How to IMPROVE INSTANTLY using basic techniques
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2024
- In this video we're literally using our recent speed-painting skeleton's method, and paints, sticking with the bone we're trying to answer a very important question:
Can we use the same 'basic' technique (spray-can, contrast, stipple, highlight) and achieve a notably better result?

Special thanks to Pëksy for use of the beautiful track Orbits! Check out more of his work over at Bandcamp...

Got a set of Model D brushes from your store, not just because they are beautifully crafted brushes in the most wonderful presentation but also wanted to very much support the tutorial work you are doing here. Saving up for a Model S set now. Thanks so much for the informative and inspiring content!
Scuse me while I ASMR pass out.
😴😴😴
That's part of why I love these videos, just paint and relax.
I’m in hospital post surgery using these videos as a chill vibe to drown out the machines. his voice is so soothing
Really liked what you said about the little positive feedback loops :) And what you said about mistakes - they can be frustrating at the time, but mistakes teach you massive lessons very quickly, and being forced to rectify them gives you more experience, and increases your confidence to try new and more ambitious things!
I love your plasma technique, Looks really good.
I love that you openly experiment and share those vids rather than just oh look here's something tasty looking, I experiment alot and it nearly always leads to my best results!
Absolutely man... although stay tuned for the next video where it doesn't! 😅😢
@ArtisOpus can't wait! Lol thought my latest experiment would go wrong but it's worked well, keeper of secrets robes painted as a warp storm
oh man, i love your videos, they are one of the greatest tutorials and super easy to follow.
so much work are in them and so thought through
Thanks man, it means a lot, this one took a good while due to some back end issues, glad it was worth the wait :)
Really down to earth and honest advice. Definitely lots of great tips which I can't wait to try out :)
Warm spray cans in hot water for smoother spraying.
WARM water, not hot.
We did warm this one, but white is still tricksy!
Correct 💣💣💥
@@NegativeNezzy Guess it depends what you call warm or hot. What comes out of my hot water tap, which is 120F / 49C is what I call hot water. It's the perfect temperature to put spray cans in to warm up.
This, by the way, is the temperature new hot water heaters max out at to prevent scalding.
Warm water to me is down around 30-35C, which is far too low to be very useful, Good for a shower or washing hands, but not warm enough for paint.
Plasma video please! This guy turned out great, and that plasma coil is such a nice focal point. As for the terminator chapter - I’d love to see Minotaurs!
Would you like to see with or without fluorescent paints? They definitely change things a little
One of each 😅 please. @@ArtisOpus
@artisopus what ever way you are doing it without a airbrush!
Yes, an in-depth look at the plasma would be great. Maybe a comparison of the with and without fluorescent paints? Looks great
@@ArtisOpus I m about to try some plasma red / blue / green for my HH DA and I have a couple of fluo from vallejo offered by a friend so I would be more than happy by a tuto with them if that can help you to choose ^o^ - thank you for all your work !
Thank you for inspiring me and many others to keep with this hobby
My favourite channel. Keep up the great work
Cheers buddy!
Just received my deathwind Assault box yesterday! I'm going to use this as a guide to paint , very excited to paint my first terminators!
I have a massive collection of old school GW models Empire, Chaos Warriors, Goblins, Beast Men and the biggest load of the exact old school skeletons from your last vid I’m really interested in picking up the contrast style of painting! I’m am going to need to start from scratch with paints and brushes. Your content has been a massive education and inspiration to picking the hobby back up after a long time out of it, slowly working through the back catalogue of videos,amazing! thank you 👍
My man, welcome back! I would recommend a Series D+ set, XXL Texture palette, and a Series S Size 3 (magical one size fits all brush) if you needed a comprehensive starter kit. Paint wise pick a favourite tutorial on a favourite mini and enjoy!
Any more questions just let us know in another comment... replies get lost
awesome job! 😮
Looking forward to a Plasma video too 😊
watched live, now watching again. great tutorial, thank you.
🥰🥰
Yes please , I would love to see a red plasma tutorial ..as for a chapter choice 🤔🤨 I think space wolves please .
Such a great video Byron , I’ve been using your brushes and following your tutorials for the past few years and my painting has really come on . I love that you leave in your mistakes … it makes us lesser mortals feel a little better about our cock ups 😂 thanks again vik
Please do Crimson Fists - they are cool and classic (and I am totally not starting them so I could make good use of tips on their armour)
P.S. Ffffffff
Ppffffff indeed, and this seems popular already!
Nicely done.
Cheers buddy!
Everything about the work you've did on the Deathwing Terminator's fantastic!
Non-metallic details on some of the Plasma cannon high-lights has some classic style I like about.
However the glow effect of the plasma coil's on the cannon itself is the most part that caught my eyes of interest.
This part I would like to paint more of on the coils of plasmaguns.
This is good, thank you Byron for this video.
A lot of great tips and guidance, applicable to all sorts of modelling 👍👍
🥰
Came out great! I think this technique can be used for Imperial Fists as well.
As always, great video! I'd love to see a Black Templars terminator I feel like the black could be a challenge!
It's been a while since doing Black templars, would love to do a weathered one in particular
@@ArtisOpus then you know what must be done :P
awesome work as always.
Cheers buddy!
Lovely model and a great video absolutely full of nuggets of wisdom! Would love to see a plasma glow tutorial
Cheers buddy! Looking forward to your next Orruk updates!
I would love to see you do Howling Griffons. I love that quartered paint scheme
I'm about to try painting up some Black Templars for my first terminators, and I'd love to see a video on how you paint them!
Look up Juan Hidalgo's video on painting black armour fast and easily, it's something like "the easiest black armour tutorial".
I would love a pasma tutorial !
Space Wolves get my vote
Of course we want a plasma video!
What a great finish. I'll admit I was totally sceptical at the tea staining of the skeleton horde in the darker areas to begin with but the stippling and drybrushing really blended that out nicely.
Loved all the bonus bits at the end too. Fair play on not giving up after the airbrush overspill. 👍
Got to have faith! It works so well, you could actually exchange word bearers for something lighter or add a little cream or bone, and the contrast may go down more subtley
@@ArtisOpus I would have never thought of WB as an undershade for a cream scheme but you can't argue with those results.
PS if you ever take on the 90s Space Wolves scheme from WD I'd be over the moon. Never managed to replicate that pale blue grey blend.
I would love to Crimson Fists or Flesh Tearers, loved the video!
Crimson Fists really seen to have a big terminator following! Not against the idea :)
Space wolfs would be good or a chapter away from the normal ones, also i would love to see you do a 40K ork, thank you for your informative videos
Love me a good Space Wolf. They might be due a re-do
I was doing something similar with my termis, but instead of stampling, I went for dry brush. So it was black primer, grey dry brush, white dry brush, contrast, dry brush. End Results were more grim, high shadow and contrast akin to Darkest dungeon characters
Oh please please do a iron fist, need some tips in the red paint job.
A plasma video would be very useful, especially the using the contrast medium and white almost looked like you managed to use it like oil panel liner?
And I’d like to see crimson fists please.
Grey Knight Terminators ftw!
Late to the party here, but a horus heresy Imperial Fist Huscarl would be a super enjoyable watch. The yellow and black is inverted for first company, so black armor with yellow accents and pauldrons. Think itd be a nice one for getting some good depth painting black and blocking notorious colors like yellow.
Dang i missed the premier. Although this gives me something good to watch tomorrow lunchtime.
I thought about DMing you but it felt obnoxious 😅
@@ArtisOpus never obnoxious and sometimes I need a kick to notice things 😆
Just watched it! The eyes came out brilliantly. I've zero knowledge on terminator chapters so I'll just say an orange one.
Ravenguard, show us how to paint black tones like a pro!
I absolutely love the look of that painting handle. Love the chunky shape.
Is that a branded product or a prototype for a new AO product?
Hey buddy, it's a prototype I created that's in testing :). So far so good but tuning is needed!
@@ArtisOpus I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for that one to be ready. Looks awesome!
Would also love to see phoenix terminators for Emperor’s children. Also how do you paint the eye lens?
I actually use this for the bulk of my models now, but I use a thinned sepia wash rather than Contrast. Similar results, although of course you're a much better painter. :)
Yes please show us how you created the plasma red, pretty please (:
I'd like to see one of your own creation, but with the main colour being huldra blue.
Don't tempt me, Frodo!
Do a Marines Errant one 👍
Artis Opus... The Bob Ross of miniature painting.
Great job bro! Sometimes when I drybrush I end up taking previous layers of paint off the model, am I applying too much pressure? Also I just picked up some fluorescent paints so I'd love to see you bring those back into your tutorials 😁 Keep up the good work!
It would be great to see a drybrush tutorial on yellow (like the Space Marine Conquests Apocalypse cover) rather than brown or orange, Imperial Fists and white scars would be interesting to see
Heavily weathering light coloured ones would look so good!
I need you to go back in time to 2006-7 when I started Deathwing and post this video.
As not big fan of deathwing i instantly wanted to paint it! But Next please paint Blood angels terminator
i would love to see blood angels
Space Wolves please. Using Contrasts/Xpress paints!
Deathwing knights. Screw everyone else. We are the only terminators that matter 😅
Can you do a video on panting reptile skin please if you haven't done one already, I've got a elf on dragon from fantasy cult miniatures. It's an amazing miniature but it doesn't have scales so I have no idea on how to approach it. Help! Please 😅
Space Wolves or Crimson Fists next please!
These are the two most requested I think!
Plasma video pleassssse !
How about the Grey Knight Terminators / Paladin squad, really interesting looking models.
One of my soft spots for sure :)
Just got into the hobby, What kind of mat is that one that you use as your palette? as well as what is that pot containing? thanks! :)
I just started watching the channel's videos and I wondered the same about the palette. He mentioned that it's just one of the texture palettes primed black and he's using it as a normal palette on the smooth parts (though to be honest the whole palette looked a little smooth so maybe its an older one).
As for the pot, its a dampening pad. It's used to add moisture to the drybush so that the brush isn't too dry (brush clogging) or leaving a 'chalky' finish (think dried paint particles). (Sorry, I know this comment is a month old)
I have two questions.
When do you choose to spray your highlights (like you did now) and when do you go for a drybrush? Like you do most of the time.
If you use a spraycan from 45° from all angles. Won't the front and back look the same? Or is that what the drybrushing/stippling is for?
PS: I just tried your flame video from a while back. Looks amazing, and that on the frist try from a beginner. Amazing tutorial.
In which stores in Mexico can I get your brushes?
Plasma video... Yes, please 😁
Is the initial workflow black primer -> reference photo -> WB Red undercoat -> zenithal? I'll be doing all these steps with an airbrush, if it matters. Thanks for all the advice!
ETA: definitely plasma video!
I was trying to work this out, although think it might be grey primer. I was planning to not use my airbrush and trying to work out how to do the red if there was a rattle can similar but i don't think so
Imperial Fists would be great to see and in no way because I’ve hit a wall on mine…. 😅
It’s been a while since I have a seen good Orc tutorial … how about GHAZGHKULL THRAKA 😮 or something beastly 😊
what kind of palette is that? I see it on website, called "texture palette" but I don't get how it works - can it be used as wet palette ??
Hey buddy, we use it *like* one, but you can't use it *as* one.
Prime it chaos black - and then the flat sections (I use XXL, they're big) are your traditional palette section.
Think more 🎨 than wet-palette :)

I'd like to see a Space Wolf terminator tutorial, but because they're primarus, it would have to be a Wolf Spear in grey armour, not the powder blue.
Great work by the way.....
As a mini painter.... i absolutely cannot stand to have paint touch my skin at ant time, for any reason. Im scared itll rub off on my green inspiration....if you know what i mean.
I really have an issue with dry brushing. It feels like my dry brush exists in two states:
1) too much paint. Every stroke basically paints a streak of color.
2) no paint at all. No matter how long I try no paint is coming off from the bristles.
Tried both cheap makeup brushes and yours, and I can never make it work for edges. Heavy drybrush akazenithal - easy, that's just state #1. But as soon as it stops acting like a normal brush - it stops depositing any paint at all😮
What’s the difference between the F nd D+ set please ?
The D+ set is the sizes between the existing Ds, it the S+ XS+ and M+ are fantastic for infantry :)
Orks count, right? I'd love to see what you'd do with Kharadron Overlords to make them super shiny but maybe give them a bit better contrast than they have in the box art
I have an entire pre built and pre converted army... engine room bases and everything!
@@ArtisOpus whaaat are they on Instagram? I'm building mine still at the moment but a little stuck on paint scheme. I really want to see yours though 🤩
not a large deal, but isn't that the incorrect base size?
Might be! I often paint these minis on smaller bases than necessary as it helps access to the mini from below angles, it is really helpful for stippling especially
100% plasma video!
Just go ahead with the video about plasma guns!
Could you airbrush the first coat?
Absolutely, and the zenithal!
GREY KNIGHTS
A hot brew made with the Athelas plant should help bring life back to your fingers.
😁
PLEASE DO A PLASMA GLOW VIDEO !!!!!1111
Crimson Fists!
Oh oh, we have a most requested!
I've watched the whole video and i still have no idea what the "#1 trick" is
10.20 Guess which body part fixed that.... lol
🤪🤪
And to be honest......
I've never done that 😂😂😂
I’m sorry to be an idiot, but how did you prime in Word Bearers Red? I don’t see a spray can for it. Did you airbrush?
I gues he either airbrushed or he stipple on the base coat with a dry brush as per his tip shared in his drybrush ing video where he paints the terrain piece with a destroyed scout walker on its side.
I stipple my base coats as I don't have an air brush it's so much faster than trying to paint on a base coat with a normal brush.
Nothing to be sorry about :). I lightly dusted chaos Black, and then hand basecoated (we have a stipple video on it, Large scenery tower on the thumbnail).
🥰 it works so well, and the hand prime here actually smooths out the old sculpt a little
Space Bears
Plasma video!!!!
The people are voting!
legion of the damned would be nice ;)
My suffering seems to be in mind for half these suggestions 🤨😅
@@ArtisOpus maybe it's part of the fun ;)
30k space wolves colour scheme please
Absolutely classic
Where is my Order Scammers ???
I get the feeling you want to sell your brushes
Noyce
Brazen claws? 😂 Nobody does 2 tone terminators
Someone wants to watch me suffer 😅
