Hey Kujo. I've noticed a lot of other painters talk about their process as if it were all planned out from start to finish, and they are just executing on that plan. What I like about this video is it shows how and when to makes changes on the fly, and how to fix things when they don't turn out like you thought they might.
Oh I definitely plan it out, at least somewhat, but like a lot of plans, they gang aft agley. :)
@@KujoPainting mice are devils for laying their best plans.
They're like wizards when you get them on the draft table.
Absolutely old boy, couldn’t agree more.
I always feel good about my work, until I see your videos. Then I run into the shower crying and try to wash away my shame.
lol, sorry! :D
Your channel is fast becoming my favorite miniatures painting channel. Just so good!
Thanks a lot, good to see you're enjoying the content. Cheers! :)
Your videos motivate me to paint so much. I'm not good enough to use your techniques, but just seeing the tip of your brush wiggle around the mini makes me want to paint.
Good! Only way to get better is to grab that brush and hop to it. :)
Wow. This guy is amazing. I've watched a bunch of other miniature artists on RUclips, never again, lol!!
Lol thanks a lot, appreciate that. 😇
Love the color lessons at the end
Thanks! :)
Yeeeesssss. Starting around @15:10, fuggin yes. That's the kind of practical color theory we need to see more of!
ha, I forgot that was in there. Sometimes I watch older stuff back and have no memory of actually making it. >.> . But yeah, the colour theory stuff is fun to mess about with. Cheers, glad you like it. :)
Most excellent tutorial, so glad I discovered this channel! Nice music too, light jazz is an interesting choice to ease us into the project.
Thanks mate, glad you approve. :)
Fantastic information. Great work!
Glad you like it :)
Fantastic
Cheers!
Love your work
Thank you.
Excellent work mate
No video is complete without the Nick stamp of approval, thanks mate, glad you like it. :)
great vid i love the explanation of contrast and tone recognition most vids just tell you what to do not why you do them well done :)
Thanks a lot, glad you found it useful.
A yeah, the right stuff for my weekend tea and biscuits. Thanks for this one, it's superb in all aspects, but then all your videos are.
Now thats a plan. Rich tea or hobnobs? Or even chocolate digestives?
@@Mikey__R Only the best Aldi can provide, the rest got splurged on new minis.
@@Clone16165 I'm a fan of either no name 50p custard creams, or if I want to splash out, chocolate hobnobs. Or jaffa cakes, if they're on offer.
But you can't dunk those.
challenge accepted.
Truly impressive...and magnificient!
XD
This is a fantastic video
Thank you :)
Awesome! Love the part with the turquoise on the cheekbone and the theory part at the end!
Will the other tutorials be on YT too or do you need to be a patreon?
Thanks mate glad you liked it. There's no plans to put the other ones in the series on youtube in the foreseeable future.
great work / great video i've leaned a lot thanks
Thank you, you're welcome!
Beautiful work as usual I got given a 1/10 scale bust and I'm about to paint all the flesh and I'm bricking it LOL kutgw take care my friend 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🐑😁✌
lol, you'll be fine once you start. Busts are, in a way, easier to paint because it's not so hard to see where you're putting the brush. Don't worry, remember it's only paint. :)
'got given'....you mean received?
@@maxbrandt6 what ever I wasn't talking to you any way LOL I don't read other people's comments I'm not that sad
@@neilmackay7475 Who said I was sad and if that's the case then they should remove the REPLY feature on this social media site. Heaven forbid people communicate with each other here! Have a not sad day, Neil!.
Jog on
hello, may i ask the source of that music?
It is 'Nighttime Stroll' by E's Jammy Jams. :)
Nice tutorial, would you ever consider painting in eyebrows?
Neva!! lol, maybe. I think on this scale eyebrows aren't all that needed, although that might just be me trying to rationalize away my fear of painting them in.
@@KujoPainting I had to paint eyebrows on my last female model. She looked a bit silly without.
Actually, I wonder if you'd like to do a critique video on her?
What size brush are you using and is it synthetic or hair?
It's a size 1 kolinsky sable. The element games regiment brush.
What model is this?
It's an elf from the hasslefree miniatures line. -> www.hfminis.co.uk/shop?product=resin-master-%252d-ellania~hfmaster-e014&category=fantasy-%26%0D%0Asteampunk~fantasy-elves
how are you priming these minis? they seem to have an almost speckly look
I do one coat of primer so I don't lose any details, the speckling is the resin showing through under the primer.

Buckle up buckeroos!
Excellent tutorial. Your knowledge of colour is very good and you really simplify it making it easy to understand. I like the comparison at the end with using the green square surrounded by darker and lighter tones, very well illustrated. I've just subscribed, I like what I see here. I too have a RUclips channel where I mainly concentrate on military modelling... figures, armour, aircraft etc. If you have a minute pop by and check me out. Thanks, Scott.
Thanks mate, appreciate the kind words. Thanks for the sub, I'll check out your channel. Always nice to see another creator! :)
No problem. I'm always glad to support quality channels like yours.
:0)
How would you so TMM
I prefer using a mix of drybrushing and washes for TMM.
Painting is fabulous but the mini quality isn't great... or it's just the enlarging :p
It's sub 25mm. :)
Honestly Kujo. You’re the best teacher for painting on RUclips. Your detailed explanations are knowledgeable but you don’t leave your audience overwhelmed. Plus, mad skills dude.
Now I just need some talent.
Thanks very much, I do put a lot of effort into getting the balance right on what I'm explaining. Glad to see it's not all for naught. :)
Thank you for the video and for leaving in the error correction on the eyes. Messing up can dishearten a lot of painters and knowing you can fix it prevents panic.
Thanks! Oh I always mess up on the eyes, usually a lot of back and forth required to get them right. Especially on a model this small. :)
Not much to say today. Besides BibbidibebbidiKujoyou'resexitty.
Trying to think of something witty to say that isn't racist and I got nothing! *mumbles something in spaghetti*
F,ing BRILLIANT ! Thank you. This kind of tutorial really brings the art closer to accomplishable.
Awesome, glad you found it helpful :)
Hey man, loved the video and came in handy! I especially like how you explained the bit of color theory and knowledge along with it. I feel much more ready to apply it in my own painting.
Awesome, thank you! Glad it was helpful to you.
To reduce the size of the forehead, you could have painted eyebrows. Why do so many minis don't have eyebrows? And so many painters don't paint them? They are a part of facial expression.
Yep you can do eyebrows if you like. It's really down to personal preference, this model is very small, I think at this scale it's not that big a deal to leave them off, sometimes it makes it look too busy, similar to why you normally only paint the lower lip.
Will we see how you paint the wooden bow?
Hi Arthur, I don't think that one will be on youtube, sorry about that.
Kujo! I freaking love your videos. I especially love the inclusion of color theory. My favorite videos of yours' are the kujo critiques where you're fixing the colors on a mini. I would love to see a video on why certain colors DON'T work together. I've been all over youtube and haven't found any that focus on this. Anyway, Keep up the fantastic job!
Thanks! There should be more colour theory stuff in the future, I'll see what I can do. Cheers! :)
I always learn loads from your videos. The way you teach the theory is fantastic
Glad you like them!
Awesome video like always! The theory bit at the end was like the cherry on a cake ... delicious.
2 Things I want to ask you :
•After erasing your mistake with a damp brush does it bother you that a slight blue tint remains near the nose?
•How do you address the paint residue that creates a not very smooth 3d texture after building layers over layers? Other areas are more forgiving but on the face it's very obvious. I noticed it a bit on your model too but it's not showing anymore on the finished product.
I didn't realize I left a blue tint? I'll check on the model, I might have (hopefully) painted it out later. You can reduce the little balls of doom by washing your brush out a lot in the water pot and reloading with fresh paint. Also not over working the paint when you put it onto the model, try to place the paint and leave it to dry. If you fuss about with it a lot, it'll start to dry a little and your brush will 'churn' the surface and create little balls of dry paint. If you do get a little ball or flake of something, or even a bit of dust , you can you can lift it off the surface with the tip of your brush assuming you spot it, while it's still a bit wet. But if it dries in place the only way to get rid of it is to get a sharp scalpel blade and very carefully cut it off the surface. If it's dust you can usually tease up one end then grab it with your nails or some tweezers and pull it off the surface. Then you can touch it up with a bit of paint. I usually do that off camera if I get any because I have put the model really close to my face to be able to see what I'm doing.
Awesome!
Thanks!
AS always full of great information and very cool music
Thanks!
Tha mi gu math. Ciamar a tha sibh fhèin?
Tha mi ceart gu leòr. Tapadh leat!
@@KujoPainting gun robh mìle math agad. Sorry if I used the wrong form of this words in this context. I‘m still a bloody beginner in scottish gaelic. You must be quite a highlander arenˋt you?
Perfect as always !
Thanks chap.
What is the mini you used?
Hi mate, it was this one here www.hfminis.co.uk/shop?product=resin-master-%252d-ellania~hfmaster-e014&category=fantasy-%26%0D%0Asteampunk~fantasy-elves
Really nice. Tiny though. It's about 25mm base size.
Thank you! My wife loves your vids and fell in love with this mini.
@@brianhunt8273 If you're buying it for christmas, it's 50/50 on whether you'd be able to get it in time. HF are having a bit of an issue right now, lots of delays on their orders. They do fantastic minis but just giving you a heads up on the delivery issues.
Fantastic video definitely a must watch, I totally suck at faces lol
Thanks! I hope you suck a bit less now though. :)
Just got here and I already love the video
haha thanks mate :)
man ur tutorials are allways very impressive, they way you use models and such to show the effects is amazing. I bet uv been a teacher at some point. what brushes do you use?
Thanks! I use Element Games Regiment Brushes, there's links to them in the description of the video. They're really nice.
I've just started painting minis, and after having painted five minis, I'm over the blank flesh faces. But I can't decide if this video makes me more afraid, or excited to attempt the faces. Lol
haha :) embrace the fear, if you're scared you're doing something right!
15.40 what is this new devilry.
hehe :)
From what line is that miniature from? Amazing work.
It's one of the elves from Hasslefree Miniatures. They make good stuff.
Really great video!
Thank you!
Hey thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Nice paint job but she still looks like a goat!
XD
Those brushes seem excellent :o my winsors don't have such tips
Yeah I think the W&N have gone downhill a bit tbh, I don't use them any more. Those are the Element brushes in the video, really nice. Great points on them.
@@KujoPainting Will order a couple with your element affiliate link in my next order :) Thank you for the tip!
Great work and good information as well!
Thanks Charles!
thank you for being a part of a community that brought me back after a 20 years break :D amazing quick video ;) very helpful. but i have to admit.. never painted a female face so far ^^
You're very welcome, and welcome back. I also took about a 20 year break lol, that seems to be pretty common actually, I guess 'life' gets in the way for a lot of people. Best of luck with your painting journey! :)
