    As an auto body tech. Your idea of prep work being so important is spot on. Each stage gets easier if you prep well from the beginning.

  • @bruceyoung9692
    @bruceyoung9692 3 роки тому +3

    Okay, so a couple points.
    1) 3M Double Sided mounting tape is your friend. Use it to mount models to your disposable bases, so much quicker to get model on and off base than gluing then trying to be stupidly careful taking everything off.
    2) More mounting tape on a popsickle stick or yardstick to do your priming/shading/highlighting/feet. Five or more in hand will make that all so much easier.
    3) Why not just add the purple mix to your metallic as you’re base coating to make it an actual purple metallic instead of washing it purple? Then do a dry brush of your Monument Hobbies White Gold over the top? You could have then come back later to do some pinwashing to help draw out some of the detail when you weren’t crunching the clock?

    • @ArtisOpus
      @ArtisOpus  3 роки тому

      1 & 2 sound great! I like the depth added by the wash though, Vs colouring the metallic, there's definitely space for the drybrush over the top though, only done it on the keeper a little, but it looks great for 3 steps :)

  • @philedwards7331
    @philedwards7331 3 роки тому

    Yes! I take what others would consider an unreasonable amount of time smoothing lines, filling gaps, sanding/smoothing, and priming. The last thing I want is to regret 10 years from now not taking an extra 30 minutes making sure things are good from the beginning.

    Shaping up nicely! Will be very interesting to see 'em all together. (-:
    Since you asked about the yellow "azo" and I don't remember anybody answering. "A single pigment transparent warm yellow with a reddish tint. The azo pigment is a synthetic organic originally developed by the German Hoechst company in the early 1900s and first became popular as a textile dye"

    The warning to keep track of your 5 different experiments hit me in my soul. I've got 4 test models out right now and the one I like the most ended up being a bit of a mistake combined with additional faffing about and now I'm staring at it like "what the hell got me here"

    I’m not going to lie - I’m feeling quite a bit of anxiety at this point. I was really enjoying this series up until this episode :) One day to go and there’s just SO MUCH still to do! Will this be a case of the ink still being wet when you turn up to the tournament? Good luck mate.

  • @BarokaiRein
    @BarokaiRein 3 роки тому +2

    Yeah I spend quite a long time priming as well and more often than not I'll give them a zenithal highlight also with primer since I've already got my airbrush out. Usually I also go over them and brush on some primer on any bits that look like they were poorly primed or I just missed with airbrush. I also let them sit for 24 hours just to make sure that primer is fully cured before I start painting them.
    I'm quite paranoid about that part of painting to be honest.

    You can put your models in lighter fluid (e.g the fluid you buy for barbeques). You'll need to leave them in there overnight.
    It doesnt harm the plastic at all, but it gets under the layer of acryllic paint very effectively, making the paint peel off very easily with a toothbrush/airbrush cleaner brush for smaller areas.

    Aren't you a fan of using Dettol to strip paint, Byron? It works really well and it's cheaper than the stuff you use. I'd like to know who discovered that Dettol strips acrylic paint, what sort of frame of mind were they in to try that?

  • @philgee486
    @philgee486 3 роки тому +1

    Honestly, and I have complete respect for Byron, but with the clock so low (or even as general principles), way too many of the steps became obscured and revisited with other later techniques. You don't need to airbrush extremities purple, and then again more dilute for transitions, if you then go over them with two opacitites of strong paint/ink wash to reproduce exactly the same effect more strongly in exactly the same areas. For an army scheme, you need to follow through on processes until the model is done, not test five ways of doing just one process and then largely overpaint the lot anyway. Huge sympathy for the guy and his honest and earnest struggle

    • @ArtisOpus

      If I'd had more time to work this out it would have been closer to this mate, part of deadlines is not having the ability to take stock/get stuff perfect. Realised at each point I was doing it, but it's too late by then, you just can't let it annoy/get to you, especially when you're against it!
