I worked on a mini for quite some time and I was really, really disappointend and sad about the result. I was by chance watching this video and thought "its messed up anyways so lets try this fancy NMM thing on the unpainted axe before I quit". And man the result was really great! I even found motivation to repaint some messy parts of the mini and it became my most favorite one ever :) This video really changed my hobby experience from disappointing to superb! Now I am looking forward to my next paintjob :)

Amazing yet simple guide. I liked the thing about triangles, makes sense. It would be very helpful if you could do a video about various shapes and angles of light for NMM and just quickly block out where shadows and highlights would fall in various situations. For example large flat surfaces perpendicular to the sky like Exalted Deathbringer mini (ruinous axe) was tricky to make it work for me and i had to scrape off and redo the whole axe like 3 or 4 times to get a decent result that sells the effect.

Hey Vince, so I actually have a few random questions on NMM. The first is how to show weathering on NMM (mainly rusting), secondly, how do you do NMM on small metallic parts, like chainsword teeth or belt buckles. I would guess you'd just have like a dot of white and the rest being black since you don't have a lot of room to make a transition. Finally, how would you mix OSL with NMM, specifically OSL from a nontopdown light source. I guess all of these kind of follow the theme of using NMM in conjunction with other painting techniques, and I feel that most videos on these topics only show one concept in isolation, rather than combining them.
@VinceVenturella
3 жыл бұрын
Each of these could be videos on their own. Juan Hidalgo just published a video on weathered NMM, but the key is to put browns and rust in the shadows (as those places aren't reflecting). On small areas, it really depends, but generally, it gets sold through the edge highlight and a light line striking through it. FOr OSL, the answer is the OSL is the light, when you are painting the lighter parts of the reflections, you are painting the ambient light. So if you have OSL, you need to capture that in the light in the color of the OSL. Hope that all helps.
