This was exceptionally well done. The tutorial was clear and concise, and your sample turned out fantastic.

[@LandspeederLuke]

Thanks Logan!!

[@restock_1731]

Wow, this looks so much better than the factory version. I would definitely love to see more of these painting/weathering videos. 👍

[@ryangunwitch-black]

That is a thing, isn’t it 😂!? Watching painting videos whilst painting! Lol I’m glad I’m not the only one. Great stuff here. Thanks

[@ethanfrederiksen4327]

Found your channel a couple of weeks ago, and I've really been loving how relaxed, unscripted and varied your videos are. Some reviewers out there like to go over every single detail - in great detail - whereas you just let the figures speak for themselves, really. I like your simple setup, the lighting is soothing and subtle yet effective, and you yourself are good company. And speaking of you, it's thanks to these videos of yours, that I've finally dared go into some customising. So, thank you, Luke :)

[@LandspeederLuke]

That’s so nice and encouraging, thank you!!

Learned a lot. PLEASE make more videso like this. Preferably Stormtroopers or Clone. Stormtrooper before Clone.

[@aidanramage3320]

[@OutOfTheBasement]

This was great Luke! I'd love to see more. Very chill and relaxing. -Nate

[@chilledoutnate]

thanks for the tutorial!

[@Beardalorian]

Luke my man, this helped a lot. Only thing I've done is Marvel THE THING to bring out the rocks. But this video has helped a lot with doing normal videos. I bought Citadel Shades NULN OIL and it's a perfect mix so it's not heavy or too watery. Definitely gonna use your techniques on some figures.

[@erindrury785]

Thank you for this. For years, I've said I've wanted to do this on figures that are too clean, especially troopers and also a lot of the accessories, like guns. Yours was definitely the easiest to follow.

[@Nanou2_]

Damn, now I wanna pick up a Saw Gerrera because of this video lol

[@watchmojosh]

Absolutely love this video, Luke. Even coming from someone familiar with the techniques, this was such a soothing watch! Especially love to see such great treatment of my favorite toys 😊

[@theperceptor9287]

Hello Luke another informative video of customizing figures. A great tip about using a metallic sharpy never heard of that one. Your Saw figure looks great even with a little thin black paint for shading and brings out the details. A very helpful video for customizers. Thanks again for taking the time to show us how to do this. Take care, Tom

[@StraightOtohGunga]

Very well done 👍

That was amazing! You are incredibly talented.

this is really nice and chill love all your videos but these relaxing ones are great for late at night before you sleep

[@LandspeederLuke]

That was my goal!

Awesome

Loved this video, looking forward to more painting vids/tutorials. Also painting stream could be something cool

[@Tijuanoinsolente]

More videos like these, please! I'm really looking into customizing after seeing the stuff you put out!

I´d love to see more of this, maybe one focusing on different weapons?

[@kameronhughes6331]

Awesome video boss man

[@Matt_Bryant]

Great video! Really enjoyed that... It literally got better and more life-like as the video went on. Awesome work!!!

[@darthJAM666]

excellent

[@RandomStuffGarage619]

Heck yes!!! I have been meaning to weather one of my jedha patrol troopers. Thanks for the reminder! And, GREAT tutorial!

[@andrewgaughen9310]

Very nice work! It amazing how much the sculpt "pops" with the dry-brushing and black wash. Any suggesting for weathering "leather" on figures, black and brown esp?

[@LandspeederLuke]

I use the same technique with a black wash, a little bit of a yellow wash over top also helps it look like brown leather

[@gavinh4204]

Awesome tutorial! One question though, do you have to use like Mr. Super clear to seal the wash and the tiny details you add?

[@LandspeederLuke]

I didn’t but it can’t hurt

[@cboyd1976]

Great video. Did you apply your Mr. Super Clear Matt before doing your wash and painting?

[@alexpintea]

@LandspeederLuke at 5:39 why is yellow hard to paint on?

[@HashiyoHashi]

Do you wash/scrub your figures before putting paint on it and do you find that you have to put a finish/varnish on it after to keep the paint from coming off?

[@LandspeederLuke]

Nope you can do a matte spray after

[@blaisebear6850]

If you’re planning on doing heavier paint layers as opposed to just light weathering I would def wash the figure first with hot water water and dish soap. Out of the box they often have a factory mold release that makes it difficult for paint to adhere.

[@migue0livares]

Did you first apply the matte varnish and then do the weathering?

[@adumbs_customs]

Would a rag work instead of a sponge?

[@LandspeederLuke]

Yep!

[@carlosacin5458]

I was wondering if you applied the matte spray at the beginning of the process or at the end, although in the video you don't say anything about it, but I detect that it is applied to at least in Saw's face. And I was also wondering if you apply the matte spray on the troopers armor as well, so it's not so shiny. I love your collection and your work. Thank you very much and greetings!

[@LandspeederLuke]

I did it on his face before and then the entire body after (if I remember correctly). For NedB I did it before so the wash would stick better.

[@carlosacin5458]

Thank you so much,@@LandspeederLuke! Both figures (Saw and NedB) ended far way better than they are straight out of the box. And, what about the troopers? Do you also apply the matte spray over their shiny armor? Congrats again for your great work!
