Strip paint from plastic miniature using isopropyl alcohol (my first attempt)
Переглядів 64821 день тому
In this video, I used 99% isopropyl alcohol to strip The Army Painter Speedpaint from plastic miniature. If the paint is fresh, then dish soap and water will do. But here, the paint has settled on the miniature for over a year.

How to prime miniatures with a brush
Переглядів 26 тис.Рік тому
Priming miniatures ensures that paint sticks to the miniature's surface, protects its durability, and evens out textures for an easier painting experience. Most popular primer colors are white, grey, and black. The 1/2 mop brush can be used on any miniature size and the bigger bristles cover more areas faster. After the first coat of paint dries (you can also use hair dryer), I like to apply a ...

Did you find any Easter eggs in this build?
Where can I buy this troll mini? Or what game does it belong to?
The Hill Troll belongs to The Lord of the Rings: Journeys in Middle-earth board game. Thanks for watching!
I would put a grate or something over the drain in case some bits fall off.
I’ve realized that as well. Although the mini was factory assembled, bits can still fall off during vigorous brushing. At least with the grate, I can glue back the pieces. I’ve grown to like this Hill Troll and it would be very unpleasant to lose some bits of him (or bits from any other minis). Thank you for watching!
Alcohol is not hazardous waste. Just pour it down the sink
Agreed, the minimal amount of alcohol can be diluted and poured down. Just playing safe as I’m not sure what else has been poured down in someone else’s sink. Thank you for watching!
I didn't see a dab. Where's the dab? In serious, thanks!
Unfortunately, the cat ate the dab. In serious, I forgot to include the dab in the final edit. Thanks for watching!
Is brush priming preferable to spray priming?
Brush priming is preferable for those who do not have the proper gear or location for spray priming and when priming only a few figures at a time. Otherwise, spray priming is superior to brush priming.
@@CallOfJourneys I tried to spray prime a resin figure but the surface became very grainy/powdery. I don't know why? Can it haopen if you shake the can too little? But I did shake two minutes I think.
@magnusjohansson295 I haven’t used a spray but I found this on Reddit: “I think you may have sprayed a little too far away from the model or maybe the day was a little hot. I think give them a brush or wipe down and just go for it. I have done the same too and just powered through.” You can read the thread here: www.reddit.com/r/ageofsigmar/comments/176sgjy/help_prime_feels_powdery_and_has_powdery_residue/
What about primer that is diluted with water, I have some and should I do the same technique
Depends what your primer is and how thick it is. The one I used in this video doesn’t have to be diluted. Thanks for watching!
I use the same stuff, same color most of the time, mostly because it dries fast and I'm too lazy to go outside. Anyway, I have a real problem with bubbles. Would diluting it with water or a thinner, flow-improver maybe? Would that help? Thanks for your time, Scott.
The primer is already thin so I don’t dilute it. I sometimes apply more coat to bubbly areas that dried up.
Epic! Your videos make me want to buy the game and all expansions!!! Wait, I already have them! :D But want to buy them again...
Haha 😆 Thanks!
Thanks for your video! Was about to record one for friends, but found yours. :)
Great to know! Thank you 😊
Nobody ever talks about brush priming! +1 for emphasizing the "bubble" problem. I personally usually use an airbrush to prime, but I'll pull out the brush if I'm feeling too lazy to clean it. Also, there are just models that have hard-to-reach spots that an airbrush or rattle can has trouble getting to, so there's always a place for brush-on primer. Thanks for the video!
Thank you so much 😊
Great video, I have suscribed to your channel! One question, is it possible to use Gesso as a primer? And do you have a video about using primers?
Thank you! 😊 Although Gesso can be used as I primer, I have absolutely no experience with it. It’s a good idea for a video though.
@@CallOfJourneys Thank you for answering!
Idd do it all the time. Greetings from Belgium
Thank you 😊
Bad thing that this primer peels like banana peel froom flat surfaces
Thanks for watching 😊 and yes on the banana peel.
I have 5 cats so I 100% relate with that Meow :)
Haha 😂 thank you 😊
How do you avoid the primer getting too thick when doing multiple models in one Sitting?
I have two mop brushes and many cheap small brushes. When the primer gets thick on the brush and plate, I wash them and switch to other brushes. On the miniatures, I brush away thick areas and use the brush to absorb excess primer.
I dont know what I am doing wrong. I do it like you and the primer is always bubbly. The "finishes" mini looks like shit... Whats the worst that could happen if I dont prime? I always seal my minis so is there realy a need for priming if its more trouble than good?
I’m a beginner and use primarily Army Painter Speedpaints where light coloured primer is a must for vibrant colors. It’s hard to get rid of every bubbles so I sometimes put additional primer touch ups to even out surfaces with bubbles. I have no experience in painting without priming first.
I was fully ready to go into model painting without priming at all and just deal with the consequences when I thought/was told my only option was to take them outside and get to shaking cans. Thank you for a much more personally feasible alternative
Great to hear! Thank you! 😊
That has reassured me I am doing it right. The Vallejo grey is so thin out the bottle I thought mine might be a bit duff. Given it is an airbrush primer it does make sense though. I use it for speedpaints too and have tried a dark wash before a white drybrush to catch raised edges. Still finding my feet, so thanks for the video 🙂.
Thank You! 😊
Cool 👍
Thank you! 😀
Do you need to water it down? Or is it better to just use it as it is in multiple layers
I use the primer as is in multiple layers. Vallejo primer is thin enough. If it gets thick in some spots, I thin it down by brushing off excess primer.
Ive been using this sooo wrong. Thank you for the video!
Thank you! :)
This was very helpful! Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you! 😀
Nice. Did you prime it by brush also? (I have a motorbike model I need to prime, tried with the brush but I think I will wait for the correct weather for the airbrush ^^)
Thanks! And yes, I primed using a brush. I’m new to this hobby and not ready to use the air brush yet. Perhaps someday :)
enjoyed the video, nice work!
Thanks so much!
Wow! This is superb!! Great job!
Thank you! 😊
Do you use any other brands besides Vallejo? Just curious, Vallejo has many colorful primers im not sure anyone else does
So far, I have only used Vallejo white and grey primers because I’m only painting with The Army Painter Speedpaint which requires a light primer for best results. The Army Painter recommends their matt white rattle can or airbrush primer, but Vallejo white or grey brush on primers work too.
Precise and simple a tutorial! What manufacturer are the miniatures from?
Thank you! The miniatures are from Fantasy Flight Game’s The Lord of the Rings Journeys in Middle Earth. Here’s the complete list: ua-cam.com/video/ILIH_ikgj0U/v-deo.html
Best tutorial. Next time I'll do it your way.
Thank you 😀
