Your dry brush skills are really nice. I’m learning a lot on how far you can take this. Thanks for adding more to the skill set.

[@ArtisOpus]

Thanks so much, dude, we'll keep 'em coming!

[@spec2k5]

I would really appreciate a tutorial on osl effects. I could imagine they look great with stippling/drybrushing

[@ArtisOpus]

Coming very soon!

[@Northwoodslures]

@@ArtisOpus ohhhhh nice. Can't wait.

[@Mtelles1]

That's really good yellow! Thank you for the video

[@ArtisOpus]

And thanks for the comment Mario😊 Super pleased you're enjoying our content.

[@darrentansley4567]

I'm going to try this out on the floor of my drop pod doors. Had this model for 8 years and could never face painting it until @artisopus came along!

[@ArtisOpus]

Amazing, should look awesome dude, they've got such nice texture!

[@hawvius7543]

Thats a great yellow, keep on the great work!

[@ArtisOpus]

Thanks so much mate, will do! Hope you keep watching too😁

[@patrickbateman69420]

I've just ordered a small and large series D brush from you guys - never played with this method but really keen to try it out. Looking forward to seeing more tutorials like this.

[@ArtisOpus]

Amazing, we'll keep them coming! I hope they serve you well :)

[@Norseraider84]

As always, your videos are inspiring and great to watch. Thank you very much for your hard work ! 🤘🏻😊

[@ArtisOpus]

My pleasure dude, you're most welcome, we'll do our best to keep inspiring you!

Loving these videos, and have bought the whole range as a direct result. Keep up the great work!

[@ArtisOpus]

Hi Brandon, thank you so much for your purchases! We hope they serve you well while you follow along, we've got plenty of exciting future content planned, nice to have you along for the ride!

[@andrewpalka5810]

This was awesome! It would be neat to see this (on something smaller) combined with glazing for an even smoother, uniform transition. Might give it a try myself when my brushes come in!

[@ArtisOpus]

Thanks for the support Andrew🤩 That would be cool, great suggestion, it just got added to the list! Hope you enjoy your new brushes🥰

[@draadhaai]

2:56 ...I don't think I've got that paint. Very nice tutorial though! Simple techniques but I'm often suprised by the good looking result!

[@ArtisOpus]

Facepalm, luckily that paint is 'any white you like :)'. Thanks so much dude, stay tuned for more!

[@Northwoodslures]

You've literally completely changed the game for me when it comes to my painting approach. Building up a massive Space Wolves army, and I will be applying so many of the techniques I've picked up from you to paint up my army. Your "Let's Get Chilly" tutorial was a breakthrough for me. I will be applying exactly those same methods for painting Ragnar Blackmane, Haldor Icepelt, my Rune and Iron Priests, my tanks, dreadnoughts, Drop Pod, etc. Just picked up three of these Reaper Bones shipping containers today. About to start painting them, but I want to go for a different color, maybe industrial orange....would this same method apply? Starting with warm brown tones at the bottom, and working up to muted orage colors followed by some brighter orange-ish highlights? I would so much appreciate hearing back from you on this. Thanks in advance brother. Much love. You do great work, inspiring and extremely helpful.

[@ArtisOpus]

Hey dude, wow, thank you so much for the kind words, that's absolutely awesome, so glad you're finding things useful :). 100% - Purple and warm orange brown through orange to yellow highlights would be perfect, you can go with any base colour really depending on what you want to achieve... a lot of what I do starts cool and finished warmer though, big love

[@Northwoodslures]

@@ArtisOpus man, thank you so much. With the amount of content you're producing and the amount of comments on your videos I am flattered and impressed that you take the time to respond to inquiries like mine. Your videos benefit us passionate painters more than you know! As always, thank you for sharing your skills, talent and techniques with the world. It does not go unappreciated! Much love!

[@ArtisOpus]

What do you all think of the tutorial? We would love for you all to have a go and share it with us?

4:04 still stickin with the Big D eh?? lol Great video! love to see all these drybrushing techniques

[@ArtisOpus]

Always! The power of a bigger brush is never to be underestimated, especially on subtle work :).

[@jmc7034]

Now I’ve watched a few vids I must give it a go

[@ArtisOpus]

Agreed dude, go for it!🦾 Would love to see your work, did you tag us on social media?

[@jmc7034]

Artis Opus alas I’m not on social media. Would get myself into too much trouble 😉😂

[@jmc7034]

and I would really like the brush set D first. Must get some overtime in tho 😭

[@supegdaking]

Love your videos and bought some brushes (still in the mail) wondering, I am more into D&D, are you able to do some D&D tutorials say like dragon wings?

[@ArtisOpus]

Many thanks mate! Did you already get your brushes? Hope they serve you well! We will be absolutely doing this, literally painting some modular dungeon terrain in the near future😊

[@aegrisomnia]

2:55 lol 😂

[@ArtisOpus]

Oldie but a Goldie :)

[@ffoeg]

another great tutorial.

[@ArtisOpus]

Thanks Geoff, appreciate the kind words and subscription, mate :)

[@MikeSiggins]

A variant of chiaroscuro. Nice results.

[@ArtisOpus]

Well, this is the most fancy I could possibly be made to feel after painting miniatures, cheers dude! It is all about the 'lighting'!

[@katulee1911]

Who is better you guys or cult of paint?

[@ArtisOpus]

Andy has bigger guns :)

[@stuartwalker9597]

Would love to see a tutorial for the new elves from gw that are coming out 😉

[@ArtisOpus]

Noted!

[@wellard32]

Great video, would this work for vehicle panels? Mainly thinking imperial fist tanks?

[@ArtisOpus]

Absolutely! Exactly the same colours and concepts, you could do a smaller proportion in the darker colours if you wanted a higher % to be true yellow :)

[@wellard32]

Artis Opus awesome thank you, been looking for a better concept for my fists!

[@johnathankonandreas6074]

This is next level drybrushing. What is the material in that glass container?

[@ArtisOpus]

store.artis-opus.com/collections/series-d-drybrushing It's our 'Dampening Pad' - which can be found in the store, and is also part of the Series D Drybrush Set

[@johnathankonandreas6074]

I've never seen a dampening pad. Gonna have to pick one up from your store!

[@nicolasautret6050]

Hi there, I just watched the azyrite ruin video where you paint the building in green tones. I’m considering painting 40K buildings in yellow following this video color guide. I was wondering how you approach multi floors buildings. Would you highlight a 3 floors structure as one element, or as 3 independent horizontal panels? I’m afraid that making it a unique structure would make the lower part very dark. Thanks beforehand! ( and still hoping the red scorpions tutorial..;) ) Nicolas

[@ArtisOpus]

Hey dude, I'd take an overall top to bottom approach, you can also add some dusting in corners and recesses/toward the bottom, which looks amazing with 40k stuff :)

[@ArtisOpus]

(the weathering is a great way to avoid the bottom being too dark, and add interest)

[@nicolasautret6050]

Thanks for the great comments!

[@af601glock7]

You do realize you painted the model downside up? Still, excellent work.

[@ArtisOpus]

Oops, hope not🙄 Cheers for the support!

[@timesup5105]

Do you have dry brushes like this for smaller details like 32MM guns? I like to dry brush the guns and have to stay tight.

[@ArtisOpus]

Depends on the size of them our medium and small are predominantly what I use at that stage, with the XS for smudging and detailing. :)

[@johnathankonandreas6074]

what does he dunk his brush into?

Bizarely no links work for me.

Ah, sorry to hear that. Don't hesitate to ask for any link/item in particular, I'd be glad to help you find them online😊

Whom makes that container? reaper bone?

[@ArtisOpus]

Yeah: elementgames.co.uk/wargames-and-miniatures/fantasy-miniatures-games/reaper-bones/shipping-container

[@Jkos1980]

@@ArtisOpus Thanks, that what I thought, it was the reaper bone one :)

[@lincoln87b]

You should really call it "dampbrushing" :)

[@ArtisOpus]

If only we'd got there first, we would have ^_^.

[@ShadowDrakken]

He does more stippling than actual drybrushing in all his videos anyway. But yeah, this isn't what most people would call drybrushing. That said, you can't deny the results! :D
