This is a wonderful video. Thank you for the courage to film and post it. I've noticed a similar undercurrent of people in this hobby who use it to help settle their minds and improve their mental health. I even teach a course at conventions called "The Mental Game of Painting" where many of the issues you discussed come up regularly. We need to talk more about mental health in this hobby, and I truly appreciate you and this contribution to the discussion.

Damn dude, thiis looks great!!

It's amazing how many miniature painters release videos similar to yours. I definitely find peace when I'm painting minis. So thank you for sharing. I've been through some terrible stuff in the past three years and this hobby helps me reach a peaceful place. It's not automatic, however, for me. I begin to reach that peaceful place when I lower the magnifier and accept the challenge.

I no the video is old but speaking to models that just look grimdark bestaraim miniatures make some really scary dark characters, got one coming in the mail can’t wait to grimdark it!

What is the citadel paint you used to shade the base? Cant quite hear what you said other than sepia and the footage is out of focus

Could anyone tell me If the Vallejo is good with masking tape? I've been having a very difficult time finding paint/tape that won't result in peeled primer/paint

Any recommendations for the foam at all

This looks absolutely fantastic. I am going try them out for my Blanchitsu Inquisitor project!

I love both of those primers. Never had a problem with either.

Haven't tried the Vallejo primer yet but I've seen a lot of reviews really bashing it? I really like the Stynylrez but It seems to be a real bitch to clean out of my airbrush. I ended up using lacquer thinner but it's still a chore.

"im not satisfied" model looks great

I use both primers myself and love them both. I have been using the Badger Stynlrez for much longer then the Vallejo. I have a few bottles that have never frozen of the Stynlrez and they are nearing six or seven years old and still shoot just fine. Good video and thanks for the info.

This has been my experience as well. Some colors of primer may not do well when applied with a brush, but I’ve never had any issues when using an airbrush.

I'm new to certain aspects of this hobby but not entirely. My recent trip over the internet while doing some research tells me that Vallejo products seem to need a little extra shakig and mixing. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a lot of user error here. As I'm replacing my old Apple barrel paints with better things, I invested $5 in some glass beads to use as agitators. I expect that will help me get ahead of some of these reddit complaints. An upside of getting into this now is that Vallejo is refreshed much of their hobby product line -- whether that is some of the formulas or simply the labeling -- it's easy for me to be sure that I'm getting product that has not been sitting in a sun-bleached paint rack for 8 years at a game shop.

Btw is Ba-ye-ho

I used to get spattering with vallejo white,.was advised to try stylerez. Never had a problem again. Years later still using stylerez however i wonder if it was down to my airbrush skills and i got better at the time i switched primers.

Really informative video. Thanks.

I used Vallejo primer for 2 years and had some issues, always using a bit of thinner and still clogging up, then I accidentally used "to much" thinner and it works like a charm. I do not know the other, but if you use more thinnner on the Vallejo primer, it is just working beautifully. Only rubbing off when a thin coat, I am always doing 2 coats, which I think you always should, as to much handling with your oily fingers will rub off everything, especially if you hold the mini at the same part over and over

YOU GLUED IT TOGETHER?!?! The point of it is to be able to put a players character inside it, what the crap dude!

Hello, where could I get the file stl to print the house, I am not able to find it.thanks

Thank you so very much, I used to do our garden but as my disability became worse, I had to stop you have made me do smaller things, and as I am disabled, you have encouraged me to try and do smaller things indoors, thank you so so very much, all the very best peter martin

Thank you for just showing the painting with clear concise instructions/tips/examples. watching the dude from army painter paint is almost painful and his videos are like an hour long.

The fact that he spills stuff and doesn't edit it out shows you can trust his work lol.

⭐️ This technique rocks ! Airbrush gives a beautiful natural looking blend - great video⭐️ thanks 👍

Most people just want to hear themselves talk and/or sound authoritative. They are a joke. I have never had a problem with Vallejo and it is a fine primer. It produces a fine finish that is a great base for paint. As you said, I don’t know what people are doing to it. Great review.

Dude the painting is gorgeous, amazing work!

how the base rotation is limited at 45degrees

The problem with this style is that people who are not very experienced with the hobby confuse STYLE and METHOD. To me, style is all about color palette, overall feel and certain staples, for example it can be more or less realistic, use more or less texture on flat details and so on. And method is basically what techniques you use to achieve the result. And you can be as complex with your methods while aiming for basically any style. You could aim for grimdark style with both noob friendly and golden daemon tier techniques. But there is an ongoing misconception that grimdark us about, basically, aiming low and overusing drybrush and washes, heavy use of wash-based rust effects and complete lack of highlights aside from very basic. Thus most of the time miniatures look bleak and dark not because of actually good combination of colors and purposeful use of techniques, but because they are, quite frankly, look like undercooked crap with now readable contrast, a way to avoid actual learning how to paint, a way to cut corners. I'm not trying to gatekeep what's considered good or not, and I'd rather have everyone around play quick and dirty "grimdank" style instead of grey plastic, but this idea of confusing style and method needs to stop.

It’s 2024 and I found this video because people are still saying the same things. Thanks for not being a fanboy about it and checking for the rest of us new to airbrushing.

Great skills ❤

Hello, very good video. Could you please tell me what the base color of the horse in the video is, at minute 6:04 . Thank you so much. Greetings from the Kingdom of Spain.

The problem with Valejo Primer is usually on larger kits. Even if you wash your kits and I do, Vallejo doesn't sand well. Also if you are working on a kit that you are going to mask over for paint Vallejo is bad about pulling off with the tape. I switched to Stynylrez problem solved.

More content please. Missing you man. Even just a video showing us you're around :)

I sure miss your videos, hope you’re planning on making a come back

Wraith Bone over Macragge blue is best for this, in my most humble opinion.

Looks great! What white do you use as primer?

Love this. Going to try it on my Punga Savage Orc Bloodbowl Team

Now I see this video/comments. I have been trying to use the valejo on soft plastic models (hero quest) and have had a nightmare of peeling and reactivation even in some cases. I just switched to badger this weekend and it's working flawlessly. soooo much better and the paint sticks to it too

I find this video to be hopeful and motivational! I have some creative hobbies, that might be helpful to me, which I sometimes avoid pursuing due to fear of people judging me. I am aware some people do not seem to consider creative endeavors to be productive enough to be worth pursuing. It is very helpful to hear your perspective and how your creative hobby has been productive in helping you to cope with mental health challenges. I think that being creative more regularly will help me as well! Thank you!

i found out what grimdark was about 3 days ago and looking for examples and videos now it's funny you picked this ork beastboss as your test model. This was the model my wife got me last month to start up the hobby again after 20 years and with that, the first model I've painted in a very, very long time I'm about to start a hellbrute now, grimdark as hell. I'm gonna try!

Why not gay biel tan wash?

What size of brush are you using? I'm new and using AP's Base coating brush but it feels like I just don't get enough contrast paint on there. The coat gets too thin and I need to reload the brush every 2 seconds.

Cheating!!!!! This is why I can't stand slap chop. Takes no skill whatsoever.

Womderful paintjob and Video! Question: At the end you show a more reddish horse. Could you remember the colors used to achieve this very reddish fur tone?

I hope your weight loss journey has gone well!

warpfiend grey seems too dark on my minis when compared to the video, are you sure its the right colour? right now mine are looking really dark

Follow up question, what brush size do I need? (Yes, I am clueless)

I have painted once in my life, I will try it one more time before giving up. Is there a Vallejo replacement for Shade: Seraphim Sepia (its double the price of the Vallejo inks)?

Yeah.... my Stynlrez looks absolutely nothing like that. Much thicker and gloopier and 100% will not spray out of a .4 without thinning....

Man. Thanks for that video. It helps me a lot today. I'm not playing Idoneth (yet, because, yes I want to someday), right now I'm doing bases for Warmachine Brineblood Marauders and I wanted bases somewhat like that. And your video is a GREAT help !
