Airbrushes are wonders, but doing these marble bases by hand is an act of art. The paper tissue & spray is a fast way to slap an effect on... but these are PAINTED. Every line an act of creation by an artist, not a stencil of a diaper. After 100 of these bases you'll be a much better painter. After 100 airbrush stencil bases you won't be any further forward as a painter but you'll be a masterful nappy ripper.
Let’s face it you can’t get the staff these days without a smart comment. Fantastic base and will use it as inspiration for my elder models which are drying for some attention.
Another great and inspirational tutorial video! Well, I am now going to have a go at this technique, on the remaining blockwork, on the outside of my current book nook project - a Greco-Roman style, fantasy, 'Temple to Infinity' (with an infinity mirror built inside). I think that I will paint a green/turquoise effect on the one course of ground-level marble blocks, while the one course of blocks that run horizontally along the top edge, of the side side walls, will be done in a blue-ish marbled granite effect. I have already tried another marble technique for the main wall and roof areas, using an airbrush, to create a silver/blue grey with a subtle hint of yellow ochre; while parts of the front of the building have fluted marble columns, supporting horizontal marble slabs, all in gey/pink, with two half round side tower/pillers, of a light-ish grey/green marble. The interior of the 'Temple to Infinity', has more of a sandstone look to it, along with parts of the entrance and wall sections between the marble areas. Then I also, very lightly, dry brushed over all of the interior stonework, as well as the stone and marble at the outer entrence, with several random blends of the Vallejo Colour Shift - Galaxy Dust paints; this has created a subtle quartz-like effect to all the marble and stone work, which, even if I say so myself, does actually look rather good! Once all the remaing marble areas have been done, the final effect will be to (using a template) fade/feather paint, first in black then Scale 75's Abyssal Blue, the back third of the temple roof and sides (diagonally from roof to bottom corner), along with the whole of the back wall, and then to paint a cosmic, multi galaxy and nebulae, scene over that!
It looks great and i prefer the controlled method when compared to the typical baby wipes used. The colors you chose are also really interesting and look awesome.
Very cool. I haven't based my Dwarven blood bowl team yet, and wanted to put them on some tile of some kind. Marble seems like a really cool thing for my idea.
For those asking how to get the crackles on the base, if you don't want to sculpt like Juan did: Tiny Worlds makes resin "dungeon bases" that look like this one. I used them for my army of sisters of battle, they look great 👍
Gracias por el tuto, ningun angloparlante se atreve a hacer esto sin aerografo, ole ahi el tio jajajaj Más o menos es como tenía pensado hacer yo un intento, me has ayudado a confirmar que funciona, así que me atreveré ;)
Put GS on base, spread with fingers. Put way on your table, press hard until the surface is COMPLETELY flat. Scribe the tile lines carefully and the cracks, wait for it to dry and trim. Profit. That's it. I don't think that is worthy of a video but if people want it, o might make a video.
Not really, it's literally 2 minutes worth of work. Press the GS flat against the table, and just inscribe the lines, that's it. You can see how to do them in the Cursed City basing video
Qué ganas de verlo tenía, igual intento hacerla para el reto de este mes. Qué chula te ha quedado! Qué has puesto masilla verde sobre la base y has ido esculpiendo las roturas y la separación de baldosas?
I need to find a substitute for Agrax Earthshade because I drank the rest of it earlier this week. Maybe thinning down some Rhinox Hide with a whole bunch of flow improver and water?
Okay but how do you do it with an airbrush 😙😙😙 love the choice of colour and would like to replicate it on the armour panels of my imperial knights…have to rely on an airbrush for that because I really can’t freehand on that much surface
Hola, muy buen trabajo con la pintura. Una pregunta, como fue que hiciste las baldosas, como se llama esa masilla. Soy nuevo esto y quiero que mis sororitas esten sobre mármol pero quiero hacer esas baldosas. Gracias.
Thanks, it's super easy to do. Just place the GS, press firmly against the table with lots of water until it's completely flat and smooth, sculpt lines carefully, let dry and trim. Literary 2 minutes of work (excluding drying of course)
Una pregunta de que marca es el blanco que usas tu Juan? Hasta ahora he estado usando white scar de citadel pero es cierto que es bastante grumoso, no se si tendras una opcion mejor
Uso varios, no tengo una preferencia, a veces es el que esté a mano. Citadel Ceramite White (RIP) Kimera Titanium White Daler Rowney FW White Ink Schmincke Heavy Body Titanium White
If I was going for a base that's part pink marble park earth (Like a destroyed city) what kinda earth tones/paints would you recommend to best compliment this? I was originally thinking a muted brown like Steel Legion Brown but would love to hear what the expert would recommend
Amazing tutorial! One question: what brushes do you use for the contrast and shade paints? Do you just use your good sable brushes? I was watching the Iyanden video the other day and i was not sure which brush you were using.
I'm sure you get asked stuff like this all the time, but where do you get your dropper bottles for Contrast? I want to transfer mine but I can't find those larger sized bottles. Great video, as always!
If you wanted a different color would you just swap out Volupus Pink for another color (and perhaps the other ones too). I want red marble so I would go for Flesh Tearers Red, for example.
I don't even own gloss Varnish, I think it only hides your work but it is a personal preference, I would never critique someone for using it. If I wanted for it to look shinny I would paint the shine in but I'm mlre of a display kind of painter.
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures I like it for very specific applications, where I want the gloss effect. Can be good on lacquered armor and marble. Here is a dwarf I painted with gloss varnish on the marble shield: www.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments/gmmt53/art_my_forge_cleric_is_finally_ready_to_cast/?ref=share&ref_source=link
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures I can totally appreciate that. Looking forward to your videos mate. You got me back into 40K when I stumbled across your Salamanders contrast video. Love your work!

Been waiting for an airbrush free "How To" for ages. Looks great
Thanks
Honestly, just get an airbrush. They're super useful and immediately up your paint quality level by 2-3 times.
@@yerushalaimnehereset I just don't have the right set up to use one really sadly.

Indeed Marbelous!!!
Will defiantly give a try for that. Thank you so much!
Happy to help 😘
Looks awesome - don't forget the gloss coat oat the end! It REALLY sells the marble.
I personally prefer not to, if I want a gloss effect I prefer to paint it in myself but it's a valid option for sure
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures :O LIES!!!

Looks exactly like the real thing. Well done, master.
Gracias guapo 😘
Beautiful base! And seeing you sculpted them is even more impressive!
That's super basic sculpting. It's literally just pressing GS into my table and drawing some lines. 2 minutes per base max.
Thanks BTW
Thank you , Juan .
Thank you for watching mate 😘
JH for the Win!
Thanks mate
Muchas gracias por este video, Juan.
Un placer
Fantastic and easy guide. Saved it. Thank you.
Thanks for watching 😘
Great tutorial. Thank you so much.
Thank you for watching 😘
That looks incredible wow and its not the usual wiping technique used for marble either
Thanks, and no ,I personally don't like that technique
Oooh very useful vid! Thanks Juan!
Thank you for watching 😘
Absolutely amazing work. I love this color marble color.
Thanks mate 😘
Very nice marble 👍👍👍

Amazing...its marbleous!!!
Thanks 😂
Superb!

Yeah, with basing you usually have two options
1 - Expensive but quick
2 - Cheap but labour intensive
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures they are expensive indeed
Both options are 100% valid btw
great job !
Thanks 😘
Your a funny guy Juan 🤣 love you're intro's and can't wait to give this ago think this will be perfect for my Numenor LOTR army
Thanks mate 😘

Dale caña, es sencillo y funciona muy bien.
Con respecto a los angloparlantes, lo que pasas es que no son de Bilbao, ahí es donde fallan
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures Los de bilbao cogen marmol de verdad y lo meten en la base, no se andan con tonterías
Soy de un poco a las afueras
This is fantastic! I think I've figured out how I'm going to base my Word Bearers that I'm using your 'Eavy Contrast technique for...:D
AWESOME
Amazing base, really want to recreate this! Two questions tho: How did you make the base itself and how would you put the miniature on the base?
The tiles are sculpted with Greenstuff, it's literally a 2 minutes job.
And using glue would be my best guess for the second one 😂
Would love to see how to do those tiles, as I have an entire army (Dominion) that I want to base that way
Looks absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for the tutorial
Put GS on base, spread with fingers. Put way on your table, press hard until the surface is COMPLETELY flat. Scribe the tile lines carefully and the cracks, wait for it to dry and trim. Profit.
That's it. I don't think that is worthy of a video but if people want it, o might make a video.
The self-awareness is amazing hahaha
😂😂
That is a gorgeous technique. I’d honestly appreciate a quick tutorial on sculpting the tile. The cracks in the marble seem challenging.
Not really, it's literally 2 minutes worth of work. Press the GS flat against the table, and just inscribe the lines, that's it. You can see how to do them in the Cursed City basing video
Do you have some color recommendations for black marble? Maybe with green veins? Seen that in real Life and it looks super cool.
Biel-tan green (any dark green) into cracks then wash watered down black templar (any black. water down really good) over the rest of the white tile.
For black Marble I would start with black and stipple some dark green and paint the veins with a mid green
I'll try both ;)
Qué ganas de verlo tenía, igual intento hacerla para el reto de este mes. Qué chula te ha quedado!
Qué has puesto masilla verde sobre la base y has ido esculpiendo las roturas y la separación de baldosas?
Sip
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures mola mucho! Veré si puedo hacer algo parecido 💪😁 (si tengo tiempo que va a ser mes movidito🙈)
Flexing hard on all other miniature marble painting I've seen!...
You got to go big or go home
How did you get the slices and cracks in the base?
It's just sculpted on Greenstuff
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures Excellent, thanks!
Happy to help 😘
I need to find a substitute for Agrax Earthshade because I drank the rest of it earlier this week. Maybe thinning down some Rhinox Hide with a whole bunch of flow improver and water?
Any dark brown colour will do
Wyldwood, Rhinox, Dryad Bark, Cygor Brown
Okay but how do you do it with an airbrush 😙😙😙 love the choice of colour and would like to replicate it on the armour panels of my imperial knights…have to rely on an airbrush for that because I really can’t freehand on that much surface
Hola, muy buen trabajo con la pintura. Una pregunta, como fue que hiciste las baldosas, como se llama esa masilla. Soy nuevo esto y quiero que mis sororitas esten sobre mármol pero quiero hacer esas baldosas. Gracias.
Te vale literalmente cualquier masilla Epoxi. Creo que use Masilla Verde
Excelent tutorial, what paints Will you recommend to make golden marble bases?
You can change the Guilliman and Volupus for something like Skeleton and Nazgred Yellow maybe.
I think that can work
This looks amazing btw! Is there a video on how you did the base itself?
No, because it's super simple, just GS, press into a flat surface until is completely smooth and some lines sculpted onto it
3:35 there's also a bonus bacon/ham tutorial hidden inside. or maybe i'm just hungry :)
Now I'm also hungry
Oh shit, I was going to make that same joke 🤣🤣🤣
If you wanted to do this same process but for green marble, what colors would you use?
I try this on a Dark Talon ❤
Awesome
Hello juan.
Excellent tutorial! What base did you use?
Regular base with tiles sculpted with Greenstuff
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures okay cool. It looks really good

They are 20ml bottles from iBottles. Sorry but I can't remember the exact product
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures That's perfect, thank you!
Happy to help 😘
How did you make the base before painting?
Sculpted with Greenstuff
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures yeah I read a earlier comment, thanks for answering. Awesome base will look great on my sons of the phoenix spacemarines 👍
Wow you love layers lol. You must go through A LOT of lahmian and contrast medium.
Less than what you would expect actually, extremely useful tool for me though
I see how this works on a base, but how about on a miniature statue? For example, the Zeus and Hera Statues from the Reaper Black line.
Basically in the same way but you would have to add shading on top of it
If you wanted a different color would you just swap out Volupus Pink for another color (and perhaps the other ones too). I want red marble so I would go for Flesh Tearers Red, for example.
Mmm, yeah that can work
Imo you should finish it up with some layers of gloss varnish.
I don't even own gloss Varnish, I think it only hides your work but it is a personal preference, I would never critique someone for using it.
