Thanks for the tutorial. Brand new painter here and you made me believe that maybe, just maybe, I can do this. I thought the Royal Guard looked great. If you're doing the Scouring the Shire next, I would love to see a tutorial for the Ruffians in contrast paint if possible. Hard to find model before the reprint, so I'm sure more than a few would benefit and I have scenarios waiting to be played...lol

Amazing job. Just started painting my Rohan. I used darkoath contrast, but I will try my next batch of horses with your snakebit leather. I am definitely getting the skeleton horde contrast. That horse hair looks amazing. Thank you for making great videos.

@Zorpazorp Жыл бұрын

IF you use snakebite mate, do it over dark grey, and you can mix some of the darkoath and snakebite together, or add some cygor brown too to make it a bit more muited and less streaky :)

@sparkitus1988 4 жыл бұрын

pro tip #1 for the abilities of snakebite leather contrast, use it over gw ironbreaker to create a burnished gold that doesnt need washing. Metallic undercoats work really well with a fair few contrasts, my recommendation is play around on old or unusable models to see what effects you can get. Also try not to pool the paint on flatter surfaces, try and get a clean layer with less contrast on the brush. love this channel dude, keep up the awesome content :)

Amazing painting tutorial Lachlan!! I will probably use it on some riders of Rohan. Are there any more contrast paints that you can use to paint the horses? As you said it is a nightmare to paint the Rohan horses and I would like to have some variety. Cheers!!

All good but the colour on the horse didn't come out too well, maybe just a normal brown and wash would have worked better there and not any longer perhaps, could be worth a try?

@jeffdave8884 5 жыл бұрын

You are a talented painted but the contrast paints just don't look as good as your normal stuff. The horse in particular would have looked better with a light brown normal paint and a wash of agrax earthshade with a light drybrush. I know because I am in the middle of painting a ton of rohan. Thank you for posting I always enjoy your vids.

@Zorpazorp 5 жыл бұрын

I totally agree man, but the time difference is insane for me. My normal horse process is about two hours. This took literally 5min haha! I actually think I'm getting better at making the horses look good with contrast too, I might do a whole tutorial on it soon :)
