I can recommend using acrylic fine point pens for things like camouflage dots and squiggles or any fine lines for that matter. Also soft pencil like B4 used over the top of black weapons to give that underlying metalic look. Thanks for all you do. Regards Lexi

I'm always impressed by anyone who can paint eyes. Also, these Star Wars models you've been painting look like better, crisper sculpts than the actual licensed Star Wars Legion models.

I think part of it comes in that I do my own quality control. 😅 But the prints generally come off very nicely, without a lot of cleanup required.

I was hoping at the back of my mind you would leave the trooper all googly-eyed. I can't help seeing that image in my head.

Awesome as always! I really liked how you just fixed your camouflage pattern in real time. We all been there and grabbed a colour that didn’t work out the way we wanted. Who hasn’t? And you fixed it with another colour in seconds, proving that mistakes can be fixed by just painting it over. Cool 😎! Thanks again! Cheers 🍻

I like the color scheme and given the backstory it is a good choice. You did a great job on the eyes and having tried that myself I know how difficult it is to paint them. Thanks for sharing this.

I don’t know how you continue to manage to post exactly what I need exactly when I need it. I had just decided to pick up my old legion starter set from home and was wondering how to paint my rebels!

That's a solid paint job that is readily achievable. I really like the palette. I always have trouble making pea dot look random, so I'm gonna try the mouse ear thing.

These new Sw minis are astounding, being 3D prints means that you can choose the dimension, contrary to Legion's ones, beautiful but too big. I always liked to imagine a "First Contact" situation, where the rebels steps on '80s Earth, and can be aided by Western industry with uniforms and gears(plus some very experts soldiers!). P.s. cheap make-up brushes are great for dry brushing, normally I wash them with brush soap and a bit of fabric softener, so they' re more durable.

This is going to sound like a super duper noob question, but have you done any videos that focus on how to LAYER stuff like cloth? Because I see a lot of videos and such saying things like "stay away from the recesses" but when I sit down to try and do a cloak or robes or anything with non rigid shape, it's hard to tell exactly where those parts are sometimes.
@SonicSledgehammerStudio Жыл бұрын
Unfortunately, there isn't really an answer to this beyond practicing and getting your eye in for it. Since the folds and curvature of any miniature are wildly different to one another, short of demonstrating on individuals exactly how to do it, 'stay away from the recesses' really is the only broad advice that works. Just remember that if you do overdo your layering or highlights, knocking things back with a thin shade will help any exaggerated transitions.

Nice video, but also a little bit strange that your choice of miniatures in the past 6 months looks almost identical like my own pile of opportunities in my basement...

Are these 28mm or 56mm models?
@SonicSledgehammerStudio Жыл бұрын
There's a long answer, but Legion miniatures are considered 1/48 scale - they hover around 38mm or so.
