Looks good, man. For the ppl in the comments - AK and MIG do a great variety of enamel washes and chipping fluids to get great weathering effects on your models. I’m keen to try some oil washing using the Abteilung 502 line. There’s a great video by Zatcaskagoon Miniatures here on yt on reductive painting techniques using oils over acrylics, the major thing to keep in mind is the miscibility of the layers of paint under what you’re working on. Acrylic paints are not miscible in mineral spirits and thus you can easily use the two together, use with a coat of varnish if you’re worried about ruining a specific effect or if you’ve glazed a very thin layer you don’t want disturbed, chuck on a coat of varnish and you’ll be golden. Subbed and liked

Appreciate the comment and the sub! And yes working with the two different mediums can have different challenges for sure! It’s a lot of fun playing with both and seeing what can be achieved! I’m actually gonna pick up some AB502 weathering stuff so I’ll probably do a similar video on that! :) thanks again.

Is streaking grime the final unifying wash, or can you ga back and highlight the model without them looking out of place?
@WarpGateStudios
@WarpGateStudios 2 жыл бұрын
The wash is one of the the last unifying pieces of weathering you can do. You could go back and do chips etc after the weathering but it may look out of place. This purely grimes everything up to the same level as a finishing piece!

I saw in a previous comment that you use it as a final unifying wash, did you use any other washes throughout the normal painting process up to the point of starting this? Or do you think this is enough of a wash that they are unnecessary?
@WarpGateStudios
@WarpGateStudios 2 жыл бұрын
Honestly it’s up to you and your painting method if you use layering, washing or any other dry brushes along the way. I used a simple line wash on the space marine initially with highlighting it. The weathering pigment does bring a lot of stuff together on the model and gives it a cohesive feel as everything is weathered with the same color. How much of the pigment you leave on the product is totally up to you as well.

There are other brands out there of oil based washes. I find it’s a lot easier to work with than acrylics as there is a longer work time. I also wouldn’t say it’s a buff. It’s just taking off the oil wash from places you don’t want it to be. No wax on wax off style. :)

Could you take it completely off on some areas just by using thinner and a swap or bud? Or will it slightly tint/stain the colour a tiny bit? I’m going to try this out for my Orks! Just curious on some of the behaviours of the oils.
@WarpGateStudios
@WarpGateStudios Жыл бұрын
Totally dependent on how much thinner you use after putting the grime on. It also depends on how long you leave the grime to dry on there as well. You need to make sure to start working with it within an hour or two otherwise its harder to remove from the model! Cheers for the comment!
