definitely going to use this rust effect for units like graveguard, wight king, sepulchral guard, and the black knights because they're more elite and would have better access to armor and weapons whereas the Deathrattle skeletons would get the verdigris effect to show that they are ancient and only had access to stuff like bronze weaponry and armor.
Amazing work, I have two ballistamines that are going to be in an abandoned fortress within the swamps, the only feature left to add is rust. The blue armor in the end look neat I could imagine it being an enchanted item. not only does the rust show the toll of time, but the very essence of arcane magic seeping through the steel.
Yeah nothings tricky with these ones. Biggest challenge is probably making sure you don’t have too much on the brush as all the mixes are quite dilute.
In general, I don't want my models to look rusty, but you did a fantastic job that makes me want to break my norm. I was thinking rust should be much more matte, then you brought that up. I haven't worked with pigments before, but that looked very worth my trying.
It's one of those things that is great for exploring new products and techniques with. If you don't fancy it on a mini then maybe have a play around with a bit of scenery?
I was looking over at my half-finished Death Guard and wondering if I could be bothered or not. As if by divine providence, I looked back at the monitor and this video was in my feed. Nice. Time to bust out the brushes!
Borrowed that Agrax / Gryph-hound mix for my Orlock's corroded armour. Was brilliant, though went 3:1 to reduce the orange tones a bit. Works really nicely.
have 41 models to paint with rusty stuff but im gonna do it, this just looks so awesome. mine wont look as good as i dont even have nearly enough paints but i will try it
So this is a weird question but if a model you want to apply rust to had more than one type of metal, say iron/steel and copper/bronze, in these cases with multiple forms of rust how would you paint borders, how would the corrosion colors layer.
Thanks again for another fantastic video, i have a problem though deciding on either technique. I have a few d&d resin models with armor that i wanna use this effect on and i wanted to buy materials for one of those techniques. Would you either prefer the pigments / isapropanol mix or the oil paints / minerals mix?
Brilliant!! Only qualm I have is that the picture of the rusted mini at the end is kinda dark..hard to notice the details, at least on screen. Other than that, LOVE how simple and easy it is to do this!
I don't know what I'm doing wrong but everytime I have used oil paints they turn out SUUUUPER GLOSSY... Its the reason I don't use them? How do you get a Matt result? ( I have the same problem with enamels as well.
Have you leeched off the oil from your oil paint? I'm not sure if it'll help if you let oil paint on an absorbent material (eg. tissue or paper towel, or even cardboard, really) for longer periods of time. Other way to keep your oil matte is probably just use a hair dryer to dry them, or just cover your work with matte varnish.
How long dos it take for a layer of oil paint to dry, like what time was between the burnt sienna and the faded dark yellow layers, if its not dry than the layers will mix together? Thx love the vids :)
That will depend on your oil paints. W&N Alkyd and Abteilung 502 dry quicker as they have less oil in them so are generally more useful for our hobby. For this particular example I hit it with a hairdryer for a minute or two, and when it was touch dry I carried on with the lighter colour. If the mix slightly reactivated the previous colour it didn't really matter for this process.

Fantastic tutorial covering oils, acrylics and contrasts ... and the skelly-bobs look great!
Glad you like them!
Thanks so much for this video mate! Picked up the paints today - can't wait to get started!
I'm about to start painting a load of corrupted Nurgle titans for Adeptus Titanicus, these tutorials are amazing and I can't wait to try them out!
Really looking forward to giving this a go - literally started looking for refs when I finished. Cheers for the tips dude x

Would love to see a similar video where you experiment with Dirt Down rust. As a lover of weathering, it should be right up your alley.
So awesome 🤘🏻absolutely loving this series
Good to hear!
Looks sick! And all with relatively easy techniques
Yeah nothings tricky with these ones. Biggest challenge is probably making sure you don’t have too much on the brush as all the mixes are quite dilute.
Fantastic video. Many thanks for the tutorial using different techniques. So many new ideas to try 😇
Have fun!
Loved it mate thanks!

Excellent recipe! Cheers Henry. :D

The Ruinous Powers wills it!
Just thinking the exact same thing
Such a well presented vid. Great stuff dude!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks Cult of Paint! Great tutorial on rust effects.
Glad you like it!
Very nice rust effect! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks!
This channel is perfection.
Woohoo!
Wonderful tutorial, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
hmm human music, i like it!
Perfect for my death guard Henry, going to try it on a blight drone
Nice! Give us a tag in the results, would love to see.
Amazing!
Thanks!
Thanks so much for this
No problem!
"Hey now, Hey now now, sing..."
That's actually really cool, if you created an undead wargaming army, you could denote different squads by the type of rust they have.
That’s a fun idea

NIce one, I'm really enjoying mixing contrasts and agrax for different things
Time to use these on my warcry warband
I did wonder when i saw you post earlier!
Time to paint my orks all rusty
WAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!
Love the look of this, teasing us while you make your iron warriirs tutorial right 😉
Did a marine, scrapped it, thinking I’ll do it on a termie instead.
@@cultofpaint can't wait 😆
This is brilliant , can you do a tutorial on how youd paint weathered cloth ?
Great suggestion!
have 41 models to paint with rusty stuff but im gonna do it, this just looks so awesome. mine wont look as good as i dont even have nearly enough paints but i will try it
Good luck!
@@cultofpaint thanks man, awesome tutorial btw
Yeeees
OOOH rust!
Fantastic video, thank you! What's that syringe you're using to move washes and contrast paints around? Looks very useful
Just a plastic pipette, you can order them in bags of 100 or so
Perfect guide for painting Turnip28 miniatures!
Yes!!
Excellent tutorial. Have you tried using Dirty Down Rust (by Goblin's Hut I think)?
Yeah it’s fine. Gives you a different look to this though
Hey, can you turn the light level down more at the end? I was almost able to make out the results.
Nice video!
Could you swap the aggrax earth shade with a dark brown contrast paint, or would the pooling work differently?
You absolutely could, it would be fine. I might water it down a little more.
So this is a weird question but if a model you want to apply rust to had more than one type of metal, say iron/steel and copper/bronze, in these cases with multiple forms of rust how would you paint borders, how would the corrosion colors layer.

Oils. Much more versatile.
@@cultofpaint also, in this case would you do the rust effect before you painted the bones (or anything else really) or after applying the rust?
Brilliant!! Only qualm I have is that the picture of the rusted mini at the end is kinda dark..hard to notice the details, at least on screen. Other than that, LOVE how simple and easy it is to do this!
Noted, thanks!
I actually wanted to know how to get it rusted and dark like that!
How long to leave the acrylics to dry before you start the oils and white spirits? Do you need to varnish in between the layers?
No need to varnish. And touch dry is fine.
Froim wich brand/company is thi skeleton?

I don't understand how the black out makes everything else so much more subdued
lighting in the photo is different to when filming.
Is it okay to paint acrylic highlights over oils like that?
Yes, as long as it is dry.
Yummy rusty goodness
Delicious

Early
nice but i dont like this step with the oilpaints, iam not sure this is the best step for bringing some effect 🤔
Finished result look heavy edited compared to the miniature in the video.
Different lighting on stills vs video. Something we're working hard to improve.
