Citadel Paint pot holder opener for the win…found the stl, printing it after holiday!

i feel you breath in my heart

[@BlueDragonCustoms]

This was very educational but the darth vader breathing caused me to doze off a few times

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

lol none of us are in this hobby because we are like outside or moving around activities

[@clementramon8589]

Thank you. Very helpful. No more guess work. No more thick cartoon looking skin.

[@Alway213]

Thank you for imparting your knowledge on this subject, I’m very new to this and found it extremely helpful.

[@bubarules]

thanks for that, I felt like I was watching michael myers painting!

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

Love that! lol maybe the next tutorial we will try another impression

[@shanecornish3451]

Nice painting technique. Nice panting as well

[@That1ThatHasIt]

The paint on one of my 1/6 figure's nose is chipped a little so really wanting to get it fixed. Nice video🤙

[@asfan]

This has been a huge help to me, I don’t have the same paints as you but have improvised with some decent results. Thank you for posting this video:)

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

Great to hear! lots more to come

Great Job on the Video,Looking foward to more.

Real good video I love it good worke mike ❤

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Flomega-]

Awesome painting job on a sooo cool print

[@funny3272]

Did you use a Gray Primer before painting??

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

yes i did

[@dadoffour]

Great tutorial thanks for sharing mate

[@creativeleigh7462]

Discovered your channel... Great stuff... how the devil did you get that quality out of fdm... I'm blown away... thought it was resin.

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

tuning the printer step by step every time a print finishes just tweaking it till your happy

[@jakelikeschicken]

Found you here on KZbin great video looking forward to be painting figures and so on thanks for the tips will help a lot! :)

[@paolotelesio2943]

Ottimo..complimenti

[@andrewtaylor2369]

Thanks for showing us how not to do it correctly

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

this is a tutorial for beginners and suppose to be one step above just doing a flat tone on skin

[@EmilBlueMan]

Cool! Very good video, cause I just bought some good paints to paint my sculptures.

[@waltervangorden5671]

hi. what size is this?? very nice work

[@danm620]

Awesome thankyou

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

You’re welcome 😊

[@TucktuksTrinketsandTerrain]

good stuff

[@Thornspyre81]

Looks like Leonardo DiCaprio before it was painted.

[@Pandathecutiest]

Is it enough that I do like that and without putting washes like sideshow painting?

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

I’m not a fan of washes on skin tone

[@lexispapi]

Awesome tutorial!!!! What colors would you use for dark skin. I have a Michael Jordan head I need to paint. Thanks!

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

honest answer is we haven't painted alot of darker flesh tones but its a whole another video as they are harder to paint and its a different technique the real trick with them is not making the look super offensive, hence why we haven't done a video yet lol

[@Laerun]

Jandice DiCaprio, nice

[@catboxcleaners]

nice tutorial, btw that thing you put those paint bottles in (that keeps the cap open) is that a 3d print ? and ifso where can I find that stl?

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

i downloaded it from thingiverse a few years ago theres loads on there

[@catboxcleaners]

Thanks, found it

[@corkcamden9878]

You didn't really drybrush the lightest tone thoroughly. The skin around the chin and mouth look like ol' Leonardo has dry, flaky skin. Might just be the texture of the bust. Still, I liked your explanation and that is very informative.

[@dadsfreetimeclassicgaming1220]

Lol painting with Darth Vader. "shhhhhh hoooooooh Shhhhhh hoooooh try not to force it shhhhhhhh hoooooh"

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

our microphones have got better since this lol the ones we had were in the wrong place and they picked up everything except our pulse

[@ericcxxxx]

links for the paints pz

[@earlyculyer4103]

I have never painted a model before. thanks for the tip! I have a small motorcycle rider, that I need to paint 1/8 size motorcycle and rider so I need very little paint for the rider just arms and face, could you give me the links to the paint you use or should I just go with to Tamiya flesh color paint? I might have one or two other projects that I need very little flash paint. What is the three you use? could you put links in description?

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

so we normally use the flesh tone kit from greenstuffwolrd but vallejo or citadel do similar kits

[@nicolasjungblut7874]

Great video, I am trying to improve my skin paint so thank you very much. Now my question is: I cannot find those paints, so I need to find replacement colours. Those name are very brand specific....do you have any suggestion how those would be called as regular colours (ochre or something like that)?

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

So those are citadel paints from games workshop I’m not sure what they would be in other brands

[@thoth8349]

I have no idea how KZbin comments work, but hopefully you can get this. I'm no painting pro, but as simple colors I'd say Bugmans is a red-toned tan/light-brown, and the other two are just whiter variants of that. If you have a tan-flesh color paint and a white paint, lay down a dot of each on a wet pallete separate from each other and pull/mix them together for a gradient you should be able to get this same colors through there. Maybe add a little bit of yellow in the middle but depending on your tan it may be close enough. For me I can start with any brown or white to get to a skin color, but the reds and yellows in between seem to make the biggest difference. Using the gradient method I mentioned has given me the most success since I don't have to think too hard on "in-between" stages for layers. Hope this helps some, and sorry for the long reply.

Eddie Hall, is that you speaking?

Bro breathe with your mouth closed 😂

[@Steve-dr7rr]

Hi are theses all self printed resin busts and can you use other colours if you haven’t got the citadel

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

These are fdm printed and yes you can substitute colours

[@Steve-dr7rr]

@@honeybadger3dprintandpaint ok thanks don’t know all the terms Yet so no idea what fdm stands for but thanks for getting back to me. I brought a bust it’s in purple resin would you use black primer on it thanks again

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

Black is a good primer these were printed on a standard 3d printer using filament

[@josegarvelaz7788]

Buen video gracias por compartir. Sólo es desesperante escuchar tu respiración tan fuerte y muy cerca del micrófono.

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

we know we have changed our microphones since this video so try and get better quality, unfortunately there isnt anything we can do on this video

[@catlady8324]

Does this have subtitles to translate into regular American language?

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

just replace every 3rd word with yeehaw and you will be fine

[@danm620]

Hey man.I painted my model with exact same paints as yours but my bugmans glow made my model dark brown complete different colour from yours?

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

Are you sure it was mixed properly

[@danm620]

@@honeybadger3dprintandpaint mixed with what?

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

Just make sure the pot is thoroughly mixed as citadel paint can separate or start to dry up

[@danm620]

@@honeybadger3dprintandpaint ok now worries I’ll try that later after I sand him down. Also have you any videos of adding rosey cheeks into a model?thanks

lol other than not being a power lifter im exactly like eddie hall in everyway

[@Notfritenite]

Bro it's so chalky looking tho.

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

the video is quite old now and our painting has advance but to combat the chalkyness you could just apply a matt varnish

[@JohnSmith-rt5yq]

Looks a little... yellow? Like maybe he sat in the sun too long or something

[@patriciaann4391]

awesome video! how would you paint a beard or stubble on the face?

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

previously ive used a very light grey that i water down alot so its almost grey water then add to face then get your smallest brush and add tiny dots of greys for stubble

[@chrisoshea4636]

Hold your breath ya mouth breather

[@zkfo6969]

that looks rough and scratchy as hell

[@honeybadger3dprintandpaint]

this is a technique for beginners, its a quick and dirty way to get an ok flesh tone for people starting out, i get that you can do better but that isnt want this video is about

[@leor8981]

Couldn't agree more....judging by his reply it struck a nerve too 😏 Even for a quick easy way this wouldn't begin to look good. Beginners using this method may as well throw the sculpt in the trash after they've finished this tutorial 😂
