    Sorastro, if you were to be kidnapped, chained to a desk, and asked to paint some 700 to 800 minis, give or take 2,000, what types of cuisine would you like to keep such a high standard of perfection in your work? Asking for a friend.

    Direction you pull the paint when you brush it on is something you’ve touched on a number of times, and always bears repeating. It makes a huge difference when you are blending multiple layers as your doing here. Stunning work as always

    This is truly crazy (in a very good sense)! Well done Sir!! This work is truly a masterpiece!!!
    I was trying to paint the Wookie Leader from Star Wars Legion as a black Wookie. But failed miserably! Maybe you feel inclined for a black Wookie challenge?!? I found it very diffcult to paint with black and white and still look good. The brown Wookies I painted where based on oneof your previous video on Chewbacca and Gahrkan. They look great! But the black Wookie...so difficult!!!
    All the best from Hamburg, Germany!

    I had been thinking that the greens were perfect for the Warcolours Olive set.
    Though some sections of the video show a much greater shift to blue than others making me doubt my initial thought about the olive tone

    • @Sorastro
      @Sorastro  6 лет назад

      Boba's green sure has quite an ambiguous tone for sure, and due to how it reflects light from the environment I think there's a fair bit of latitude to play around with the colours 😀

    I don't know how you keep topping yourself, but this is one of your best videos. I love how you changed the thickness (opacity) of your paint for shaded areas and lit areas of the figure. Can I ask why in some of your videos you choose a wet palette and not in others (like this one). Is it merely for variety in your channel? Or do you prefer one technique over the other? Thanks.

    • @Sorastro
      @Sorastro  6 лет назад

      Thanks a lot John! Regarding the palette, I certainly like to use it when I'm using wide-ranging gradients (like in the next IA video which is Thrawn) but I still sometimes like to use a dry palette just to show my viewers that it isn't essential to use a wet palette in order to paint well. I also feel that the dry palette helps me keep things (hopefully!) a bit neater and easier to follow :)

    I've just started using Tamiya's Fine White Primer, and I definitely find it superior to Citadel's Corax White which I find comes out really chalky. Chaos Black and Mech Standard Grey are really good, but I feel like they somehow run out more quickly given their larger size, strangely?

    • @Sorastro
      @Sorastro  6 лет назад

      Hi! Yes I also find that.. maybe it's because the Citadel primers blast a greater volume of paint out with each spray perhaps?

    • @Sorastro

    I havea rather specific question. At 15:00 you wetblend either side of the cape, from light to dark to light. I am currently working on an excercising figure to learn some wetblending (yup, that's your influence) and I encountered the one edge of the previously painted area drying up while I wetblend the other. Is it just the Glaze Medium that extends the drying time that much (I use Retarder) or do you reapply the previously dried up edge of the area before wetblending. I hope I phrased that understandably.
    Awesome paintjob and choice of colours, as always.

    • @Sorastro
      @Sorastro  4 года назад

      Thank you! Yes - you can use Glaze Medium or pure Retarder to slow the drying time, but may still have to work fairly quickly :)

      Hi Jose! I think it really is just down to the brushes I like to use. Since filming this I've actually switched to using the Rosemary & Co Series 8 (Size 2). It's a really lovely brush that holds its point very well: www.rosemaryandco.com/watercolour-brushes/pure-kolinsky-sable/series-8-pointed-round :)
