    This week I decided to finally take on one of the most difficult minis in my collection. This Slaughterpriest has seen some things, and I had an immensely difficult time getting him cleaned up. That being said, this is the perfect opportunity to talk about some things you can do to save almost unsavable miniatures. A little extra texture can add quite a bit to the story of your model, so why not take advantage of that and make something awesome!

      That brought back memories of hours and hours of standing in the model aisle looking at models I wanted to build, but was told "no, girls don't build models". I couldn't even put together my barbie dream house. My mother was really mad that I wasn't excited about it because I was always staring at those models.

    Another tip on the hard to get off paint. And I recently ran into this on some old 3rd edition Blood Bowl plastic figures from the box set. Not sure what they were painted with. But even with the ultrasonic, L.A.'s Totally Awesome, and some mild heat from the sonic, they were taking forever to remove. Harbor Freight, Wal-Mart, and various hardware and home improvement DIY stores sell these three brush kits. One with stiff plastic bristles, one with brass bristles, one with steel bristles. I used the steel bristles one and started scratching the paint layers with them. Then the paint started to break down. The same brush was used to get the last bits of paint along with some dental pics. The plastic will have micro scratches that make it look hazy. But it's a lot like sanding with a really fine grit. Once you hit it with primer, it disappears.

  • @garfieldwithissuez
    @garfieldwithissuez 3 месяца назад +15

    So I'm only about two and a half minutes into the video and I have to agree with you 100% about not using acetone on anything but metal models . But I would like to add that if you are in fact using metal models that acetone is about the only thing that you really should be using on them because it takes everything off incredibly quickly and it gives you a beautiful white metal finish on almost everything and is perfectly ready to start the painting process over again.

    Having been a hobbiest for the better part of 40+ years there's some helpful tools I can recommend. One is a fiberglass bristle brush from AK Interactive. It'll abrade any tough to remove paint in any nook and cranie. You'll need to use it in soapy water though as the microscopic bristles can break off. Two is that there's several brands of "Decal/Enamel paint remover" made by hobby companies. They won't harm the plastic underneath, but will remove the enamel paint and primer. Hope this helps. Love your restoration of minis and channel. 👍☺

  • @TheMichaellathrop
    @TheMichaellathrop 3 месяца назад +1

    For those weird lumps on his arms, I was thinking the pointier ones could be done up as itty bitty horn growths, and the rounder ones could have been either done up in a different skin tone or a wode blue to make them look like a form of scarification, I really thought you were going to go with the latter when you said you wanted to bring in more blue.

  • @MaskedRiderChris
    @MaskedRiderChris 3 месяца назад +4

    I only use acetone when I need to melt glue bonds on metal minis--I learned the hard way that anything other than metal melts in it! It's no good for stripping paint, in my experience. Looks like that thing was a chore and a half to clean, but the end result looks great! (Just don't get me started on how much a pain NMM is for me!)

      For the most part that's where I would take it, make it something in a faction that has that type of thing going on already. But, the grimdark can go deep into some of the "cleaner" models. If there's a will, is what I'm saying. Definitely a lot easier on a mini that already looks good all busted up and gross though lol.

      haha, I can't remember what it's called (maybe modulation?), something I learned from Caleb Wissenback. He uses it a lot on metallics and I really like it on things like knights, it's definitely taking the same principles of light placement on nmm and using colors to give the same effect.
