  • Today’s Crass Course is on painting Marble with Baby Wipes. It can probably be done with spray paint and rattle cans too, but this is designed specifically for airbrushing. The airbrush is a useful tool and using different items like wet wipes can multiply your miniature painting possibilities. In this case, making authentic and very realistic marble patterns on suitable model parts without having to go crazy with freehand or other handbrushing techniques. Smooth and simple process with stunning results!
    There were other painting guides on marble baby wipe methods, but I felt like they were missing that extra detail and some helpful warnings. My favorite how to had it as part of a base’s buildup instead of the actual focus so I decided to make my tutorial based on tips, tricks, and other helpful pointers. Because as simply as this method of making marble is, one misstep can make you start over. And in the minipainting world, restarting is morale breaking and painful.
    So hopefully you find this stencil useful for your warhammer or other miniature projects! I can see these used on stairs or flat surfaces for nice 40k bases or warhammer age of sigmar ruins. Weathering can take it the rest of the way if need be. I’m sure it can be used in Dungeons and Dragons scenery and other tabletop terrain, but so far I’ve only tested and proven its prowess on forgeworld knights and titans. It helps swapping colors gives it a lot of longevity too.
    Crass Course: Ever want to quickly learn a few things about a topic but don’t have the time to sit through long videos? Enter Crass Course. As the name implies, it’s a collection of short tutorial videos focusing on a certain topic, whether they are hobby related or video game simulation based construction. I’ll impart the knowledge I know on the topic in a somewhat roundabout way, kinda like you asked the cool guy at the store how to do something that he does frequently. As the name implies, it's complete with completely unnecessary humor and inserts to make a blend of informative and entertainment.

    I took a commenter’s advice about slowing my talking. Apparently actively trying that didn’t work at all and I talk fast regardless…
    On a better note, you may have noticed a new overhead camera with different color values. It’s a new overhead setup I don’t have to move into position every time, so now I can really hammer away on that Freehand course! Quality isn’t as good as the workhorse camera but I’m not about to hang that heavy thing over my head.

    Very nice video! Good production and good humor. As an addition, when doing marble bases, I would grind down the grit of the base via sandpaper. Will make the marble look even better!

      If it does I hope it's a controlled burn - As much as I love minipainting, doing solely that would drive me up a wall after a while (already starting too).
      That said, I still got my future Freehand course to release so there's that!

      @jossypoo 2 роки тому +1

      I've done it before, with decent results.
      My advice is patience.
      Spray from far away and kinda dusting, letting the paint fall onto the mini, rather than with any force.
      If it lands as liquid or with any force, it goes under the sheet and spews around.

    Best tutorial I’ve seen for this. I’m considering doing this for the skin on a bust. Any tips to keep the wipe flush around the contours of the face/chest?

    • @DDBuilds
      @DDBuilds  Рік тому

      Unfortunately that'd be much harder jsut because of all those dang contours. You might be able to get away with putting some of the higher and smaller edges like the nose and ears through the loops so the strands can sit closer on everything around them, but the eye wells and any other dips will suck

    • @DDBuilds

      The paint stiffens the fabric so moving it onto another piece can be a bit of a pain. I've always just used another sheet because of that, but haven't tested reusing a sheet to see if it still wraps fine. Sorry I couldn't give a definite answer!

    What makes a 'crass' course different from a crash course? A crash course is a swift course; 'crass' means coarse, boorish, grossly stupid, tactless or insensitive. Why is your channel so named?

    • @DDBuilds
      @DDBuilds  3 місяці тому

      It's just wordplay for my tutorials. They're designed to be compact and detailed, yet are still filled with flippant humor absent in the majority of the tutorial world.
      And my channel is DDBuilds, not Crass Course.
