    Quick tip for GW push fit models. Trim a bit of the "post" off of each connection to make it slightly more narrow when it fits into the socket. This allows the parts to still fit together perfectly but also allows room for glue.

    "We were able to pick up (Dark Uprising)." Lucky sods.
    That GW's legendary pricing returned, in it's full, terrifying splendour, just in time for a much anticipated boxset made me laugh way more than it should, considering we all saw it coming. It's just, I don't anybody expected the box to be quite so much- it's like Gw's trying to make up for their last few boxes costing what they did.

    • @MidwinterMinis
      @MidwinterMinis  4 роки тому +6

      I sort of thought that when I saw the price for the box set, but when I unpacked it, I realised what a downright HUGE amount of stuff there is in there. I also bought from a FLGS, so got a slightly better price than RRP, which helps :)

    • @Fagerlund_

  • @Walican132
    @Walican132 4 роки тому +1

    I notice when you mix paint in the pallet shots you didn’t always use the brush you were painting g with (especially during the layer stage) any reason for that? I started assembling my first real models today, hopefully by New Years I’ll have 900 pts of necrons ready to go!

    • @MidwinterMinis
      @MidwinterMinis  4 роки тому

      Well spotted! Yeah, I tend not to mix paint with smaller brushes because it's easier to get the paint in the ferrule - the metal bit that holds the bristles in place. When paint dries up there, it starts to change the shape of the brush and bristles start firing off at random angles.

      I did, for better or worse. I thought that most of the viewers would have probably done the same, so didn't want to force people to do things in sub-assemblies.

      This is going to sound silly for a speed paint video, but... paint faster! :) Each colour stage usually takes me about 10/15 minutes when I'm batch painting like this. Go fast, don't worry about paint drying on the palette :)

    Awesome as always, my favorite youtube channel! How did you you like the new brushes? Do you think maybe you might do a video on eyes/faces? Keying in on them and doing a bit more close up on doing various faces / colors / washes and the thoughts and theories behind those choices at some point.. it's such a weakness of mine... ( though I am just starting out), it's the most intimidating part for me. I've watched other vids but the presenters just go on and on and end up making little sense 30 minutes later lol. You have a gift for teaching yet keeping it clear and simple. Always looking forward to more from you and Penny. =)

    • @MidwinterMinis
      @MidwinterMinis  4 роки тому +1

      Thank you! First off, I thought the brushes were pretty good, but then again nearly all brushes are good at the start, it's how they handle being used over and over again that matters. I'll probably be able to let you know better in the future! Also, I might do an episode of easy faces, good idea :)

    When you're basecoating, do you have any tips for keeping the colours for different areas apart? I was doing some DA veterans, and kept having the bone and green touching one another, and making the edges look incredibly messy. Tried to fix it after, but ended up making it look worse.

    New to painting minis When you paint on stuff like the skin during the base coats is it all just one coat of the color or are you letting it dry then putting more of that color on?

    • @MidwinterMinis
      @MidwinterMinis  4 роки тому +1

      It's mostly one coat, unless I really feel the need to add a little more. The good thing about adding a wash is that it balances out the tone, and then you also add highlights, so it doesn't need to be a perfect 100% coverage, even basecoat :)

    That's a great look for the cultists, and a pretty fun approach to mixing the colours. I'm a bit irked by the flame/hair-less models, in that they don't really have a big, sexy bit to add a contrasting colour to. What would you think was a good bit to splash with some colour?

    Another good one. I can't bring myself to speed paint like this...I mean I can, but I have a problem. I put too much work into each of my models and don't get stuff done! Your channel is perfect for this...paint...get stuff done...play. I think your blue hair looks boss on these plus the licks of green spooky or chemically flame is a great standout choice as well. For speed painting, this is the place to be :)

    • @MidwinterMinis

    Absolutely perfect as always mate! This may seem like a strange way to go, but I'm going to use this tutorial for my Drukhari kill team, namely my Haemonculi Coven stuff! Aside from using a paler skin tone for the typical Drukhari look more or less (ideas on what to use in order to tie that into the technique?), I'm gonna follow it exactly. I think the Wracks and Grotesques and Incubi and Mandrakes I'm working on are going to look incredible using this method! Thank you so much as always!

    Did you thin the push-fit pegs with a file before assembly, or, chopped the pegs off entirely? I find that this makes assembly a whole lot easier.
    That method of mixing all the paints together gives a great effect.

    Is it possible to completely strip a model of its paint if you want to make a huge change of color scheme?

    • @1crlski
      @1crlski 4 роки тому

      It depends on the paint and how thick you have it on, I'm in the US so I soak the minis I want to strip overnight in alcohol to get the east stuff with a stiff tooth brush then I let them soak in simple green for a few days to get the rest with the stiff brush, then the last step is under a magnifying lens (old eyes ...lol) I use a fine point xacto blade to get the paint in the crevices....this works for me with GW, Vallejo and Reaper paints

I also tried the one base tone with different additional colours and was very happy with the result. I can say that I will now paint all my figures in this manner. Thank you very much, and hope you and Penny are safe. Look forward to hearing from you soon.
