    These are the most relaxing painting videos on youtube, like guided meditation

    Another one?? Your blending tutorials are probably the best around youtube! :D
    THe yellow paint in the black plastic card is a reaaaally good way of showing us how to do it!
    However, the part of you applying the yellow on the miniature was veeeery difficult to see on the video. The transitions are not really clear, probably because it is such a bright color. Unfortunate.
    But I'll be coming back to this video and definitely getting some plastic card to practice technique on!
    Thank you Master!

    I think you are my favorite mini painter. Your style is clearly influenced by Frazetta and sword and sorcery. It's gorgeous. Thank you.

      I'm honored, thank you! That era of art and in particular, Frazetta, found me at an early age.

    Great video, all theses tips are so much easier to take in than others who throw everything at you, thanks for sharing. Can't wait for the next one.

    I have a really great blending technique. It involves a Cuisinart, some ice, lime juice, Angostura bitters, and tequila

    I do not normally leave comments but I felt I had to say how helpful this video was. The camera angle and your description and teaching style was the most effective I've ever seen on UA-cam. Thank you for this video it has helped me with motivation issues I've had with my painting

    Only the boldest painters will add their Skeleton Bone to a leathery butt, but you pulled it off without a hitch!
    In all seriousness though, awesome video. I loved the plasticard demo!

    Great explanation. I also like that you show that you don't necessarily need to use a tiny brush. I think people make painting harder on themselves because they use too small of a brush.

    super video, but the title took al my attention because of the inverted "U" and "Q" of "TECHNIQUES" 😂

    Sam, love your videos! I’ve been painting for about 8 years. I’m really hit and miss on selling the nmn effect on curved surfaces….like a scythe or an axe or large armor pieces. I think my light placement is off or the distribution isn’t right. Can you do a deep dive on this subject?
    My blends are good and I have the contrast there. I even do pretty good edge highlights and I distribute small volumes of dents with edge highlights to help with mind confusion. The effect just isn’t there.
    I can do swords and straight surfaces pretty convincingly….but curves are a pain. Please help.

      Check out out my video, Advanced NMM for some insight. It's built on observation and listening to what the light is telling you. Cheers!

    Your blending videos inspired my first forays into actually creative techniques beyond just color inside lines and citadel shade and drybrush. Thanks for continuing to inspire pushing our artistic development through the years.
