Yes finally an OSL that makes the whole technique seem attainable. This is something I have tried a few times and it never quite turns out but I'm excited to try these tips.

Love that you did a video on subtle osl. Whilst big osl can look cool when done really well I think it can sometimes detract. This was really helpful.

@richardc3859 3 ай бұрын

I was literally trying to find an osl video the other night. Wasnt happy with what i was finding (too much theory not enough practice). I was so happy to find this on my subscription feed the next morning and it did not disappoint! Thank you again so much Henry!

I was wondering, there’s a scheme I can’t find nowhere on KZbin for the Aeldari Altansar. The scheme and color choices are pretty unique, especially for the farseer, and I would love to see your take on it, if it’s something you would be interested in trying.

@cultofpaint 3 ай бұрын

its a great scheme. I did a very similar one on some Dark Eldar ages ago, might be worth a search.

Wonderful video! What blue contrast paints would you use in this technique to achieve a blue plasma look?

@Wijkert 3 ай бұрын

If you want some extra punch from a fluorescent paint, but don't like the tacky colors they com in, you can glaze over them with the color you do like. The fluorescent will be a little weaker, but still quite noticeable. I am looking for enough opacity so that I get the color I am looking for, but not su much that the punch from the fluorescent is mostly gone. Interesting but rewarding balance to achieve.

@timooster280 3 ай бұрын

The use of contrast paint here to achieve the effect is really interesting. I'm really surprised how well you can paint with contrast over straight black. I think the thing that's really missing from the video, which I see many people struggling with concerning OSL, is a bit hidden by working over black, though. Many people will paint a mini first and then try to add an OSL effect later. Those people will not work over black, and that often means that the "light" color they are adding actually makes that area darker than before. To make a thing like this work you have to plan ahead a bit before you start painting and leave the areas that will be lit by the OSL dark enough. You mention at the end that people should not worry too much about light theory and so on. But not thinking about it at all will lead to results that don't work as well as what you're showing here, even if they follow what you did exactly on their mini.

@@timooster280 what I've shown here really will work just fine over other colours. I've done exactly this on multiple painted minis. It's not perfect, but it's not meant to be. It's a start.

Hi Henry! is there a chance we'll see Repentia/Arco-flagellants in the near future? I am just getting into Sisters and saw your video on them from a while ago. Surprisingly there are very few videos about painting the Repentia/Arco's. I've been kinda avoiding them as I haven't found a tutorial I've liked yet!

Hey Henry, I have a little question about my tremor. Can you give me some advice on how to paint with my tremor.

@Sigh_Bold 3 ай бұрын

I have heard using rubber bands can help as it steadies the unwanted movements by restricting you. Something like having a band around your wrist and connecting it to the brush handle but I don't have experience using that myself.
