I would love to see you tackle a black vehicle using neutral grays instead of blue grays for highlights. Am really struggling on large surfaces on my Raven Guard gunships! Super interesting video, keep up the good work!
It was a pleasure meeting you at Adepticon! Thanks for the Beast of Nurgle tutorial. I've learned a lot from that and watching your videos. Keep up the great work!!!
In my opinion this looks better than most of airbrushed vehicles that I've seen. They often look like the paint was just randomly darker/brighter in some places.
Thanks, dude, I think there's definitely something to be said for the fact that it *isn't* quite as fast/easy as the airbrush, you have to/can think while you go, there's something to be said for that.
Would love to see blood angels next, please!!! Although, seeing this tank to completion would be wonderful as well. Perhaps with some weathering and rust techniques. Can't wait to see what inspires you next. Love the video, and your content.
Thanks dude, for us(me) I would love to do more complete minis, but unless they are effecient (GUO) it takes about 5-10x longer in total than some other videos. Maybe if I did a rhino in an efficient way that'd work out not too slow, it's bits like undercoating and basecoating all the metallics etc that mount up.
@@ArtisOpus that had not occurred to me, but I completely understand. Again, your work is amazing and you explain things in a way I can attempt to replicate. Bravo. In that case, my vote remains with blood angels 😂😂😊
I am going to be trying my first tank like vehicle and im hella nervous about it, this has made me feel so much better. I can't wait to give these techniques a shot!
Great video! Would you please show weathering (rust, mud, dust and /or grime) in your next video? Please also paint for Dark Angels, since it’s next to impossible to find good weathering tutorials for dark green.
Excellent. I got a set of series D for my birthday recently, been busy so not used, and I've got a rhino in the box opened and put back a few months ago. Pretty fortuitous as it turns out
Man... Your dry brush work is inspirational. One of these days I'm going to have the confidence to put down the airbrush and pick up my dry brushes and follow along. Would love to see you do a Grey Knights APC with metallics. Your dry brushed GK Dreadknight was transcendent. That video was where I learned that awesome technique where you Speedpaint over top of metallic.
This was very informative I love how you showed the whole process and talked your way though each of the steps I've just ordered some of these brushes and can't wait to give them a go. I'd love to see how you tackle colours like Deathwing bone or custodes gold on large vehicle models without looking flat
@@ArtisOpus One thing I think people get a bit "wrong" (I know it's personal taste) is they go too hard on the ruined aesthetic and do everything as rust with a wash to dirty it all down even more. Dystopia cyberpunk with lots of industrial elements could be a good style for your techniques - lots of varied shades of concretes and metals, lots of light effects and lots of weathering/industrial pollution staining. You can really tell a story with the right paint job.
@@SweenyMarc good points, it's always about finding your own way... I think I just have done this 'too much' when trying before, I need to commit to the aesthetic, and methods, before I can customise
I'm looking forward to try applying these techniques while painting Gundam model kits. I've been looking for a way to recreate color transitions in a simple manner. You make it look so easy.
Awesome dry brushing tips and tricks! Would love to see you do more vehicles like eldar vehicles using dry brushing techniques in black or whatever color!
You make it look so effortless and smooth 😯 For the next bit you could complete this Rhino with weathering, battle damage and some OSL on the headlights? Then it is all included :D
Would love to see some 'filters', the theory and practical applications such as coloured metallics like red and green. I know in the past you have added yellow over silver to give a gold effect. .
What an awesome result. I think it would be interesting to see some mud details down near the tracks. A mix of old dried mud and fresher splashes. Be cool to see what your takes on these would be
I enjoy watching your tutorials. On this one I would love to see now battle damage coming in and as David Stephens already mentioned, wheatering and all the dirt.
I am starting a knight army soon and not owning an airbrush I was a bit worried on how to approach the panels. Definitely going to give this a try, I think it will look really good on a chaos knight where everything does not need to look perfect and clean!
I've been watching since your channel started, and everytime you ask for recommendations I say the same thing: I want to see you do a massive project all the way through (kind of like you did with dragons) except I really want to see Archaon, belakor, lord of change and blood thirster. the range of complex textures, effects, armors, and colors seem like a truly unique opportunity
It is a great idea man, just takes so much time all in that it would have to be a personal project of mine, hard to justify it otherwise as it could be enough time for 10 other vids! I would genuinely love to though. Especially bloodthirster!
Itll be ok as long as it looks just remotely like what you did here! Ive watched several vids to get some inspiration, but this style looks absolutely gorgeous
Great video, as always. I'll definitely be referring to this, as there are a couple of tanks on my horizon, for a pal of mine. It would be awesome to see how you bring that DB magic to camo-patterns on vehicles.
I would love to see the weathering and chipping done on this. I’m using this tutorial to help me paint up a Munitorum Armoured Container so it should have a little bit of weathering/chipping/rust on it.
Not sure if anyone else requested it, but I'd love to see if you have any tips on doing a simple camo pattern on a tank. Something like the two tone green/tan on the Leman Russ box art.
@@ArtisOpus Go big or go home I say! I can see your dry brushing techniques working beautifully on a Ma.K kit (about 4/5 times the height of a Warhammer mini.. the length of that tank side would be close to the height). Check my channel out!!
Looks great Byron. I got 3 Sisters of Battle tanks queing up to be painted by hand as Order of Our Martyred Lady (the Black armour) and definitely have the confidence to think i can do them this way even if the colours are different to the Ultramarine blue scheme. Good timing!
@@ArtisOpus that would be awesome! I liked your Black Templars video on it but I'm one of those people that relies on the visual so I'd have to see how effective it would be on Black Legion lol
@@ArtisOpus would love to see it! Just got my drybrush set after absolutely butchering my hammerhead with traditional brushing and loads of texture, so would be amazing to see how it's properly done
@@ArtisOpus I not eats furniture, I just cheeky and bites my dad when I play wiv him, sometimes I annoys him if I want go walks too, but I always hood boy except when I a naughty! 😉🥰🐶
Nice work as always Byron! Wouldn't mind seeing the complete Rhino done. Also, would be interesting to see "weaker" colours used, like orange, yellow etc, on a complete vehicle. Oh, and nice music, just maybe turn it down a notch.
Weather would be great! But as for other chapters or factions, full video would be great but even just a rundown of the paints you'd select would be great
OMG ! 😍 This technique is amazing for large surfaces. Could you show this technique on other large models ? I mean Kharadron Overlords Arkanaut Ironclad or Arkanaut Frigate. Great channel with great tips and tricks ❤️
Ordered sets of your brushes and just found a Predator tank I've had in pieces for....a long time. IF I can figure out WTF I did with the turret, will be trying this. And yeah, my army is Ultramarines, because I had no imagination at the time. lol Have a bunch of Blood Angels in Corvus armor I need to repaint, too.
Can you drybrush metallics, like a fully drybrushed tank say in copper, silver or gold, i use vallejo acrylic metal colour airbrush colors, that would be great to see if its even possible
While the VMC are indeed amazing paints, it's not something i'd go for when drybrushing simply because they're so watery/thin. As Byron already said below though, for "normal" metallics they got you covered.
Awesome video, need to get a rhino ordered for a small diorama I’d like to do using this paint method. I’d like to see how decals could be applied while blending in/the bright white not sticking out too much? Also some weathering
Great video thank you:) Have you considered venturing into more of the scale modeling paint schemes like WW 2 German ambush camo ? We are playing Dust 1947 and use historical elements along with weathering for our models.
Can this be trasfered to smaller models? Obviously drybrushing can, but I love the transition you got. Would there my any different approaches to it at all?
Just smaller brushes and a bit more care, really. It is very important to start from a smooth Basecoat, you can apply it thinned as we did here, or any other way you like :)
Hi, when trying to achieve a darker base coat, rather than mixing with huldra or leviadron blue, could you achieve a similar result mixing with kantor blue? Thanks
Amazing results, and I was already inspired by the space wolfs ship you made on the previous video, I would like to try a white colour scheme but I am struggling with the list of colours to make a nice contrast, any advice? Thanks for your videos!!!
It is a wonderful video thank you. I would like to know if these technique should work for a black tank? And if so which maybe what other points of attention?
You can actually paint them reverses, spray gold, drybrush silver, wash, then block in the panels, but unfortunately they're just fairly faffy models :| look amazing when done, though!
This looks fantastic, Just one question for you folks would you recommend something like this for a Pre-heresy Iron Hands army. I'm looking at painting them in a dark metallic black armor. So the thought I was having was to use this technique to create a metallic base which then can sponge on a contrast like black templar.
Metallics are even easier if anything, dude :). Check out our metallic tutorials and pick your favourite (the imperial knight armiger is probably perfect!)
This might be a dumb question (I am a newbie) but when drybrushing, you do not need to thin your paints? This is both for the stippling and for traditional drybrushing, correct? Why is that?
Byron, your videos are amazing, and I’m loving the Artis Opus brushes. Question: how do you clean the paint off of a Series D brushes mid-session after stippling a base coat onto the mini?
Hey man, this was really great !! Say, do you think you could do something similar with the custodes big vehicles like the calladius or the telemon? I must say I'm not too sure how to do them (Maybe a drybrush of gehennas gold after having shaded a retributor armor priming with some reikland fleshshade.
I'd love to see the method applied to some other common transports or vehicles. I like the necron scythe tutorial, be interested to see some Ork buggies/trukks or tau Also love to see some weathering etc
Do you think i could replace the blues in this video with green? I'm prepping to paint a rhino for my first army, Salamanders, and i'm lookin for a good way to paint a vehicle quickly and easily
Ooo. Well that's an excuse for something megaaa bright, which you know I love, consider me tempted! Also looks insane weathered, mud on lime green... 🥰
Hey dude, it is our dampening pad, an important part of our technique, and we achieve such smooth results. Check out our flawless blends, and complete guide to drybrushing videos.
@@ArtisOpus thanks mate will definitely do! I love your content so far! I'm going to use these techniques at my 3 flecuent gnarlmaws and if it's works then I will try it at my chaos gargant.
Newbie here. Love your content. I am trying to replicate this on my rhino and it isn’t coming out right. There is a ton of texture and the blends are just not smooth. Am I using too much paint? Not enough moisture? Do I need to be more patient between coats?
Hey dude, thanks :). Which size D are you using bud, and how many drops in the dampening pad? Let us know in another comment (not a reply, they get lost)
I tried this technique and it gave a very rough texture that doesn't match the smooth paint I already have down. Is there any way of avoiding this or something that I did wrong?
Hey dude, check out our complete guide to drybrushing, and flawless blends video, both cover the dampening pad (which introduces moisture) really comprehensively :)
@@ArtisOpus I never got the chance to respond back due to some real life stuff taking my attention for a long while, but thank you very much!! I am intending to give this a proper shake when everything settles down.
Man I use and love your techniques and brushes but living here in Arizona it is so DAMN dry here I can't get away with plopping paint on the texture palette its dry within probably a few minutes, I have taken to using my wet palette but it's a bit tricky trying to moosh it blends around. Great stuff as always!
I have heard how extreme your last year or two have been, dude. Jason from Pro Acryl told me of the horror stories! It's a good idea, you can always put it out there, and scoop to dry source. Have you tried a humidifier in your painting area? It's not always temp, but humidity, they're about 30bucks, and you just top them up with water, charge from usb generally, plus good for your body.
@@ArtisOpus honestly I've considered the humidfier and as of this moment its getting added to the cart haha. Its plenty cool in my house, so its 100% humidity (lack of) that's my issue. Thanks!
I was really hoping to catch this as a live stream but my time zone makes it to late but I really want to ask how you would use this kind a technique with metallic silver? I have GK and any time I try this the silver seems to cover too well and I don’t get the fades and transitions? Love the channel and brushes
It's our dampening-pad, dude :). Not a worry! It's used to introduce a small and predictable amount of moisture to the painting process before, during, and after, it's how we manage to keep things so smooth. ua-cam.com/video/kxuY2NXeI2M/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/MnUWwq3Qtco/v-deo.html These should help!

Yes
Thanks so much, dude! We I'll definitely be dirtying up this vehicle for sure.
This would be great
and perhaps see it all glued up ready for some clown with a lascannon to shoot at it
I have no intention of painting Ultramarines or a Rhino, but this is simply enjoyable to watch. Quality content.
😘 thanks, dude! Much appreciated ☺️
I would love to see you tackle a black vehicle using neutral grays instead of blue grays for highlights. Am really struggling on large surfaces on my Raven Guard gunships! Super interesting video, keep up the good work!
Would work nicely for Ravenwing company too 👍
Interesting idea, and a valid point. I always lean toward blue, I like this suggestion a lot!
That would be a super useful tutorial!
Black Templar Rhino would be great
It was a pleasure meeting you at Adepticon! Thanks for the Beast of Nurgle tutorial. I've learned a lot from that and watching your videos. Keep up the great work!!!
You too, dude, I had a great time in every demo! Hope it helps your painting 🎨
Near the end of this video I noticed this was by artists opus 😂
The brushes are great not gonna lie… keep up the good work 👍
The fact you included the part where you reflect upon the last step and learnt from it are nice to see
In my opinion this looks better than most of airbrushed vehicles that I've seen. They often look like the paint was just randomly darker/brighter in some places.

Weathering will 100% happen! And Dark Angels is a great idea!
Your videos are awesome to watch! Love them. Looking forward to seeing the finished rhino.
It's not getting finished! Poor thing is going to end up as two side panels, a front, and some doors, for future tutorials 😅
@@ArtisOpus hahaha, classic~
Excellent. I got a set of series D for my birthday recently, been busy so not used, and I've got a rhino in the box opened and put back a few months ago. Pretty fortuitous as it turns out

Another excellent video Byron. Your dry brushing is amazing. Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks, dude! 🤘
Awesome dry brushing tips and tricks! Would love to see you do more vehicles like eldar vehicles using dry brushing techniques in black or whatever color!
We're definitely due some more armour after all the tyranid stuff recently, and I love the eldar, and Necrons, we'll see what we can do!
@ArtisOpus Thanks! Looking forward to seeing it. I think it will be a hit with the 10th edition eldar so popular!
You make it look so effortless and smooth 😯 For the next bit you could complete this Rhino with weathering, battle damage and some OSL on the headlights? Then it is all included :D
Yessir. Although it doesn't have lights unfortunately, as it is only the side!
Would love to see some 'filters', the theory and practical applications such as coloured metallics like red and green. I know in the past you have added yellow over silver to give a gold effect. .
Great idea, with or without airbrush use for the filter?
@@ArtisOpus personally for me, without. Can't really justify an airbrush. 😁. Also, just received my Navigators Drybrush edition.
Would love to see more on weathering!
It's gonna happen!
Whatever you choose to inspire me with next i will gladly watch it asap!
Thanks, my dude 🥰
What an awesome result. I think it would be interesting to see some mud details down near the tracks. A mix of old dried mud and fresher splashes. Be cool to see what your takes on these would be
I am fairly certain this is going to happen!
Would love to see weathering but I’d also love to see you do an Imperial Fist vehicle
Perhaps both, if enough people ask for the IF
This was really helpful and I would like to see the model weathered too. Thanks for sharing this.
I enjoy watching your tutorials. On this one I would love to see now battle damage coming in and as David Stephens already mentioned, wheatering and all the dirt.
We will do!
I am starting a knight army soon and not owning an airbrush I was a bit worried on how to approach the panels. Definitely going to give this a try, I think it will look really good on a chaos knight where everything does not need to look perfect and clean!
I'd absolutely love to see how you would go about doing an Iyanden Wave Serpent, going off the theme of a brightly colored tank
Any excuse for bright colours! Good suggestion
I've been watching since your channel started, and everytime you ask for recommendations I say the same thing: I want to see you do a massive project all the way through (kind of like you did with dragons)
except I really want to see Archaon, belakor, lord of change and blood thirster. the range of complex textures, effects, armors, and colors seem like a truly unique opportunity
It is a great idea man, just takes so much time all in that it would have to be a personal project of mine, hard to justify it otherwise as it could be enough time for 10 other vids!
I would genuinely love to though. Especially bloodthirster!
Some weather techniques on this model would definitely be handy. Chipping & mud like you mentioned. Maybe how to use pigments too?
We haven't yet really touched pigments on the channel, excellent idea!
Looks absolutely great. Ill use this technique to paint my Ballistus Dreadnaught
Amazing, good luck with it!
Itll be ok as long as it looks just remotely like what you did here! Ive watched several vids to get some inspiration, but this style looks absolutely gorgeous
Maccrage blue looks so nice before it dries. Such a vibrant blue.
Ikr 🤣 such a shame. It does stay more vibrant when layered, but is harder drybrushing.
Would love to see a space wolves tank next time. Love your videos.
Great video, as always. I'll definitely be referring to this, as there are a couple of tanks on my horizon, for a pal of mine. It would be awesome to see how you bring that DB magic to camo-patterns on vehicles.

@@ArtisOpus Go big or go home I say! I can see your dry brushing techniques working beautifully on a Ma.K kit (about 4/5 times the height of a Warhammer mini.. the length of that tank side would be close to the height). Check my channel out!!
Hopefully one day I can watch you air an episode when I’m not at work.
Weekend release? :)
Looks great Byron. I got 3 Sisters of Battle tanks queing up to be painted by hand as Order of Our Martyred Lady (the Black armour) and definitely have the confidence to think i can do them this way even if the colours are different to the Ultramarine blue scheme. Good timing!
I do like the variety of surfaces in their tanks... Tempting!
I've used this technique for chaos rhinos before and it lends itself well to those colours (red in this case), so I think it'll be fine for blacks
Great as usual!! Could be very interesting one with a fancy pattern (e.g. tiger stripes) and some pretty effect!!
We will be adding some details to this in a future video for sure, maybe one for detailing, one for chipping/weathering :)
Hey Byron! I picked up the S series at adepticon and I'm excited to try them out!
Hey, my dude, thanks for your support! Let us know how they go?
Love your drybrushing videos. Would love to see one for how you'd do Black Legion
Multiple requests here for black, something we need to get to for sure. Perhaps three ways?
@@ArtisOpus that would be awesome! I liked your Black Templars video on it but I'm one of those people that relies on the visual so I'd have to see how effective it would be on Black Legion lol
Would be great to see some Tau tanks or battlesuits with them being quite round and having set panels
They're perfect for it, dude, I have a chunky one I need to strip, but it'd be a spot on set of volumes and shapes for us

Also, would be interesting to see "weaker" colours used, like orange, yellow etc, on a complete vehicle.
Oh, and nice music, just maybe turn it down a notch.
Noted, thanks for the feedback, buddy :). Yellow would be super-interesting for sure, always love IF schemes.
Weather would be great! But as for other chapters or factions, full video would be great but even just a rundown of the paints you'd select would be great
I think DA has been requested enough that we should give it a go, as well as weathering!
the weathering video would be awesome!!
I would like to see an Imperial Fists tank. Thanks for the videos!
My pleasure! IF would look brilliant, this can 100% be done!
OMG ! 😍 This technique is amazing for large surfaces. Could you show this technique on other large models ? I mean Kharadron Overlords Arkanaut Ironclad or Arkanaut Frigate.
Great channel with great tips and tricks ❤️
Oh dude, it's even better with metallics! Check our video on the imperial knight armiger
Ordered sets of your brushes and just found a Predator tank I've had in pieces for....a long time. IF I can figure out WTF I did with the turret, will be trying this. And yeah, my army is Ultramarines, because I had no imagination at the time. lol

While the VMC are indeed amazing paints, it's not something i'd go for when drybrushing simply because they're so watery/thin.
As Byron already said below though, for "normal" metallics they got you covered.

Great video as always. Do you have any videos for black armour colour schemes for tanks too? Thanks
Hi, when trying to achieve a darker base coat, rather than mixing with huldra or leviadron blue, could you achieve a similar result mixing with kantor blue? Thanks
I'd try something like naggaroth night or another deep colour buddy, you need the depth and darkness :)

We could always do a white vehicle... Pr 3 ways to do white armour.
Very cool tutorial!
It is a wonderful video thank you. I would like to know if these technique should work for a black tank? And if so which maybe what other points of attention?
Absolutely, dude. I tend to go blue black, and finish carefully with a crisp edge of a slightly blue grey, makes it look deeper.
Why don't you do the base in dark blue then use a brighter blue on top to leave the recess areas dark?
Either way is fine, this method can do both equally well. It's just preference
Chipping and weathering next
Yeah boii! Sure I can bring something to the table
Any pointers for doing the insane amounts of trim on CSM, say gold on Black Legion dudes?
You can actually paint them reverses, spray gold, drybrush silver, wash, then block in the panels, but unfortunately they're just fairly faffy models :| look amazing when done, though!
How would I go about doing this while painting a black vehicle like heresy dark angels?

Confirm, anyone can do this,. Just finished my red Bloody Rose Rhino by stippling/drybrush without previous exprience and it turned out great!
Yes, Jarek! Can you share pictures with us on socials or something? We always like seeing it :)
@@ArtisOpus pushed you a DM on Insta :)
Hey where did you get that picture in the background from? I love Magnus! Also GREAT tips on painting vehicles. Thank you!
I would like to see both, at some point, would be Imperial Fists and Iron Warriors tanks.
Oooo. Any excuse for metallics is a good one, imo. And metallics AND hazards is the best.
Byron, your videos are amazing, and I’m loving the Artis Opus brushes. Question: how do you clean the paint off of a Series D brushes mid-session after stippling a base coat onto the mini?
Can you get these same colours on a marine?
Hey man, this was really great !! Say, do you think you could do something similar with the custodes big vehicles like the calladius or the telemon? I must say I'm not too sure how to do them (Maybe a drybrush of gehennas gold after having shaded a retributor armor priming with some reikland fleshshade.
Sure we can touch on some in the future, for now check out the gold stormcast we painted, that's exactly where I would start :)
@@ArtisOpus tanks man, I'll be waiting for it !!!
What colours would you suggest for using this techniques on an onager dunecrawler with the mars colour scheme?
I'd love to see the method applied to some other common transports or vehicles. I like the necron scythe tutorial, be interested to see some Ork buggies/trukks or tau
Also love to see some weathering etc
We will definitely get to weathering soon, thanks for the other one, orks have been neglected!
Do you think i could replace the blues in this video with green? I'm prepping to paint a rhino for my first army, Salamanders, and i'm lookin for a good way to paint a vehicle quickly and easily
Absolutely, we have that exact video on the channel :D
@@ArtisOpus bitchin, thank you very much
How would you tackle this for Dark Angels?
Would love to see a White Scars vehicle (Stormraven 🤞) without airbrush 😁
Dry brush, the skill of the 90s!
I'd like a Salamander tank. I'd also like to see drybrushing on a different smooth surface, AoS fangmora eel would be nice.
Ooo. Well that's an excuse for something megaaa bright, which you know I love, consider me tempted!
Also looks insane weathered, mud on lime green... 🥰
What exactly is the pot you're poking your drybrush in? The glass/transparent one?
Hey dude, it is our dampening pad, an important part of our technique, and we achieve such smooth results.
Check out our flawless blends, and complete guide to drybrushing videos.
@@ArtisOpus thanks mate will definitely do! I love your content so far! I'm going to use these techniques at my 3 flecuent gnarlmaws and if it's works then I will try it at my chaos gargant.
@@LiamSinister We have a Gargant on the channel, and I painted Gnarlmaws at Adepticon, it works a treat! Best of luck, my dude :)
what green would you use to paint a dark angels vehicle?
Perhaps we will just have to find out!
Yes yes yes, can’t wait to do this on my fleet Of tanks
Yes! Share your experiences with us dude, good luck :)
Newbie here. Love your content. I am trying to replicate this on my rhino and it isn’t coming out right. There is a ton of texture and the blends are just not smooth. Am I using too much paint? Not enough moisture? Do I need to be more patient between coats?
Hey dude, thanks :).
Which size D are you using bud, and how many drops in the dampening pad?
Let us know in another comment (not a reply, they get lost)
I tried this technique and it gave a very rough texture that doesn't match the smooth paint I already have down. Is there any way of avoiding this or something that I did wrong?
As a newcomer to this channel, what is that grey bead pad he was using? I am new to drybrushing so I haven’t seen this used
Hey dude, check out our complete guide to drybrushing, and flawless blends video, both cover the dampening pad (which introduces moisture) really comprehensively :)
@@ArtisOpus I never got the chance to respond back due to some real life stuff taking my attention for a long while, but thank you very much!! I am intending to give this a proper shake when everything settles down.
Man I use and love your techniques and brushes but living here in Arizona it is so DAMN dry here I can't get away with plopping paint on the texture palette its dry within probably a few minutes, I have taken to using my wet palette but it's a bit tricky trying to moosh it blends around. Great stuff as always!
I have heard how extreme your last year or two have been, dude. Jason from Pro Acryl told me of the horror stories!
It's a good idea, you can always put it out there, and scoop to dry source.
Have you tried a humidifier in your painting area? It's not always temp, but humidity, they're about 30bucks, and you just top them up with water, charge from usb generally, plus good for your body.
@@ArtisOpus honestly I've considered the humidfier and as of this moment its getting added to the cart haha. Its plenty cool in my house, so its 100% humidity (lack of) that's my issue. Thanks!
@@mactheknife801 No worries dude! Let us know how it goes in our next vid, interesting to find out if it makes a difference!
I was really hoping to catch this as a live stream but my time zone makes it to late but I really want to ask how you would use this kind a technique with metallic silver? I have GK and any time I try this the silver seems to cover too well and I don’t get the fades and transitions?
Love the channel and brushes
Just mix more black in with the beginning steps, and don't be afraid to go back in and stipple shadows/use washes
Check out imperial knight metallics vid
Yeah ok I’ll give it a shot, thanks!
Noob question, what's the pad thing?
It's our dampening-pad, dude :). Not a worry!
It's used to introduce a small and predictable amount of moisture to the painting process before, during, and after, it's how we manage to keep things so smooth.

These should help!
Hi Byron, could the same technique be done using oil paint?
Hey dude, mhhhm. The stippling 100%... (And maybe even more smooth) The edges, maybe not?
A Sororitas Tank would be awesome :D
I quite like a couple of theirs, tbf
@@ArtisOpus the exorcist or the immolator are beautiful and filled with details
