Of course, I was really hoping to see this one too!
ahh Romain, i love how you did the plates on the Ironclad, and to answer your question, I too will ramble to myself as I paint my minis, especially my warmachine minis, I love to find a way to tell a story through them, and will find myself spending hours to make that story come to life.
Hey, now that you guys have this running go ahead and pull my first comment? The blue paint seems to be quite a bit more watery than some of the other Vallejo paint that I have seen you used, noticed this when you mixed it. Very thin coats… Why paint with such thin mixture if your going to have to apply multiple coats to get saturation? Minimizing visual brush strokes? With regard to the rambling thoughts: “Never his mind on where he was, what he was doing….” Maybe try a zen approach, become one with the event at hand and… Read more »
Multiple thin coats works better than one less thin one for this, as you still want the base shading and white parts to show through, then the slightly speckled bits at the edge of the white give you a guide for were to blend your shades/highlights, if you do it in one coat that’s a tiny bit too thick it can obscure the shading totally. The Ultramarines have as far as I can remember always had the double meaning of “blue” and “best”(the second one being a popular but by no means ubiquitous opinion rather than fact it must be… Read more »
Point 1: I see the point of using thing coats in shading up, but it does appear to me that for his base / primary color coverage, he has has to apply several coats. I certainly see the point of what he is doing with his graded primer / undercoat, but I am not yet totally convinced of the effectiveness. To me it seems to serve as an excellent guide for how light strikes the model, and perhaps it simply does not come across well in the recording process, but it seems to me that you still have to do… Read more »
Dear @cazboab and @ubiquanon, I don’t have a problem for focusing on the job at hand as I paint when my mind is wandering, but I suppose I’ve always had my feet on the ground even when my head is in the clouds… I haven’t got the faintest idea about the Space Marines chapters, but as for the thin coats and the washing of shadows, they’re amply justified… It’s a lot easier to blend colors, It allows you to correct the tone if you’re not satisfied with it, It prevents brush strokes, by criss-crossing the strokes of each coat when… Read more »
