I'm glad you enjoyed, sorry there has been a delay making more! It was much harder to make these than I expected, and I started a new job earlier this year. I've just finally gotten settled in enough I feel I can start working on videos again, so hopefully I can revive this campaign!

Thank you so much for the kind words!

@@ΒασιληςΠαπανικολάου-φ7ω in most cases to get quality like this, you're going to need a resin printer. I've used both Elegoo and Anycubic printers with good success. A lot of them are pretty similar in build quality and how they function, I think the main thing you're paying for is size of the printer and resolution. Unfortunately, none of the resin printers are necessarily easy to use for someone new to 3D printing. There are a lot of safety issues to consider as well. The resins used are toxic, and you have to take precautions handling them. Some people are also extremely sensitive to both the resin and the fumes it puts off. It's never good to breathe the fumes, you want it to be in a well ventilated area, wear gloves any time you are working with it, and try to never get it on your skin. Some people develop rashes immediately, others can tolerate minor skin contact a few times before having problems, but again, it's toxic and you really don't want it on your skin. I would highly suggest watching some 3D printing UA-cam channels, especially ones that focus on resin printers and look into safely using them!

@@ANGELandGHOSTS I've always ruled it as 100 because the 0 on the tens die is a 10, and 00 on the other is as high (or low) as you can go. If I had rolled a 1 on the ten and a 00 on the other, I would have ruled that as a 01. It may be wrong, but that's how I've always used a d100

You're very welcome! Happy painting!

Lol very true! I never considered that actually!

Oh good to know! I probably should state here if I don't anywhere else, I play several different miniature games and sometimes mix up rules! But that's definitely a rule I'll try to keep in mind for the future, especially for when I get back to making videos for this campaign!

Ha! I had to go back and watch because it has been so long since I first did this! That moment completely dumbfounded me! What are the odds? Haha!

Hey! You're right! I should have at least done a quick little intro for them, but yes, Episode 0 was a full follow-along of me making the entire crew and explaining some things! Welcome to the channel!

Thank you! It's one of those things that many new painters don't think about at first!

@@ShinisTabletopAdventures I’m going to start to use it on my figures. In fact I delayed washing because I didnt want them to look dull.

@@guysmith6039 Another tip to help with that as well, is don't wash the whole figure! I doused these guys for the video, and that's how a lot of beginners do it at first. It isn't wrong per se, just inefficient. A better way to do it is to only place the wash in the areas you actually want darkened. Try to only get it in the folds, grooves, recesses, etc. This way you won't have to come back and do as much highlighting, or you can push your highlights even farther for even more contrast! Hope that helps some! Happy painting!

@@Off_White247 ooh I love that! That's a great trick, thanks for sharing! I'll need to pick up some Lahmium Medium then!

@@ShinisTabletopAdventures I personally use a mix of apothicary white, spave wolves grey and Lahmium medium with this technique to shade white armor on things like my apothecaries. If I'm trying to do a shadowed area instead of just recess shading, I lower the amount of Lahmium or swap it for contrast, and dont pre treat the area, then work from the outer edge of the shadow into the recesses, so it slightly stains the surface, but still pools in the recesses. With a liiiittle medium tinkering, contrast and speed paints essentially give you easy access to almost limitless wash colours, it's just a mater of controlling the level of surface staining

@@Off_White247 I like that a lot, this is all really helpful information for everyone. Again, thanks so much for sharing!

If it makes you feel any better, I didn't think of it for years! It only occurred to me later that I could add even more contrast to my mini this way, which really helps the details POP!

Thanks man! Glad to be back. Having a baby and getting a new job really threw off my groove for a while there! I'm trying my best to get back into it!

Obi-Wan is on my list lol. I haven't painted him or Anakin yet!

Thanks man! I really appreciate it!

Thanks so much! These are 3D printed from a set called "District 0012" I believe. I got them through a seller on My Mini Factory several years back. They are really easy to print, very modular, and don't require any supports at all!

I understand the demotivation! I've been shrinking my space to make more room for my wife's computer/office space since she used to use the spare bedroom. I don't think having a "pile of potential" is a bad thing at all, as long as it doesn't get too out of control. Most of my models are at least built so I can play with them, but a lot is unpainted. It takes me a lot longer to paint something than it does to build it! I also understand jumping between projects! I like to build and paint minis from all sorts of different games!

Sorry, the full video covered that a bit better. The first step for me was to prime with grey, then spray black for the second step. But if I had a black primer (which I do now) I could combine those steps.

I have unfortunately had to put them on the backburner for a bit. We had a baby in January, then I started a new job in April, and I've been struggling to keep up with everything. So UA-cam in general got set aside for a bit. I'm trying to work on more videos, but it's been slow going. Sorry about that!

@@ShinisTabletopAdventures congrats on both counts. Glad you didn't disappear. Look forward to when you get time to do another.

@@r0llntider thank you! I hadn't planned on being absent nearly this long, but it's been difficult to find the time to work on videos. I also need to rearrange the basement a bit so I'll have a better recording area. At the very least more mini painting videos will be coming very soon!

@@miqdadt8945 hello! All of the paints I used in this video were from the first Army Painter Speed Paints Starter Set, before they redeveloped them and made their Speed Paints 2.0 line. I hope that helps!

It's probably possible, but I have no experience doing anything like that. While you would have a lot more color options in theory, I'm not sure if it's worth it. I very rarely need a wash that isn't a shade of black or brown, and when I do I usually thin down some Speed Paint or Contrast Paints that I already have.

If you've already painted it metallic gold, I think I would use a similar method to what I've done in this video. Take some Strong Tone Wash, or maybe Agrax Earthshade if you prefer Citadel Paints. Those colors tend to do pretty good as a wash for gold metallics specifically! You can probably wash pretty much the entire statue to really make the details pop, and make sure to not let it pool too much on raised areas or large smooth surfaces. You can dab your brush on a paper towel or something to dry it out a bit, then dab it on the pooled areas to soak some of it back up. Lastly, I would go back over it with either the same gold or an even brighter gold to add some highlights to the most raised edges. This combined with the wash will add some really nice contrast and help the statue look better than just flat gold. I hope this helps!

@@castrodaniel58 that is a great question! So primer isn't required in most cases, but it can still help a lot and I highly recommend it! It'll help your paints adhere better, and if you handle your minis a lot for tabletop games, it'll help the paint from rubbing off as easy. Though you can also use a varnish to help protect them instead! There are brush on primers that work decently well if you live in an area where spray cans aren't feasible. I hope that helps! Thanks for commenting!

Thank you so much for the kind words! I do have plans to continue, I sadly have not been able to work on videos as much as I would like the past couple of months since starting my new job. I am hoping I can get back into content creation very soon though! I really want to continue this campaign, as well as try out some other solo tabletop games! Thanks for the comment!

That's a great tip too! I hadn't thought to thin them down at all! Thanks for commenting!

Thank you so much for the kind words! It's tough sometimes to open up like that, this was definitely the hardest video I've ever had to make by far.

That's a great addition! Sometimes you just want to paint something!

I'm glad the video resonated! Keeping that small tote bag is a great idea! I sometimes bring a little carrying case with just a few models, some paints, brushes, small wet palette, etc. I do think with what you're currently bringing, you might really like what Frontier Wargaming offers! I'm not sponsored or anything, I just think it's a neat product and I've been wanting to save up and get one myself. I probably should put a link in the description now that I think about it lol. That case has an optional add on for an LED light bar too. Not sure how good it is, but might be worth a try. Lastly, I totally agree on sometimes just assembling some models is worth our time. I may not feel like getting my stuff out to paint, maybe I'm not in the mood. Clipping out some bits and flying them together though? I can do that almost any time.

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!

@@ShinisTabletopAdventures I learn something new with every video I watch 😃😃😃

@@killingtonsnowboarde I'm glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!

Drybrushing is great! I wanted to try to keep the focus on just the wash in this video, but I probably should have at least mentioned drybrushing, or hinted there would be a future video about it!

Sorry for your rough times recently! Sounds like your new place is going to have a nice hobby space for you to relax and have fun in! I'd love to see it when you get it ready!

@@ShinisTabletopAdventures I will post it on Instagram when done. Cant wait myself.

Thanks Pop! Nothing too crazy, but some things we don't always think about.

@@ShinisTabletopAdventures don‘t undersell yourself. I really enjoyed your thoughts and together with the b roll .. total vibe :)

@@pop-if2kx I appreciate that! This is definitely the style of video I enjoy making I think, though obviously I'd rather have more painting as my B-roll haha!

Work, study, wife, work, study wife....

Thanks so much! Glad you liked it!

I haven't tried inks for that myself, but I've heard it's really good! Inks are usually very saturated and thin, so it makes sense! Thanks for sharing!

Lol that's fair!

That's true! I do cover that a bit more in the full video.

You're very welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Welcome to the hobby! Some advice to start: Don't go buy a bunch of big paint sets. Also don't buy a whole ton of miniatures. It's really easy to get overwhelmed by it all, especially at first! Start small with a starter set for painting, and then just one or a handful of minis. Paint them and have fun! They probably won't be perfect, but that's okay! You painted them and had fun!

Ah good! I forget sometimes since it can be several hours, days, and sometimes weeks in between my pre-game, the battle, and post game sessions. I don't always have a lot of time to play or record, so I do it in sections when I can. Thanks for watching!

Good news then, because she does get painted after this haha!

@@ShinisTabletopAdventures can't wait till the next adventure

@@r0llntider me either! Hopefully I can get it recorded soon!

That’s just wrong tho??? You use water and a wet pallet

@@datb0013 doesn't have to be a wet palette! But sure makes it easier! In the full video I show this by just using a plastic lid.

@@ShinisTabletopAdventures honestly though i really don't see an advantage to no wet pallate, i made mine out of literal garbage (fast food container, wet paper towels, parchment) for the options it gives you it's kinda unbeatable

@@datb0013 no I completely agree! I use one pretty much all the time! I love it! I just wanted to show a brand new painter that they didn't necessarily need to go buy a new tool or DIY their own. It's not a required item, just a really useful one!
