Good use of commercial washes on wood, which because of their thin consistency and sediment heavy values tend to follow and highlight the wood grains. Also, excellent use of the Slimy Grime set, which was my first purchase of a weathering set upon retaking up modeling last year. And your procedure applies also to plastic. After prepping the plastic using various rasps and blades to instill a wood texture, the steps highlighted in your clip can be followed with excellent results, for that faux-wood finish. As Seinfeld said, "Wood is good."

@reelmesh10 жыл бұрын
Thank you mate! :) I understand your point and it's a good one, this was my first try at weathering wood (the build I just finished) and I guess I was fearing that the wood absorbed all of the products leaving me without control over the weathering, that and the fact that I'm so used to prime everything that I didn't even remembered not to do so. I will give it a try on naked wood next time. Thank you for that tip mate! :)

Hi Carlos, that looks really great. Can I ask you a couple of questions? Why is it necessary to prime and paint the wood first? If you're working with natural wood can't you start with the wood's natural colour? Also doesn't the second wash (the enamel one) obliterate the first red brown one you did? Thanks for the video. Would you happen to have a tutorial on weathering painted wood? For example an old barn door that was painted blue, but has worn off over the years? Thank you.
@justinpenov26093 жыл бұрын
If you were going to add a color on top of this (like if the fence was painted), would you take the same approach as in the video, then add a layer of chipping fluid, then airbrushed color?
@hl17965 жыл бұрын
thank Carlos, you tutorial is help me tremendously, but i wonder, why did you have to make a thin dark red wash at beginning, since all of those grain will be shade with Dark Brown wash later ?
@jacobrivers14348 жыл бұрын
So I notice when I'm modeling (and I see it here in this tutorial) that paints tend to lose intensity as they dry. Often, as I paint a thin wash, I get alarmed at the intensity of the wash and tend to pull back- but then it dries too light. Is that understanding of intensity when dry vs wet just a learned thing? If so, I can be patient, but if there is a good guideline (ie, wet paint is twice as intense as dry) then I would love to know it.
@reelmesh8 жыл бұрын
For me it is definitely a learned thing, better yet, a developed thing. I have a feel for it I guess, probably from a lot of trial and error. I think a good rule of thumb is to go light instead of heavy, as it is easier to add more layers than to subdue a strong one. However, I personally have tried to be mindful and retain my ability to be bold at times, either with a paint job or an effect. At any rate it always depends on how one sees his work. In my case I see it as a form of art, therefore I tend to dislike the plain, the stagnant and barren in my models. Thank you for watching.

Great work! I'm curious, when working with wood and painting it to look like weathered wood, why do you prime the wood first? Would the result be different with unprimed wood?
@reelmesh8 жыл бұрын
Thank you for watching! The reason I do it is two fold, first the wood gets sealed and thus is protected from environmental effects. Being organic even though dry makes it somewhat prone to humidity and the like. And the second is control, starting from the primer base allows me to better predict and control the manner in which the processes are applied to the wood.
