    I like thr longer vids as i usually put these on when im building and or paiting. Gives me more content to listen to and i dont have to stop and find a new vid as often. So for me its a vote for longer/more detailed content!

      Pro tip for faster results. Prime the mini with a saturated dark color and then dry brush over a desaturated light color a couple steps removed on the color wheel. So base coat purple, dry brush grey, then dry brush a pastel orange or prime deep blue, dry brush grey, then dry brush a pastel yellowish green. Works wonders

    Im an old school Testors model enamel paints user myself, since childhood painting models. But Ive come to like the cheaper acrylic Apple Barrel paints myself along with some of the Americana paints also for other various colors. Along with some of the metallic flash colors from Americana or Folk Art, for the flash paint is like the chameleon color shift paint as it changes from purple, blue and green when you turn the model in different light.

    To all who care, I use Vallejo Artist Inks with GREAT success! They come in glass bottles with glass droppers. A little goes a long way and I do a 1 to 1 ratio of ink to flow aid or water. Seriously though, a little goes along way! This is 1 or 2 drops of each. Can't beat the price in the end either!!!

    You could reduce the paint wastage by using a lot less of it on the palette and using the scrubbing action to spread it over the bristles. It literally looks like you're putting more on the palette than the mini.
    AP fully acknowledge the the SP metallics only have a two layer effect instead of the three with the others; they continue to work on it.

    Thanks for the video, I’m new to speed painting and slap chop technique and I’m watching your videos to get an inspiration and learn it. Even though it’s considered a simple technique, I struggle with getting a decent result. Maybe on videos it looks better than in reality? Did you use on that mini a speed paint medium?

  • @Mr_Secondaries
    @Mr_Secondaries Рік тому

    I use a mix of citadel contrast and army painter speed paints.
    Citadel is great, but its a bit more heavy handed in color, so I thin 1:1 with contrast medium, and build up colors.

    Love the positivity and the fact that you talk more about how it makes you feel rather than some super technical stuff.
    I also like how you don't aim it to be perfect but just fun. Sometimes I watch some super complicated videos and they just make me want to stop painting 'cause I'll never understand it on that level of perfection. You, on the other hand, are just more "Hey, let's have fun togheter, don't overthink it!". That's a great message for us "normal" painters. Thanks a lot! You make me want to paint more!

    I've totally gotten into slapchop, as well.Just wondering, do you, or anyone else, have any advice on painting caucasian skintones? When you slapchop it, it always comes out too dark. Also, have you gone back to drybrushing gray and white? Last video, I think you said you just drybrushed white. Do you think it makes a big difference?

    • @RustySpoon
      @RustySpoon Рік тому +1

      Try using warmer colours other than black and grey.
      Dark brown prime, zandri dust and white would give a bit more saturation

    • @wandererchronicles

      What they said, but also, just go back after your drybrush, before your paint, and put down a thin layer of white or a skin tone with regular acrylic paint.

I typically do a zenith highlight with my airbrush primers for speed purposes, but on occasion I’ve done slapchop. Still can’t decide on a good skin color for my Orks though. Ghillie Dew or Malignant Green 🤔

    Fantastic video as always, I think you have become my go-to channel for speedpaint inspiration above Watch it Paint it (mostly because you use slap chop and he doesn't, although I love his videos too!). You really seem to have mastered your slap chop drybrushing, the finish in this video is so smooth and neat! Also thank you for putting a shot of how it looks drybrushed grey before you show the white layer, it helps as a comparative guide.
    I noticed in a previous video of yours on tips for slap chop, that you suggest to thin the speedpaint with medium, but I don't seem to see you do that in any of your actual painting videos? Do you actually thin your speedpaints?
    I would love to see an episode dedicated to painting metals (but using regular slap chop, not metallic dry brushing like you already posted), including painting coloured metals (like a blue sci-fi rifle on a non-robot mini), as well as tips on making different effect on different metals (bronze, silver, copper, brass, rust, dirt, verdigris, etc...), and also showing which colours you use to highlight your metallics. Not a big list... 😁
    Thanks for such great content, this video format is my favourite, and oh, the index of all the colours used is AWESOME!! 🤙🤙🤙
