Interesting and quick technique, but I think that you picked the wrong figure to demonstrate it on. Things that glow from within are bright in the recesses and dark on the raised detail. When you paint a fire elemental, the recesses are bright yellow, and you drybrush the raised bits in black, with red and orange in between.
I completely agree. Not something I’d really considered like this until afterwards was in a discord and where images of this model prompted other people to post their Barghest and once I saw how other people read the model I thought the same thing. There is a lava monster kinda thing in the game yet I will paint where I’m going to look into a technique like that. Thank you for watching and commenting!
I’ll trade Ultimate Knitting ideas for likes and comments on future content. I think this will be an agreeable arrangement for us both. Pleasure doing business with you!
One tip for using washes like this - if you want to thin a wash, like so that the raised surfaces don't get shaded as much, mix in some airbrush thinner with the wash.
I have been doing this since contrast came out. I find that using other colours help with the pre shade, e.g a pink brown for yellows, a red purple for skin colours etc. I generally use TARGOR RAGESHADE from GW.
Interesting. I’m assuming nuln oil isn’t tremendously chemically different than army painter shades. Might need to find an excuse to give it a try thank you!
This poor wolf definitly looks sick :D I am not a painter so my points might be useless but I think that your figurine is lacking some colors for the eyes/mouth. You might have taken a bit too much paint from the flanks too. Really nice overall result anyway and a nice Tchernobyl look. ;) I like the pints you used for the base. Might have been interesting to paint the same model using a normal SS technic and using a white base coat. In a Goobertown video, I also saw a SS with Black/Light Orange Brown/White undercoat. The figurine colors were more vibrant.
If you scroll around we show what it’s supposed to look like a couple times. It’s basically just lights glowing from inside the model sort of thing. But yes, he certainly seems to not be feeling the best. Lol
I'm sorry, but you totaly missed the goal... If you look at the "box art", dark and bright is the other way around. Deep areas bright, upper areas dark. That way it looks like glowing. Yours is just a green dog.
Yep. I agree. Should have been a white prime with a black dry brush. I guess I got lost in the original idea and really didn’t realize it til the whole thing was all said and done. I do appreciate you watching the video and presenting your comment in a courteous manner though, some folk have…. Not the same internet manners. Lol.
prime it black and drybrush it white. one less step to finish the mini. i realy dont like the the look of your finished dog. i even dont know why you try to promote such a weird way to paint a mini.
Well, first off it’s fun to try new stuff. Secondly it’s another tool to use to get different looks. I tried it because I felt it was the right approach for what I was trying to accomplish. Hind sight, it was not, the actual correct play would have been to prime it white and brush it black. (Even more reverse) but thanks for watching and I do appreciate your (not so) constructive criticism.
Doesn't seem like the easiest approach, and I agree; not a fan of the end result. Looks more sickly/diseased, than demonic/ghostly. Personally - I'd start with a mid-tone green as a primer, then wash dark green, then dry brush bright green, then highlights, then glow effects with bright yellow and white (focusing on the mouth and the peeks of the veins).

Argh. Stop sharing every damn hobby with me! In every comment section you are already there. Im leaving for ultimate knitting.
Please tell me ultimate knitting is a real thing!? Is it knitting while doing Xsports like skydiving or off-roading shotty in a side by side!?
@@rollemifyougottem Well it is now and Lindybeige is BANNED from it. I noted your Ideas and will definitely present them as my own tho.

Cool video! Interesting technique!
Thank you for checking it out!
It hurts my soul seeing you use craft paint. I’m not mad at you. Just disappointed.
That was last time! Reverse 1.0. lol. 2.0 we use a shade. I’m a big boy now! Lol.
@@rollemifyougottem I subscribed. I’ll be watching 👀. Lol.
Might give this little guy an update yet too. He came out as I had planned, just didn’t realize until I was don’t it was a booty plan.

ive been doing this for years using nuln oil over a white primer.
How does the nuln oil interact when applying paint overtop?
@@rollemifyougottem there's no reaction. I've never had an issue.

@@rollemifyougottem for a more subtle effect I do a 50/50 medium/nuln wash mix then apply.
Noted. I have some nuln oil (literally the only GW product I’ve ever bought) but I don’t ever use it.
