It still amazes me how much great helpful tutorials you made throughout all these years and yet you STILL have more to teach us. Legend
Happy to help!
This is one of the best tutorials I've seen and so helpful, thank you so much. Only criticism I would have is having substitute paints for beginners listed. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video, it was so informative
Thanks you! This video really helped me with Lion El Johnson.
Glad it helped!
What's nice about blonde is the range of influences you can go for, reds, oranges and bronzes all go with the yellow and can create some nice depth.
As can silver highlights for the bright gold "high-elf" hair.
I believe the reason this bust has been painted with red hair so often, is because she looks similar to Red Sonja.
I don't even have plans to paint anything with blonde hair any time soon, but the fact that the breadth of topics covered on this channel can be this specific and GOOD has basically turned your search bar into the wiki of mini painting for me. If I want to do something new and I'm not sure how, I search for it here first, then the rest of the internet XD Shoots, Vince!
Also the volume shading of her shoulder is incredible.
Excellent tutorial for blonde hair. Thanks for all the techniques and tricks. Appreciate your time and teaching.
Glad it was helpful!
Thus video helped me a lot! Thank you!
Thank again Vince! You are a tresure for the community! Have a great Weekend!
Just WOW!! Such great instruction. I have had to watch this three times and I still can’t process it all!! This is saved and in the can! I need to get a bust and take this one!!! I can’t express how your production quality growth has enhanced my learning experience. All I see and hear is the work!! There are absolutely no distractions!!! Amazing Vince. The True Techno Mancer!! I am also glad to see your simplistic teaching influence on Jon’s videos. Your give so much to this hobby and to me!! Blessings my friend!
Always learn a lot from your videos vince! Thanks a lot!
My pleasure!
This looked awesome straight away, it wasn't one of your 'trust me it needs to be bad to be good' video's.
It's amazing from how such a dark base, slowly you can create such a beautiful shade of blond! I used white for the final reflections, but yellow + green creates an even more beautiful reflection !!!
best blond hair tutorial I have seen. Thank you.
You are so welcome! :)
It looked good from the beginning, but those last two steps (green highlight and midtone glaze) really made it fantastic. I don't have any projects going now that have big hair, but this is definitely a video I can see myself coming back to again and again.
you are a gift - learning a lot from each HC video. Thank you!
I literally looked up your blonde hair video from a few years ago yesterday. And then you put this out today. Get out of my mind!
You are a master illusionist! The whole bust looks like it could talk to you. I had already decided to dedicate the rest of my life to painting light to a high level and you continue to show everyone what is possible. Thanks again for the time and effort you dedicate to teaching.
Thank you for the video, as always. Also, your painting of the bust is simply gorgeous!
Thanks Vince, great effect!
Glad you like it!
Great video Vince very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Great tutorial! I'm so hyped to try this myself now! You're awesome man. :)
Another fantastic tutorial!!!
This is very helpful! I'll be trying these colors shortly.
Wonderful video! I always wondered why when I was painting blonde models the color just seemed off. Now I see why.
Yes! Yes! Yes! This is right on point! I have most of these paints, my kickstarter pledge arrived yesterday with more vikings and valkyries. I'll take all the video's you want to make on her. She looks just stunning! ❤
Thank you! Ask and you shall receive, last week I asked for an updated blond hair tutorial. I should have played the lottery😉 great video!
That's a damn master piece Vince. Amazing and inspiring
Thank you for sharing. Blonde hair was always a pain for me and glad you did it on a larger figure.
No problem 😊
Nice work Vince a very helpful video. I fell into the using yellow for blond hair it never looked convincing.
Great stuff friend 👏 👍
Hey Vince, this is tremendously useful (and an eye-opener regarding common mistakes), but what I would truly want to see from you is advice on how to paint interesting BLACK hair. I imagine the principles cannot be very different, but what do you do about shadows in really dark hair? And what colors do you use to highlight it? Bluish tones or what?
Fortunately, I covered that recently - ua-cam.com/video/RlOmdduH9n4/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
I’m still in the Seraphim Sepia for blonde hair stage, but I do feel just slightly more educated still. :)
Great videa Vince, must admit since i found you i cant watch anything without looking at how the light and colour blends, anime has never been so different, thank you.
Glad I could help!
Ah, that´ll help me with my Space Wolves and their wonderful heads of hair :) thx again for tips and tricks!
Happy to help!
A superb paint job on an tremendous miniature!
Many thanks!
this is golden
This was so helpful for me. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Wow this is awesome! I love it!
Thank you so much!
Well, this will definitely take my blonde hair painting up about 100 notches! Lol
Damn that looks SO good.
Hmm, I can reverse engineer all those paints to this end out of my Vallejo collection, I think. I may try something like this on my current WIP, as it happens, so thanks for the inspiration, Vince!
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
This looks really good 👍
Can anyone please translate the colors to Vallejo? 😅
Is there a tutorial on how you painted the skin? Looks amazing!
Not this skin specifically, but I have several videos in the playlist around this on display quality skin, those are the techniques I used.
Doctor Faust's painting clinic has a blonde hair recipe I've used
Thank you again for sharing your knowledge! Do you think we’ll see updated videos about painting red/brown/gray hair/white hair in the future?
Absolutely!!
Awesome video I've been struggling to get blonde to look right on an elf model for abou a year
You can do it!
Great video! My brain hurts trying to absorb all of the info, so I'll defiantely need to re watch it.
Also, as a ginger, when do we get a tutorial? ;)
You won't have to wait too long. :)
👍👍
I still can't get over how the low-key fathomless joy you infuse into your craft. It was so bizarre to hear you grumbling about how miserable painting for Golden Demon was.
Fantastic with as always.
As always, I found myself there when in need of guidance...
But, Vince, I like my mustard haired valkyries. 😂😂
One time, i tried to paint blonde hair, and it ended up looking like non metalic metal gold. So now i have a warlock with gold hair.
That green in the highest highlights is really, really great in being the final realism touch. Thanks for sharing, Vince! I was almost expecting the deepest shadows to be darker. Do you think I'd be going wrong if I did that?
As long as it's the deepest shadows, nothing wrong with that.
I believe I finally understood how to paint detailed hair. Thank you! :)
Btw: did you convert the bust and if so, do you plan releasing a tutorial of the conversion process?
I replaced the head in her left hand with another axe. No video for that, it was just cuting and replacing, nothing complex.
Love the video! Do you have any advice for composing an armies on parade board?
I have a whole video on it - ua-cam.com/video/-UEyoM1rjjs/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
@@VinceVenturella you’re a wizard. Thank you Vince
I just wish we got to see you do that skin tone. Every brush stroke. Or airbrush stroke. How was that done?
It's a lot to explain, but its value setting with the brush and then smoothing with the airbrush, then finishing with the brush, much as in my recent skin tone video.
@@VinceVenturella Thank you. I don’t normally buy one off paints but I think I will be buying the ones from your skin video just to work through it.
Sir, you mention a Dark Brown Ochre colour in the video. What could I mix or what other paint would be equivalent of it? I was thinking that picking some rust tone would do the trick, but that’s not the case… I’ve tried googling, but my google-fu shows me only this scale75 paint, and usual brown ochre seems too light…
Generally just a yellow ochre plus a warm mid-tone brown will get you there. The deepest ochres from the new Fantatic set would also work.
❤
Really nice result Vince 👍Out of interest, how long did the hair take you to do "in real time"?
Maybe 4-5 hours.
Nice i paint this miniature in 75 mm at the moment. Do you also have a record when you did the Skin :D ?
I do not sadly, but it's mostly the same process in my skin videos over the previous weeks.
Thanks for an amazing tutorial Vince, and such a beautiful model and paint job. I have a sort of question that you can feel free to ingnore. But I am about to start painting my drukhari army, and I am going for a sort of black armor and like a malific skin tone isch using the valleyo paint set. Do you think such blond hair could work with that?
As for my black im thinking to work it up with some seagreen blue tones. But i am super open to suggestions, and thats why i ask! :D
Yep, I think that would work just fine and look pretty cool!
@@VinceVenturella thanks for the reply! ☺️
What would be some good VMC substitutes for the AKI paints here? 🤔
I couldn't say 1-1, but I think many of them have pretty close to the same names.
Could you explain the use of the pale green a little more? You said it provides an environmental color, but since it’s reflecting up, wouldn’t you use a pale blue? Thanks! (Also, her eyes are amazing!)
What does blue + yellow make? ;) (basically, the slight green infusion is the output of a blue light above interacting with the yellow tones of the hair).
thanks Vince! do you think ice yellow would be a good sub for pastel yellow?
Yes, there's very little difference between the 2. Ice yellow is a teeny tiny bit lighter but this shouldn't make any difference
@@utakuryukko2023 thanks! appreciate your response
Yep, that's fine.
Hey, unsure if this will be picked up. Would the same logic around volumes apply to a dwarf beard?
Yep, same rules apply.
Would mixing a bright lemon yellow with ivory work to create a more pastel color? If not, what would I need to mix?
Based on Vince's "Exploring Color - Yellow" video, I'd guess using a yellow-toned brown (like wood) mixed with ivory would yield better results. If you don't have that, maybe a bare hint of purple would help mute the in-your-face glare of lemon yellow.
But I'm curious if Vince has a better recommendation!
Ivory mixed into yellow ochre will hit what you want. BUt any ice yellow type color will do.
How do you know what my thoughts are lol I've just attempted blonde and it sucked so bad 😅
Her skin. My god, her skin. I’m still hoping you’ll be doing one veeeeery long video on skin alone.
Great video. where is this figure from please?
It's Northern Wind from Big Child Creative.
@@VinceVenturella thanks
anyone have advice on removing figures from bases they have been super glued to?
If it's just super glue, some time in the freezer will weaken the super glue.
Can we have a tutorial of that skin?
The orc skin is in the video, do you mean the pig skin?
Hi, wahts about the Ultramarine blonde Sm heads, they have no strukture but blond is difficult fo the Boys... Do i need the colours from these video? till now i use for blond: beige wwII, ice yellow and over it sephia contrast or agrax earth - look not that good...
You never need the exact colors I have, it's the techniques and the general tones that are important, same things will apply with the halo and the value placement.
@@VinceVenturella you are right, but no so easy to find a colour that look like cork. But if you ever make a video with all your colours and for waht you use it, will be asome. For Example you have ice yellow and use it for blond highlights like pastel yellow, and say ice yellow pastel yellow nearly the same i use and so on... hope you get waht i mean ... my english is worse ...
Painting an ork with blonde hair now just to say I did it.
Very reminiscent of non-metallic metal
Yep, a lot of similar qualities
What model is this please
Northern Wind from Big Child Creatives.
I know this vid is about hair an'all but man, that skin.
that chick is failing HUGE (pun intended) on her chest-binding.....
