    This year is all about experimentation and new things 😁 And even if you are not into this particular style I suggest you to try the general approach anyway as a pure technical exercise because the amount and depth of information and knowledge you get simply tinkering with the process is something CRAZY 😉 Drop a like to boost the diffusion of the video and enjoy!!!

      I've been a Borderlands fan since the start and love the cell shading look if it's done well enough - which is very well indeed.
      Can't wait to see how far Marco can carry my skill set with this, such a great teacher - I might have a chance, and I've had models picked out for years waiting.
      *Just follow the soothing sound - of my voice...*

    • @KrullMaestaren
      @KrullMaestaren 2 роки тому

      Could you glaze it smooth-er after the exercise? Or is there a better method?
      So a person could practice on minions in the army, then fix them so that the fit the rest. I guess glazing the darker layer onto the brighter one would make sense due to transparency in darker colours 🤔🙃

    One of my favorite reasons for watching your channel is because it makes "normal" mini painting seem so simple suddenly. You're an amazing teacher and each of your videos has this "so easy you can do it!" feel. But, as I turn to my paint bench now I can't help but think, "hah! All I have to do is blend these skin tones flawless but just normally. Easy peasy."
    You absolute mad genius.

  • @the_elder_medium

    I am super interested in this painting style. I think it'll suit my Infinity miniatures perfectly and can't wait to try it!

    • @MarcoFrisoniNJM
      @MarcoFrisoniNJM  2 роки тому +3

      It can work with all kinds of models but it's particularly good on figures with an anime/manga feel like Infinity minis ;)

    • @PrayForTanqueray
      @PrayForTanqueray 2 роки тому +1

      Infinity is ideal for this approach! I myself am using it on a Malifaux limited edition crew I aquired awhile ago as those lend themselves to that style.

    • @waardlafrance110

  • @drewsuph14
    @drewsuph14 2 роки тому +1

    I haven’t been this inspired to get to the table and paint in a long time, I think this perfectly suits what impact I want my minis to have in the table. This works perfectly well with heroic fantasy modes for Dungeons and Dragons.

  • @madhatter1662
    @madhatter1662 2 роки тому

    I can see how this technique can be very useful for layering practice followed by glazing to tie it all together. It would only require smaller jumps in value and maybe one or two more layers to get a smoother gradient. Bravo, keep pumping out bangers.

  • @Xxxxxxxxxx3582
    @Xxxxxxxxxx3582 2 роки тому +1

    A long time ago I painted a 1/35 head using something similar. I used colors such as yellow, black and white. When you took the head a little far from you it looked very well.
    In fact I still keep that head painted in such way.

  • @Burgala

    Watching this really hammered home two very important things for me: Brush control is king, and paint consistency and flow is super super important for laying down smooth lines. Both things I can continue to practice and improve over time. Great video thanks!

    I absolutely love the way the shading worked out on the hat, painting shadows is something I've always been curious about but have no idea how to go about doing it; especially say, shadows on a base, with the miniature perhaps framed by the shadow cast by a window, so you'd have shadow and sunlight, if that makes sense!

    I always wanted to do a repaint of some of those collection figures. Now i have no excuse. Thanks Marco!
    I know this is not the topic of the video, but i wanted to ask you something if you find the time to reply.
    I live in the northwest of Spain, in a city with weather conditions very similar to Dublin, aka high humidity. I often find myself with trouble controlling the dilution of my paints, as they get too watery too soon. I have a homemade wetpallet, and tried different papers, sponges, and paints, but the issue remains. How do you fight the humidity? Do you have a dehumidifier in your studio? Will a storebought pallet with washable sheets help? Or is more likely a skill problem on my end?
    Any tip or experience you can share will be really helpfull.
    Thanks a lot for all your contributions to the hobby. Keep up the good work. Ciao!

    The flag is amazing and really looks 2D (in a good way!). I like how this work is really opaque, simple layers that doesn't rely on blending.
    Anyone interested in cel shading should look at works by Henri Matisse. He's the OG of using black lines as highlights over simple blocks of color. Along with Picasso, he's one of the most well-studied and researched artists of the early 1900s, so finding books/articles on his process is easy.

    @MarcoFrisoniNJM question for you: I have heard so many folks say that when it comes to natural hair brushes (Kolinski's etc) that you should keep paint out of the barrel. In several cuts here you have the paint just up to the ferrule. How are you keeping the paint out in the process. I've lost the tip on a brush that went from that state to the water. Just curious.

    • @MarcoFrisoniNJM
      @MarcoFrisoniNJM  Рік тому

      It depends a bit on the figure itself; if you need to smooth out a few rough patches it's better to have some primer on the surface (I also like the uniform, blank canvas look before start painting), other you can jump directly to acrylics! These will not be touched like a gaming model so it doesn't need any changes crazy strength
