- In this video we drybrush a wall, this common piece of terrain gets overclocked with fluorescent paints to show you how you can achieve incredible, striking results FAST! The best part is this is done with just a drybrush, we spend a lot of time telling people that we don't use an airbrush to achieve this effect :)!

just outta interest, do you have the alternatative in citadel paints? have loads of them and would love to try this. I have just this second ordered the drybrush set :D
@@ArtisOpus any varnish at the end ?
Nice video Byron and you method is really great 👌🏻
The more art I do, the more I realise that 95% of good art is learning to continue through the "This looks like crap, I'm gonna do something else" stage
Totally agree - keep going, keep learning and try new things and your hobby will level up before you know it... plus we are here to help along the way!
Yes.
Something I had to repeat to myself constantly during art was "you can't finish what isn't finished yet!"
omg YES
I cant praise this company and these brushes enough. I ordered the series S set for myself last year and due to an unfortunate shipping error, received the series D instead. Artis Opus let me KEEP the series D AND sent me a series S. I have to say that I use the drybrushes as much or MORE than the series S brushes. They are amazing and just having them in my painting toolbox has encouraged me to try techniques that I never would have tried without them. Truly amazing company and product!
Thank you so much Dean, kind words, mate! We're glad you love them both, keep on painting :)
I love dry brush. My Blood Angels are painted by dry brush my mortal realms nighthaunt army as well and now I know exactly how to paint my mortal realms terrain. Long live to dry brush
Us too! Happy painting dude :)
those pieces look like the walls of Castle Greyskull. Very cool effect!
Thanks, dude, you're not the first t notice😊
Can't wait to try this out, getting some series D brushes for my birthday
Amazing, we hope they serve you well!
Best painting tutorial on all platforms, turned a complex task and broke it down in to easy segments to follow. Best tip is the adding white to make colors pop. GW should hire you
If we had a super-like function we'd be head-slamming it right now, thanks so much, so glad you're liking the content, and thanks for the kind words!
I’m in love with this video! It’s got my creative juices flowing on overdrive! Thanks for the profound inspiration and outstanding technical instruction. I would love to see how you pick details on like a mausoleum or a statue… something with some dynamic vertical shape. Thanks again!
What a lovely comment, you're most welcome, dude!
I love painting terrain, it pops up semi-regularly on the channel, I will hold this in mind, though :)
Really dig this style, its like something out of a Dan Mumford drawing
1.) I'd never hard of him, thanks for bringing him to my attention, his work is incredible!
2.) You charmer, what a compliment, thanks so much!
You’re an excellent speaker! Very clear and informative video. I enjoyed the time taken to cover theory and would recommend more in future videos. Thanks!
Thanks Troy - Really appreciably the kind word and feedback, we definitely will be!
Amazing, reminds me of old school, heavy metal inspired paint schemes. This has inpired me to pull out some paints again and do a couple projects. I am going to have to find some of those nice fluorescent colors though.
Well that's a compliment! Scale75/Vallejo are the commonly used ones :): tinyurl.com/ybdf7wzw
I need that texture pallet in my life. Good stuff bud.
It's a beautiful object dude, work of art in itself! :)
Looks awesome. Drybrushing I was first showed and thought it was not a good technique... Now I drybrush everything I paint.
We think that people discounted it unfairly as 'for beginners', largely because of unhelpful brushes! It is infinitely flexible, if you want to see the real potential check out 'Bohun' - he's one of our signature artists, and takes the technique to a new level!
Truly amazing
Cheers! :)
I found this while looking for tips on a "moonlight" effect for a werewolf figure. I wanted to give a try by dry brushing (I don't have an airbrush) and I think this is exactly what I need.
I'm now a new subscriber-
Thank you!
Awesome, I hope it went well for you, dude :) thanks so much!
Learning more and more with every video!? Thanks again for sharing!
That's why we're here🤩You're most welcome, buddy, and thank you for your support!
Watching this in Q3 of 2022, and I learned a lot!
You are such a boss with a brush, man. This is outstanding, and your explanation of color gradient theory is incredibly helpful.🤘🏼
Thanks so much, practice makes perfect :) Glad to be of help!
I happened to watch your video a year ago and I started it.
I was so lost in time that I was watching the video.He always sleeps late because he always makes me do something. This work is not common in Asia, so it took six months to get paint and tools. I don't have any knowledge, I'm buying and throwing it away, and now I've got some tools and I'm using them, but I can't get a drybrush. I am Korean. I'd like to know how to buy a drybrush. I'm learning hard, but my skills aren't improving. I'll try harder.Thank you so much for the good video.
Just what I needed, finally a way to get out of buying an airbrush! :)
Glad I could help! :)
RUclips recommended your video and this is the first time I've seen your channel. Loved this video and I'm glad RUclips recommended it! Great work! Edit: and I just now ordered those brushes from your link. Thanks!
Wow, a new convert! Thank you so much, looking forward to having you along with us in the future :)
Very nice tutorial. I like the explanations and theory behind the techniques. I don't paint much terrain pieces these days, but I can certainly apply the theory to other situations, particularly when trying to set a mood for a piece. Thank you.
Our pleasure, the technique is completely universal, a change in brush size and paints used and you're good to go!
Very nice tutorial! Thanks for sharing the knowledge!
You are very Welcome, lots more to come so stick around ;)
Outstanding technique
Thanks so much Chris :)
Yeah, keep the theory up in the videos. It's really helpful!
You got it! Our pleasure Chris :).
thank you for providing me with this video. It has given me some great ideas and techniques to paint up some new miniatures. i will have to watch it again^^
You're very welcome!
Dear Artis Opus, That is simply amazing. I am now seriously considering doing this theme for an alternate SWL Endor themed ruins. Kind Regards Johnny
Many thanks Johnny, your nice messages are making my day🤩 Hope you can show us your results on socials
Did not expect your awesome self in my feed this evening. I hope you're well Byron! Thanks for the video too.
Oh wow, thanks, Martin! Feel free to share the word! Happy painting across the pond :).
Absolutely awesome result. Stippling is really great technique.
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm wanting to do a DnD homebrew campaign that's partially based underwater and this would be amazing for underwater terrain
Absolutely dude... you could actually take the green-blue further up to really push that aquatic tone
This is a really powerful technique, and very well explained to boot. Fifty points for Gryffindor!
Whatever helps win us the house cup James, Slitherin have had it for years! ;)
Love this technique and what an absolutely amazing result. Trying to decide how to paint my Warcry terrain and this helped a lot. Brilliant tutorial, thanks! 👊
Amazing, thanks so much dude - you're most welcome, happy painting!
This looks amazing! It would be the perfect way to paint Castle Grayskull
Just put an order in for some D brushes and supplies. Received the S brushes a week ago. The 000 thru 1 are great. I am having trouble with the #3 being very soft and had to trim it but the brushes are great and I would say better than Raphael 8408s.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the feedback dude, really appreciated! The 3 is a big brush, and therefore does has a little more flex to it, we hope you love your D when they arrive!
until watching this, i was hesitant about dry-brushing and gradients on textured pieces, but this looks pretty simple to follow :)
It really is, just stick to the steps and don't overload your brush, take your time, and in no time you'll have achieved something amazing! At that point it is just practise, and experimentation :)
Exactly what i was looking for, ill start my warcry terrain but i want a Minas Morgul look (Lord of the rings) and this... this is perfect, Thanks!!
No worries, dude, it should be absolutely perfect! That terrain is awesome, I am sure you'll have a great time🤩👍
I'll DEFINITELY use this on my Gloomtide Shipwreck!
That's perfect dude! We'll be doing some wooden terrain tutorials in the near future :)
This looks amazing. Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure dude :) thanks so much!
I just saw you guys have started putting out more videos with Series D, this is the first I caught so far but am super impressed! Been on the fence to pick these up for a while, please keep up the great content I’m sure I’ll have to pick them up sooner or later. Thanks for your work and be safe
Our pleasure Joshua, take the dive, you won't be disappointed!
No thanks to you for tempting me to pick my brush again with those gorgeous paint effects !
;) that's what we're here for! Happy painting dude, grab a set of series D and let us know how it goes.
Well done ! looks great !
Thank you so much 😀
This looks brilliant, great video too. Thanks man 👌
Thanks, you're welcome Michael!
Damn this got me hooked and fooled xD You make it look so simple. I tried my hand at it, and were not as skilled, so my results suffered. Might try to hide behind an airbrush next time! Hopefully I'm better with that. But it certainly swayed me from just slapping on contrast paint, since it looks way better ^^
Be patient dude :) New techniques always take adjustment. It is almost certainly down to dilution and quantity if paint on the brush 😊
True, I know practice makes perfect ^^ But experimenting is part of the fun too :)
Kinda wanted an Indiana Jones - Temple of Doom, feel. But your glowing neon buildings were too awesome, so I had to try atleast!
Looks so amazing. Very impressive and effective. I'm dying to have a go at painting models for our D&D group. Just have to commit to buying some paints I guess. There are too many to choose though!
Hey Darren, it can be a little intimidating at first - we have some really solid favourites on the channel, if you check our some of our other videos you'll see the same paints appearing regularly, it's the ones that're easy to work with, and give great results :).
Would love see a more natural look done similarly as well. I've got some resin ruins terrain that I want to look like it's been standing in a forest, so mossy effects would be interesting for me!
Absolutely we have this in the works!
@@ArtisOpus Fantastic! Should be a lot of people interested in painting terrain with the release of a more cover-focused 9th edition of 40k coming soon, should hopefully work out well for your channel!
this is fantastic! Welcome aboard, Mr, D. You just also be member of my "Buy Again" List. 😍
WOO! Great to hear.
@@ArtisOpus Of course All other series are already my Must owned Brushes 😘
Great video. I’d love to see you paint some Ork terrain with this method or something similar
Might be a cool effect to apply to a Necron C'tan model
That's not a bad suggestion, timely, too :)
Awesome work.
New subscriber, I found your channel by watching the TopTableGaming livestream.
Looking forward to looking through your vids 👍🏻
Awesome buddy, much appreciated
Watching all your videos before i make a total mess of the brushes you sent me.
How did we go, dude? Let us know in another comment, YT notifications are... Well, you know :)
Looks amazing. Will have to give this a go! Loving the series D brushes
Glad you are enjoying them - make sure you share your progress with them on social media & you know where we are if you have any questions!
Thanks for this! All hail the algorithm...
🙌 Our pleasure!
wow! i just found this video and love it, you got a new subscriber here....
Awesome! Thank you! :)
cheers Byron :)
Very cool!
Cheers Paulo!
Wow, i wish i had seen this before doing mine, they look fantastic :D
Time to do some more? ;)
@@ArtisOpus more more... Quick quick ! ;)
an interresting technik. i think though it would be better to use this as an OSL from a direct source of light, for example a campfire and then use oranges ionstead of green. the green would look good with some added green glowing light crystals or something...nevertheless impressive work :)
Thank you, the technique works perfectly for this, it is easier to demonstrate on a larger area, but you can take all of these concepts and use them with smaller brushes in a smaller area! I’ve just added a previous example to our Instagram:
instagram.com/p/CA3TkQrHv2k/?
@@ArtisOpus yes, for OSL this looks realy nice :) thx for sharing
Awesome!
Thanks!
might get the kids to paint their nighthaunt terrain from mortal realms this way - thanks
Thanks, nice to hear my videos are helpful 😊
Wonderful video, it made me want to work on my blended stippling , thank you for making this video, it's fantastic.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Mind blown
Cheers dude, the technique is magic, but achievable by anyone!
This could work on ghosts and energy beings, as well as scenery.
The purple seems unintuitive, until you take a look at the colour wheel.
It's not just that the shadows are actually purple, but looking at a bright light tricks your brain into 'correcting' the unlit area, like if you looked at a light bulb, and have a negative after image.
I've never given it so much in-depth thought, it's just something that I tried and knew it worked. It's great to know the reasons why it does though. Thank you! 😊
@@ArtisOpus
It may work in the other direction.
If the wall was grey, that same green-white would look opaque and dull, like a covering of lichen.
Exaggerating the shadows tricks your brain, to thinking your eyes have been overloaded by the green-white, misinterpreting it as a light-emitting source.
Either way, it's an optical illusion.
Any opticians in the thread want to weigh in?
Great tutorial, gave it a share in my discord. Keep at it!
Thanks so much, dude, we appreciate anyone spreading the word, happy painting! :)
glad I found your channel, nicely done and outstanding effect
Thank you, glad you liked it 😊
Superb video! I've been curious about this hyper-stylized fantasy approach. It looks very effective at model shows. CAN YOU PLEASE POST DETAILS OF THE BRUSH[es] YOU ARE USING? I'm interested in modifying this technique with more muted/natural colours on military scenics and dioramas, for stonework, brickwork, tiles, copper, bronze, lead, verdigris...
Thanks so much! Absolutely: store.artis-opus.com/collections/series-d-drybrushing
We use the Drybrush set in addition to the XL, also the XL texture pallet :)
Holy cow!!! This earned my like n sub for sure. Look forward to finding out what else you have available. This was amazing
Thanks so much, we hope you enjoy what we've got coming next!
Love this
Cheers!
I'd like to see this technique in the other colors mentioned
We're absolutely going to do this in the near future, purple through to X (pink?) will most probably be first :).
Love to see a metal grey/silver to blue fluoro light source
amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Could you please make a video about painting black armour? Black templars, stormcast eternals maybe? This technique with black colour would be sooo helpful!
I think we can! Give me a month or so to teach myself, and we'll come up with something soon!
@@ArtisOpus TY:)
This was really cool! Loved the extra theory and tutorial component.
(Warcry terrain be unpainted no more)
Thanks mate 😊
Thank you for being amazing.
Thank you for watching and supporting!
Super cool. Started a whole center piece around this. Thank you! Small problem: how do I get rid of the drybrush dust? It's getting in all the nooks and crannies. 🧐
Luckily, this is super easy - comprehensively dust your drybrush off elsewhere (do not make it wet OR make sure it is 100% dry) and you can just use that as a duster. Hope this helps, please share your progress on socials or send it to our email🤩
actually this would be great for deepkin bases!
It really would! It's also a great technique for their boat scenery piece!
@@ArtisOpus nice! im keep that in mind when i get to buy one of does bad boys :)
I keep thinking about this technique in oranges and yellows (and coppers maybe) for terrain wall pieces that house a treasure room. So much gold, Scrooge McDuck/Alibaba and the 40 Thieves amounts of treasure to the point that the very walls are cast in deep glowing hues. I think it would work beautifully.
I think so too dude! The recent necron vehicle's cockpit section gets closish to a very fantasy NMM copper, got my cogs turning :)
This is impressive...I will throw my airbrush away and drybrush everything if I can do this ;)
I have the exact same scenery, still unpainted. Could you make some videos about some different colour schemes on the same terrain pieces?
That's a big claim, keep hold of it, we'll combine our technique with airbrushing in the future! We most certainly can, what would you like to see? Fluorescent still? :)
@@ArtisOpus I was definitely not serious...I still have uses for my airbrush for non-terrain minis ;)
Looking forward to the combined technique. I'm sure it'll be amazing!
I'd like to see non-fluorescent colour combinations too, like grey stone or beige stone. I recently purchased those Vallejo fluorescent paints for OSL effects, so fluorescent colours are also an option :)
Thanks
Our pleasure, buddy. We released a video last week on OSL, might be a nice follow-up :)
I would really like to see how you paint the aliens from the boardgame Nemesis
Just gave it a google, they're quite interesting sculpts! If we do a tyranid tutorial in the future you'll be able to take 100% of those techniques and apply them :)
What type of brush is that??? And ive been toying with a retro wave looking kind of army... THIS technique is what im gonna do!! Welcome RETROWAVE DRUKARY!!!
Hi there, they're our Series D: store.artis-opus.com/collections/series-d-drybrushing
That sounds like a great idea, it is the perfect technique indeed! Pick up a set of Series D and keep us up to speed with your progress!
After seeing this I want to practice the technique till I'm comfortable with it. Then I want to use it on an old Castle Grayskull shell.
Practice, practice, practice! Sounds perfect, happy hobbying dude!
oranges from candle chandelier would be ace
Man, it really would, classic colour combo - would play super nicely with the deep blue shadows epecially!
Awesome tutorial! Thank you! How would you go about painting the wooden bridges from Warcry to fit in with this theme?
Our pleasure dude! I'd really recommend starting from a similar deep purple base and working your way up through some orangy-brown wood tones. You could even use the same ice yellow in the final highlight of the wood to try and aggressively tie the scheme together😊
@@ArtisOpus Thanks again! I really appreciate the hard work you put into your videos, and the advice :)
i love that
Thanks, dude!
You said about how you could do an orange version of this - what colours would you swap round for this? purple > blue > green > yellow makes sense to me but for a more orange finish how would you adjust?
Hey Robin, sorry for the delay! Did you check our new pink-peachy wall? For orange, we'd start in the same way but head towards fluorescent orange and finish with fluorescent yellow 😊
"starting to take shape in our eye."
Wait, thats not your final evolution?
Everything is a work in progress 😊
This is the perfect solution for a terrain project I'm working on. How would you do 2 to three story buildings? A slower broader transition or repeat this process for every floor?
You guessed it dude! Another approach would be to draw the darkest colour up higher (proportionally) and do the others only slightly extended, in theory it's however you like though (e.g. if you want more blue stage showing aesthetically).
@@ArtisOpus Did it. The effect is quite nice (even bought your brushes), but it is a tad too spooky/ ghost ship looking. Do you have any advice which colors to use for a night time scenery? Blue and greys?
This is fantastic. How do you choose your colors for the Blues and Purples when you know your endgame is the light greens/yellows? Someone linked this video for a question I had on FB about considering doing a monochrome/grayscale to expand my horizons.
Hi Will, great question... and quite a difficult one to answer. The first time I did this it was basically picking my favourite types of [colour] and putting them in a row, the ones I chose are deep, colour well over black, and play nice! Some paints drybrush better than others, which is why you see our favourites pop up frequently!
That is awesome to hear, there's actually incredible potential in doing this technique in greyscale, and then selectively washing/highlighting areas (Sin-City style) if you want to do something really striking, red works perfectly, but you could pick anything you liked... as there's no other colours to mess with your pallet :).
Would you be willing to do a necron video using tesseract glow to colour the weapons? You'd get alot of views from that i think
Got you already! We have done a tesseract glow video ;)
Just stumbled across your video and the result is mindblowing, especially when the technique is so simple! I asked myself if it wuld be possible to do it the other way around also e.g. black walls with an orange glow from beneath, like there is a lava stream flowing near by on the bottom? I was thinking of doing some kind of a Barad Dûr themed black wall? how would you accomplish that using your technqiues and what colours would you use for it? Keep rockin' :)
Been looking for a way to do my Thousand sons inspired terrain. doing a xerus purple -> Kantor blue -> Thousand suns blue and a Magenta Fluo from vallejo
Perhaps involve a little yellow in the end highlights for a punchy finish? Fluo blue unfortunately isn't as good as other colours. Let us know how your progress goes!
@@ArtisOpus so it wokred out fine. it got the desired effect. vallejos magenta was a bit odd to work with and the ice yellow was not that noticeble. i may be a bit inexprienced with the brushes as well instagram.com/p/CA97kpFgfme/?
@@sehgfx Practise practise practise, we're here to answer any questions, and we're working on more tutorials to help you out!
Wow
Thanks dude!
@@ArtisOpus i hope to achieve similar effects in the future. I am still a noob painter
amazing! Threw you a sub! and I hit that Bell!
Awesome thank you, hugely appreciated :)
Definitely enjoyed watching this tutorial, but the artwork behind you kept catching my eye! Where can I find it?
it's Either GW, Princess Mononoke, or a book cover by Michael Whelan, I like to be surrounded by my inspiration when I'm painting :)
Very nice effect. I'd love to see a similar approach but with 2 contrasting colours. Like a cyberpunk city lit by neon. Maybe a magenta light source from 1 direction and a cyan light source contrasting from a different direction. Do you think that would be possible with this technique?
I think it would yeah, we're also currently experimenting with harsh light and shadows using masking tape... feel there's something there but it is taking some figuring out! Could be great for search lights or open doorways in back streets etc!
Great video look very ghostly. Could you tell me what are the brushes you use?
Artis Opus :)
Thank for your reply. I realised after watching the video that you were talking about the series D brushes.
🤩🤩🤩
How do you clean your drybrush after painting like this? I'd very much like to try this method but I worry I'll need 30$ worth of brushes alone :/
I really like the pallet you are using - did you make it from scratch, or is it Artis Opus product available to buy somewhere ?
That is a produtch you can buy
store.artis-opus.com/collections/series-d-drybrushing :)
@@ArtisOpus Thank you !
question: how would you got about doing this on a miniature? like a spacemarine or simillar, i think it would look great but the size would be an issue
It takes a smaller brush and a bit more patience, you have to take care not to use paint which is too thick for the first stages in particular (which shows up more on a space marine than nurgle, for example), if you can you're good to go!
