This was very informative and helpful. I would personally love more videos like this. You’ve become one of my favorite painters on TH-cam due to the combination of weathering and “grim” effects as well as big punchy colors and use of fleuro colors. It’s a fantastic effect
I'm planning on doing recesses on a Tau Devilfish with oil pinwashing. A shop in every city here in New Zealand sells Windsor & Newton paints at a good price. Planning on getting white and black to mix into a mid tone grey (W&N grey is too dark for this). Then later I can use the white to pin wash a Stealth Team based in black to get it into the recesses so I can do the glowing recesses stealth look. The Filtering and Streaking technique here sound like something I want to put on my Devilfish too. I'm wanting to give it battle damage, drilled in bulletholes, and blood flowing down from behind one of the side doors where someone exiting the Devilfish got unlucky before the door was closed again
Psa for everyone doing oil washes the quality of your oil matters much much more than in any other step with oil. Similarly to how bad miniature paint like the og warpaints don’t like thinning student grade or even regular grade oil paint like winton from winsor and newton don’t thin down as well and can leave a bad texture from separating as they aren’t as densely pigmented. Abteilung is always a good option but in terms of availability all around the world at local art shops your best bets will be the gamblin artist grade and the winsor and newton artist grade oil paints. They are marginally more expensive but since you are buying so much paint and you will use so little during washes and you only need like 3 maybe 4 oil paints for pin washing (lamp black, burnt umber, sienna, and maybe a cold tone like a violet or prussian blue) its an investment well worth it
Same way I did the armour :) just laid down some masking tape, used the chipping fluid, and painted the red ontop. I wasn't worried about damaging the paint underneath as I had sealed it with Varnish at that point

Thank you mate. I really appreciate it!

Sounds like a perfect use case and test piece for the Oils :)
Such a great tutorial! You are quickly becoming one of my favorite Painting TH-camrs
Thank you!!
Looks awesome!
Thanks!

How did you get the red stripe to "chip" effect?
Same way I did the armour :) just laid down some masking tape, used the chipping fluid, and painted the red ontop. I wasn't worried about damaging the paint underneath as I had sealed it with Varnish at that point
@@PaintByAz ah so its the same process, i wasn't sure if you could still apply the chip paint after sealing it the first time
sorry its not related to the video topic but who made that tau proxy? i really like the sculpt
It's a reposed farsight, with some arms from TaroModelmaker :) Video on him will be out soon enough
What do you do with your leftover thinned oils?
Honestly usually just throw them out. It takes such little oil/thinner to create a wash, the oils I've bought years ago are not even 1/10th used
@@PaintByAz ok that's what I've been doing, I've been soaking up what's left over with a paper towel and tossing that 😅
How dare you use Bob Ross to promote your lack of talent.
