Beautiful song, man. It's amazing how much better the figures look with such a simple technique. Appreciate the knowledge.

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

hah im glad someone enjoyed the song.

[@sorestarbing3978]

Thanks a lot..I never thought wash technique to be as simple as it is.

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

You are welcome 😊

[@hondasan72]

Love how the wash highlighted the details. Made a $20 fig look like a $22 fig... j/k!!! They look so much more bad ass with the wash. I'm gonna give it a try. Side note: U got skillz bro. Spittin dat fyre off da top o da dome like dat!!! That should be her theme song in the next Star Wars flick!!! P.S. can't wait to see that dry brush vid you mentioned. Kutgw!!! ✌🏼

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

hahah great comment!

[@bkingofbeers]

What type of paint do you use and what colour? I've never painted a figure before but want to start.

[@petersmith9138]

You have turned me deaf

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

[@milquest]

Will watch again and again just for the Rose Tico song 🤣

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

PERFECT! haha

[@jakea75]

Thanks so much. This is gonna help me improve my figures aesthetics

[@MK7-MephistoKevin777]

Great video, always good to see other people's experiments with weathering and various customizing, and your song is hilarious (LOL) !!!

[@ChillFamGamingTV]

I don’t have wash paint. I don’t have matte black paint. Too expensive here like 20$ for a 20ml. Can i use a cheaper normal black acrylic paint mixed with water or it’s a no no? Thank you for your tutorial. 🔥✌🏽🔥✌🏽

[@claire112]

I love you this video is great in so many ways

[@walterwhite9865]

Thanks! I made a flametrooper from jakku using this technique. I also added a flame effect.

[@MURGYATNO]

Thank you man. Really help me to learn black washing..

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

[@finald4474]

Wow.. that really did improve it. What kind of paint and brush did you use for this?

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

hello danny', any black paint can be used and any brush! just water the paint down

[@zahrakhanfri7565]

LOl he all ready looks light years better lol!! your awesome man! thanks for the info!

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

HECK YEA! You bet

[@jonathanboyd2066]

Epic hair!

[@SaucyDangles]

Is the figure still wet when you begin to paint or is it dried off from cleaning it?

[@Lloyd_workshop]

what kind of black paint did you used ?

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

any acrylic paint can work! it really just needs a good clear coat on top!

[@jaxisticspace4919]

Would it be a flat clear

[@HeavyLiquidOfficial]

What's a good brand of black wash paint to use?

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

best part for this technique you can use any paint no matter how cheap or expensive. as long as you seal it after it fully dries

[@juanceballos8353]

What can you do for a black action figure? I have a cheap Darth Vader action figure I would like to try and create more detail on

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

you'd want to try a dry brush technique! i have a video on that too!

[@juanceballos8353]

@@ROCCOTHEGREAT thanks! I'll look it up!

[@Gin_toybox]

What kind of paint do you use?

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

doesn't matter! all that matters is the sealer at the end!

[@galleos4663]

When I apply black wash to my models, the wash doesn't stay in the crevices it only darkens my models, what should I do?

[@handyhomebrewnetwork2142]

used a gold metallic spray paint for some accessories, and I can't get the black wash to work at all. It's repeals like oil and water... A wash won't work on this spray paint will it?

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

give it a matte finish with some modpodge, then you can paint on that then seal it again

[@paulyphonic]

Hahaah The song had me dying. lmao Good work man! 👍🏻

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

thanks ! it was so random and funny i couldn't cut it out. glad people find it amusing. haha

[@_walruseater]

do you need to use a clear sealant after applying the wash (and waiting for it to dry)?

[@noblord8643]

Can you do it over lacquer repainted figure?

[@ludwigvanbubthoven5692]

Hey Rocco, in general, how long do you wait before wiping away the excess paint?

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

you just go with how you feel, I reccoment just jumping into it and experimenting yourself. its always different and you'll get the right feel for it while doing it more

[@ludwigvanbubthoven5692]

@@ROCCOTHEGREAT I took your advice and gave the Omega Sentinel a light wash in her hair. Much better! Thanks.

[@HailIB]

Good question.

[@shawndiehl1959]

[@thatdude5353]

What paint did you use?

[@ROCCOTHEGREAT]

cheap paint from walmart or dollar store works fine!

The implication that Rose Tico is more powerful than Kylo Ren (which then implies she's more powerful than Palpatine) is what really made this video.
