I didn't realize those were veins until watching the video. With the turquoise glaze, I was thinking of lightning bolts. I thought it was showing some type of magic or a dragon that uses lightning. In any case, great looking wing.

@matthewbadger8685 Жыл бұрын

The brighter veins simulate that they are raised surfaces and are less transparent, instead a more solid colour that catches the light. It's an effect which mimics the vascularity of bodybuilders and very muscular animals, which have larger, wider, less transparent veins which are covered by thick skin. As opposed to the veins of less muscular, transparent skinned animals that have visible blood flow and therefore have darker red or blue veins.

Hey Stu, I absolutely love the effect and it looks as if I, as a novice painter, can do this on my Cthulhu BB model (yeah, it exists for 'reasons' XD). Quick question: the glaze with the clashing colour, did you just make that by adding water to the point that it becomes thinner than milk or did you add in glaze medium as well as water?

@TesseractMinis 3 жыл бұрын

A glaze medium is never a bad idea, but in the example it's just paint and water :) Cheers Erik, I'm glad you like it. I'll hope to see your Cthulhu on twitter :)

@DavesMiniMenagerie 3 жыл бұрын

Looks great, did you use a specific glaze medium to create that glaze?

@TesseractMinis 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Giuseppe, thanks for watching! I don't offer colour guides in my videos any more, because I don't really subscribe to the belief that they matter, or help. I prefer to try to encourage people to use their eyes, and make their own colour choices, rather than copy exactly what I'm doing. It's an important skill to have, and I think colour guides often discourage people from trying things unless they have the exact paints shown, which isn't something I want to put over in my content. I'd recommend just using the colours you think are best! Although I believe the deep base tone on the wings is Gal Vorbak Red, from citadel, on this particular piece. Good luck, and have fun!
