Getting Experimental Painting A Red Dragon! How To Paint Miniatures With an Airbrush. Painting Tips
In this video I show my technique for painting metallic red, by painting a miniature with a airbrush. The great thing with painting this dragon miniature metallic red, is that these techniques are transferable for Warhammer 40l, Age of Sigmar, frostgrave, Dungeons and Dragons and a ton of other miniature games. The dragon mini was 3d printed on a resin printer and designed by Lord of the Print.
This Video was inspired form channels like Miniac Painting, Black Magic Craft, TheDMsCraft, Real Terrain Hobbies, Nerdarchy, Web DM, Taking20, and of course Critical Role.

Color shift!!! The dragon is 😎🤯💯🧙 I just started getting into this stuff! Adds a new level to painting! I just finished redoing a bird bath for my Mom. It was one of the last things my Dad bought for her. ( He's moved on to the great beyond a short time ago) I filled in all the little pits, cracks and damaged areas, painted the vines with 3 greens, the roses with 2reds and some color shift, then painted the bowl with red/purple, green/ blue color shift paints, then a very thin layer of gold paint. After that I painted the rest of it in white and gold marble. High gloss clear coat after that. Love the color shifting paints!!

That bird bath sounds amazing! I love doing projects like that, especially for something so special. Thanks a lot for sharing.

rruuurrrrrrrrrrr. Came out bloody cool. It does have a subtle shiny sheen to 'im like we dragons have. Nicely done! Gold underbody is a nice touch, and yea... anything gold is better appreciated in real life. Glad your experiments worked out in the end; hopefully your campaign buddies appreciated it, if not, they just have no draconic appreciation and deserve any fire they got >>:=p

That's an awesome Dragon Troy, it really came out well. I used the same Vallejo and FW on my Skeletons. I never thought of mixing them though definitely worth a try. You mentioned some spikes breaking, do you think that there might be a more forgiving resin available?

@FacilityD20 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks, yes there are resin that are more flexible, I also over cured the mini a little making it a little more brittle as well.. however, the paint hides the few broken spikes.

Why glass thinner? I'm new to this and was thinking using water to thin the acrylic?

@FacilityD20 2 ай бұрын

Cheap, works well, does not cause the paint to become chunky and has a little bit of liberation for the airbrush needle.

Gotta say it. It looked great until you added the flat light grey on the horn, wing spikes, etc. It clashes too much with the reflective vibrant red and metallics. Re nuln oil up those bad boys and the whole beautiful package will come together.
