“My wife gave them to me” Yea right, I can almost hear her wandering around saying “Have you seen my nail polish wipes?”

[@michaelharding9619]

Many skeletons in your closet Vince…great video, thank you, painting my own Tomb Kings!

[@richardrussell7082]

Thank you for being one of the few 'gaming-related' KZbinrs that actually says 'Rank & File' and not bloody 'Rank & Flank' 😊

[@QuirkyEclipse]

Love the shields especially! I agree that they look wondefully wearhered. 😊

[@ismael9914]

Yeah, I wish we had some visual on how he have done them, the explanation he did was neat, but I'm quite the dunce when it comes to painting

[@VinceVenturella]

Yeah, sadly that footage got missed, I apologize, but it's really just stipple with a big round brush roughly onto the shield with a few different whites (what I used on the skeletons), then two thin layers of the contrast paint on top.

[@christopherlwilli]

Would a sponge achieve the same effect?

[@HunterJE]

Great now that you've said it I'll never not be able to see these guys as doing a jazzy little dance

[@DerekMonz]

Thank you again from down under! Can you please do a video that helps people like me choose their first few miniatures?

[@stigbeitelken5166]

Wonderful to see some of your personal collection, Vince! More of that, please :) Great tutorial as usual

Akhelian Green is my favorite blue!

[@user-pe1zs2pn4n]

I think they look great, and you make me sick! Lol I need to paint some skeletons and I’ve never done it before I would have never used these colors in that order in my wildest imagination. Now I’ve got a starting point for mine and I’m going to try to emulate what you did with the color that I have. Thank you so much for posting.

[@dagdamar2000]

Sadly his rough 3 hour paint job is better than my best attempt. 😁 great vid you always help me think of new ways to slay the grey!!!

Best looking Tomb King shields I have seen so far. I would have loved a more detail

They're in the description of the video. They are not makeup sponges, that's something entirely different.

[@sarajones1312]

I love your videos! They are so helpful and your painting speed and control is insane.

[@VinceVenturella]

Thank you so much 😀

[@Deihr]

Honestly, I think Newsh might be better than streaking grime, since you can just mix variety of color with it to achieve specific one. Cannot wait for what you cook with it Mr. V. Also Akhelian Green looks really nice.

[@smoothbrush4722]

Nice work on skelies

Thanks for the video vince and turning me onto newsh. Im painting my tomb kings now and have been using streaking grime but will now look into newsh! Awesome paint jobs btw

[@andrewbusch444]

I've been watching a few videos to figure out how to paint my Tomb Kings. A friend shared this one with me and I'll sold. Thank you!

hell that looks so good, i love the shieldsholy crap

[@nothinboutnuthin]

I will take one of those make up sponges and cut slits in the thin end kinda like a big paint brush. Works great for getting the newsh out of tight spots. Thanks for all the education you give!

[@VinceVenturella]

Great tip!

I have been waiting to hear more about this!

Great stuff friend 👏 👍

[@Derlaid]

Love Akhelian Green! I used it a lot for gems and crystals. Has that sort of magic crystaly colour.

[@s.w.4409]

Pretty much the exact same color scheme I was thinking about painting my Tomb Kings in. So it's the perfect video for that. Thanks Vince!

Keen to see what you might get up to with the giant bone dragon

[@watercolour_ninja1114]

Would love to see a review/demo of Newsh. It is on my radar and would love to hear your thoughts on it

[@VinceVenturella]

Well, now you have - this is basically it. :) - You'll see more of it in the future. :)

Watching then video explains the video. 😊

[@metajock]

Looks good, as always.

[@VinceVenturella]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@chrisrobinson196]

That Newsh sounds interesting, seems like it could stand in for the long OOP Plastic Soldier Company rattlecans for weathering tanks, that were the same paint (albeit spray) on, wipe away a few minutes later.

[@beardhammerwargaming]

Newsh seems interesting, Lyla Mews video on it brought it to my attention but I'm still on the edge with it. Question for another HC Video: What would an Ulgu inspired Base look like in your opinion?

[@VinceVenturella]

Dark purple and blue wastes.

[@beardhammerwargaming]

@@VinceVenturella thank you

[@chucklamb3496]

Thanks Vince

[@AM-uw3gp]

Nice one mate, I have a TK box coming so need all the inspiration I can get to quickly paint the skellies, I might spend more time on the dragon though

[@OkieDokieCreations]

Would love a comparison video between Newsh and other mediums. Like when to use each one and when

Great Vid, thank you for showcasing the Newsh -I can’t wait to get some and try it, but it’s currently sold out lol

[@BettyJOsthoff]

Oddly thinking about seeing how many High Elves I have left since the dark elves don't really have rules. It sounds like Old World is going to be taking over our LGS every Sunday.

[@yyzhed]

Excellent video! I would definitely be interested in a more complete Newsh review. I've been experimenting with it and have been struggling to get results I like.

[@TheEnd]

@12:02 Yeah it looks pretty good to me

[@Wijkert]

Going back to your roots!

[@GilthosDrakoniss]

Yes! Old WOrld!

[@gamelover260]

one this i learned is mixxing in some Army painter airbrush medium into the paint alongside newsh, it turns it more into an oil like wash. I like it, but it really hasnt replaced oils, if im in a hurry, and want something like oils, ill use it, but they dont replaced them IMO

[@wing459]

Interesting product, only just a bit into the section focusing on it, but it seems be me (at least in the capacity it was used for these skeletons) to be a product that can somewhat mimic oil washing, but with acrylics? If so how is the staining vs oil washes? Seems like a really interesting product especially considering the range of acrylic paints vs oil

[@Bakecrusto]

Newsh is specifically marketed as an alternative to oil washing, so you're correct on that; the main difference is that you won't achieve quite the intensity of oils from what I've seen, and it can be harder to work with due to both a much tighter time limit, and the fact that you're still left with an _acrylic_ wash, not oil, so cleaning it up could potentially damage whatever acrylic paint is underneath, if you're not careful and/or didn't varnish before use.

[@VinceVenturella]

Yep, you'll see a little more staining, but you can reduce with a varnish, same as the oil paints, basically what was said above is dead on.

[@zramirez5471]

Man I'm really excited to see more people playing with this (Lyla Mev I think was the first I saw?) I wonder if there's application for this in a low ratio for wet blending?

[@elguntor]

How about a video on the organizational principles behind how you sort all that paint?

[@JEGranberg]

I’m interested in Newsh, as I don’t want to use various solvents. I’d like to see how Newsh could be used on terrain projects.

[@komma8203]

Here in Norway the stiring sticks from the paint store is not free, its like between half a euro to 1 euro per stick. Pretty enoying but it is what it is. Going to have to pick up that Newsh medium and try it out, had not seen that before, even though i own most of the monument paints

[@michaciemniewski9791]

Rank&Flank has some unique charm. Especially armies like Khemri or Empire of Dust (Mantic). Sadly WFB never solved a problem with troop type units no one wanted to take :D

[@Malthus]

I gotta give it to them, Newsh is fun to say.

[@clawhammr666]

Great technique, definitely seems like light acrylic version of streaking grime and that's okay (specially since I noticed I didn't use mine for a while and I think it's ruined) non-video aka tomb kings related, I remember you did some beastmen skin videos (planning to finally try AoS this year) and I'm not finding it, at least not with 'beastmen' or 'beasts of chaos' from the hobby cheating vids (think you painted the warcry or small box of 'em)

[@alastairtivy-harris8129]

Incredible job! Great result for only 3 hours of work. I noticed that you primed and painted the shields separately. Once painted, do you glue the shields to the skeletons with plastic glue? I used to paint bits separately and then glue them, but found that the plastic glue isn’t as reliable when glueing painted bits together.

[@VinceVenturella]

Yep, I just don't paint one side of the connection (the shields) and no issue.

[@Dhrazia]

Great stuff as always Vince! Do you have any suggestions for painting my men-at-arms with some weathering techniques to dirty them down a bit. Painting their shields and other parts with the fancy heraldry colours and then getting them to look faded or a bit battered?

[@VinceVenturella]

I have some previous videos on weathering, pigment powders and so on, all of those would be valid with grit-ing them up.

[@miguipingui]

Hola Vince!! Does the newsh chemical composition gives acrylic paints the qualities of oil paints? Like the transitions and smoothness that you can have when painting with it in a model by removing it, thats the thing we use it for normally. Luv the vid❤

[@VinceVenturella]

Yeah, its becomes similar, oil paints can still be cleaned up more as they can be compeltely erased most of the time, but its similar.

[@ammarsuhail92]

Great video as always. Besides the ability to use water instead of thinner and drying time, would you say there's much difference between using Noosh and oil paints?

[@VinceVenturella]

No toxic solvents, little more staining, but otherwise quite similar.

[@geteavnroc2250]

I like Newsh!

[@christopherheintz2634]

Vince, have you tried using mr color leveling thinner with the vallejo liquid gold ( or tamiya x20a with some of their acrylic retarder?)? Actually, i will just try it and let you know what happens on the next video. Youre right its a beautiful oaint, but a PITA when youre set up for water based paints.

[@galatician8063]

Thanks Vince! I think your skeles look great! I signed up for notification of when Newsh is back in stock. I waited too long! I have some projects I'm saving for it. You have a Stargate Arcade machine?!?! Saw that in Ninjon's video. That was some good times!!!!

[@VinceVenturella]

That's just the box I have, I rebuilt it with a new screen, a computer and a mame inside. :)

[@mf2943]

Hey Vince, thanks for the insights as usual. You tackled one topic in a throw away sentence that i think is easy to overlook. At 7:35, you talk about how the model made cleaning up difficult because its quite hard to reach in some places. One thing that i as a new painter of Battletech minis struggled with was deciding how to actually work around some of the very tight spaces between the arms and hips on these models. There was no way that i can get any type of sponge in there, and even a brush is sometimes hard to get in there. If you want names, google the "Nova" or "Dire Wolf" models. How do you account for that? If you do a test model, do you start from the most complicated model? Do you change your paint scheme for just the one? Or would you go around the topic and maybe magnetize the arms (which isnt usually a thing in Battletech) just to have better access?

[@VinceVenturella]

I start from an average model basically. You are going to run into variations, but if you have the fundamentals down, you are in a much better place to adjust to those.

[@jamescasey6387]

You can also go to harbor freight to pick up the double sided tape and super glue for next to nothing

[@teamkeogh]

Good Morning Vince, Thank you for the tutorial. Makes me want to paint up some old world skeletons. I love the warmth you've achieved. My question to you (or anyone is the comments) - What Citadel or Vallejo paint would you use as an equivalent for warm brown? I ask this as Citadel & Vallejo are my primary paint lines atm. Thanks for the great and continued content Vince :)

[@VinceVenturella]

Rhinox Hide would be a fine replacement.

[@teamkeogh]

@@VinceVenturella Thank you Vince :)

[@fredsmith1207]

Hey Vince, just wondering how you went about painting the back of the shields with them stuck to the paint stick?

[@VinceVenturella]

Popped them off and gave a quick dry brush and brown wood, blue edge, good to go.

[@saschabernhardt5269]

Do you like the result of Newsh more than traditional Oilcolours removed with white spirit? Are the colour nuances at the end small like oilcolours? Would it please be possible that you show more the use of an airbrush with speed paint projects. Thank you for this great videos! I am a big fan of your work.

[@VinceVenturella]

Most people ask in the comments for less airbrush (so I try to keep it simple as for stuff like this). It's easier than oil paints (no solvent, no long dry time, etc.).

[@Wijkert]

Hoping for a LVO reveal reaction video.

[@VinceVenturella]

Nothing interesting enough to do a video sadly.

[@andrewwade9806]

Hail Settra!

[@wroot1]

IT'S VINCE!!

[@DanielVisOneCade]

It would be made to spend more then 10 mins a model for basic line troops especially ones from a crumble to dust/instantly remove wholesale units force like Tomb King's or their equivalent.

[@VinceVenturella]

Well, I am often quite mad. :)

[@Abominus69]

Vallejo Xpress seem to be less blotchy and have a longer working time. Have you tried mixing Xpress medium with Contrast paints to see if it passes on those properties? If so, is there a rough ratio you use for this?

[@VinceVenturella]

I've not tried it, but I am sure it could work.

[@namechange4137]

Hey Vince. Once the model and shield are each painted separately you glue them together. The paint holds fine even though the plastic is painted ? Noob question lol. I have nv done sub assembly painting

[@VinceVenturella]

Yep, I don't paint one side of the join (on the back of the shield), so you have no issue.

[@namechange4137]

[@ChadHavoc]

When you drybrush are you brushing the miniatures up and down, or are you brushing downwards?

[@VinceVenturella]

Just downwards.

[@Frankacy40k]

Great video! And I can’t find the link to those nail polish wipes 😅

[@VinceVenturella]

amzn.to/48YfjQG - there you go.

[@mitchthegreat]

Little off topic. But when doing. A zenithal highlight. (Over black Vallejo primer) using white air from Vallej, mixed with flow improver. My white is dotty. Changed air pressure with no avail. Any ideas?

[@VinceVenturella]

So white is always going to be somewhat spotty over black, an airbrush makes paint into tiny dots, but white is thicker with larger pigment, and it shows the dots more (so it's always happening to some degree, but white over black really shows it AND the thicker paint makes it harder to break up). Some options - 1) Don't use pure white primer, use a near white paint like ivory, that will break up more. 2) Turn up the PSI to 40+, 3) Use a little more thinner/flow improver and build up the white more slowly. 4) Try a white ink, though you'll want to varnish then after this. Hope that helps.

[@nicholasmiller4756]

What is your favorite light for doing hobby stuff?

[@VinceVenturella]

I'm going to do a video on it soon, but I love the new Lucent light from Game Envy, it's wonderful.

[@earnestwanderer2471]

Reason for building up from black base coat? As opposed to like starting with something like Wraith Bone or Zandri Dust?

[@VinceVenturella]

Sure, I want dark in the recesses and separating the elements, when you start from an even base color, it's harder to build those clean, dark recesses back in.

[@earnestwanderer2471]

In the old days I would have just used Skull White and then washed it with Brown Ink. Things have changed in thirty years. 🙂

[@Rhaenday]

10ish min re-activation time with a wet brush - can you go back in with paints right away or do you recommend waiting 10? 15? before continuing to paint after having slathered on something diluted with Newsh?

[@VinceVenturella]

Wait a few minutes.

[@BradenWoj]

I know you plan to experiment with newish a bit more but from your perspective and experiences so far, do you think newish would be a great tool to use for the enamel washes or oil washes that are popular with grim dark style?

[@VinceVenturella]

Yes, absolutely

[@Modge17]

Is Newsh like the flory washes that model plane makers use?

[@VinceVenturella]

Couldn't say, not familiar with that.

[@Modge17]

@@VinceVenturella no problem thanks for replying! I think it’s a clay based wash that they use for panel lining but as with Newsh it just wipes off so no thinners etc.

[@bobbystickel5107]

You need to give out stickers that say "and then... you clench."

[@Skraal2099]

You mentioned in the video that you really hated working with the Vallejo Liquid Gold - would you still recommend using it for this task or was your use of it in this case mostly to maintain continuity with your previously painted miniatures in the same army? If you wouldn't recommend it for this, is there another that you would recommend instead? I know in previous videos you've mentioned your love for the Vallejo Metal Color range, would a better alternative be the gold from that range (or perhaps one of the light silvers with a yellow or brown wash)?

[@VinceVenturella]

I wouldn't have used it if it wasn't for continuity.

[@dannythompson9642]

👍👍

[@stevewilson1275]

Vince, one of the things I appreciate about oil washes is how much control I have over the level of shading I end up with, since I can remove as much as I like, or even take it all back off, if it's not working. It would seem like, due to the acrylic nature of Newsh, that you are limited in how much you can remove after it's applied. Is this the case? Would using a retardant make it behave more like an enamel wash in this respect?

[@VinceVenturella]

You can pull it mostly off, if you varnished or gloss varnished first, you could remove more. You wouldn’t need additional retardant, just more newsh.

[@milkboy903]

If I don’t have the newsh medium, can I use a similar product?

[@VinceVenturella]

Something like an oil wash would be similar.

[@AzaMinis]

It appeared like during some of the "wipe away" stage of using the Newsh, you ended up wiping down to bare plastic underneath the base coat. Did I see that correctly? Has this been an issue you've experienced before? I will often have that problem when wiping away oil washes as well, and was hoping that Newsh might help solve it.

[@VinceVenturella]

No, no plastic, it was just likely dark or something, but never wiped to the plastic.

[@benhadaway3322]

Can you paint some Bretonnian Knights please?

[@VinceVenturella]

You won't have to wait long for that!

[@kausalkraken5951]

what display case do you use?
