    Me at the store buying a pack of baby wipes
    Clerk, smiling: "Oh, man! Are there any news at home?"
    Me: "Well....yes. I'm trying to paint some marble effects"
    Clerk: "...pardon me?"

      I just found this guide today and was like, oh yeah, I'll just order some baby wipes real quick and..... ooooh yeah. It's like, more hoarded than toilet paper lol. RIP my marble effect. Thanks corona virus!

    Gotta say dude - very cool. I've heard of people doing this, but this is, hands down, the best tutorial I've seen of this technique.

    Fantastic video. Also a video about trusting the process, because half of the time i thought that you ruined it, only to be proven wrong by a fantastic effect. It is truly surprising how things change in this hobby when they completely dry.

    I tried this today and it worked perfectly. Even on small bases. Just wrapped the baby wipes round the base. There was some weird residue though. Maybe I didn't put enough varnish. But it kind of added to the effect. Thanks. The bases look sick! Hope the models match the cool base!

    Jeez that is beautiful. I wish I owned an airbrush now. I’ve got a base that would be perfect for marbling. Any chance you could experiment and maybe make a video for a technique with out an airbrush? 😅😅

    • @traviss3913
      @traviss3913 4 года назад

      You could use rattle cans. It doesn't HAVE to be airbrush but you'd of course have more control with an airbrush.
      Also, check out Amazon for some beginner airbrush sets you can get some really basic kits for roughly $100 they have everything you need for starting out/experimenting. That's what I did and eventually upgraded to a nicer airbrush but still use the crappy compressor.

    Hey! Great tutorial. A suggestion about the dust particles and their fixing: Would it be a nice idea to give the base a final varnish coat and apply the pigments just after that so they get stucked?

    • @RobPaintsModels
      @RobPaintsModels  4 года назад

      That would work but would probably change the colour of the pigments. Also part of the benefit of using pigments is that they can be removed easily if you don't like them. Applying them over varnish removes this benefit.
