I briefly skip right to the end when watching painting videos to see what is being painted first and I genuinely thought this was wired with an LED for a moment. lol You do great work!

The best OSL tutorial I’ve seen! I want to do my first OSL on the Prophetess from Talisman, this is perfect😃

One thing that tends to work slightly better than just the yellow glaze is to also use a little bit of a more pale orange since that tends to cover more of what firelight does with coloration

Her face is perfect! Very informative. I have a couple of different lantern carrying figs and ive been a little too intimidated to start them.

The best OSL video I’ve seen! Thank you!

Now that is a very impressive miniature you did there my friend. The flame and the OSL effects you did are superb in my opinion. And I totally agree that the female attire here is much better than the fantasy bikini types. lol Also, that background music really made the video even more interresting too. Great work again my friend, and looking forwards to the next project! :-)

Never had the courage to try that yet but I learn a lot from you and might give it a go. Of course I had a seizure watching you speed paint :)

Stunning work. I am really impressed that this is only your first effort at this technique!

OK .... we may as well face up to it .... Christy is a stone cold artistic genius... there, I said it and I defy anyone to challenge it

Fantastic video, thanks for sharing. I have these same models as well as some of the Otherworld minis which also have lanterns and torches and I've been wanting to try this!

Great job, the miniature is very pretty and quite realistic, and you have nailed the OSL effect, maybe you have gone a bit too far in the face but, as I said, you nailed it.

That came out looking so good! Great tutorial

Cracking job! I wish mine had turned out that well... :)

very nice!

Lowlights may be the word you were looking for.

A hint for general shading I would give, is that the colour you want the material to be should generally be the brightest colour you use, as i believe we do not use an average to tell what colour something is, but the high tones (other than sharp highlights, obviously)... And add grey to your paints! desaturate those colours! If you don't it will make your army look "wrong" somehow, and it will be hard to tell. Distance actually makes things desaturate through the atmosphere, so for miniatures that are small, you generally want to give the impression that instead they are far away. When working up close, it may seem bad or dull, yet when viewed on the tabletop our brain interprets the desaturation as distance and gives the illusion of brighter colours far away. Not really heard you talk about this, yet it seems like you do this somewhat with all of your models, perhaps accidentally. This is an issue with GW and (by extension) vallejo game colours, as they are oversaturated, however vallejo's model colours are already in this range. The reason for this is actually that models sell better on the box art when they are very vivid like that, and thus people want to recreate the box art, but if they toned it all down I think they would like the results much more. It would be nice to see a collection of your miniatures from a tabletop distance to show this off.

looksgood to me and yes me do the totch with glow in dark paint so you have real OSL will see as post

Awesome :)

Exellent very interesting video;)

thanks!

Christy I have a really good idea for a german uniform tutorial you haven't done yet. A tutorial on the Schutzpolizei uniform. Google "Schutzpolizei tunic ww2" for color reference. It's a very interesting greenish blue tone with bright green piping on the brown cuffs and collar! I painted some normal heer riflemen like that and they look great! Would love to see your take on the uniform :)

Looks pretty good, I must say. Nice model too. I'm usually not a fan of OSL as many people seem to simply paint the model as normal, then add a bit of colour to one side to represent the light. But by adding the shadows as well it works nicely. There are a few points I don't quite understand though. 1) Since you use different tones to paint the light and shadow side, why bother painting part of the model white in the beginning? I though the idea of doing pre-shading on a model was that you could use the same paint all over, but if sufficiently thin the undercoat would still be visible thus providing light and dark areas. 2) I'm not sure about the yellow added in the final step. Wouldn't it be more correct to say that the light itself has no colour but that it will modify the colour of the object it strikes? Thus, yellow shouldn't be painted straight onto the model but rather mixed into the basic colours as you're painting? For example, if I put my arm under a red light, it would appear reddish. But it would be because my skin took a reddish hue from the light, rather than because it had actually turned red. Hope that makes sense?

Who made that great background music?

Great tutorial , Amazing Paint Job , Relay nice miniature too. I will say do, you seem to be talking very quick and trying to catch your breath . maybe slow down a bit
