They look great and 99% of us paint to table top level...at different levels. I work to the 3feet rule plus a bit of extra detail for myself. We are here to play games not just paint models and when you're painting 50models...one has to paint sensibly rather than perfectly.

Yeah efficiency is the name of the game when painting huge armies. I learned it the hard way. Painted my first 10 little Tyranids to very high detail (took looong time) then pretty much lost the motivation to do the same for the remaining 100+ bugs.

I’d recommend 15mm ACW but that just me. To me Nappies are a ass kicker. I’ve been working on 4 Russian figures and almost threw them across the room. ACW is second nature to me as I’ve re-enacted and studied it for years. Please keep your videos coming there interesting enjoyable.

great video, if you are going to keep going for a while you should shoot these in 1080p. that way we can see even more detail than in 480p. thanks for letting me see how other people paint these. I start with Grey Seer myself. It cuts down on the amount of grey that I need to paint again.

The issue with 28mm miniatures is stock paint filling in the details. Stock paints are usually "too thick" and essentially wash out the fine details of well sculpted 28 mini's so thinning the paint (prior to application) will often leave a better detailed 28mm mini.
@7thson726
4 жыл бұрын
This is true, there are so many details to see. I see it as a time/numbers situation. While I'd love to paint these and pick out all the nice detail I don't always have the time if I want to use them in games, so I compromise at a level that I think shows off enough to still be satisfying. However, command bases are different, always try to go all out on those 😀👍

Do you have any more tips when it comes to the nuln oil. I watched this video and bought some. Works amazing!! However I've found on some models when it's dry fully the effect sort of fades away?
@7thson726
4 жыл бұрын
That's slightly odd, one thing i do with the GW washes is give them a really good shake as ive noticed sometimes the pigment seperates, that could cause it to be less defined once its dry. Let me know if that helped, I'll keep having a think 👍

I agree to an extent, however the tone of the coat is too light and needs darkening first hence the initial wash. After that, nuln oil or strong tonw works fine. I cant leave thibgs at just a wash as to me they always look more defined with a little highlight 👍 of course theres absolutely nothing wrong with not doing that, this is just the way i do it 😃
