HOW to GLAZE Miniatures | HOW to Paint SQUIG SKIN

How to glaze miniatures. Basically a how to paint Squig Skin of the Loonboss on Giant Cave Squig Warhammer miniature. A how to colour glaze or glaze miniatures via glazing and glaze layering.
This video shows and tells the different painting techniques to make squig skin painting look fairly good. My squig skin is not as pink or red as usual though, as I was going for a more organic, more relatable skin finish.
This video simply explains the difference of gaze layering and glazing. The squig is only semi finished as I failed to paint the freckles, but will do so before we paint the loonboss in another video.

@DonSuratos 2 жыл бұрын

So was I! I was sooo frustrated with glazing with water last year. Then I realized, what if I use mediums. Mediums were formulated and used by fine artists for a reason. Tada, I think I paint better now. I am definitely no longer frustrated. So much easier to glaze or paint when using mediums. ☺️

Like seriously if u ever have any classes or a mentorship program imma jump on it in a hot sec cause I want to keep improving.

How You doing drybrush that is not chalky?

@DonSuratos 2 жыл бұрын

It is still chalky bro. Not as much as I do not unload paints too much. But still chalky / dusty looking. ☺️

@phoulmouth 2 жыл бұрын

Drybrushing and not getting the chalkiness is actually really easy. Get a small sponge in it's own little container with enough water to keep the top a little moist. Wipe the paint off like you normally would. You do this to get rid of most of the pigment, but it also gets rid of most of the moisture, this is what creates the chalkyness. Once you get the paint off to how you like it dab the brush right into that wet sponge, wick it off a little bit, and then start the drybrushing. Now that you have reintroduced moisture, but not pigment, you will not get that chalky effect. It take a little practice to get it right, but just keep making it wetter until you find that breakpoint where you get a nice coverage with no chalkiness.
