I'm always curious why you do all over layers when painting? What's the reason for doing the first layer if you're going to completely cover over it with a different colour?
Yeah the way this guy paints is weird. He'll base the same parts multiple times, essentially deleting his previous layer. He says its to build up colour, but I don't see it myself, and I've never seen anyone else do this. He wastes a lot of time, explaining why his videos are always so long 🤷♂️
It clearly works for him, the results speak for themselves. I was more interested in the reasoning for it. Does it give better coverage, does the colour show through etc...
Thank you for your interest :). So personally I dont like working off a single base layer, i've found that by increasing the hue over a few layers helps build up a more solid and consistent tone for working off the layers and highlights later on down the line. 90% of my models i've always worked off a black undercoat and its just something i've developed myself which helps me achieve the look im going for. Ive also had issues before with patching when washing over one initial basecoat and this seems to mitigate it, at least in my experience anyway. Its just something i've always done and it seems to work for me although maybe i'm just blinkered into my routine after 20+ years painting lol
@@brucewayne8562 Thank you for the feedback bud! TBH the length of the videos has been something I want to work on going forward so will deffo be taking this under advisement,, see if I can shorten the video time. Hope you're enjoying the content so far.
Do you think you could do a video on brush care, and how you go about it? Your brushes always look immaculate!! I get through so many myself
Great idea!! This I can certainly do!
Thanks ! i used this technique for my Storm raptor from Warmachine/Hordes game! Very helpful!
Im glad to have been a help!!
I think I’ll lean on this when I get to Gwaihir
I'm putting off getting Gwaihir myself now aha
Building a Radagast's Alliance army and this will be super helpful. Thanks
Glad to have been a help :)
Super tutorial. 4:15 This mix is almost Gorthor Brown-Citadel
and 2:41 is almost mournfang brown.
Thank you so much!!
another amazing vid. if you wanted to do some orc trackers or some wood elf warriors i would be SUPER happy cause im about to paint some of each
Im sure we can accommodate this :D
Nice to see the artis opas series d brushes being used. Great tutorials dude!
The Artis Opus brushes are incredible! Very worth the money!

It's probably because he's working up from black. Would probably take longer to get solid coverage if he didn't use an intermediate layer.
