I just got into Star Wars Legion which also happens to be my first miniature game. The paining process seems very daunting for someone as non-artistic as me. However, your videos are very educational and give me confidence. I'm hoping I can star paining in a few weeks once I have gathered all material. As a beginner I will probably just stop at the base colors. They look perfect for me at that point. Thank you again for these videos.

Some people will insist on, or feel financially limited to, using cheaper craft acrylics to paint miniatures. Let me stress that WHITE is one of the colors that you really need a quality, high pigment paint, designed for models, such as citadel, Vallejo, etc. If you try a cheap white, you may have a hard time getting the coverage and texture you need, and with it, you can make a mess of your models. Spend the money for the good paint, it makes the world of difference, and is critical for white...
@RahulReddy-eq5zy5 жыл бұрын
Uncle Deadly I know this comment is ancient, but I'd like to absolutely stress the same with Yellow. Yellow in my opinion is sometimes even more important to get right than a nice, crisp white. There are plenty of cheap acyrilics out there which can fill many roles, however my ones I wouldn't trust at all and prefer to get proper ones when I have the avaliable cash.

Tried both the IA method, and the Legion method. The IA method of priming white, adding detail and using nuln oil is so much more effective for beginners like me! Drawing on those eyes and mouth pieces without looking like moustaches and sunglasses is so hard, but it's a walk in the park with Nuln Oil getting into those recesses. They call it Liquid Talent for a reason!

Hi MrUzzynator! I'm glad you found my IA approach to painting Stormtroopers useful. I agree - throwing on some Nuln Oil is about as easy as painting gets; I just thought I'd present an alternative approach in the Legion video for painters who dislike the work involved in highlighting the armour back up to white after applying the shade, which I know some new painters struggle with. I feel the more options we have, the better :)

@Sorastro6 жыл бұрын
Hi Bill! It kind of depends on how clean you'd like them to look, but overall I think I prefer this method - especially for newer painters as it avoids the need to add any white highlights which can be quite hard work. Additionally, the grey or black lining - which is pretty optional - is somewhat easier on the Legion Stormtroopers due to the slight increase in scale and definition over the IA Stormtroopers :)

It looks like when you applied the white primer onto the grey primer it speckled a little bit, perhaps your paint in the airbrush wasn't thin enough or maybe that is just the nature of primer in an airbrush? I've also never been able to get a very good spray out of a rattle can that works well for a base coat. It's an interesting idea though and I'm excited to play around with it. Great video and awesome paint job!

Thanks a lot! If you're referring to 3:17 that's not white primer - it's white paint. The Model Air paints actually come pre-thinned ready for airbrushing but I do still add a couple of drops of air brush thinner :)

Patiently hoping for a clone painting guide and wondering which unit colors you will use, I painted mine as the phase I 212th Attack Battalion, the orange fits well with the glossy white armor imo.

Thank you! I actually finished my Clone Trooper video a while back, and I'm just waiting for it to pass licencing approval before I release it. (I also love the 212th look...) 😁

Nicely done, as always. I have been follwing your videos for ages now, and it cost me a lot of money since it started me on a way down to miniatures gaming and painting. ;) And I wanted to make one suggestion ever since I tried to paint my first stormtrooper: Find someone who has no or little experience with painting and let that person try to paint a figure based on one of your videos. And then point out everything the person does wrong. Because, while your videos show how should be done, I still have to make all my mistakes myself, if you know what I mean. A "mistake video" could be helpful, especially for beginners, and even intermediates. And while I'm writing: I would love to see your approach to a Runewars scion, i.e. your approach to painting bark. Just saying. ;) And lastly: Your Kingdom Death figures are the most impressive miniatures paintings I've seen yet. Anyway, I'm looking forward to whatever comes next.

Thanks Akuyaku! I'll give some thought to showing how to tackle mistakes, but it's usually just a case of touching things up as I go along.. I'm glad you liked the KDM video! I have the White Lion in my painting queue :)

I was thinking of mistakes like: priming too much/little, thinning colour too much/little, having too much colour on the brush and all these things beginners may struggle with. I found the IA stormtrooper one of the most difficult figures - white is a challenging colour and combining it with washes is challenging, too. Anyway, just a thought. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
