I have to say this slapchop method has brought me back to life as a painter. I have had piles and piles of unpainted grey minis taking up my closet for years because I just havent had time to give them all a "table top ready" paint job. But now with these speed paints I can spray paint a few minis I want to do before work, come home and actually paint 2-3 minis a night before bed and be satisfied with how they look. I am in love.

[@ericjohnson4767]

These types of scientific tests are what keeps me coming back to Goobertown. The "memorable tidbits" makes an excellent cheat sheet and summary! Excellent work on this project!

[@IcarusGames]

Great video! I've been doing some of my own tests and I've personally found the prime color to be the most important. You can change the entire tone and feel of a mini by using a colored primer. The "problem" with a black prime is that is sucks out the saturation of color, and really muddies some colors. For my Imperial Fists I've started using a pink prime, followed by a cream zenithal, a white drybrush, and then a contrast paint, and it's the fastest I've ever been able to get a decent looking lemon boy on the table. I think I would use brown primer for anything I wanted to have a "natural" look to them, a dark blue for any cold color scheme models, and either a magenta or dark red (depending on how bright I want the value of the end model) for anything I want to be a warm color scheme.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

I hear ya! Thanks for watchin and thanks for the input :-)

[@the_arcanum]

100% agreed. One could also mention that gloss primers and notably gloss black work extremely well for true metallics. They add to the reflectivity of the model and allow to develop contrast with a simple wash without needing further edge highlighting. Natural light does that work for us.

[@sasserine]

There's a video on this site, showing pink primer as a base for yellow chaos warriors, so the choice to use it for Imperial Fists would seem well founded.

[@edevans5991]

I think you can really see the bad side of the black primer in the faces of these Brents. Basically the less primer he left behind the better they looked. And overall that's the "problem" with these Contrast/Speed/Xpress/etc paints. There are actually a lot of experiments to be done before you find the right formula. I think they only really save a bunch of time if you are painting a whole army. I mean something like Slapchop looks decent but so does a nice clean base coat and a wash.

[@IcarusGames]

@@edevans5991 That's why I like to use pretty much any other color other than black when I'm doing this. Brown, blue, or magenta are my favourites depending on if I'm looking for a neutral, cold, or warm overall finish.

Love having more systematic attention paid to this topic! You lightly touched on it, but i suspect the idea of a colored undercoat will be the next idea to make waves across the community in relation to this, you're the second person using browns for the undercoat, and the original grisaille painters used many others, in addition of the idea i've heard from multiple sources over years that undercoating a mini in purple gives you the best skintones you can get, so i suspect there's far more to explore in this topic in the future

[@nathanielhurley3960]

This is a neat way to undercoat. Especially since I don't really like how zenithals come out. Here is the method I have been playing with: 1. Prime grey 2. Black wash to add shadows 3. Dry brush white

[@sumotode]

Coming from a more traditional art teaching, this resonates much better in my mind. In traditional art (painting or drawing) you are taught to start with a neutral color and then add in shadow and light separately. This gives more control where those lights and darks go and it also gives you a neutral ground that tends to work better going both directions vs starting with the darkest part and trying to go the whole spectrum lighter.

[@SANSd20]

I would love to see a video on this technique

[@LaurentWiart]

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 🎨 Using a black and white undercoat with colors can result in a nice paint job. 01:23 🖌️ Makeup brushes and old synthetic paint brushes can be effective for dry brushing. 02:35 🎨 Type of brush matters more than the type of paint for dry brushing. 05:34 🖌️ Adding a gray dry brush step between black and white can create smoother transitions. 08:09 🎨 Gray xenithal primer with a white dry brush gives nice results, saving time and effort. 10:02 🎨 Thick or thin coats of color on the base coat doesn't matter much for contrast, as the undercoat does most of the work. 12:20 🖌️ The worst undercoat is a white primer, as mistakes are more visible and it lacks contrast and complexity. 14:13 🖌️ Brighter undercoats result in brighter painted models, and the gray xenathol spray is a faster alternative to a gray dry brush. 14:56 🖌️ Brown can be used as an alternative to gray for a sepia undercoat to achieve smooth transitions. 16:29 🎨 Slap Chop technique (black prime, gray/brown undercoat, white dry brush) is efficient and accessible for quick minis.

[@aponly]

Great video! I love these comparison ones. I'm still settling into a method for "slapchop" but this helps a bunch!

[@scopeyourpeace3975]

This is still one of my absolute favorite videos of yours!! I still reference it when I’m in a bit of a hurry with painting something up and plan to slapchop. However, one thing that I would LOVE TO SEE YOU DO is how much of a difference does it really make between using a matte/satin/gloss black primer (Artis Opal states to not use a matte primer when slapchopping). As well as I would love to see the difference of using a grey primer white dry brush (and/or zenthial also), as well as using a darker shade of whatever primary color you plan to use be your base coat of whatever and dry brush white over that and then use your contrast paint color over that. And compare all of these methods to the best 2 or 3 methods from this video to see how much of a difference it makes, if any! I truly LOVE your comparative videos more than any other miniature painting content on KZbin! I absolutely love seeing the scientific results that most of us don’t have the time or resources to do so ourselves. As well, keep up the fantastic work! I wish you all the best! 🫡

[@FlyMicrolight]

Love your systematic approach. I find that using something non porus to brush off most of the paint before dry brushing results in a much smoother finish. The paper towel sucks all the moisture from the brush and leaves the chalky-looking finish. Actually having a very slightly damp brush is best of all. Have a look at some of the videos from Artis Opus for some examples.

[@stephenmclean4683]

I really appreciate you taking the time to trial and error out things like this, and show the results in a meaningful and objective way. I've never tried any brand of speed paints, but am curious and with your testing done I feel informed enough to make a strong first effort. Thank you!

[@Gauldame]

I have been playing with a black, magenta, then white underpainting. Similar to the brown, it impacts the color filtering of the base coats. I can't really decide if it's better than just doing black grey white. I've also tried it with flesh tones : dark chocolate, to cinnamon to pale. That has an interesting effect as well.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

The black - gray - white is a fine default, but tailoring the undercoat color to the mini and the specific color scheme that you have in mind sounds great! the warmer undercoat for skin makes a lot of sense.

[@JonSteitzer]

Brent no one else on youtube paints in such bright vibrant colors as you. I have no idea how you do it but I love it.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

[@ArtisOpus]

When you're nearly done editing your longest video ever... And Brent sums it up with science in a quarter of the time 😅🔬🔬 You hero. A lot of our findings were very similar :). As a note if you missed one I think it's just simply *slowing down the grey drybrush* and going for high-quality, following dark grey/dark coloured primer (we also used brown). It really doesn't take too much longer than the normal drybrush (in comparison to total time added). With the normal white final step (also slowing just a tiny amount for quality) you elevate the technique's potential so much. Video is due soon, would love to see you try it out, plenty of theory to match your science 😅 Edit: Metallic tip is also worth considering, a little time added for notable improvement.

[@Vortid]

Really useful stuff! Don´t know when I will be speedpainting, but if I am, I am rewatching this video. One thing that can make speedpainting result a little bit boring is the black shadow color. The brown to tan under paint is nice for that! I think it would be interesting to experiment with some "reverse-zenithal" e.g. a different colour from below, and still a zenithal from above like usual, to get some different shadow colors in there. Could work fine with a drybrush - for example, do a regular zenithal, drybrush a dark red from down to up in areas where you want it, and then paint it green. It sounds good to me in theory, would it be good in practice though?

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Reverse zenithals are fun with an airbrush, but I bet they're pretty dang tricky with a drybrush... I like the idea though! :-)

[@Some-Guy-]

Yeah, I think grey primer with black shot from below and white from above is the best compromise between time and quality results
