Airbrushing the oil wash on can get a lot work done fast on larger model. I literally flood the model, like keep spraying until it’s visibly wet and keep spraying a little longer. Then do the usual oil wash stuff. Just be very careful about how you deal with fumes as it’s obviously dangerous. Make sure there’s no risk of ignition anywhere in the room. I cannot stress enough, be very cautious. Some air extraction methods are not suitable for flammable fumes.

My brother, I just found your channel during a search for printing titans. I would like to offer some help with the miliput situation. First of all the answer is no With regards to there being a way to make Milput enjoyable lol. The best way to fill gaps are: 1. Large gaps, glue in strips, chunks of sprue , styrene Channels, whatever into the gap, fill the much smaller gap with regular putty , I use tamiya or mig. 2 a substance similar to miliput but far easier to work with is AVES apoxie , this and tamiya two part putty are far superior to miliput. Both apoxie and tamiya putty are easy to smooth , sand , etc . Aloxie is the best for large projects as well. Lastly I believe aloxie makes a filler putty that is hobby grade- if you can find it . Hope this helps , glad I found your channel, your work is very good, loved the krieg knight.

Miliput works best like this: For modeling, set it rest for 30 min after mixing the two components, then it's ready to be used for 1 hour aprox, it will not be sticky and can be modeled as you want, for less textured surfaces you can finish it with isopropyl alcohol. For filling gaps, at the moment you finish mixing the components, add isopropyl alcohol, I normally use it in a bottle cap, add a small amount of miliput and fill the rest with alcohol, mix it and you should got a paste, dense enough to fill small gaps (this recipe I learned from Marco Frisoni from NJM in youtube, give him a visit) 😉

Use white milliput not the yellow one, you'll thank me later. White milliput is a lot softer after it is mixed acting more like a thick paste and it is very flexible to get inside things cracks. Just keep in mind it's very sticky when it meets water but that's a good thing for what you are trying to do.

@@ryansidney1051 I would recommend two washes. First wash in a tub of “dirty” ipa and then into the wash station of “clean” ipa. The idea is the dirty wash gets the bulk of the uncured resin off and the clean wash gets the remaining residue off. If the models still look wet after drying overnight, give them a quick blast of a hairdryer. I hope this helps.

None. Games workshop doesn't like when people make exact copies of models for people to 3d print, since it would compete with them trying to sell models. It would also be a violation of their intellectual property to copy their models directly. This is a 3d printed model designed by someone else. It is similar enough to Games workshop designs that you could use it in an ork army as a stompa, but different enough that Games workshop won't use legal action to take down the models designer. This is the case for most 3d printed models. Similarly enough you can play with them, but not exact copies.

I'm noticing that you are pulling a lot from Marco Frisoni's toolset, but you aren't really trying to achieve his style - I think that's why you are struggling with placing highlights. They aren't edge highlights, they are volumetric highlights - and you aren't mixing up the gouaches on a pallet to work up to a really bright color, which will make it hard to pop your highlights
