[@forseti52]

[@azuritet3]

this tutorial is well timed for me because i have been having trouble painting leather coats lately. can't wait to try out that technique.

[@X.davidWilliams]

Huzzah, top notch painting

Excellent layered wash technique. The result was very convincing leather.

Glad your back bud. Whens the stream coming back?

[@Reducer]

This couldn't have been better timed - I have a bunch of Malifaux Guild guys I want to paint in a pretty light, faded leather look. Giving this a spin.

[@LesterBursleyMiniatures]

+Johan Svensson Nice! Yeah I wanna redo my guild riflemen now as well.

[@ОбзорыКота]

Hi!Amazing work!It's magic!Could i talk with you somewhere?Maybe facebook

[@WGConsortium]

So joocy!

[@joerella534]

FANTASTIC!!!! loved the way you did the leather. What scale are these figures?

[@arxwng]

is this figure the same size as space marines from 40k or bigger?

[@Heavy4th]

Gloss nailpolish huh? Have to try that!

[@benforcer]

To anyone wanting to use oil paints, they are very hard on brushes. So if there's one you particular like when using acrylics, i wouldn't use it to deal with the oils FYI.

[@greggm1]

Sexy model and paint job, brotha.

[@cdstewart87]

Daaang.

[@HouseofChains81]

Great vid! Did you use the drybrushing on the leather because it gives it almost a sort of texture? I really loved the effect. I'm going to try it but with a darker brown.

[@patprop74]

I wish they sold a STL files for their models, It be nice to print my own and save and manufacturing and shipping cost.

[@homelessjoe]

Is there a reason you use gloss nail polish over gloss varnish? Maybe I missed it.

[@LesterBursleyMiniatures]

+Joseph Lynn The nail polish is designed to go on and level out in the least amount of coats possible on nails. I find this is also true for models. It's also quick drying which makes multiple coats fast work. And it's super strong at protecting the model. It also smooths out the surface better than water based stuff which makes the shine even better.

[@noname65PL]

+LesterBursleyMiniatures Are you diluting it somehow or going straight out of bottle? And how you cleaning brushes after? Water or something different? Great video as always.

[@LesterBursleyMiniatures]

+noname65PL I use it straight from the bottle as shown in the video. And you clean it with nail polish remover or Laquer thinner.

[@slimkognito]

Great video as we've all come to expect from you! Quick question: did you seal or varnish before you applied the oil paint?

[@LesterBursleyMiniatures]

+theplaidcolonial Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. No, I didn't varnish it before the oil wash.

[@roadyhobbycorner5926]

Really great paint job and some good ideas for painting certain parts :)But are you not scared to destroy your good quality brushes with oil-base paints and nail polish?

[@Whichendup]

Hey man, thanks for the video. This is awesome. I just picked up some Malifaux and the wood, leather, and metal examples will really help. One minor criticism though, your spinning display at the end with the black background really takes away from the model's colors. I thought the model looked way better when you were just holding it than in the final display.

[@Grits420]

musics really quiet in this video

[@Spagghetii]

+Grits420 Yeah I wanted to comment also, love the music you put to these but still a great vid!

[@michaelgrey1351]

Bit of an old video here, Les, but can I ask with the oil shading you do towards the end - is the oil paint pure when you brush it on feather it out or do you thin it first?

[@TheHipkin]

wow, u could have skipped most of the washes to achieve the same effect

[@EngineerJeff]

Jesse never looked sooo good!

[@MrJoshuakirk85]

I hope you aren't drinking that Rex Goliath wine. That stuff is swill lol.
