Howdy folks! Today, we are talking all about the reductive technique, a process that is heavily utilized in the Grimdark Style of Miniature Painting, and better yet, we will show it over the new Trench Crusade Miniatures.

Is villainy ink ever going to sell all the colors as a set? And then future colors as expansion set?

@GrimdarkCompendium 5 ай бұрын

@jasperaragon8889 yes we will do a set. I need to figure out packaging for that. And we will do new colors to expand the range, an oil range and acrylics by the end of it.

I've been using streaking grime and oil paints just to apply a wash (weathering is done before the enamel based paints), this video literally opened my mind to using the alcohol for the chipping effect and it would save me so much time. I can't wait to apply these extra bits of knowledge for next weeks painting batch.

@GrimdarkCompendium 7 ай бұрын

Another insanely cool way to use the alcohol removal technique is to slide a layer of glue onto the miniature first. This offers the ultimate protection. Check out our Tyranid Course to get a full explanation of that. It's really a deep concept.

@dirtywetdogboatsandsailing6805 6 ай бұрын

I thought I would put this out as these models and this artwork is close to something I was working on recently - working up a plan for a diorama which might have been something like 'Turnip' based although I think the ability to have a limited degree of late steam age and early diesel age technology would give me greater freedom. Anyway, one of the model looks I was trying to find is like the 'Penitentes' or Copirates that appear in the artwork - this being a feature of the models and artwork that I really like and can't find anything else close. It looks as though I will have to wait for the models to become available while I push forward the diorama design and building design. Cheers

Texture is king! I do this even with my 3d printed stuff more so big flat armour plates or on tanks, can use anything from putty to texture paints, sand, on platic you can use a tiny bit of plastic glue and a little pick tool to add little holes or warp it from damage, or just the good old super glue and baking soda trick.
