    Hey all, let me settle any issues anyone has right here. I didn't delete any comment about the original owner of one of the pictures I used as an example in this video, I'm not that kind of person, and there are plenty of videos on this channel to show that. All of the images used were straight pulled from google images and placed in a folder on my computer. As I explained in the video. I like to gather materials before I paint. Including painted models, lizard skin, basing materials, textures, etc. It's a great way to see the possibilities and expand your idea of colors for a model. In the last example I showed, which happens to be Fernando Noda's, whom I had not heard of before this, and was not aware that this picture was his work, I said that what I really liked about it was the contrast between the reds and blues. So as a reference for color that was what I used. I didn't copy the paint job, or the base, and I certainly didn't compare the final work to Fernando's. I hope this clears up any confusion and we can get back to doing the hobby we love!
    Fernando, if you want to chat I 'm down. Email me and we can set up a call!

      @stevens9625 2 роки тому +10

      Pretty common pricing strategy actually. The collection box is the real price point - GWS just pumps up the standalone so much that the box set seems like incredible value and anyone who actually buys the standalone is just icing on the cake for GWS. You see a lot in telecom packages too.

    I think the reason why GW sells the model for that price is because they can generate more sales from people.
    Because essentially buyers will look and see the absurd pricing, and subconsciously will be more tempted to buy the starter box.

      Same gies for the start collecting box for fyreslayers, the standalone big fire dragon and the start collecting have almost the same price. Starting to see a pattern? Why offer a real discount on start collecting when you can simply overexagerate the cost of the non-bundled models 👹. Skaven are no different, the standalone bell cost almost as much as the start collecting

    I dont want to rain on your parade too hard, but you can get an unbilt second hand start collecting seraphon for about 45-50€ (maybe 60ish USD). I got two on sale for 55€ each including shipping from a third party vendor. So you get a brand new Carnosaurus and 12 Warriors and 7 Knights for free. Actually the start collecting Seraphon box contains the tools to easily build 4-5 heroes AND an additional large Dinosaur (if you can kitbash and have basic sculpting skills).

      @@nickromanthefencer why be dissapointed when the end product turns out so well? Miniature painting for commissions/selling isn't about how much effort you can put into something, but about streamlining the process to an end product that a buyer would like. If you can get great results out of some airbrush work, oil washes, and a little detail work, and make a considerable amount of money off of it, why not do that? after all doing so you can do more projects in a shorter time leading to more sales.

      That’s a nice brush for sure, as far as a compressor. Don’t worry too much about an overly expensive one, something under $100 with a tank will be your best bet. There are a ton of off brand ones on Amazon, they are all the same compressor from China, just look for the one that’s on sale :)

      Not really, it does leave kind of tide marks, but it's more the spread of the oil over the surface, it disappears once the model is varnished. If you varnish beforehand though, it's really a non issue. I put it on all the time and don't varnish before or after and it generally looks great!
