Рет қаралды 39,644

Күн бұрын

In my new figure painting video I show how I built and painted this WSS Grenadier figure by Alpine Miniatures. Painting the uniform with glazes, painting camouflage and leather are parts of this step-by-step guide. Of course skin tones are a topic too, as is weathering and applying it to a vignette.
I hope my video is helpfull for one or two of you and I can show some techniques for beginners and veterans.
Please let me know what you think about this guide. I would love to read your feedback and cronstuctive criticism. And if you liked what you saw, please consider subscribing.

I appreciate the return to add red and some life to the skin. This is missing in many tutorials and even in marketing pictures for major figure brands. I suppose that ghostly pallor is almost inevitable when staring at the same face for so much time. Very nice!

Yes it is really complicated to paint and record such small pieces. Stay in focus, hit the right spot with the brush😅 but yes, more close ups would be useful for this kind of videos, i will try to improve this in future videos. Thank you for your thoughts and watching🙏

I have been aero modelling for two years after an hiatus of some fifty one years & getting used to the new methods & equipment & paints available. My Daughter has recently suggested I try figure painting too, as an extra interest. This is a undoubtedly a new branch for me & , I felt, at a loss as to where to begin, especially as my skills are indeed somewhat limited. This video is, without doubt, absolutely amazing & very tutorial. Thanks for sharing &, I hope, in future, I will be able to come reasonably close to an acceptable display. Good luck.

Happy to hear you found your way back into this great hobby and like my video. I was experiencing the same when I restarted in 2020, a whole new world of materials, paints and products lay in front of me and it was kind of overwhelming. But with time and some experimentation I found my stuff and way to do things. Figures are a special branch of our hobby, something I invested a lot to improve because my figures were horrible two years ago. So don't be afraid of starting them, you will see what works for you with time and learn from the mistakes you will make. I now love figure painting and I am glad that I fought through the trouble at the beginning.

Very very nice work. I'm currently working on improving my figure work, and your video is very inspirational and you had some good techniques. One improvement to your videos I would suggest, is zoom in more on the figure when painting. It is slightly hard to see any details when you are painting. I love this figure and your art work. Good job.

@biberhunter_scale_models Жыл бұрын

Thank you very much, happy you like my work and my video was helpful. Yes good point with the zoom ins. It's just so hard to paint and record at the same time, stay in focus and paint something nice looking😅 but in general you are absolutely right, painting details need close ups. I will keep that in mind for future projects. Thank you again🙏

What is your paint to air brush flow ratio? do you use a leveler or thinner and if so what kind ?

@biberhunter_scale_models Жыл бұрын

Well that varies a bit depending on what I am painting. In general I would say 3 drops paint to one drop flow improver. Thinning mostly with vallejo thinner, some times Mrhobby Leveling thinner.

At 9:47 you mentioned diluting your paint. What do you dilute it with, please?

@biberhunter_scale_models Жыл бұрын

Right I dilute it with retarder, so the paint stays workable longer and doesn't leave tidemarks like it would do with water. And it blends better in the earlier applied layers.

Benutzt du nach dem Bemalen einen Schutzlack für deine Figuren?

@biberhunter_scale_models 11 ай бұрын

Nein, ich mache nichts drüber, die stehen ja in der Regel in der Vitrine ohne das man sie betatscht, daher brauchen sie das für mich auch nicht. Einzige Möglichkeit wäre wenn zB ein Enamel Produkt glänzend austrocknet, ich aber ein mattes Finish haben möchte, deshalb einen matten Klarlack drüberzulegen.

Die "native speaker" sind froh das man sich die Mühe macht die Videos in englischer Sprache zu machen, und da hat mir noch keiner etwas negatives zu gesagt. Da bin ich bei weitem auch nicht der einzige Kanal der Videos in nicht perfekter, weil nicht gebürtiger Englischer Sprache macht. Es ist halt generell angenehmer beim schauen was passiert nicht ständig unten mitlesen zu müssen. Dazu kommt, daß Video ist anderthalb Jahre alt, seitdem hat sich mein Englisch eventuell auch etwas gesteigert, vllt auch nicht😉. Das ist auf jeden Fall der Weg den ich hier gehe, da wie gesagt die Reaktionen überwiegend positiv sind. Trotzdem danke für dein Feedback 🤘
