It's the intricate shapes of a human-shaped mini that I struggle with. Or even to take it to the extreme, something tiny like glowing eyes or lasers on a gun.

I’d really like to see a full focus video on how to execute a SlapChop+++ base (that emulates an airbrush base) w’ Series D brushes on a regular size, somewhat fiddly type w’ swords & spikes and what not, infantry model.  I often struggle to use the right size brush for such models. A general guideline on what type of application (not just the SlapChop base) requires what size brush could be an extension to that tutorial. Got a whole set of Series D’s, but only managed to source (through many hoops) a size 4 & 2 to the Series S…but I can tell so much that they are becoming my favourite brushes over my Rapha 8404’s.  Keep ‘em top notch videos comin’!

Awesome video, the only complain I have is on the last example, the door would 100% be lightly lighted. Light bounces around and when it hits a suface it gets reflected even if the surface is not shiny. Shiny just means higher reflection (I'm simplying here). Being in a nook with 2 walls in view of the light there would be a reflection of a combination of the wall color and the light on the door and the rest of the nook. It's easier to visualize with a 3d software to be honest but it's definetly there. This way the door just looks like it's missing a part to allow for integration in the scene

As always, amazing work! Would love to see you tackle a challenge on how to change paint properties to make them better for drybrushing. For example using mediums, etc. to make matt paints better for dry brushing to get a smoother result then you otherwise would. Also a question, do you get better results with gel based paints or regular medium paints?

@ArtisOpus 11 ай бұрын

Top-notch suggestion here, and something I am thinking about a lot at the moment... For reasons 👀👀👀... Regarding the mediums/base, it's mostly just about whether the paint is high quality or not, IMO, you *know* whether you're using good paint or not, instantly, and as long as it's not paint that takes far too long/too little to dry, it's generally more reliant on the quality of the base, not the type. This is something I'm still learning, though :)

Our pleasure, man, plenty more coming soon! Obviously I'm a little biased having designed D... But I can't help thinking that it's not a coincidence that a lot of the people recommending them are still using paper towels, not involving moisture, and also are specifying 'cheap' makeup brushes. It's a good thing though, more people trying drybrushing is always better, and they'll find the light eventually when they realise how smooth it's possible to go (or get bored of replacing and relearning their brushes on repeat, rather than once every 2 years)

For example how do you OSL like this on a figure with a face and hair and clothes. Can you just slap on the paint the "same" way and notice a difference? Thanks for this video man. I'll have to tag you when I get mine done up.

Id love to see a way to do osl with only contrast paints if thats possible. Would be interesting how it can work with slap chop. I cant find many videos on how to do osl with slapchop

@ArtisOpus 7 ай бұрын

Hey buddy, you can definitely pull it off using slapchop style, I'd recommend 'finishing' the mini, painting the source white, and then gently drybrushing 'away' from it with white, followed by a couple of thinned contrast glazes over the top, or a product like tesseract glow, which is quite similar to a contrast anyway.

@@ArtisOpus thank you for this. Would be interesting to see a video on it. Do you know if citadel has other paints similar to tesseract glow that aren't green? I plan on painting a game called Tamashii and it will be my first time painting minis. I want a couple colors of good fluorescent paint that works with cyberpunk neon scheme of the game.

So, you go from blue green to yellow green. Where would I come from for blue? And where would I come from for yellow? Not sure of direction on the colour wheel.

Great tutorial! Your videos are very valuable! I wonder though, if I prepare some different paint blobs on a dry palette, they will be dried up in few minutes. Are you adding some retarder to keep them fresh?

very nice! what are you using for brush cleaning, is this just a sponge with water?

@ArtisOpus 7 ай бұрын

It's our 'Dampening Pad' It's not cleaning buddy, it's for releasing a small (predictable) amounts of moisture into the brush to keep the painting smooth, although that does aid the cleaning you see me doing on my palette. It's part of all of our Drybrush sets store.artis-opus.com/collections/series-d-drybrushing

@mathieuayel2982 11 ай бұрын

Can you do OSL on a lighter base rather than something dark being lit up?

@ArtisOpus 11 ай бұрын

You absolutely can, it's just slightly more tricky and less forgiving (check Rich Gray's instagram, or other top-level painters, plenty of white helmets out there) instagram.com/daemonrich/?hl=en-gb

All your examples are on 40k building bits, do you have any suggestions of cheap AoS or general fantasy stuff to practice on? I can't see a hand held torch being as easy to paint as a light bulb.

@ArtisOpus 10 ай бұрын

We actually have a flaming torch and flaming spell on the channel! It's 50/50 this and 'reverse' highlighting for the source. They are a bit more complex... but also IRL are way more varied, so more forgiving as a result. Grab some scenery, anything with a window, or flamey-torch, they often have sources in scenery and undead kits in particular.
