What an astonishing gradient! Every time I watch you begin a task I’m like “no, there’s no way he can pull this... OH MY GOD HES DONE IT!!” Truly inspirational

Thank you so much! You flatter me!

Really impressive craft! Great job man

Great video! I really enjoyed it and it's exactly what I was looking for! The biggest thing I'd do to improve it is to make your audio louder! Look up tutorials on audio balancing if you'd like to learn more on that

[@magicmissileminis9723]

That should be an easy fix, thanks for pointing it out!

Impressive work, your sculpting skills are amazing. Some good tips here on painting as well, but wondeing why you don't use washes. They give a finish to minis that you just can't get from dry brushing and wet belnding alone. Thanks for the vid.

I don’t have any washes that I use for lighting and such, I usually do that just for the shadows what kind of wash would you suggest for this kind of thing?

[@gamingspiders384]

@@magicmissileminis9723 Not necessarily for the lighting, I was just suprised you don't use washes over the entire mini prior to the lighting effect. You get a lot more gradation, shadows and highlights when washing the entire mini. I see you did use washes in the Space Marine. I just make my own washes using many of the formulas on KZbin (Matte Medium, Flow Aid, Water and Ink)

I might have done it afterwards, the vid was more for the lighting effects so I didn’t show me doing it

Jokes on you, I used this for Warhammer 40k
