After Zumikito’s glaze drawing, we have Ataraxia’s glaze dry brushing. U guys have always the silliest but also most amazing techniques that level up our painting game. Thanks a lot Ataraxia!
Just wait until you see MY paintballing technique. It combines the compressed air approach of the airbrush, with the time tested approach of spilling paint everywhere. BUT FASTER.
Ive been doing something similar to this from a Trovarion video where he painted some Ultramarines with stippling, using sponge or brush. Its a pretty awesome way to paint stuff up quickly without worrying too much about perfect blends. They look pretty awesome battle scarred and beaten.
Yeah, then you can just do a super thin tint/glaze with the midtone and it smooths it all right out even more, if you don't want the real beaten method.
No you’re right this is just stippling. I had a feeling something was wrong when she claimed a random brand was the brand to start making dry brush brushes. “There were no dry brush…brushes” yes there were lmao
Yes it’s absolutely stippling with dry brush and glazing stippling with a dry brush, I just call them tapping motions instead of stippling, same same. The interesting thing was the different dilution of the paint, how much you wick off etc.
Haha nice tips, humor and cheat sheet! Keep it up the good work! I totally wanna try your technic in my future squats and my aeldari vehicles Instant follower
Great video. I'm happy to see I already do four of these for my training. I'm glad you address that training knowledge changes over time. Would you have any suggestions for wrist prefab exercises?
I recently started doing this for my army painting. I didn't like how flat my armor panels were with just edge highlights. Stippling with a big round brush shadow to highlight colors gives the armor depth, but without taking nearly as long to do glazes. It doesn't look as amazing as having smooth blends and glazes, but man it is way faster when i have several dozen models needing to be painted.
Actually I never saw him do it, moist dry brush, yes, this thing here, nope! Point to the video, I’d be curious to see it. Ps saaatna fine, you got me but I’m telling my mum you being mean :(

This is great, I’ve been sticking to the heavy metal style of just edge highlighting but want to try something new, what paints did you use for the green?
Next dred/tank I paint I am definitely trying this method. Feels like that moment in The Social Network when Justin Timberlake tells them to expand to Stanford: Byron needs to see this.
Once you get the hang of it, it’s actually pretty fast! I painted 2 dreddy in no time and you can scale it to display adding chipping or extra refinement
This is great, but I swear my paint dries within seconds of application. Are you running a humidifier or something to keep this stuff wet once it's on the model?
Uhm now it’s coldish here in Italy, but even in the summer when it’s really dry you should have that little window of time. It’s small, but it’s gonna depend on the paint you use, weather, and of course dilution!
A very interesting and useful video. Thanks for teaching. One thing I haven't tried is to paint big models. This solution can be very good for walkers and other stuff. Just a question, is possible to combine it with the airbrush use?
She talks to much and far to in depth I feel like Im in Techniques of Painting 101 in college again. As a long time painter myself use whatever rounded brush you like best either a large brush for large areas and a smaller brush for small or tight areas to brush. And for godsake people use a lamp to help give you, your darks and highlights. Where ever the bright areas are is where you want to paint, drybrush or stipple paint your lighter color of paint and dark areas or shadows where you want to paint your darker colors. This technique of painting is not all that hard lets not make it harder than it needs to be. KISS (keep it simple stupid) as we would say in art school.
Thanks for the spoiler :( ahah but no, no need for expensive palettes or brushes. I did the bigger work with ak brushes (5€). With the sponge it would be similar, but different also. It doesn’t have bristles so you can’t get the stippled look, plus the liquid absorption might be harder to control imho
You should try this with makeup sponges. There are people who paint whole Gundam kits with them. Gives them a fairly airbrushed look.
Very much a ‘trust the process’ approach, it all comes together at the end. Definitely a great way to paint big vehicles
👍👍 great technique and it scales really well, from big brush on a big area to small brush on a small area!

As far as a teaching channel goes, this is very very good. You translate concepts into language well, and cover common mistakes etc.
Isn’t this just stippling? It looks great but I don’t see the distinction from a technique perspective

@ got it, that makes sense. Thanks!
Would this work well using foam/sponge instead of a brush? Gentler on the paint?
This looks insanely good, I'm gonna try this tomorrow! Thanks for sharing :D
Very interesting! Thank you for putting this together.

Thank Jesus that I got recomended this! Going to attempt painting a Carchacodon Marine. And this is actually helpful 😊😊
I did light a candle at church yesterday so it must be Jesus ehehehehh
@ataraxiapainting yes. Hope to learn more. And Jesus Bless

You mean thanks to Rosemary & Co, who made them first, and make Artis Opus brushes. Much cheaper too I might add.
I heard about that, never tried them tho so i could only speak for the more general experience
love the mix of yellow to the green to build contrast.
Little spoiler, the secret of this scheme isn’t the yellow but the blue shadows 🤫
Amazing results.
Glad to see that this technique is gaining traction. Byron from Artis Opus has been doing this for a while and it's one of my favorite techniques.
She is really just copying him to push her paid services/products...
Actually I never saw him do it, moist dry brush, yes, this thing here, nope! Point to the video, I’d be curious to see it. Ps saaatna fine, you got me but I’m telling my mum you being mean :(

Yes, "unevenness" is a word, not to worry! This is a really cool little technique I'll have to file away for future use and reference, for sure.

Love it. Thank you I love this 🖤🖤🖤🖤
EVERYTHING has changed now!!!!1!!
I knew ittt!2!!!2! Hihihi
The model looks great! Awesome finish on him. Do you varnish your models after painting? I have heard that some people do. What is the benefit?
you would suggest this technique for display or for large army painting ?? because this seems slooooooow

Subbed. I’m trying this next. Thanks
Thanks for the sub!
hahaha nice thumbnail!
just found your video, subscribed to the channel, great stuff
Awesome, thank you!
Dry brush stippling? Bulk stippling? Hmmm... Interesting, as in other comments, I can see how this would be handy for large models.👍
You're painting is good too

I think you could, if you go with a grey scale and then tint with the airbrush! I think it should work and allow you to maintain the texture!
@@ataraxiapainting Thanks for the tip. I hope to try it soon.
Thanks
I dunno how else to say this, but you have fuckin' good tutorials. Go you!
Is that Carrie Fisher?
What program did you use to map your highlights? Not very tech savy
Just my silly farty brain ahah
Might have been photoshop, but you can use most paint programs, I use opencanvas
this thumbnail is soo inspired by brians ;P
i thought i was the only one with just one stretched ear
Welcome to the club lol
Hedge highlights
Yes that’s the right way to say it

This is either the wettest dry brushing I've ever seen.... or this is stippling.
You're badass!!! Please enable donations for us to contribute!
I likee
Spoiler: the key is a sponge
but dont forget to buy a wet palette and expensive (although good) drbrush as well. this is not the entry to good dry brushing
What about using this technique but using sponge/foam instead of a drybrush? Would that be gentler on the paint do you think?
Thanks for the spoiler :( ahah but no, no need for expensive palettes or brushes. I did the bigger work with ak brushes (5€). With the sponge it would be similar, but different also.

@@ataraxiapainting Ah ok. Thank you for the feedback!
Seems like a "trust the process" thing but the process has no redbull so i don't.
This is what happens when you don't dry brush with a dry brush...
If you get your brush wet with water, then dry brush, you get a glaze type of effect
