For everyone asking about varnish over the pigment powder-I personally don't use any varnish to set it, I don't like how it changes the effect/look of the powder so I'm just careful where I apply it so it's not where I handle the model/terrain for gaming etc!

@tomdenyer3229 Жыл бұрын

Ok; but if you *did* spray varnish it what product would you recommend please?

@emanueledibona5929 Жыл бұрын

@@tomdenyer3229 do not varnish it, it will change pigment properties. You can use AMMOMIG's enamel fixer. Use it BEFORE applying the pigments, then sprinke some over it. It will be mostly powdery once it dries.

@Vrooten Жыл бұрын

@@tomdenyer3229 Air brush thinner works fine. Personally I apply powder, fix it, and then wait for it to dry completely before adding more as needed as fixing darkens the effect. Don't fix the second pass. It always falls off to some degree unfixed, even just as a display piece.

I think I’ve figured out what makes your videos so great. It seems you’re really landing the 80/20 rule, where you’re doing the 20% of the work that’s giving 80% of the results. Because your way always comes across as uncomplicated and achievable, and not tedious, while still producing amazing results. And though I’m inspired by many painting channels, yours is one of very few I would actually use as a reference before/while painting. Keep up the great work! 👏👍

You hit it right on the head. Same here, very inspired by other channels, but this one is the one I actually use as reference! On a random note, I just started painting the Octarius KT terrain set and surprise, I happened to do the exact same steps in the beginning; Chaos black, bronze, leadbelcher and contrast on top (speed paint in this case). Amazing channel!

I’m thinking at least another one for the whole paint job. Some more leadbelcher too. I’ll probably be a bit more choosy about the additional bits. Maybe do every other bulk head with more colour. At least for now. As for the rust effect. Love it. But might be a step too far considering the amount I need to do. But love the overall look and effect. Great job as always.

Do the weathering powders rub off with use? I'm guessing a coat of clear matt or satin varnish should fix them in place if needed?

@ADhammer Жыл бұрын

They hardly rub off much at all in my experience.

@tomlandy Жыл бұрын

You can seal it with hairspray

@PaidViewer536 Жыл бұрын

You could also use a matte glaze to protect the paint and powders.

@MediocreHobbies Жыл бұрын

They can run off a little bit. Some People do indeed seal them in with varnish but not a fan of the result never heard of the hairspray technique. I just try it.

Amazing timing for youtube to show this video. I've got a bunch of terrain (including Gallowdark) that needs painting up. I'll definitely be using this as a guy then adding a few little touches like light glow just for that little bit more. Do you recall how many pots of Bronze and leadbelcher you went through for the Gallowdark box of terrain?

@MediocreHobbies Жыл бұрын

Probably a full pit of bronze but not that much silver. Glad you liked the video.

Yes you should do this to avoid paint getting in and making it harder to put it all together.

one of the people in my local hobby shop, told me that the grove that is going up on the side bit if you chope it off the bit going up ,so its flat like the rest of them it is will stay togeather with out it and is easier to set up the other games that are in the boxs hope this will help

I think I would do one thing different: I would do some extra work on the doors! Not to make them looking more fancy than the rest, but to make them stand out. Some sort of faded "signal" colour. That would be both thematically potentially fitting, but more importantly, it would aid in game play by making the doors easily identifiable :-)

@MediocreHobbies Жыл бұрын

Yep your 100% correct and I do plan on doing doors all different colours and for that exact reason.

@redpill4145 Жыл бұрын

Can u ask what the signal could wour reference? I'm about to start painting mine but have never played yet. So if I could do that in a way that helps I'd love to understand that better. Thanks!

I’d give this a go if I already hadn’t started a different technique. Looks very fast & effective. I assume you used a satin varnish to lock in the pigment powders & keep the metallics from looking dull (like a matte varnish would).

@MediocreHobbies Жыл бұрын

I don’t use varnish over pigment powder! It changes the look of them and I prefer just being careful with them instead! The pigment is at the bottom where I don’t handle the model/terrain and I’m just careful with storage too!

So question. I hate green contrast paints, mainly warp stone glow (or is it warp lightning). Because it doesn't seem to cover over well. I've tried multiple way from overloading the brush to barely adding any and it still streaks showering the undercoat layer. Would you say the new green contrast that you use in this video is better?

@MediocreHobbies Жыл бұрын

There are so many new green contrast paints. And there really good but very different. Really depends what time you want.

@xiiicross21 Жыл бұрын

@@MediocreHobbies mainly a deep green like apple green. On that covers well. Warp lightning is good for small areas like eye lenses. But it always fails me on larger areas. Just looking for a contrast alternative, ya know.

Any of the paints can be substituted in, my tutorials are more about the steps rather than specific colours, if you’d prefer runelord brass then go ahead! It will give a slightly warmer end result but it will still look great!
