I "watched" the whole video, and realised the model that I was working on I had actuallyu blended the whole banner on without paying any attention to your recommendations. One of the advantages of the various high flow paints is their slower drying time, makes blending a whole lot easier. :) That said, the simplicity of your stippling method and its ability to build texture is great. Its very similar to the "sponging" method that Trovarion has used in his simple Grimdark series. With the advantage of not having to mess around with sponge :)

@ArtisOpus 11 ай бұрын

You're closer to oil paints with the retarded ones, that drying time means you're working wet on wet for longer, so it makes sense! Thanks buddy, being mentioned in the same sentence as Trovarion is lovely, I really respect his work and teaching ☺️

Your tutorials conitnue to be amazing and have some fantastic advice. specifically with "the blends don't have to be perfect" mostly because of the distance you are viewing them at they will appear perfect and your eyes will see the desired effect. obviously view things super close or under a magnifying glass will obviously show up any imperfections. This is important if you are competition painting of course but I find table ready with a bit more detail my ideal balance between time spent and quality of the mini. But then my goal isn't to have display or competition minis, its to make my board games look good on the table while playing. Currently dealing with the Frosthaven minis and how the last one was introduced really inspired me to paint it immediately.

Slightly smaller brushes (if access or control seems to be an issue), and use less steps. Smaller is more forgiving in a way, make sure to judge it at arm's length. Dilution control is your friend. You might want less steps but more diluted and using strong paints, for example. Good luck!

@ArtisOpus 11 ай бұрын

It can/does look great, I wouldn't say it's 'best', but it's definitely not the 'no-no' that people think it is, for some reason. As long as you're using strong, fine pigment ones, it's absolutely incredible. What it *is* best for is multiple stages, metallics like the above don't layer up and get chalky, which is the think you're trying to avoid with multiple drybrush steps, so in that way, it is superior, you can just go and go and go, back and forth, until you're happy, it allows for pretty incredible highlighting/realism :)

Have you experimeneted with Pro Acryl's Transprant Paints. I'm struggling with using them because they are so strong despite being somewhat transparent. You can make them more transparent by diluting them with water, but I'm wondering if using a medium might be better? I often hear people starting with 50/50 mix of Transparent Paint/Flow Improver or Water. The problem I have is Pro Acryl Transparents are not considered Inks nor are they considered typical acrylic paints, yet they are strong undiluted and apparenytly there are several used. Id love to try Transparent Green and Transparent Yellow over a weapon, however its alost like you blend the basecoasts and then apply the Transparent paints, as they are sort of act like filters?

@ArtisOpus 11 ай бұрын

Dilution is hard, it's something it takes a lifetime to master, if they're stronger then it might be worth diluting heavily with water (all their paints dilute nicely), and practising with subtle glazes first, exactly like you outlined in your last sentence. Give it a go man, be patient, don't rush, don't expect perfection!

Not exactly related to blending but I’m having a huge issue with my pre contrast dry burnishing rubbing off of the primer with the slightest of friction, even just from a brush is enough to strip everything back down to the primer, any suggestions?

Hey dude, give us some more info please, how are you applying your basecoat, what brands of paints, primer, etc. Another comment please, not a reply, they get lost very easily!
