Thank you very much, I m working on a flesh eater court project that I've set on a frosty cainhurst-like castle, so this video is quite helpful. As always your tutorials are awesome, keep it up!
Love how this turned out, really find all your guides so helpful I know you did a grassy base but a dense forest or some undergrowth around ruins would be amazing to see and help a lot!
I'm just learning to paint minis and I Literally just ordered my first Space Wolves and wanted to make their bases look like their homeworld. This tutorial's perfect and I can't thank you enough!
Hey, I recently got into painting mini's (3D printed ones, but my friend is trying to recruit me to Warhammer) and I especially love your environmental, glow and shading videos + you have a really great way of explaining it all. Would you be able to do a video on woodlike surfaces, like chests or barriers or something similiar? Please keep doing what you are doing, you're awesome
This looks really good, thanks for sharing! One other thing I've seen done that I think looks really good is tinting the recesses of the snow in shades of blue using thin washes. I first saw it on the channel the Painting Baron. Have been trying to figure out the right ratio/technique with some cheaper paints - planning a snow board, so want to avoid GW prices. Also, depending on the snow products you use and the paints you use on the base, it can be a good idea to varnish before putting any snow on. I've left some bases to dry for days, put one of my snow concoctions on, come back later and it looks like the paint from the ground has stained the snow from the inside out.
Thanks for watching The blue tint is a cool idea, I’ll give it a go for sure 👍 As for having the surface paint stain the snow, I’ve not had that happen before with the products I use, but it makes sense it could be a risk if the water in the PVA reactivates the paint underneath. Something for people to be aware of, thanks for sharing 👍
You could potentially even take advantage of the staining thing to do the blue tint - just put down a bit of a blue wash/contrast where you're going to put the snow, let it half dry and then slap the snow on top. Might make it easier to avoid overdoing it on the top. I'm gonna have to try that now!
Not sure if someone else has mentioned it already, but it is worth adding white ink or white paint to the PVA and flock mix for the snow as PVA can yellow over time so that bit of white paint will keep it nice and snowy for longer :)
Great video as always. Im building an army that i want to have fighting in the snow so i will definitely be using this. On a side note can you make a video on wet blending? It would be amazing to get your explaination for that topic. Thank you!
You mentioned the airbrush at the start, and I was wondering if as a sort of subsection on thinning you might have any thoughts on air pressure and how it relates to the viscosity and what you should be setting your regulator to. I use the airbrush a lot since I tend to do more scale armor than miniatures, and the airbrush finish is amazing on flat panels of armor (which you got a lot of on tanks, planes, and mechs). Your paint thinning video is the thing that demystified thinning to me after hearing years of 'skim milk consistency' without really knowing why and I was hoping you might have similar insights on air pressure--knowing 'why' you do something really makes it easier to do in practice.
Hey ! I just found your channel, at the same time as I'm getting back to painting minis. I was looking to paint some very old models that have a shit ton of paint on them. I want to strip them as I know mu painting has improved a lot since then. I was wondering if you are planning to make a comprehensive video about stripping minis and maybe whole armies ?
Can I ask you, do you get your snow flock online? if so what brand would you recommend and where to get it, im just kind of new to the miniature painting and just need some advice I wanna paint some death korps of krieg in the snow
Honestly, you could use either or. I like to use nuln oil as it gives a more desaturated end result and the darker finish contrasts better against the bright snow. It also tied in with the darker tones of my army.
i find drybrushing so hard to get down pat. going to start practicing on a bunch of crisis suits, as i think doing the edge highlights with drybrush will go quickly and look quite alright.
Haha! Shhh! 🤫 Actually, the use of paper towel in this instance is on purpose, because I want a chalkier, stone like finish. Rather than the silky smooth Artis Opus drybrushing. I will do a fundamentals video on drybrushing and include the ultimate method for sure 👍

Seriously some of the best miniature painting videos on TH-cam. Keep at it!
Thanks you 🙏
Really appreciate it
what I like is the approach and the various steps and not just a "use this material" video. well done.
That is exactly what I was looking for to add to my upcoming Krieg project!
Nice one.
Great minds think alike.
I’m going to be painting my Krieg on snow bases too
Thanks so much for the shout out James. You have done an amazing job with them.
Very welcome mate. They’re awesome bases, they deserve a wider audience 👍
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides Thanks man! Looking forward to filling out the ranges. Appreciate the support

Great timing
I hope it proves to be useful for you 👍
Love how this turned out, really find all your guides so helpful
I know you did a grassy base but a dense forest or some undergrowth around ruins would be amazing to see and help a lot!
Great video. I love the tip about using lahmian medium in the crack so bind the snow powder to the base. 👍🏻
Thank you very much, you taught me how to paint pure white
Thanks for watching
Really glad you’re finding the channel helpful 👍
I'm just learning to paint minis and I Literally just ordered my first Space Wolves and wanted to make their bases look like their homeworld. This tutorial's perfect and I can't thank you enough!
Some seriously awesome content. I’d love to see a video showing how to paint bone
Great tips in this, thanks for sharing. I made my own snow effect using matte medium and bicarbonate of soda.
Thanks man
Bicarbonate of soda is good and the perfect scale. The only thing I’ve found with it, is it can yellow over time. Have you found this?

@@-moongorilla- very true!
Love it when bouncing stuff around like this generates an idea to try.
Let me know how your experiments go 👍

Thank you
I do have more fundamentals videos in the pipeline.
They just take so much work to put together theyre not quick to make. So, bear with me 👍

Can you make a Nurgle base ?
Ooo! Nurgle base? Now that’s a cool idea
Yeah man, on the list 👍
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides , thank you Bro 🫶💪
Very Nice thank you bro
Thanks for watching man 🤛
Can I ask you, do you get your snow flock online? if so what brand would you recommend and where to get it, im just kind of new to the miniature painting and just need some advice I wanna paint some death korps of krieg in the snow
Curious why you used nuln oil instead of Agrax earth shade?
Honestly, you could use either or.
I like to use nuln oil as it gives a more desaturated end result and the darker finish contrasts better against the bright snow.
It also tied in with the darker tones of my army.
Kind of random but what gloves do you use?
I use latex free gloves, a tattooist friend of mine recommended. I’ll try and post up a link 👍
great thanks! @@BrushstrokePaintingGuides

Byron wouldn't be impressed with your drybrushing technique 😅
