for doing paint by yourself, and for how difficult detailing can be, all of the figures look amazing; along with the added effect of you doing it yourself. i have a halo battle rifle i don’t want to ruin but want to paint nerf colorway, this video is a good teacher to me! thank you and keep up the great work! [edit]: THE best subscribe reminder i have ever seen on here. subscribing off that alone.

[@ProtoPropski]

Honestly that was a very simple, but effective tutorial. I'm confident in trying this myself, just ordered an Ender 3 V2 my first 3D Printer, so I'm excited to make figures, already looked into every method for smoothing, this was that final step to prep me for the road ahead. I hope to make a decent hobby out of it

Thanks...... it’s highly highly addictive! I didn’t think I would get that into it.

[@CrazyWillTechShow]

Thanks I really appreciate it. Yeah went back and tried regular acrylic paints still don’t like them as much as Vallejo. I don’t know what they do but they’re awesome and so much easier to paint with. Me and my wife did Christmas ornaments you can see here How to paint 3-D printed ornaments kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmS6c4uAetCibZI

[@sensible3d406]

Two tips i can give about the finish; when you do a wash, its meant for accenting shadows and crevices, so go back over with your base colors again and hit the entire model (not just highlights). then you can go back with a lighter base color and highlight like he did. lastly, get some quality clear coat. rustoleum is AWESOME for priming but lacks with everything else. You can see the "Matte" clear coat ended up glossy. Not even satin. GLOSSY. two things can cause this, too thick and clear coast that isn't worth its weight. I recommend Tamiya TS-80 Flat clear; it is a small can but goes very far and you only need 1 coat for stuff like this that sits on shelves. Its a varnish and is meant to keep your colors safe. if youre using it for functional stuff or things touched often or in the sun, 2-3 coats wont hurt. and when you "mist" like this gentleman, actually MIST. don't mist, then mist, then spray, then mist, then spray. Coat goes on too thick. lol

[@TheSketchyEddie]

Going back over with the base color doesnt full cover the wash? Just wanna make sure I understand that right. Getting ready for my first paint

Commenting before I watch the video , hoping to use this on a figure that I ordered , it’s fine , but it has some gaps , some chipping. I don’t own a 3D printer and it’s my first time ever dealing with something like this so I’ll edit this with some questions hoping to be answered or some tips , basically it’s a among us figure with a detachable body , I’m hoping to paint it , and do the things we’re you coat it with a clear layer and it protects the stuff , but before all of that I’m hoping I can use a nail filer to sand it down?? I have no idea what I’m doing and I’m kinda scared to mess with it cause i don’t know what I’m doing. Edit one: 2:20 Ok question , should I use a primer for my figure? It uses colored filament and I’m planning to paint shading and paint the visor as it’s blank. Also there’s the most gaps where the visor and the body connect but it’s secure for the most part , the ears are so rough and shedding I’m thinking of just sanding the texture completely cause it’s irritating Another question , is painting by hand with just any paint good? I don’t mean like dollar store , but I mean does the brand matter , is there a brush I should use? What kind of stuff should I be using to keep the paint from scraping off , kinda how I mentioned in the first question, I think it’s called varnish but I mean either the stuff you brush on or spray paint whatever , I don’t own any so either way I’d have to buy some so

[@CrazyWillTechShow]

I would practice on something else before going I had and painting your model. Is it resin or filament print?

[@Graeme758]

Nice work, thanks for sharing. Have you ever tried using Duplicolor Adhesion Promoter as a basecoat under your primer (guess you can even apply acrylic paints right on top of it too)?

Good job man, if you prime in white you will find the colours will pop more, also when doing the highlights try dry brushing, its much easier and the results are much better as you get a great transition through the shades that look more airbrushed than brushed.

You need to give the paint something to stick to prints, are very smooth and don’t hold the paint.

[@bkoetter42]

Really cool video. I also find a great detail video to help pop detail is to dry-brush your highlights. Essentially the opposite of a wash, but instead of soaking your model with a watered down brush, you pat the brush until almost dry and then lightly pass over the model. where a wash seeps into the crevices, dry-brushing only kisses the peaks. combining the two really makes details pop.

[@CrazyWillTechShow]

[@bkoetter42]

@@CrazyWillTechShow I actually picked up on dry-brushing pretty quickly when I did more painting. Getting back into models and painting again after a few years. If memory serves, the Stan Winston School had some really great courses that would cover it, which lead to some real "ah ha" moments. Can't remember which ones exactly, but they are almost all a joy to watch back when I had a subscription. I think the big thing is getting used to how much to pat the brush dry, and then just getting the feel for letting the tips of said brush gently glide over the surface. I would say start with a super dry brush, where you almost think there isn't much paint on it at all, and then barely touching the model. It's a real "less is more" technique.

[@CrazyWillTechShow]

Best explanation I’ve heard so far. Most people like use a dry brush. I’m like 🤷‍♂️.

May have misunderstood you early in your video. I thought you said you used thinned/transparent acrylic paints over the Testors to accomplish some shading on Superman's face. For the record, enamels and other oil/solvent based paints, such as the Testors, can be applied over acrylics but acrylics should not be applied on enamels. It will flake off over time.

Like I said in the video I’m no expert but did clear coat over it after I was done.

I've never been good at painting, especially the shadows. Getting a printer soon, video encouraged me.

That is so awesome man! Thanks for the compliment… you’re gonna love getting into this hobby… so addictive!

Is this permanently painted? Orr washable?

[@CrazyWillTechShow]

Once you clearcoat it it’s permanent

Really helpful video, but should I skip the spray painting part if I’m using gray resin

No you need the primer helps to make the paint stick and paint shows up better. If your using light color use White primer.
