I am painting miniatures for warhammer 40k, age of sigmar, marvel crisis protocol, D&D and much more! Whether it is superhero miniatures, heroic characters or space marines, I will paint them! If you are looking for some sweet miniature painting tutorials or warhammer hobby content in general, this is the right channel for you!
Starting next month you can also catch me streaming on twitch! www.twitch.tv/zumikito_miniatures
In other news, the glowing brain of the tyranid was inspired by @elminiaturista !
The problem with telling us we suck is making everyone who isn't an expert painter feel shit about the minnies we paint
Mr Surfacer
Great to see another 'Explained In 5 Minutes' video. They're all brilliant - clearly explained, informative and entertaining (which keeps me engaged) - and this is no exception. Thank you and please keep making them! I'm also DELIGHTED to see you're going to be streaming! 😀
No.2 "Dont go in dry" amen brother...amen
Most important step
Thats what she said
Don't you know girls like the bad boys???
Tis what she remarked lol.
Also I believe it was Nerf Super Soaker said it best, "wetter is better!"
I don’t have steady hands, so I use dry brushing as an alternative to edge highlights, simply follow up a heavy dry brush with a wash. Gives a nice sharp edge on vehicles and armor without the toonish appearance I get when trying to edge highlight. For example a Deathwing color scheme zandri dust spray, heavy dry brush with terminus stone, then wash with agrax earth shade… that gets your armor 90% done. Or dome enough to start working on other colors.
I just received the Artis Opus XS D brush....I think it's going to be my edger 😅
Best way I've found is to think of it as the 'wet brush dry paint' technique, you want your paint thick because that creates a nice strong colour to apply with (I've left paint to dry for 5-10 minutes before to ensure this and it worked amazing) and then of course the damp brush so that the paint wants to slide off the brush whilst still being smooth.
'Don't go in dry': wise words for many situations
Ahhhhh....a visage to life itself 🧐
But what about British comedy....
Was about to type something similar but ya beat me to it xD
*Slaanesh liked that*
Great to see you giving drybrushing the 5-minute treatment!
If we cross paths at a con please come and say hello, we could do some in person :)
Will do! Tbh if I didn't see the way you drybrushed your GUO, I wouldn't even give drybrushing a chance 😁
I beg either of you to dry brush a white or bone like deathwing scheme for the community 🎉😊
@@Zumikito😍The Big Papa brings many gifts!
Love your work, man!
You're the best . I just upvote before watching i like how you dont wast my time. Even the fluff is entertaining. Thanks man for the no bs lessons which keeps my short attention from wondering. If i ever win any painting competition ill be sure to to give credit where credit is due.
This video actually fixed my main problem I had. I was wondering why my models were either too dusty or I had too much texture on it. My brush was not damp.
Same here i had one model come out fantastic and was like in figured it out! (No idea what i did different) next model dusty.
Cant wait to try it again now that i know whats up
I’m trying to figure out what I learned here.
same, its the same shit in every video, nobody has any actual useful information
The mold line on the necron arm actually looks good to me, almost like the sharp edge of a mechanical part.
I'd love to see more bugs painted in this scheme. It is quite cool!
Awesome! Thanks for this video, you really point out everything us sucky painters need to hear
Really enjoying your videos Zumikito. Great advice, humour, and cool techniques to try. Keep up the good work!
Great to find a video I never knew I missed or needed, thanks for the work.
Hey, Zumikito, thank you for your videos - I am using them as a manuals for improving my painter skills❤❤❤
You now made me very happy I bought a Leviathan box
This was a good tutorial. Thank you for teaching me something new.
Circular motion also works if your are lightening up a base coat after shading, note BEFORE highlighting edges and stuff.
Thanks for explaining the concept with clarity in 5 minutes. A lesser man would have tried to stretch this topic into a boring and redundant 15 minutes.
If you dont have a dampening pad you can use your wet pallete in a similar manner.
Great Video full of useful tips. Thank you!
Betting butts to brushes is never a winning strategy. A good video for speeding up the mass painting
Dude, I watch these just to laugh at your jokes! Bonus... it makes me want to try more dry brushing! Model looks great.
If you have a bitz box you can take a few (different shapes) and practice. You can test everything, pressure, brushes, paint, .....
Cool tips. Thank you.
Does anyone know what product is used at 0:52 ? Sounds like an easier way to fill up gaps than milliput or greenstuff!
Hobby trick call sprue glue… it’s tamiya ultra thin with old sprues tossed in and melted into the glue mix to create a plastic glue. I believe zumikito or another mini painter RUclipsr talks about it in another video of theirs. It’s your gap filler only glue, basically one bottle devoted to this stuff, not your regular glue. Hope that helps!
@@conorboehm746 thanks mate!
I've been out of mini painting for nearly 15 years. It feels like there have been so many advances and innovations in technique and the equipment available, that I don't know where to start 😂
What green paints did you use on that tyranid?
Great videos…thanks.
are you able to give a little detail on the colours/method for the brain section? I really like the look of it and want to try it myself
I like your style of content. You paint pretty good also! lol
Is it wise to just dry brush a mini instead of highlighting it manually? If so why or why not
Thank you bro ❤
Thanks for the tips! I'm brand new to painting minis and I'm going to be trying drybrushing for the first time on some tyranids. I'm going for a very similar pinky/magenta skin tone and when i saw how awesome the green carapace looked with it, I'm thinking of ditching my original plans (scarlet red). Could you please tell me which greens you used, to help me ponder it over?
He paints that Tyranid model in 2 hours and it looks so wicked. Me that would take like 2 days lol. If you dont have a air brush or a spray can. Can you dry brush a light white for a zenithel highlight ?
What's the thing you're using to get the paint off your brush before doing the dry brushing? I really like it.
A texturepallete.
You can make your own. Just glue a bunch of plastic bits packed close together.
I love the green carapace, it looks amazing. I was wondering if you could tell me what paint you used as the first green? I have ae similar scheme for mine for the carapace but my first green is very thin and needs sooo many coats to be smooth!
the very first layer was russian green from ak!
I too would like to know the colors used
I'm wondering, but would it matter what type of Drybrush I'm using? I'm using one of those M drybrushes from Citadel, and if it matters, what are the optimal brush shapes or brands?
This was hilarious, thanks XD
where did you get that painting mat? that would be great for me to test how much i paint i have
Don't go in dry. Words to live by!
i have two armies the one i play with and the one i paint to look good. the army play with i don't mind if it looks frumpy they are game models lol.
love that beard
What's the stuff you use to fill the gaps, a Tamiya product from the look of it?
Ok, Thin Cement!
What is the Matt/pad youre using to get the extra paint off called ?
Great tips! A damp dry brush is new to me. By the way, I cannot find your "sprue glue" video. Is it only on Patreon?
Oh no, it's free and in the end screen of this video!
Thanks for the quick explanation. After watching a lot of Artis Opus videos on drybrushing I still struggle to get the correct ratio of paint and moisture in my drybrush. Do you think that texture palette helps over some piece of cardboard?
Though I'm still new to drybrushing, the textured palette I bought from AO makes a world of difference as I find it allows the paint to grab the brush better when pulling off of it.
Almost spat out my dinner @ 3:48
What drybrushes are you using here and where did you get them? Thanks!
What is that palette you use in the background?
it's a textured palette from Artis Opus
I made one from arms, heads, and random guns and stuff. it works really well and I find the familiar shapes and surfaces give a solid feel for how the paint will interact with the surface.
@@Zumikito How do you clean it between sessions?
Hello Zumikito, Hello everyone, I'm fairly new here and I was wondering which platforms you use to 3D print your Miniatures or those that you think are the best !
what kind of paint did you use, if it's not a secret ?)
I'm interested in colors
Yeah, I'd love to know what the colours are here?
Cany you explain how to clean dry brushes?
I will start drybrushing very soon. But what i had to ask. After a session u have to clean your pallet right? Some creators build a pallet out of old plastic pieces or so. I thought that would be very hard to clean up. but if you dont do that then the pigments are still there right and you will eventually reactivate them in the next session. Also if you use very light colors that could be a problem or isnt it if the old paint is totaly dry?
most of the time it's not a problem, but if you are worried about it, you can simply prime the drybrushing palette again so you don't have to clean up anything
Hi, what is the brush you were using for dry brushing please?
Me looking at the one which it should look like: "Hey, that's me!"
6. Support any flimsy delicate parts, so you don't knock them off.
Im shit at painting. Those space marines look fine to me. I would play.
I tryed to remove a mold line on a halbard and bent it 😭
ciao la base dove metti i colori, che materiale è?
Where did you get the texture mat from?
This is something completely unrelated to the video, but does anyone know why when im painting resin minis, if i hold part of the model to make it easier to paint, any paint around edges and other close areas keeps coming off. Does anyone know how to fix this? Or is it as simple as using a clear coat after you prime
Which sizes would you recommend from the Artis Opus drybrush range, Zumikito?
I bought all of them (given this is my profession) and maybe you coud skip on the biggest one and the smallest one. If you have a tight budget, you might even try some cheap make up brushes before comitting to them
@@Zumikito I actually have a cheap makeup brush set.. I just really love the look of those Artis Opus brushes 🤣That's so sad...
Another how to not suck video suggestion would be washing! I can’t use acrylic washes! I spend time painting something and then decide to use a wash because your supposed to right lol. Then I’ve screwed everything up. Especially on skins my solution I don’t use washes aside from the occasional pin wash or oil wash. I would love to learn to use acrylic washes! Please help by making a not suck a washes video!
Don't, oil washes are just superior.
Dilute your wash before applying?
Better to use multiple pale washes, to get the darkness you require, than accidentally wash with too dark a shade.
What do you use to fill in the gaps? I have been trying liquid greenstuff but I am never happy with the resoults.
Sprue goo.
When your plastic glue runs low, toss some fine sliced sprue bits in.
They dissolve into a liquid plastic paste.
Use a new clean glue bottle for gluing, use the goo for filling.
As each clean glue bottle runs low, and the brush doesn't reach the bottom, add it to the goo.
You can keep a goo bottle going for years.
How can you make dry brushing less wasteful?
I have painted for some time already and you could count on your hands how many paint bottles ran out. I wouldn't worry about it - I would rather have a nice model than being too careful with my tools
A lot of times i try to remove these stupid moldlines and when i paint, i see how much i havent seen 😂😂
The big issue I have with dry brushing is that always ends up looking flat, dull and chalky. Yes it highlights the raised edges but also makes the surface look two dimensional. And it's just so overused and obvious.
Zenithal airbrushing followed with a wash (or pin wash) to always looks SO much better and you can then use edge highlighting to bring out the to top level detail, if needed.
2:26 I totally disagree with you!
I think this is a great style. It could just be a bit more visible. Yeah its not super smooth but who cares? I like this almost-fog-like layer on the armor :)
rules 2, 3, & 5 are for more than just miniatures. Or so I've been told... apparently I am also optimised for speed. 😂
You were going to mention how to easily fill the gaps before Drybrushing. Hints are welcomed.
Spruegoo
How I have to find a way to prove this is not helpful for the cheeks XD
Always go in dry ...
if your players need classes to read cards they definitely don't see any caps on miniatures xD
Mould lines on necrons aren't as bad as with something like Nids. They still look like shit though.
slap chop shows those mold lines like no other, you think you got em all but nope...slap chop finds them
You didn’t address the worst drybrushing mistake: streaks.
Man has a lot of faith in not drybrushing small details to bet his ass cheeks on it.
vid needs time stamps for the individual tips
*promosm* 😆

Water melon
I can't imagine spending 2 hours on a mini. There is no in game value for the extra work.
First comment🎉
Bro what is this accent?
This may sound like copium but I kinda like the dusty look IF it's on metallic armour. Sorta makes it look acid splashed and chipped.
it's not copium if you like it 💪
@@Zumikito thank you, King 🫡
