Achieving such a result in this miniature with few details is an absolute masterpiece. The face alone is a work of art in itself.
Thank you Michael! I actually think they did a really good job with sculpting Han's face :)
I'm really happy to find your channel as I'm starting with SWL a few weeks ago. This weekend Han Solo is on my workstation and is painted with the help of your fantastic tutorial. Only the duster coat is painted in another way to match my defenders of echo base.
Fantastic! Thank you, sir! 😀
Han looks ready to say "Get off my plane!"
Wait, wrong movie.
Excellent work as usual. Definitely can't wait for Boba. Holding off on painting him for your guidance.
Ha ha - Thanks a lot Michael! 😀
Why wrong movie? th-cam.com/video/DDGpwuMAmVs/w-d-xo.html ;)
Might be the best Harrison Ford looking mini i've seen. Very nice. I love the high contrast highlights too. Makes those important features pop. I also have to say it is truly incredible how you keep your brushes SO darn fine and pointy. I have that same R&C brush that I clean regularly that isn't anywhere near the surgical tool yours is. Most impressive. Keep up the great video series.
Thanks a lot John! I couldn't agree more about the figure. It wasn't until I applied the zenithal highlights that I fully appreciated what a strong likeness they'd managed to achieve. Regarding the brushes, since filming this I've actually switched to the R&Co Series 8 (still size 2) which I'm really enjoying; it has a beautiful point, but a little more firmness and "snap".. 😀
@@Sorastro I wish I could get those brushes but they're not available in the US. Are Windor and Newton brushes equivalent?
Awesome video as always. I was just about to start my han so this was perfect timing. Really glad to see some legion videos agian, thanks!
Thanks a lot Ryan! I'm glad you liked it 😀
Awesome - another Sorastro video! Thanks for these wonderfully detailed and enjoyable guides! :)
Thank you Mazer! You're very welcome 😀
Wow!! His face details are absolutely amazing! I have to say the sculpt is really great and detailed but your paintjob brings these details to shine!
Thanks Christian! I think they really did an outstanding job on this sculpt; even just after the prime and zenithal highlights you can see how nicely detailed the features are 😀
Absolutely amazing! Cheers!
Thanks so much! 😀
Great video once again. I particularly liked the way you walked through the stripes on Han's pants. I also liked all the subtle shading you did on his overall figure to make him pop when the color scheme didn't appear to have much color variation when you look at Han Solo in photographs online. I love this painting series and I look forward to the next one.
Thanks again buddy! :)
Great tutorial! I specially liked the tones in the chin and the rest of the face. The whole set is amazing, well done
Many thanks Luis! 😀
Amazing as always! A real inspiration
Thanks man! 😀
Only person I know that you can follow along with easy steps, and then when you are done you go "hey wait I don't know how to do NMM, oh wait maybe I do because I just did it without even knowing it." Thank you Sorastro for all that you do.
Ha - thanks a lot Rob! I really appreciate that 😀
Awesome and helpful video! I just got Han a few days ago and I'm even more excited to paint him now.
Fantastic! Thank you Jason 😃
Finallyyyy 😁
Time to start, I would love to post it here ...but I don’t now how, got a beautiful sculpt from greenstuff made by a good freuend of mine last week
Good impressions! Just got this week my Han Solo Mini. Great painting and very good instruction. Thanks
Thanks Chris! I'm really glad you liked the video 😀
Exquisite, thank you for this!
Thanks mate! I'm pleased you enjoyed it 😀
You really are a huge fan of dark sea blue! You use it for almost every colour combination 😁
Great miniature, again. I'm glad the video was finally approved.
Ha ha - true! Thanks mate 😀
Woo! Just in time. Can't wait to see any of the changes you do on boba fett. I've still got so much legion to paint. Those troopers can be a pain sometimes when you have 4 or so squads.
Thanks mate! I'm looking forward to sharing what I've done with Boba Fett 😀
Fantastic job here and easy to follow! I'm having so much fun painting Mr, Solo! I really enjoy your videos! Thank you for posting.
Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed my Solo :)
@@Sorastro I sure did (saw what you did there, by the way!). I have a podcast that is geared for the beginner hobbyist/painter/gamer. Since I started last year (on 2/15!), it has slowly grown and the podcast has actually served to bridge the gap between beginners (present company included) and seasoned commissioned painters. The community this podcast is building on Instagram is wonderful! I want to ask: Would you be willing to be a guest on the podcast to share your hobby story, talk about any projects you'd like to share, and most importantly, offer some encouragement to my listeners? I would be honored and delighted if you would be willing. Please let me know. Thank you very much for your consideration and I look forward to your response. :)
Merci ! 😍😁😁 encore une superbe vidéo ! 😉😊
Merci! 😃
Super Cool!
Thanks Marcello! 😀
The shade part is always my favorite
Ha - it sure is nice seeing the contrast magically boost with such a simple technique :)
Your work on the hair is particularly outstanding. I mean, who in their right mind puts purple on hair?! But it bloody works! I used your tips for red hair (Nelly the bar maid) and it turned out really good. You rock 🤘🏻
Ha ha - thanks a lot Neil! I'm glad you liked the hair 😀
Nice once again . This figure really look like han solo .
Thanks a lot Guillaume! 😀
For a moment I thought he was going to paint on the chin scar, :) Good job again sir.
Ha ha - thanks mate! :)
Ahhh yes, The Maestro has gotten his hands on the 80s and 90s sex symbol and improved upon it. Harrison is in very good hards. Thank you Sorastro.
Thanks buddy! 😀
Awesome paint job! I personally prefer the Han Solo sculpt from Imperial Assault that you painted. It looks a lot more like Harrison Ford than the Legion sculpt. Both beautifully painted and look awesome.
Thanks man! 😀
Yeah. Exceptionally well painted, but the sculpt looks more like General Hux than Han Solo ;)
I think viewers seem somewhat divided on the sculpt, and I fall into the camp that loves it! :)
keen to see Boba Fett though. Been waiting for him. :)
Thanks mate! I can't wait to share him with you 😀
I am too of course, but not a huge fan of the pose.
Boba Fett? Boba Fett? Where??
he looks very mad scientist in that coat.
My favourite Star Wars character, followed by Boba Fett. :-) Why did you use a different technique for the coat than the one that you used for the rebel commandos?
Awesome tutorial. Very useful! Using a dry pallete - do you always drop in some retarder medium?
Thank you Zectari! No I don't always use retarder.. but will usually show in the video if I do :)
Do you plan to release a guide (whether video or pdf) of Sabine when she releases? If so, I can’t wait to see how you paint her complex armor design :)
Hi Daisuke! I may well cover Sabine in my next Legion video :)
MY man...great video as always, Is there anyway you could do a quick more detailed video on how you did the forest bases....also the products you use on the bases are from a few different companies and I am having trouble tracking down some of the stuff as I live in the U.S. any help would be awesome
Thanks Stephen! Regarding the bases, I tend to skim over that in the later videos as I've already gone into it in some detail in the earlier episodes; if you skip to the "Finishing Touches" stages of the first few videos I think you'll find the extra detail you're after. Regarding products, I believe Woodland Scenics are US based and they make a wide range of excellent scenic products: woodlandscenics.woodlandscenics.com/ They're not especially cheap, but will serve as a good starting point. GamerGrass is also quite popular amongst hobbyists at the moment: www.gamersgrass.com/ and they have a nice range of tufts etc. Beyond that, any local model railway type stores will also likely stock things like turf, and static grass etc... I hope this helps :)
I’m so amazed by how you were able to do the pant leg stripes. Mine are much chunkier and it was incredibly difficult...
Thanks Andy! I think the slender Rosemary & Co brush was a big help there 😀
Three members of Crimson Dawn disliked this video.
Nicely done. Your obsession with details would drive me nuts. One thing though: personally I think the highlights on the boots are a bit to much and make it look a bit like a comic figure. But that's just me ;)
Thanks Tim! Yes, the boots have a somewhat stylised look that won't be for everyone I'm sure 😀
Hey, just wandering what brushes you use?
Hi! I mainly use the Rosemary & Co Series 8 (size 2): www.rosemaryandco.com/series-8-pointed-round?u=21774e :)
What would you recommend as a Vallejo model color alternative for the bugmans glow?
Hi Dan! If you have access to the Game Color line I'd suggest Tan (VGC 72.066).. :)
@@Sorastro Thank you for the response. That works!
@@danrafferty4346 No problem! 😃
Well done. Worth the wait. Just finished my AT-RT, terrain and bases. Got any hints for a monochromatic pink paint scheme for storm troopers before I give them to my buddy.
Thanks man! Pink Stormtroopers? You're on your own there 😆
top-1
Thank you 😀
So you Plan to pick up some Rising Sun Minis ? :)
Hi Aleksandra! I'd love to paint some Rising Sun at some point, but have more than enough to keep me busy for the time being.. :)
Do you ever use Vallejo Game colours?
Hi Max! Yes - I have quite a large set of the VGC. For some reason I just tend to default to the VMC range :)
I notice you've stopped using the Everlasting Wet Palette? Did you just end up not liking it?
Hi Pippa! Not at all - I really love the wet palette, I just don't feel I have to use it for every mini (I did use it extensively for the Abominarat in the last video) 😀
What brushes you use in paintings?
Hi there! I currently use the Rosemary and Co Series 8 Size 2 for most things :)
@@Sorastro TY
Nice job as always im not sure about the coat though by al means im no better painter at all im just honnest when i say that i dont see the pattern im afraid looks more like a verry dirty coat . None the less i love your work keep m comming
Thanks Danny! I wanted the camo to look pretty blurry and indistinct but you could of course make the design as sharp as you like 😀
I went all in on the Dark Souls: The Board Game, so lets make a deal. I will ship you my minis (which are awesome), you paint them up for a new paint series. Ill cover the cost of shipping and we both walk away happy!
Ha ha - I actually have the Dark Souls minis primed and ready - I just haven't had time to cover them yet 😀
@@Sorastro mine for practice then? =) you are indeed the best.
Damn, that face looks good!
Thanks buddy! The face was clearly the bit I really wanted to focus on in this video, so I'm glad you like it 😀
When can we hope for Boba Fett?
Hi Chris! Boba will be landing either next week or the week after at the very latest 😀
i would've gone for a light base, washes and highlights, i didn't like the coat.
Thanks for the honest feedback El Biko :)
Looks like Han shot first
Was there ever any doubt..? 😂
@@Sorastro well....actually...in 2012 George Lucas officially said, that Han never did :( It's only fan's dreams
With a final shot from above with pure white
Then he went back on it I thought @@KlukvaMiniatures
Excellent job, but I think you made him look too much like Indiana Jones 😉
Ha ha thank you! (You do know they're played by the same actor - right? 😂)
Another great example of a video which, whilst being of a subject I'm not too interested in, contains some really useful techniques. You have a particularly uncanny habit of doing techniques which I am pondering myself. ie. black leather for a zombicide hero and flecktarn camo. Let's try and experiment in mind control (World of Smooooog and Aaaaarcadia Queeeeest, World of Smooooog and Aaaaarcadia Queeeeest, World of Smooooog and Aaaaarcadia Queeeeest, World of Smooooog and Aaaaarcadia Queeeeest,.... feeling anything yet?...... I'll shut up now.
Thanks a lot Milo! I'm really glad you found the video useful 😀
the poses are great, but face sculpts for this game are trash compared to I.A. which is weird considering they have more room to work with...
Hi Ian! I actually think they did a really great job with Han 😀
