@@themidwesternboi9399 some of them are more difficult to use, but I also start off every paintjob with contrasts. If I feel like investing more time or having more fun, I might add to the first layer or even cover it completely with opaque paint. But the initial speed paint is such a great tool!

Instead of mixing colors for the blasters I used Ratling Grime and it looks good. Perhaps that color wasn't released yet at the time this video was made I think it's one of the colors added recently to the range.

Sir, per chance do you know what humidity levels are you’re working in? It’s not the first time I can see you work with a rather wet contrast in time mine would already start to settle. Is there anything else than the humidity of the environment that could impact this drying time?
@Sorastro Жыл бұрын
Hello! I don't really know what the humidity is here in my little studio tbh. I also don't mix the Contrast Colour with anything (unless stated), so I'm not sure about the drying time varience. But you could certainly just paint one smaller area at a time (an arm, then the torso etc).. 🙂

Stupid questions - what primer did you use? I'm trying to use my monument hobbies primers, but I find that the speedpaint I use (army painter 2.0) seems to reactivate the primer and pull it off the model. I'm looking for a primer that clearly works with contrast / speedpaint like what you're using here. Thanks!
@Sorastro Жыл бұрын
Hey Ben! I use the Mr Finishing Surfacer Black primer; it's an enamel primer, and you can see me use it in the first episode of the series: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npiGhayqqKfJm4E.html 😀

Hi! Well, I had a bit of a rough couple of years where my output slowed down a little whilst I got through some personal difficulties, which is now behind me. But also I was commissioned to work on this series some time ago, so was able to work on these videos very early, then release them nearer to the launch of the game. 🙂
