This is going full circle, Larry getting a new set of tattoos ! Could you do a silk tutorial ? Like those amazing purple pants of the US golden demon winner ?
Oh man, what a useful video. When you said it was quite easy to do tattoos, I was a bit sceptical, but just as you said, it's very straightforward. Slow and steady, thin paint/ink and a good point on your brush. Thanks Vince, this was such a great video.
I'd love to see your take on making glowing magical tattoos! I have an orc barbarian with magical tattoos I've got almost done but too scared to ruin it with my attempt at that...
Currently doing a house goliath gang. Decided to try and cover them in tribal ink. Will probably be kicking myself soon but this video was definitely helpful
The glazing of the flesh over the top of the tattoo is the spice for me, I've been mixing flesh ihtot the tattoo ink colour and it's not been as successful as this method seems to be! 😊
Yep, we did this earlier, but I had more I wanted to say and I am trying to redo older (longer, worse filmed hobby cheating) where possible, especially when I feel I can provide more information.
Thank you for this tutorial Mr. Venturella. Two questions. 1) What size brush were you using here? 2) Were you using any other skin tones to get the flesh colour you achieved? I'd like to do this with an ogre soon!
It's a Monument sable brush, size 0. THe actual skin tone was built from many colors (I cover it in a previous video), but when I'm glazing over the tattoos it's just the mid-tone or highlight tone.
This is...a really helpful tutorial I didn't realize I needed, lol. I've been practicing my skin painting and gotten a bit better but adding simple shape tattoos? That could add some fun visual interest! And I think it'd work very well with my contrast heav y style. Cause I think you could do the tattoo first, be able to clean up any mistakes with the prime coat colors, and then apply the contrast on top, no? Cause unless the tattoo color is lighter, the contrast should just filter on top of the tattoo and make it look worn. ...right? Or is my logic flaws here?
I've been wanting to try tattoos. But I should probably start with learning to paint skin. Currently I use contrast colors for skin. Would this tutorial work similar with contrast color?
Vince, I watch your videos all the time and it’s really helped me become a better painter (I have a huge set of stored videos of yours that I reference from time to time). However no matter how well I clean my brushes or be careful not to get paint into the ferrule the tips always seem to curl after a few weeks/months of use. Is this normal? I suspect there’s some step in my brush care I’m missing. I’m using brush soap but I suspect I’m not doing it correctly. Do you have any advice (or a link to an older video where you covered this)?
I will have to check them out. Thank you for the reply and all you do for the community. It's much appreciated. Ps. I'm leveling up my painting. Thank you 😂.
Absolutely, warpaint is slightly different, because it's sitting fully on top of the skin and needs to be rougher. But still really needs those highlights.
Vince, didn’t you once say “I don’t have any artistic talent..” ? Uh, I think we all know better. 😄 Also, I’m trying to find the mini painting event you will be in at GENCON this year. I’ve looked through the event list, all I see is Beginer stuff and a lot of Battle Tech tutorials. Any help? Thanks.
Can we see how you normally would paint regardless of footage? I find myself trying to mimic the footage I see, so I'm sure a lot of the painting I do is mimicking bad painting for the sake of filming.
Reminding me of my intro to draw on glass in college The professor told me don't try to draw a giant robot a person a tank a dog a cat or anything like that You're never going to be able to do that just remember it's not that it's just lines on a piece of paper and what you realize it's just lines on a piece of paper you will accomplish what you want to do. From the same art class the professor told me never compare yourself to other artists cuz there's always somebody better and when you've created the perfect piece put the pencil down and never draw again cuz you've just done something that no one else can ever do. What does that mean in painting You're always going to be unhappy with your work You're always going to find something you don't like about it cuz you painted it so don't compare yourself to it give it to someone else and have them look at it you'd be surprised
Same principles, you want to aim for contrast, but a mix of paint and ink to keep it flowing, and then building up from those simple shapes and swoops will get you there.
Hey, could you tell me what respirator mask do you use when airbrushing? And by the way, I want to thank you for not wasting our time by throwing at us embarrassing jokes every half minute :)
I like my Ogors to either have really cartoonish bad tattoos that they did themselves, or decent ones that they had some poor captive artist do for them
It’s crazy that you made this video yesterday because I just started painting tattoos this morning. Honestly, it’s pretty difficult. Is there any chance you have an Instagram?
If we tally all the time spent painting Larry the Ogor over the years does he qualify as a golden demon entry?
This is going full circle, Larry getting a new set of tattoos !

Great idea for a hobby cheating!
Not letting the ink fully dry could be a good effect for older, faded tattoos. 👍👍👍
Thank you for making something intimidating so approachable, Vince!!
Awesome to hear! That's the goal for sure. Hope you're doing well!

Thank you! Always happy to help. :)

Sounds great! I'll add it to the list.
Currently doing a house goliath gang. Decided to try and cover them in tribal ink. Will probably be kicking myself soon but this video was definitely helpful
Its great to see Larry getting some more love again !
Perfect timing for this to come out!
I have three Gargant’s which need tattoos and this was great, thank you!
i approve of this... love whenever i have a chance to put a little ink to my painting
Perfect timing! Working on Gotrek right now and he has all this good open skin space go practice with.
Oh wow. This is also going to be applicable to certain decorations of the Night Lords variety.
Absolutely amazing. Thanks.
Yet again a topic that I was getting ready to try!!! Epic Technomancer Perception!!! Many Thanks!!!
This is very relevant to the Trog-Goth army I'm working on currently! Good timing all around
And I have all these colors already! Yeah! Like the freehand tips too! Will use that on a kimono pattern that I have been struggling with!!!
Incredible Vince. Thanks.
My pleasure!
Larry! But I must say Larry's best tattoo was his "Mom" in a heart tattoo. Too bad it seems that Larry had that tattoo laser removed.
Always great Vince, thank you. And Timely to boot!
You make it look so easy and effortless.
Love your work and dedication!
Larry! Great to see he's got some new tatts ^^
Super helpful! Thank you Vince! 😊
Looks like Larry made parole again. Welcome back.
Thanks vince! Great video
awesome video! thank you for the great info.
I've been looking exactly for this topic. It's a great tutorial. So thanks a lot! 😊
Awesome, always happy to help!
Great stuff friend 👏 👍
God Save Larry!
(I'd vote for him.)
Ah just need to schwoop to the left and schwoop to the right, bam! Tattoos!
Yep, basically that's right. :)
Great timing. Was just asked about eleven hours ago, if I could paint a Maori style tattoo on a mini. Thank you!
Cool as always.
Amazing, I now feel ambitious enough to try this on my next mini :)
Another excellent tutorial, thanks very much!
The glazing of the flesh over the top of the tattoo is the spice for me, I've been mixing flesh ihtot the tattoo ink colour and it's not been as successful as this method seems to be! 😊
Larry’s inked up
This is going to be the most painful cycle for Larry's rebirth, all the effort.
Awesome video but I kept waiting for the bonesplitterz tattoos… well I guess it’s more of a war paint. Maybe a future hobby cheating video?
I had done one a long time ago, here is the link - ua-cam.com/video/q_Sntg2NqVo/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
I have a tattoo on my dingding that says 'I ❤ you Vince' Now smoke this... or else no food for you!
Are you glazing the skins midtown or it’s highlight over the tattoo?
I'm using something just slightly above the mid-tone, or the mid-tone itself, it will be bright enough to "fade" the tattoo.
Next video: how to make glowing tattoos!
Could you do something similar with transfers if you wanted a "professional" tattoo look?
Sure, you could even paint over them. :)
Fancy zoom in from the left on the names of the colors used. But has this subject not been done in an earlier HC?
Yep, we did this earlier, but I had more I wanted to say and I am trying to redo older (longer, worse filmed hobby cheating) where possible, especially when I feel I can provide more information.
@@VinceVenturella You are MVP to the hobby.
Where was this video last week when I was painting slayer tattoos 😂😂
ace!
Remember to like and comment to appease the almighty algorithm 😁❤️👍🏼
OK.
Thank you for this tutorial Mr. Venturella. Two questions. 1) What size brush were you using here? 2) Were you using any other skin tones to get the flesh colour you achieved? I'd like to do this with an ogre soon!

@@VinceVenturella Thank you. I will find the video soon, and I plan to work my way through all of them!

...right? Or is my logic flaws here?
No, it would work, as long as the contrast is the weaker sin ones (and not say the intense purple or something).
So we should finish the skin to final highlights before starting back in with the tattoos?
Yes indeed.
Ok, thanks!
I've been wanting to try tattoos. But I should probably start with learning to paint skin. Currently I use contrast colors for skin. Would this tutorial work similar with contrast color?
Sure, you could do this over contrast color skin no issue, I wouldn't try this with contrast paint specifically.
Vince, I watch your videos all the time and it’s really helped me become a better painter (I have a huge set of stored videos of yours that I reference from time to time).

Do you have any advice (or a link to an older video where you covered this)?
If it's a synthetic brush, there is no way to avoid it. If it's a sable brush, that shouldn't be happening.
Hi Vince what are the red brushes do you like to use I've been seeing them come up in most of your videos?
They are the sable brushes from Monument Hobbies, love them.
I will have to check them out. Thank you for the reply and all you do for the community. It's much appreciated. Ps. I'm leveling up my painting. Thank you 😂.
Hey Vince. Would you highlight warpaint on raised areas i.e. shoulders or upper back?
Absolutely, warpaint is slightly different, because it's sitting fully on top of the skin and needs to be rougher. But still really needs those highlights.
@@VinceVenturella Thank you
Vince, didn’t you once say “I don’t have any artistic talent..” ?

Also, I’m trying to find the mini painting event you will be in at GENCON this year. I’ve looked through the event list, all I see is Beginer stuff and a lot of Battle Tech tutorials. Any help? Thanks.
Search for my name under Groups & Organizations, that should be the classes.
Can we see how you normally would paint regardless of footage? I find myself trying to mimic the footage I see, so I'm sure a lot of the painting I do is mimicking bad painting for the sake of filming.
What do you mean? Happy to try to provide anything you need.
daddy has blessed us with more knowledge once again
Larry!

What about colored tattoos, like would be found on a Yakuza?
Same principles, you want to aim for contrast, but a mix of paint and ink to keep it flowing, and then building up from those simple shapes and swoops will get you there.
This man... assuming I can make an actual triangle that small instead of a blob🤣
Hey, could you tell me what respirator mask do you use when airbrushing? And by the way, I want to thank you for not wasting our time by throwing at us embarrassing jokes every half minute :)
Just an N95 Mask, but I'm using a booth with a vent as well.
