Drops brush into paint. Breaks model off base. Knocks model over. Goes off on tangents. Keeps lifting model out of frame. Still makes one of the best painting tutorial videos out there and teaches me more in half hour than I've learnt in years and it's your first video? My man this is ace, well done.

Maybe the best instructional video on over/drybrushing I've seen. Others talk about adding moisture to the brush, but never about how much moisture to use. This makes so much sense to me.

Thank you! I’m a huge fan of Byron from Artis Opus, but he’s such an expert that I’m left with as many questions as he answers. I love the progression of grays with the decrease in brush sizes. I love how you explained wetting the brush with a finger in the pot and the board, and not some fancy dampening pad. I love the explanation of OSB vs tissue of not wicking away so much water. I’m going to practice all of these techniques. Thanks again for sharing so much clarity in how to do this.

Thanks! Very much appreciate your comment! I'm also a fan of Artis Opus and have just got some of the brushes for myself. You are right, there is a learning curve and because I'm not practiced with them i'm finding it difficult to use them. So, i'm sticking to the makeup brushes until I learn how. It's all about the practice and if we keep marching on we'll get the technique down!!!

Great stuff! I also like to take a couple pictures of the model at this point to serve as reference points for highlighting and detailing. Everything is picked out now and the directional source of the light has been established. Sometimes I’ll take a lot of time between the battle ready level and the parade ready level so having those fully highlighted versions to reference helps a lot.

This is an amazing video! I just recently started Slap Chopping…but my dry-brushing skills would always turn my greys and whites chalky and dusty. Needless to say, because of the chalky residue, it created a domino effect where my Slap Chop wouldn’t have a clean and smooth finish. This method and the way to keep your brush moist helped so much!

Black through grey through white. What would you do for a warmer undershade as a paint range? Dark brown to ivory to white maybe? And do you think you might do a video of dark purple through bright yellow? That's th bit you mentiond that I found fascinating!

I would add small addition. If you gonna paint with contrasts/speedpaints, you can decrease black and greys in shadow areas (by increasing white drybrush amount). It will make more vibrant colors, since 1 coat of that type of paints will not be enough to cover black and will produce very dull result.

Okay, so I was recommended this video (I'm assuming) because I'm always on the hunt for different techniques for dry brushing or underpainting.. I have been dry brushing for decades.. I have tried a multitude of brushes for dry brushing.. And by far the best dry brush is that first make up brush you used, the shape of it and how compact the hairs are always results in a beautiful finish. However, make up brushes have been designed to feather out a moist medium, like make up (foundation etc).. if you get a make up brush wet, or damp.. you smear the paint. You need to keep make up brushes bone dry to get the best results. Other dry brushes, such as artis opus, are goats hair, they are designed to be damp (often used for water colours).. that is why that style of dry brushing works for those brushes. Try keeping your make up brush dry, and focus gently dusting over the model.. then if you need a heavier dry brush, you can scrub. You also don't need that many greys for your under painting, here's why, acrylic paint is transparent.. that is why it takes two thin coats 😅.. when you brush catches an edge multiple times it becomes opaque, but the surface areas around that edge get a lighter coat, resulting in the colour underneath to show through a little bit.. So if you go from a black to a mid grey, because of how dry brushing and acrylic paint works, you will automatically get a darker grey transitioning from black to mid grey.. The same applies to the white, even more so. But as an added note, you described only being selective as you got progressively lighter, yet you ended up going over most of the same areas with 5 layers of paint. I don't know, I just feel you could cut some corners and still get the same result. I mean, you'll only going to put varying hues over that work anyway, and that always softens the transition shades.. so most of those greys don't even play a part at the end. But hey, your hobby, your way. I just hope you can understand where I'm coming from.

Also, I love comments like these as it helps us all grow and learn more about how others paint. I fully encourage others to read this comment all the way through. I would be very happy with the same critique on my next video that will be going live today at 12:30GMT. I think it shows your point about the paint softening the blend of the drybrush colours. :D

Oh yeah totally. I often use purple and drybrush with yellows, then use contrast paint over the top. It's just a case of experimenting with it and seeing what happens!

Do you have any tips for when you just want to catch the little ridges and edges but without putting much paint onto main surfaces? You need enough paint to actually catch those edges but not so much that it starts depositing on the flat bits.

How well does this work for truer 25mm minis? I see this technique demonstrated on KZbin all the time, but the minis are often huge.

It does work for smaller minis. I'd recommend using smaller brushes :)

Great video, thanks! Does the wood palette still function properly once it's coated in paint, or do you clean it?

Can you clean the wooden board? Or do you use a new one everytime? 😅

Great video, i'll try that as soon as possible. Just one question regarding the wooden board. Do you clean and dry it every few models, or do you get a new one? Can you still use it when there's multiple layers of dried pain? Thanks for youe help!

@thepaintbeast 10 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching! Let me know how you get on. I haven't cleaned it yet but will give it a scrub at some point. I have used both sides. You can still use it with multiple layers :)

How would you recommend this method on minis with more flat surfaces such as space marine dreadnoughts or tanks?
@forouza1
@forouza1 9 ай бұрын
Because the surfaces are flat you can’t do traditional dry brushing. Rather you can achieve amazing results stippling with the dry brush. It’s a different technique but you can get very nice effects on flatter surfaces. See Artis Opus. He does a lot of this technique mixed in with traditional dry brushing.

It's harder to do and looks more chalky on a flat surface but is still achievable with the same steps. You may want to put a but more moisture on the brush.

What about cleaning the Drybrush between colors? The brush is of course wet if i clean it out. But if i dont clean it out, i have the first paint still in the brush. Or does that not matter?

Can you do a video on how you paint it after that? Im struggling. The process is hard because i dont know how to get my color in without losing the highlights or i cant paint it enough to see the colors. I see some artists just use contrast colors. Already watered down then just add layers. Can we see part 2 on your color choice

Absolutely! Part 2 is already filmed and ready to be uploaded. It will be released at the end of March!

@thepaintbeast

Thank you!!! 1. I will but probably not soon as i'd just be repeating the steps as in this video. 2. Yes! I released the second part in the Kroxigor series today. Check it out :)
