@@inquisitorinluzifera3406 I got the majority of my Flesh eater Courts army used on ebay. Saved tons of money. I tried isopropyl the other day. It worked really well. What army are you working on currently? Still nids? They look really fun to paint.

@@RowanElletson My pleasure. Simply green works well. I ordered some isopropyl alcohol online and hope to try it out this weekend. Might have to update my video if it works well. What minis are you stripping paint off of?

@@brianshobbyspace3569 I bought a gravis captain (space marine) on eBay that had too many coats of paint to paint over

@@twigius5690 it is a household cleaner that is safe for cleaning almost anything. I first saw it in an infomercial back in the 90’s.

@brianshobbyspace3569 thanks, I'll keep an eye out next time I need to take the paint off some plastic 😁

@ you mentioned using isopropyl alcohol, what percentage is necessary to get the paint off? I have some in my house for cleaning tables but it’s only 70% alcohol. Is that strong enough?

@brianshobbyspace3569 honestly not sure what is required, the stuff I get is 100%. Also if you plan on using it, don't use it on resin models, they go all floppy, learnt that the hard way.

@@Gerben972 glad that it’s working for you. I use mine all the time.

@@skeith1543 green stuff can get messy. I feel your pain but it sounds like your project came out alright. A muddy troglodon is a great idea.

@@SaucisseMasquee7 it was a piece of plastic that looks like fake wood. In Japan it is sold in home centers, or anywhere that sells materials for fixing up your home. I think it is supposed to be used where the flooring meets the walls. I haven’t got a clue what it is actually called.

@@brianshobbyspace3569 Thanks for the reply ! I think i see what you mean, I'll look for that in my local hardware store

@@senormayorenunfuton4656 it’s not the best glue but it’s cheap, easy to get, and works well enough.

@@chaosfrogs7 Thank you very much. What are you painting these days? I am currently painting some kitbashed varanguard ro go with Belakor.

@@WhataboutTRUTH I didn't use a drybrush palette or wet palette for a long time. They are not essential items but theu can make it a more enjoyable experience.

@@diyfireking thanks. What are you working on these days?

@@grendelsoft Two of the best past times ever. Do you like 40K, Sigmar, Both?

@@brianshobbyspace3569 played 40K when rogue trader came out, then quit, picked it back up on the second edition, quit again, and now here I am just starting out again in 10th. I will say that Horus Heresy is what sparked my interest again. I’m just starting a Sigmar army also. I started disc golf three years ago during the pandemic.

@@antoninbenes2846 thanks.

@@fatrhino Thanks for the kind words. I am looking forward to saving up for some kroxigor. Also, I guess I need a shelf they are just sitting in a clear plastic box now.

@@BronnBlackwater good luck and have fun with the project. I painted his wings and body before attaching them together.

@@wingwalker007 I haven't had any growth or mold on mine. I do frequently wash the sponge with soapy water and rinse and dry the rest of the palette as well.

how do you like the redgrass palette?

I used my toaster oven. I think the setting was 500w and I slowly cooked them for 20 minutes.

How is the castle set? Sounds big. I was thinking of getting the marketplace set one of these days.

Getting over that fear of f@€king up a mini is hard to overcome. But, you can do it. I did. Now, I love trying to paint my big special models. They aren't always perfect nor exactly what I had expected them to be but, I'm proud of them. You can do it.

@@brianshobbyspace3569 thanks for the encouragement!

Thank you very much.

The models are old but i still use and love mine.

Thanks

Thanks.

I remember your chaos terminators. They looked cool.

Thanks for the praise and encouragement.

Thanks

Thanks. It’s super simple to do and helps so much when painting.

Thanks for the kind reply. The salamander and chameleons I got from Etsy. I don’t remember the seller’s name, sorry. The chameleons were super fun to paint. I tried to be brave and do something different with them. They are probably my favorite unit. I’m glad I tried something new. In regards to your questions. The time it takes to make a video depends on if I have a mental roadmap when starting filming. If I film in order it’s pretty simple to cut the video. It takes longer if I just film willy-nilly. Also, a script helps spreed things up. I edited this video in about 2 hours. Which is probably too long. Was I nervous? Yes! Every video that I make makes me feel nervous. But, the communities kindness has been super helpful to feel comfortable in my own skin.

@@brianshobbyspace3569 Great to hear about the amazing community. I'd love to try make similar videos of my own one day, although my funding for things such as cameras is limited and I'm only 15. I think that it's great that you tried something new with the chameleons, i think that that's something i need to do a bit more of honestly. My query about the water effects on the bastiladon's base still stands, it looks like resin but I can't quite tell, id love to see how it was done.

@@twigius5690 wow, sorry about that, I totally spaced out and forgot the water effect question. Before doing the water, I painted up the whole base to completion, then I put a clear coat of spray on it. After that I dabbed blue, green and torqoise randomly in the water area. I used UV resin for the water. I put some on the base then cured it. then some more and cured it. I have a cheapo 3 dollar UV light. The UV resin is clear resin that I got at the Japanese dollar store. I didn't use much resin. The resin technique is pretty much the same as the ice bases that I do. But, the ice bases have a black under coat. Water has a white under coat so that it looks brighter. You could do the toilet paper water technique that I used in my Troglodon video.

Thank you very much.

Yeah, I know. I was feeling cheeky when I made that thumbnail. I was hoping that it might get some attention from the algorithm. I have another that I plan on replacing it with tomorrow. Thanks for the feedback.

it'll be really funny when people see this comment after it gets replaced, wondering what it looked like before

@@twigius5690 maybe I should just keep it this way.

But thanks for the video, it was helpful!

Thanks for the heads up.

Glad to be some help. A cigar box would be a really cool dry palette, too. Great idea.

I didn't use glue for most of the project. It stays together really well on its own. I did use glue on a few pieces of the roof so that it stays together when it's removed. I used cheap craft store wood glue on those pieces. If your son is going to use it often, putting some glue in joints could be a good idea. Good luck with the project.

Thank you very much.

Yup, their heads were in their chests. easyily fixed problem that GW probably should have spotted before releasing these minis. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I hope that it works well for you.

@brianshobbyspace3569 are you happy with the size?

@@Gokkee it would be nice if it was larger but, it works fine as it is.

Wow! Thanks for the praise and for the amazing tip. When I got my green stuff I separated it into strips about 1 inch long. That way everytime I used it I wouldn't be exposing it all to air... despite that, it still got stiff. Next time I use it I will use a dab of vaseline. That would have made moulding a lot easier. Thanks again.

I've always wanted to do a dread saurian using an indominus rex toy from Jurassic World. But, that model isn't even supported anymore so I sort of gave up that ambition. But, it still lives in the back of my mind.

Thank you.

Thanks.

I believe so, yes. As long as you use GW parts and hand make the rest it should be alright. If you use 3D printed pieces or bits of dinosaur toys then I think that wouldn't be admissible. I would ask around at a local store if you have one to double check all this. They would probably have a better understanding of tournaments than I do.

Too true, sorry about that. I have a bit of a painting on camera complex. I'm no pro... will try to get an action shot in a future vid. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment.
