    Thank you for the up front review right at the start of your video. Too many people today make you sit through 30min of video to say, yeah its ok or, nope dont buy. I came for the short answer, but stayed for the long all because of this approach in you vid. Thank you thank you!

    I asked AP about Speedpaint after seeing some other videos. Their customer services let me know that they are particularly water soluble, so they recommend leaving it for a while after drying or coating with varnish to avoid the ping reactivating.

    I love these videos. I recently decided to get into this hobby an in what I will describe as an over zealous purchase. I bought one of each of the reaper bones 5 Kickstarter and now have SOOOOOO many minis I am looking forward to the army painter speed paint to help me slay some of that grey and get some progress, practice and confidence painting. These videos help to see what the limits of the paint are and get me hyped for painting.

    I just started painting as a newbie. I have a 7" resin statue of Tyrande Whisperwind I have begun painting. I really like some of the speedpaints. Plasmatic Bolt is awesome. I did 2 coats for her hair and the color just really pops. I tested purple alchemy but it was going to be too dark for her skin. I was able to use it for the recesses of her ears and brushed pixie pink over the ridges to blend it. Really worked well. I think Purple Alchemy would have been a good color to include in this set. Maybe Plasmatic Bolt too.

  • @avi8r66
    @avi8r66 2 года назад +1

    Seems like if you use one water soluble paint over another water soluble paint especially if you add additional water to it, the new layer is going to loosen up the underlying layer. So in between you would want to spray on a non water soluble clear coat, or, the new layer needs to be a different kind of paint, alcohol based or solvent based perhaps.

  • @dlh567
    @dlh567 2 года назад +4

    Instead of doing 2 layers of white ink then varnish, I've found that mixing white ink with matte medium makes it robust enough to paint on top of with a brush. I've done this with Liquitex white ink and Army Painter matte medium.

    I'm subscribed to a lot of hobby channels, but yours is the only one that I immediately drop everything for and click as soon as I see a notification pop up. I don't even use your style of painting and I'm more of a 40K fan than an AoS one (still pissed at WFB being flushed down the toilet), but I just think your stuff is phenomenal and extremely well put together. I'm starting a soulblight gravelords army and I'll try to use the techniques you teach. Thanks a lot for everything and cheers from Montreal!

    @H0urg1ass 2 года назад +1

    The additional time it would have taken probably would have cut too deeply into getting a video out on time, but perhaps adding a varnish layer between coats of speed paints would prevent the under layer from coming off. But then you're looking at a few hours curing time for each layer of paint... ooof.

    Hey Dana! loved the video! One quick thing I noticed is it comes out pretty glossy, isn't it? I dunno if that was the desired effect but or a by-product of the primer. Would coating it with a matt varnish afterwards solve that?

    Hi Dana! great vid as always: question though, did the paint recede into the model’s nooks and crannies through the airbrush like it would’ve if it were applied through by brush?
    thanks, again, great video!

    • @Jathom
      @Jathom 2 года назад

      I can't say about the Warpaints, but it doesn't do it with Contrast paint through an airbrush. It acts more like a filter or ink. I would assume that the Army Painter Speedpaints react in a similar way.

    @TheModelVault 2 года назад

    I'm new to your channel, 1:39 - I'm primarily a large figure scale painter (statue) and have never heard green as a base for red before? I'll have to try it, but can you explain more about that. In my circles we use Tamiya silver as a base for red or yellow top color.

    • @randomnickify
      @randomnickify Год назад

      I think its more color theory thing. In the shadow of the color you will see hints of its complementary color, hence green to red will gives you more vibrant shadows.

    A masterpiece! Also, question for anyone here: I just assembled and primed the 40K Kill Team Warzone Octarius set that I received from Santa. For the metallic Ork fort structures, is there an Army Painter metallic that would work well to produce a rusty/bronzy metallic effect similar to the Octarius box art?
