    Great video, thanks!
    When I started painting back in the early 80s, the switch from Humbrol enamels to the new Citadel acrylics was amazing. But washes weren't something I'd ever heard of back then, so adding depth was basically painstakingly painting in darker areas individually - I wasn't then (and nor am I now) a competition standard painter, I just wanted models on the table quick, so most of the time a dry brush would be enough, leave the shadows the original colour and move on. When I came back to painting after a long break, washes were available and totally changed the look of my models compared to everything I'd painted 35 years ago.
    I think I've learned a bit about my own preferences with washes - less is more (however tempting it is to dunk the figure in Agrax Earthshade, matching wash colour to the base colour is better), and to paint with a lighter base coat initially to achieve the colour you want after the wash has shaded everything.
    But I still then dry brush everything to within an inch of its life because it makes the model look great from 3 feet away, which is exactly what I want.

    Something new I been experimenting with that happy with results so far, is using airbrush flow improver as a wash medium so put a drop of airbrush flow in prover onto my palate additional amount of regular acrylic model paint in my brush a mixup and washing any colour I want. So far I have been mostly using this to make fast plasma coils, start with base coat of Vallejo how electric blue, and use a wash of airbrush flow improver mixed with Citadel kantor blue.

    I use never use dedicated washes or shades that companies sell. These days, I just thin a corresponding contrast paint with water or medium, then paint/push it into the recesses I want rather than just "slapping it on and letting it settle." I find that the ability to choose orange as a wash sometimes for metal, or magenta for skin, or purple for dinosaurs is very flexible and enjoyable.

      You should check out the Army Painter line of paints and shades. They have a number of shades (washes) that are other brighter colors like orange and purple that make for some really cool effects. I end up thinning them out a little from time to time.
      I know that most people tend to think of Army Painter for their speed paints and quick shade that can make it possible to paint an entire army in a few hours-but they’ve got so many cool colors for their shades that look amazing.
      For example, I painted this Zombicide model with this festering pustules on it and when I painted those with a light purple and coated them with a dark purple shade, it made them look amazing. I don’t even think I went back to highlight those after I did that.
      Usually my process is to put down a base coat of color onto everything a little lighter than I want, then I use a shade (typically black or nearly black brown) to fill in those tiny details and recesses, without worrying about it pooling in places that don’t make sense from a light and shadow perspective.
      Then I dry brush and highlight things with the same color I painted underneath the shade to lighten up and fix those big flat areas, and depending on how much I wanna get into highlighting I will keep adding a drop or two of white to whatever color I’m using to lighten it up a bit.
      The results look as good or better than anyone I’ve seen painting on UA-cam. Also, Army Painter has some neat looking FX paints they just relay with their latest update to their entire line of paints and some of them look really wild and I’m itching to try some of those out too to kick things up a notch.

    @mordecaitoth6703 Рік тому +3

    I have been having a lot of fun mixing army painter speed paints to get some really custom color schemes on the table and a big part of that is thinning them down to a wash or glaze like consistency to give metallic layers a unique shine. Sometimes, often when I am batch painting, instead of using the standard black or brown washes I like to use mixes of deeper shades of blues, purples, burgundies, etc, as a quick way to get more color on the model. This both reduces the number of steps to get them finished and also makes them visually more interesting, imo.

  • @kristophermelin7160
    @kristophermelin7160 Рік тому +3

    I've been using inks (like, for calligraphy or printing) and mixing them with matte mediums and flow improver. The results aren't always great, but a lot of the time, they are, and I've been able to add a whole bunch of variations of colors that I would need to spend A LOT more to buy individually from GW (etc.) It's worth investing $25 or $30 in inks and art supplies to play around and see what gets the results you want.
    Great video - thanks!

  • @ChopsTV
    @ChopsTV Рік тому +4

    I've gotten a lot of mileage out of mixing washes directly into the paints I'm going to use. Especially lighter color paints like yellows. somewhere in the 2:1 paint to wash ratio. Thins the paints nicely while also adding the worn color I'm generally going for. It doesnt work with every color (obvs) but its a very nice trick for a lot of others.

  • @TimBergen
    @TimBergen Рік тому +3

    Since your variables were 'how mixed-in additional media changed consistency/color/result in the final product', calling straight up Agrax your 'control' is wholly appropriate (and good science!).
    I've recently started learning to paint, and besides beginning with terrain (because it pains me less to try out an approach and then just say "okay, that's what it looks like!"), there's a lot of your 'try a lot of different approaches over white' in my method.
    I've also got a highlight-before-wash/highlight-after-wash pairing that really illustrates the point you were making about those differences, so from recent experience I can definitely see how sometimes highlight-before will have its place, but highlight-after gives (for me) better results in a couple different ways.

    After some experimentation/research, I found two products that not only enhance the control of GW shades and contrast paints but can also be used to improve the performance of the layer and base paints.
    Product 1: Flow Medium from Master's Touch Fine Art Studio found at Hobby Lobby. Pretty sure you can use any flow medium, but for the price/ounce this one has been my go-to for a couple years now.
    Product B: Matte Fluid Medium from Liquitex Basics Acrylic line. This turns any paint into a nice glaze and is pretty good as a brush on varnish. You could thin it down with airbrush medium for a spray varnish. Mixed 1:1 with the Flow Medium I found it performs very close to Contrast Medium. There is a gloss version but I prefer to control my lighting on a model surface. Again, others exist, yadda yadda, I'm a cheap old man, etc...

    I just watched a EonsofBattle video on this and he recommended brushing a small amount of water where you want the wash to go and then using the tip of the brush dropping the wash in and it automatically fills the area's and moves around the recesses on its own. Might take a bit longer but no staining of anything but the recesses.

  • @patgray5402

    I like to paint a base layer that is lighter than the final color I'm going for, then use a shade to darken it to the color I want. I particularly like using this over flat areas like shoulder pads. I use this with the old citadel wash formula so your mileage may vary.

  • @misternoobstar
    @misternoobstar Рік тому +1

    I usually mix a big bottle of colorless "wash medium" to which I add paints and inks as I need them. It's pretty easy to get light or dark washes by simply varying how much paint or ink I put in. For a 500ml bottle, my recipe is:
    - 3 parts distilled water (to thin the paint...obviously)
    - 1 part rubbing alcohol (so it dries faster and helps with surface tension, use the cheap dollarstore stuff)
    - 20 drops of acrylic flow medium and 1 drop of dish soap (to reduce surface tension and help it pool only in the recesses)
    A 500ml bottle lasts me well over a year and doesn't go bad. You do need to shake it before use though because it will decant.

  • @MyklCarlton
    @MyklCarlton Рік тому +2

    I see a lot of folk using oil-based washes recently. The Agrax looks like a dispersion issue between the medium and pigment, perhaps a little surfactant (dish soap?) might help?

  • @briochepanda
    @briochepanda Рік тому +1

    "Transparent" colours contain pigments with much lower tinting strength than other colours but still maintain a high pigment load, artist paint manufacturers will often label their paint tubes with an icon or a letter to denote the opacity or transparency of the pigment(s) used in each paint. This makes them ideal for glazing as they require less thinning for a subtle effect and also good for mixing into other colours with shifting their hue as drastically.
    A very good example of the difference between an opaque and a transparent pigment is seeing how Titanium white and Zinc white effect colours they are mixed with, and how much more pastel and chalky colours with titanium white in them go compared to zinc white which lightens without looking quite so chalky.
    Bright red and yellows pigments are both famously transparent and fugitive (fade in sunlight more quickly).
    A good test of a colours transparency is to paint an undiluted line of that colour over a patch of a much darker colour and see how much you can see how much of the darker colour you can see through it.

  • @dancingrook8553
    @dancingrook8553 Рік тому +1

    Personally I use washes over the entire model and don't necessarily reapply the base colours because I like the darker muted look. I do try to match shade colours tho so like yeah carroburg crimson if shading a red thing, drakenhof nightshade for blue etc etc

    @Bluecho4 Рік тому +2

    One thing that I've heard said is to use black washes over cool colors (blues, purples, etc), and brown washes over warm colors (reds, yellows, etc). Probably has something to do with most "black" paints (and thus most black washes) being actually dark, dark blue. By contrast, most browns have a lot of orange in them. So a black wash over yellow makes it look sickly green, whereas a brown wash over purple just looks muddy (and not in a good way).

    Hello there, I’m sorry to say I don’t play or paint tabletop games figures, please forgive me if I’m totally wrong in describing your hobby.
    So, right, I use agrax earthshade to paint my scale models, ie Planes, tanks and the odd u-boat. It really makes the hard to see detail pop. Landing gear looks used, running gear on tanks look oily and used and decking on u-boats, you can see the minute detail. Washes are really great and I think Games workshop has awesome colours. All so the sales rep in the store in Liverpool says he’s father uses earthshade to help make chrome wheels, just to look better.

    I use my trusty GW washes for now, but I've experimented a lot with them
    To be honest, Agrax never really did it for me, I used my first (small) pot entirely and never went back to it. If I want a dark brown, I always mix some black (either from a transparent paint or another wash) into my Reikland Fleshshade. I find this color way more interesting, its more orange tone makes it all the more vibrant, and it keeps that character even when darkened down, and I never find that in Agrax. Which also means that when the new wash range came up, I bought a bit of extra Reikland Fleshshade, because I love it as it was and am not sure the new version will do it for me. (I mean, it probably would serve relatively well when mixing with other stuff, but I don't like the thing as much from what i've seen online)

    Before I started customizing action figures (I've learned most of my techniques from miniature painters) I did custom paint jobs on rifles and pistols, and distressing was of course one of the most aesthetically pleasing techniques for guns. Likewise, I do most of my washes by first sealing my paint with varnish, then applying a very thinned out glossy acrylic such as Vallejo Game Color or decent canvas acrylics, then distressing the paint by immediately wiping the wet paint off at the high points with a damp towel, basically hitting the same places one would while dry brushing for highlights. If I wipe off more paint than preferred in any place, I can simply reapply the wash and do it again - it always blends perfectly with the rest of the wash.

    I still haven[t gotten how the Transparents work from Monumental Hobbies yet but they are interesting.

    I'm not a fan of what GW has done with their old washes, either. Do you know of any alternatives that have a similar effect and finish?

      I’ve had a few people tell me that Army Painter washes aren’t a bad replacement, but I only have a couple and haven’t been able to test the others. Thanks for watching!

      When the patches go on sale, then you can sew one on to lab coat yourself. Or sew it on to whatever you’d like, I suppose. Thanks for watching!

    Definitely will be getting that monument brown! That'll really help replace my agrax since it tends to make my black armor too glossy on flats. Thanks for the recommendation!

    I struggle to get consistent tones when a recipe says 50/50, especially when I have 21 T-34 tanks that need to be the same colour.

    Also, instead of using tiny 02 brush to place washes like he is doing in the video, just use a big brush and spread the excess wash around, instead of giving me cringe

    I mainly use washes for the darkest recesses or on clothing to help sell the folds and creases. never tried GW stuff, thats basically cheating lol.

      the concept of "cheating" in the hobby is so silly to me. Who cares about the method as long as the painter is happy with the end result and having a good time doing it.
