These figures are SO FRICKIN COOL!!! I'm a 1/35 scale military modeler who builds dioramas and has to populate them with a few figures. I'm always on the lookout for some new tips and tricks to paint them, which is how I found channels like this. Watching talented figure painters like this makes me want to give some of these fantasy figures a whirl! I never really paid attention to just how many types of miniatures were available but since I have...WOW! What an AWESOME hobby! I can definitely see the attraction to this!!
@@vividius7951 What are your favorite types of figures and are you just an observer, or do you actually build and paint them? I make WW2 dioramas, with mostly German and US soldiers, but I have great appreciation for ANY well painted figure. I especially like "Black Watch" figures (I think that's what they're called), y'know the Scottish Highlanders wearing kilts with plaid patterns. I never painted one but that looks challenging!
@@MikeS-um1nm no I don't make dioramas, I'm afraid I haven't got the technical skill although I like looking at them when they're well done. I like Napoleonic's and medieval best but I've been daring myself to get into WW2 stuff. Most of the models are perry's for the 28mm or sometimes Revell or Airfix for the smaller scale stuff 1/72. Diorama's are mostly 1/35 scale right?
@@vividius7951 Yeah mostly for armor because SO many tank models and AFV's come in that scale. You must have good eyes (or good glasses) to work in those small scales! Keep on modeling man! It's the best hobby in the World!
I don’t know if I’m dumb but I had to rewatch this like 3 times to understand the point you were getting across x) Nice video tho thank you for the tutorial
Badass move with the mosquito 😌 More seriously I love your channel and I also love the fact that unlike most hobby youtubers you didn't forget what it's like to be a beginner so you make a lot of things clearer to me (I'm not a beginner, I'm just dumb af) (also not exactly related to video but I really like your style, I think that's a cool thing to have more women on RUclips that are outside of gender stereotypes !)
Really good video, I've also seen people stipple on the mixed tone and glazing the darker tone over that. It's a bit of an adjustment, but I find for lighter colours it works best to start from the highlight/ high midtone and glaze in the shadows - a lot of light colours can be a bit chalky and leave unwanted texture when glazing.
Good video!!! It so cool, im starting on painting sororitas and i never painted before and very difficult!!! Oh, one advice, yo might low the sounds of the breaking glass, because, i was chill watching the video and this sound make my jump on the chair jajajajaja (No hate)
Basically it’s my entire summer outfits ahah I have a bunch of different brands! This one of the video I think it was a gift! Maybe vans this one?? You can find plenty of these pretty much anywhere in the summer! Try thrift stores as well!!
Pretty good vid. The only thing I would say is that when you are mixing and blending you have a problem of consistency for a large model group. Either you paint the lot at once or get used to the idea that the blended colour is going to be different next time. This is because, for me at least, a blended colour and its generation not only relies on the paint, medium for thinning and its application. It is also impacted by humidity and temperature which where I am can vary greatly in a day or two. My strategy is to batch paint in units of five. Though I did do a schlock load of pox walkers where variation was a bonus.
Glazing... cool kids using theese days... people were using glazing since like 11th century :P I've been glazing heavily till i started wetblending and feathering a lot. And also thing i picked up from Richard Gray, that is texture blending. You don't have to blend if you make van gogh out of your miniature :P Cheers!
Hey, no I use Patreon just for people to support my work and to give video feedback on their minis! I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have some other pdf's available both free and to purchase - sign up to my mailing list so you are always on top of that!
I used to do it without considering it glazing, maybe after this video I will apply it more consciously and with better results. By the way I never received the email confirming subscription to the mailing list, is this normal? Grazie continua così
I am not subscribed but everytime I need a advide for a new technique I want to try on my vanilla flavored space marines, your channel make a heroic entry in my suggestion like superman. maybe it's time to subscribe
That’s odd! If you send me an email at ataraxiapainting@gmail.com I can check if you are on the list. Once you sign up you should get an email to confirm, click and that should be it!!
Glaze medium! I use liquitex, but golden makes it too. That was was helped me, it makes it transparent but not thin. I add about 60% glaze medium/40% water or so just eyeballing it, and finally my glazes aren't becoming washes or fully opaque.
Guess it really depends on what kind of result you are after: if you’re trying to blend two layers sure, if you wanna apply 37744773 thin coats idk because medium = texture
When you understand that with these paints (miniature acrylic) all layers are transparent, even basecoat most of the time, with the exception of intended for high opacity specialised paints. You unlock the next stage of miniature painting: All of it is transparent, every layer over another layer, letting something of the layer beneath show through. So underpainting a colour under another colour can have an effect. You can paint in shadows and highlights beneath an intermediate layer, then apply them again over the top in places they aren't strong enough. Controlling how much you have on your brush is always key to control though, more so than shaky hands or expensive lighting set ups.
Absolutely solid content. Well explained and shown. I suck at explaining these things...Or anything really, so you guys are the real MVPs 😂 A few others like Mamikon are also awesome at it, we need moooore of you in this hobby.
@@ataraxiapainting I also have issues signing up. It says that it will send a form of verification email but ive tried two different emails and no such thing has arrived. And Ive checked the junk mail
My favorite part about glazing Is not thinning my very fist layer enough and leaving stains, ruining all my work underneath...this is the way
i watched 2 videos from your channel and it really helped me realize some things compared to other painters videos
Ohh that’s nice!
Thanks

just discovered your channel today, painting 100 way better than yesterday, thanx
🤭🤭oh that’s flattering but I think it’s mostly you 👀
@@ataraxiapainting 100% vero, anche se faccio ancora schifo
Favorite glazing video I've seen yet, subscribed!
Awesome! Thank you! 🫀

Same here, I think we may be on the spectrum.
LOVE THE VIDEO, easy to understand and with examples
Glazing something I always find a challenge, thx for the insight

What a cool comment!! Thanks!! Well maybe I can explain like that because I also identify as dumb AF lol - I bet you are not tho eheh
@@ataraxiapainting I can't be not dumb af if I understand because you are 😇 Either both of us or none of us 😌
Great Video.
Genuinely disappointed over the ear disk not being a tiny paint palette.
… it can be arranged…
If you put some water on the paper towel before hand it wont steal as much mositure when you wick the paint
I use cheap art paint to glaze since it doesn’t cover alot, it helps makes smooth gradients for me.
Super helpful information entertainingly delivered, as always. Lurve it.
Thanks 🤭🤭🤭
I've never thought about glazing like this. very insightful. and I agree, Fa Caldo!
Ahaha indeed! Hope that helps btw!!
Your videos brought me back into Mini Painting. Your videos are entertaining! Keep making them!

@@ataraxiapainting Same here! PS mi ha preso alla sprovvista sentire l'italiano alla fine!
I recently started glazing with thinned contrast paints and it's saved me a bit of time doing the. Still looks like trash but hey it's done
Maybe with c paint you should try using medium if you are thinning them down a lot! (I bet it looks good!!)
Mr.Miyagi'd that mosquito. When can we get a tutorial on how to do that?
Thx, for the nice and usefull advises
😆😆😆You are amusing and right.
If you told me 'I can make glazing easier for you'
I would reply with 'you underestimate my ability to make a mess' 😂
I cant get glazing to work, it either becomes too liquid and runs off uncontrollably or is too thick to glaze.
But is it too thick????
Glaze medium! I use liquitex, but golden makes it too. That was was helped me, it makes it transparent but not thin. I add about 60% glaze medium/40% water or so just eyeballing it, and finally my glazes aren't becoming washes or fully opaque.
I always used a medium for doing this.
