Absolutely amazing guide, we believe this is your next how to thin your paints, this is an amazing guide, no non-sense, no time wasting, very practical, shows how it is done then you show the theory behind it, why there is problems how to solve them. It is everything anyone could want in a guide and more. We gave it a shout out just after watching it because this is amazing. We know the level of work that goes into these things, and though Brushtroke maybe humble, we will shout him out, he did an amazing level of work to make this guide for you guys. Well done and I hope this video gets the love it deserves! Keep those brushes slightly damp, not too damn enough so you can brush it on smoothly even when drybrushing 😉 So smooth 🍑 smooth

Thanks for showing/explaining to us when AND HOW OFTEN to dampen our brushes. I always assumed the dampening sponges were just for "reactivating" the remaining paint visible on the brush without having to get more from my palette, and it never ended well. I also didn't know I should dampen before getting paint, so I will be trying that out soon with my Minotaur dry brushes.

I've seen dozens of videos about drybrushing. This is by far the best tutorial. I really need to make a drypalette to check the amount of paint on brush before applying it to the mini

Thank you I was worried people would just think “oh, another brush video. Big deal.” So it’s good to hear you thought it different to others you’ve watched. As for the texture board, yes. Get one, it’s so helpful to know you won’t ruin the mini with that first stroke. As for making one, go for it! And in case you just never get round to it, you can always just buy one 😉

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides
4 күн бұрын
OK, there's two answers to that The first is, a quick clean can be achieved by simply brushing against your texture board. Just brushing like that actually removes 99% of the paint and is the method Artis Opus promotes. For deeper cleaning, which is my preferred method, I use brush soap and the process I use is detailed in this video kzitem.info/news/bejne/xJ54rpWOoWqanqQ Hope it helps

The mistake I see a lot of people make is to use one or two shades only. This results in the bristles leaving streaks, even on a properly dried brush. If you want expert level dry brush, use several shades. I use up to 5 on figures and miniatures. As each coat gets lighter, and you dry brush a little less. If you do it right, it looks fantastic. If you do it wrong, it looks crappy and rushed. Done properly you will never see a brush stroke, or streak.

That Eldar Flesh Dry paint you have is crazy. I've got (and use to good effect) Ryza Rust Dry and it is nothing like that, it's more like a thick heavy body acrylic rather than the almost-powder you've got there.
@BrushstrokePaintingGuides
2 күн бұрын
Ah now, Ryza Rust is an interesting one. So, when it was first released it was labelled as a Technical paint and has only recently been labelled as a Dry paint. As such, I do forget it's now classed as a dry paint. I will concede that it is the exception to the rule and actually very good for rust effects. You wouldn't, however, want to be trying to use it to highlight edges orange. So, good effect paint, poor drybrushing paint?

10:14 The variation in paint application through the stroke from a flat brush also changes depending on how you sweep the brush over the surface; your example shows sweeping the brush edge-on across the surface, where using it flat-on would increase the variation -- there's less chance for the bristles to contact the surface at the ends of the sweep when swept flat -- but the side-to-side area covered is wider.
@BrushstrokePaintingGuides
3 күн бұрын
Yes, absolutely. You’re spot on. As I said in the video, the illustration was very simplified but intended to make people consider how the brush contacts the surface will make a difference. When choosing between the flat and rounded brushes I did say that they can both achieve the same results but with the flat you need to be more aware of your strokes and contact. Because the curved brush is curved in all directions it makes it more fool proof, as it will behave the same no matter how you hold it. Thanks for commenting 🙂

@BrushstrokePaintingGuides

that's a very good question and something I have myself tried when I realised how poor they were. And, no, I've never been able to convert one back to a "normal" paint. The chemistry of them just doesnt seem to be the same. I've been told AK might make dry paints which actually work as intended. So I'm going to give them a go. But I think I'll stick with my view in the video, just buy paints which can be used for many things and give yourself options thanks for checking out my channel

Don't bother with special hobby "drybrushes". Just go to your local dollar store/poundland and get small makeup brushes. They work better and cost 1/20th the price. AO are a way overpriced rip off. You can get the EXACT same brush from Rosemary & Co. for less than 1/2 the price.
