How to Paint Wood FAST: 3 ways - Contrast, Drybrush, Wash/Shade

[@Wolfgar-jx5kl]

It’s great that you use dry brushing so much in your painting . It’s a great technique that I don’t see used as much anymore. Everyone seems to be all about glazes glazes and more glazes these days . Not everyone has time for such and dry brushing is a fast easy technique that has proven great looking results for decades . Keep by the great tutorials sir !

The comment about 50/50 not always being 50/50 really helped me. Thanks for sharing and please stay safe.

[@michaelscott9142]

Hands down, you have the best videos on painting minis etc online. Great content. It's unreal

[@ArtisOpus]

Thanks a ton for your kind words, dude, much appreciated!🤩

[@funky_features51]

Please never stop posting! Love your videos

[@ArtisOpus]

Thank you! Keep watching and we'll keep painting👨‍🎨😊

[@archfrank]

Double commenting to say that I've watched most of your recent vids on multiple ways to paint different elements, noted the recipes, ordered myself a textured palette, and I am ready to give your method a shot on a few minis. Really loving your approach and I hope I can do it justice :D

[@ArtisOpus]

Awesome, buddy, many thanks for your kind words and support! Practice, practice, practice😊👨‍🎨🤞

[@MentoliptusBanko]

Super nice results. This is easy on textured surfaces...but I am currently trying to paint (freehand?) a wood texture on a flat shield and spear. Wish me luck. And thanks for the tips for the colours.

[@joanjlopezrondoni8273]

I think using a dark green instead of Incubi Darkness as wash would look also good, giving a mossy/rotten wood effect, plus a soft drybush with a ligther green on the washed area.

[@allansmith5236]

Those shields are awesome!!!!!

[@ArtisOpus]

Have you tried to paint them too?😊

[@allansmith5236]

@@ArtisOpus Can’t say I’ve even seen them before lol. I’m one of many who have just started to dabble in these figures since lockdown, so haven’t seen all that is on offer.

[@rhinoxrifter356]

I love your vids! I learn a metric tonne every time.

[@ArtisOpus]

Amazing to hear, that's the aim! Thanks so much for watching!🤩

[@GandalfGreyPill]

awesome, gonna reference this video a ton when i star painting my sylvaneth! thanks man!

[@Ed-xo9pc]

Really happy I found your channel. Content is always fun and relaxing to watch too

[@ArtisOpus]

Glad to hear it! Thanks for the support!😊

[@drbeats3]

This is my new favorite channel!

[@paulmurphy7087]

Likewise. Awesome content!

[@tonyharwood8408]

Another great tutorial - thank you. Tony

[@S2uBuGaming]

Excellent video again Byron. Loved the textures and really glad you added the eyes as well haha. As always an easy to follow tutorial that shows simple but super effective skills. Keep up the great work!

[@andyballingall1104]

Another great Video! Would be great to see some beastmen fur videos- also a Pink centric tutorial 🙏🏻

[@archfrank]

Beautiful work! Really inspiring to get into drybrushing more seriously and use it to its fullest potential

[@sunbags]

Watching this to get some inspiration for potentially painting sylvaneth. Hoping to see a video on that!

[@Vanye111]

Great tutorial as always, thank you very much.

[@d.gorkamorka7367]

Great video I can almost smell the green skin tutorial for my bonesplitterz army

[@Telionuk]

Would love a video on your go to paints for colours and the reasoning behind said selections. EG your go to paints for Reds, Blues, Greens, Blacks ect.

[@daves4828]

Another great video. A pine or blackbutt type coloured wood would have been nice addition too

[@jackcopestake9948]

Fantastic stuff! Would love a video on bases stuff like stone or marble which hardly anyone covers!

[@NeoNaiche]

Such great videos! - Could you do a video to talk about tactics or techniques for batch painting a group of figures at a time?

[@ramza813]

YES!!! I thought it was only me with Lupercal Green being a base paint and it stinks! Great color though!

[@sigpi222]

These videos are amazing ads. I've now bought 3 series D brushes because of them

[@ArtisOpus]

Oh, awesome, thanks so much for your support, buddy! Hope the D's serve you well😊👨‍🎨

[@kylebabbage2315]

Evening. Bought some series D and used your videos and making great progress. I love the classic Legion if the Damned. I've tried using pin washes with yellows and oranges which was okay and tried dry brushing blacks over yellows and oranges. Anything tips you have would be appreciated.

[@sigpi222]

This would also be super helpful for an Avatar of Khaine for Craftworld Eldar ... supposed to be molten skin..

[@jon-from-tx]

I like the sweater!

[@ArtisOpus]

😁😁Still Christmas time for me🤭

[@bizgigj820]

Seeling you do a quick tutorial on heat bloom on different base metal colours would be really interesting

[@simonleach6632]

This is really good stuff, much appreciated, but if possible could we see a wood part 2 video about making something non-textured look as though it has a wood grain? Easy done with oils but I don't know a simple way to do it quickly without using oils and waiting 2-3 days to fully dry

[@alanmorales5784]

Hey mate, could you please make a video on painting different types of stone, I’m looking for a nice spooky color to paint my graveyard mausoleum, and I was hoping you could come up with some cool ideas. Thanks again keep up the wonderful job

[@ArtisOpus]

Hey dude, check out our Spooky Basing tutorial. These are the exact colours I'd recommend or close and they'll work just as well for scenery as they did on the base😊

[@doczoff5655]

Fantastic video! Have you experimented texture painting over real wood? Scrubbing balsa with your stiff nylon clean-up brush might create a really interesting woodgrain texture.

[@ArtisOpus]

Thanks Doc, I actually have, *exactly* this technique is what I used to make my converted soulscream bridge model for my order army, and it came out really really nicely, stiff nylon brush is an unsung hobby hero

[@alexandremendes5763]

Very Very Nice. 🇧🇷

[@ArtisOpus]

Many many thanks😁

[@ger5956]

Awesome results as always B! Never thought of doing wood different colours, as stupid as that sounds 🤦🏻‍♂️🤣 Definitely going to be giving some of these tips a go! Thanks very much for all your work, you really help me and I’m sure plenty of others 😁👍🏼

[@WithinWicked]

Love it. So when are we having a video on imitating texture ? :D

[@franekwrobel1449]

What’s called that thing he uses for moisturizing his brushes?

[@jean-sebastiendube7437]

A dampening pad. They sell them with their brushes.

[@ArtisOpus]

Yes, it's our dampening pad. You can check out our Ultimate Drybrushing tutorial for some useful tips for it😊

[@TheYjmfan]

What is the powder your dipping the brush in?

[@ger5956]

Don’t forget to like and comment to appease the almighty algorithm 👍🏼

[@mikegrant8031]

how about painting a tavern quickly
