made him look more evil. But yeah for Thing it works awesome. I'm doing this also for my buddies thing . After he seen mine and both came out very different so I guess each figure won't look the same . .

I've been on the fence about doing this. This definitely has me in the yard. I'm already swapping out Sues head, so why not bring out that amazing sculpt work. Thanks for making this Greg!

@MrTurtle2011 2 жыл бұрын

Good video . I would like to see more customizing videos from you . Maybe do something with the marvel legends Firestarter figure like put her Ina flight pose and have fire coming off the back. Or make a custome bone braker figure. Like the one the fwoosh is working on but make yours different . Keep up the good work.

I love working with acrylics because there's always a way back, if you don't like how it ended up looking you can dunk it in simple green and remove the paint.

I used Vallejo brown wash for my Thing. Came out amazing. Feel like the brown wash made more sense for rocks.

This is absolutely awesome Greg, I’ve watched a fair few of your videos and they’re all so interesting, really enjoy seeing what you do to upscale some of your figures. This particular video actually convinced me to go buy this figure instead of the more expensive and harder to come by Wallgreens version. Hopefully I can make just as good a job of it and get the same outcome you have.👏🏼👍🏼

Hi Greg. I really like that customized Thing. I think it is the best of the three you have. It really looks like it jumped off the pages of the comic book. Nice job!

I used the nuln oil when i repainted my justice league flash to darken it down a bit and it came out really well

@Ironlegiontraining 2 жыл бұрын

I have been using the Testors Acrylic Wash, it has been working out pretty good, thin just like the Citadel. They also offer it in different colors which makes a big difference in layering on colors. I get mine at Micheals. A good paint wash and some dry brushing after to bring out the detail makes a world of difference. Starting doing this to most of my Black series to some extent.

Man, I just got introduced to your channel yesterday with your Star Wars haul unboxing and was really enthused by your energy and passion for the collecting. My second video was this one. I really appreciate you letting me into your thought process and I love the paint application. I've never been motivated to try this, but after your video I'm looking forward to trying it myself. Thanks. Definitely am subscribing to your channel after these two videos. Good job, brother! I appreciate the content and looking forward to more in the future

I’m a kid collector and I have problems with my figures if they are unpainted or have no details because I do not have thing tools to fix them or the mind

@timothystahl4096 6 ай бұрын

Well, I'm confused ... since what you're saying is not what you're actually showing. The figure that you're holding in your right hand at 1:52 is the Walgreen's Exclusive figure (blue shorts, black belt), the one in your left hand (black-blue shorts, number on belt) is the figure that came with 2 Skrull heads as parts of a build-a-figure. And I think the Walgreens Exclusive one is colour-wise perfect while the other one, the one you "weathered", turned out way too black for my personal taste (it looks even darker in other parts of the video).

So new to washes here, myself. With that nuln oil you don't need to wipe it away using alcohol or water? Just a dry paper towel?
