While I don’t think it will replace my enamel or oil washes, I will say that you sold me on the usefulness of this WAY more than Monument Hobby’s videos did.
Have you seen our Dread video? :D You'd be hard pressed to get a result like that with any other acrylic that easily.
Can't beat the dry time of the product, it's perfect. I also love a product that integrates with products I already have. My only complaint is the bottle size, can we please get a 500ml chungus version ;P@@MonumentHobbies
Looks like a pain in the butt. I'll stay with washes! Thanks for the look at it!
Use it with white for glow effects. Also, it's great for wet blending
I love oil washes! They’ve completely changed the way I paint models, and damn do they look good. 👍
I can’t see this replacing oil washes for me, their results are just too good for the time investment. I have a bottle coming and will try it with some army painting scenarios and some other experiments. Monument’s products are fantastic, so I suspect this will be used a fair bit once I get the hang of it.
Yeah, exactly my sentiment. Though oils are more expensive to start with, once you get or have them its basically a lifetime supply if only used for washes, and this product just doesn't do it for me. The end result after the sponging is fine, but considering the steps I'd just oil it up and strip it down. Maybe there will be other uses for it
I have sad on another channel, that I have been using "Artists medium" for a while now, to paint with Inks over a Zenithal undercoat. Acrylic ink is extremely colour dense so you need very little ink to achieve a good result. So its much cheaper doing this in the long run than using the pre mixed "contrast" style paints and I'm the one in control of how much colour I use, and trust me its not very much at all. I have small dropper bottles of my premixed medium which is 1/5 Distilled water, 1/5 flow aid and 3/5 Medium to which I add a small amount of ink.
Could you send an Amazon link to this artists medium?
I just bought Rowney acrylic matt medium from Hobbycraft here in the UK. It will probably work with almost any brand of artists acrylic medium.
By flow aid, do you mean like the paint gun flow aid or is there something else specifically?
@@AlanisonYT it's part of the Rowney artists acrylic range, so I'm assuming that all paint manufacturers have something similar. Yes it paint and ancillaries that are not as designed for miniature painting, but neither are artist oils and figures painters have used those materials for a long time now on 54mm figures. All you can do is get some samples and try them out as I did a few years ago now
Commenting at 2:59 into the video I think your issue with the Kimera might not have been their specific formulation but the fact that quinacridone is just one of the most intense pigments I've ever worked with, and blending magenta it always tends to overpower other colors/take more medium to get the effect intended.
"Newsh It" sounds like a great name for the process! Thank you for the video!
I'm not sold on the product but then again I have a hate/love relationship with other washes too. When they work it's great, when they don't it's pain. But I'm still glad to see novelty in the hobby, maybe it will eventually lead to something amazing
Thanks for your comment!
The colors are a big thing for me, too. But I like all the creative opportunities with this! I’m going to keep practicing the stamp technique and I think with practice I can create something really cool.
Sounds and looks like a good product. Might try it some time but for now I'm good with oil and acrylic washes. "Newsh it" sounds like a winner! Oh, and I have to say, I LOVE your cat getting in all the shots! So funny! Our cats will do the same thing - especially walking across a keyboard as you are trying to use it. My favorite was your hands painting through the cats legs as he stood directly in front of you at around the 8:36 minute mark! LOL Thanks for the great info and great videos!
Personally I didn’t want to deal with the toxic elements of oil washes, so once they announced this I was excited. So far, I’ve only tested it on one model and I’m not sure I liked the result, but I’m new to subtractive weathering in general and the model was not painted with that method in mind, so I need to do more tests to form a real opinion. I have a ton of Battletech mechs to paint, which I feel will be a great testing ground. Overall great video! I hadn’t really considered the sponge dabbing usage, was only really planning to use it as streaking weathering alternative.
The trick with sponges is to tear them up so you get more surface area, as the paint won't penetrate too deep unless it's really pooled on.
Overall, it's a neat product. I've got plenty of oil paints, so I don't plan on switching over, but it's nice to have a non-toxic option available!
Thanks for the review. I’m not 100% sold on this product after using streaking grime. But I guess oil washes is a different topic than the premixed grime „washes“. I guess I need to fail myself on these first. 😀
Love your channel!
Interesting video! I hadn't thought to use Newsh as a glaze. Thanks!
Cool as always 👍
We absolutely need "Newsh It" being a term :D
Thank you for making these videos showing us other options!!!!
I'm interested in seeing what this stuff can do, great and informative video again Lyla
I feel this requires a lot more work for a worse result than most enamels/oils/washes. Thanks for the info!
Agreed. Oil paints and products are nothing to fear. Turpentine has been used for centuries and unless you are Van Goh and drink it, it won't harm you. Well ventilated room and a small air purifier you are good to go.
@@lordcommanderminis WAIT. So... you're not supposed to drink it?... asking for a friend.
@@kombatwombat6579 Is that a trick question? Hahaha!
@@lordcommanderminis Hahaha, just a joke. Don't worry, I'm a responsible adult.
@@kombatwombat6579 Haha Of course. Have a great one.
If I am doing acrylics, I am moving to use speed paints over washes most of the time. Otherwise I love what I get with oil washes. You have to use something with a fine pigment and you have to experiment with how long you wait until you wipe the oil paint off the outer surfaces - some of my oil paints need a day to dry (the cheaper ones) while others need to be wiped off within hours (the more expensive ones), it just depends on the quality of paint and its properties. Gamsol is great to thin out the oils as it has very little odor and is pretty safe to use, though I still turn my paint booth on to help vent my space while using them.
really enjoy your vids . brand new to painting and your vids help me alot
I love that you named your ginger cat after a "ginger spice"... and the awesome painting and miniature tips!
Thank you for sharing them!
This stuff looks great! I love the grimdark style. I'll definitely give it a go.
Love the vid and product. Didn't even know it existed until watching, so thanks! Showed some friends the video and they all bought some too. Luckily we found some locally. We all love it, works with Vallejo game color (new and old) paints too. I've only really tried dark colors (browns, greys and black). Thanks again! love the product reviews, good or bad, keep them coming.
Cant wait to try this im going to go get newshed,
I was already planning on getting some & also trying oils so thankyou. You can cut up those sponges.
GREAT video Lyla! Loved how you used it for shadows and the stamping highlights (super cool tip)! Thank you for all the examples and tech in here!
Usually I'm too stuck in my ways to mess with all the new stuff that comes out but this stuff looks amazing, thanks for the tip
Even the four legged manager was not Impressed with this product and I'm going with the four legged manager.
Cardamom appreciates your vote of confidence in his decision making!
I'm also not sold on this. I like how you used it for layering the highlights without drybrushing, but as a wash I'm just not sure it's what I would normally go for.
your application was different than what i saw of Artis Opus, and I like that you both achieved different outcomes of the product. he used it to get a nice streaking grime, like rust and oil dripping down surfaces, while yours looks more like dust and dried mud
I must try this. That's right just Newsh it. Newsh it really good.
One thing that oil washes do especially well is darklining very fast with very little effort. Fortunately I don't have an issue with flaking.
I've been using flat acrylic flow medium and flat acrylic fluid medium. yes, they are two very different mediums. The fluid medium behaves like this Newsh does. Creates a thin, glaze like layer that is great for, well, layering. The flow medium is meant to lower the viscosity of acrylic paint and while not recommended for airbrushes, is a great base to create custom washes and weathering effects. Both are nearly 1/5 of the cost by volume than any of the miniature paint versions. I choose Liquitex but Golden is better...though the cost goes up a tad.
I was just wondering how Newsh was different from regular mediums 😂 thanks for the tip off!
@@theblackantonio Newsh gives you a MUCH longer open / working time than any other acrylic medium or retarder out there. It's truly meant to allow you to mess around with the paint to get it right with techniques like subtractive weathering like Lyla shows. If you want to make standard filters or washes, our Wash / Glaze Medium is the way to go.
@@MonumentHobbies alright, thanks! Your stuff is a bit hard to come by in my neck of the woods, but I'll keep an eye out for them
Hello my name is Marc and I just wanted to wish you and your family and your kitty kitty a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I love your channel and I do airbrush paintings you helped me through so many problems ! I had when I started ! Everything from bubbles in the cup to clogs may god bless you with health and wealth and happiness forever! And thank you for your teachings ! You rock 🤘🏻🤘🏻!!
Forever a fan
Marc ( aka EL PADRE AIRBRUSH )!
If your issue with oils is mostly the thinner, then there is a medium for oil paints that makes them water-soluble. Meaning you can thin them and clean your brushes with just water, and they keep the same oily washy properties. They also make oil paints that are 'water' compatible straight from the tube. You should try them, as the results are 100% better than this Newsh medium. I honestly didn't like the results on your model (its barely visible) and so much paint was just wasted / removed and seems not super controllable... I'd rather stick to oils or mixing acrylics with contrast medium in a controlled manner.
What's the medium you're talking about called?
@@cjlake5754 medium w by schminke but other brands like cobra have them as well. You also have direct water soluble oil paints now.
Yes. "Newsh it" is now canon! 😂
Personally, I use vallejo glaze medium and liquitex matte medium to make up my washes... a little water, and a drop of flow control does the trick.
Thanks!
I'm going to experiment with it, but I'm not sold, yet. I am excited to try it out for OSL effects though
I have used medium to make some washes with inks, but not tried this before. It does look interesting, but not for me. I have not tried oil washes, I have enough enamel and washes to do what I want. I've been experimenting with speed paints to give heavy shading or like a thick ink, and I find it works well for me, followed by highlighting.
Honestly oil washes are easier. If you have issues with the oil paint it’s probably the brand you are using. I use oil paints made for miniatures.
What Makeup sponges do you recommend. Also Can they be reused
gonna get a model and newshit as soon as i get some
It seems it's basically just a drying retarder. I had hoped it would also mess with surface tension allowing us to use capillary action on pin-washes...kinda like an enamel panel liner.
I think it's great. Mainly the goal I see of people using all over washes, oil or acrylic, combined with zenithal, is to paint armies fast. There are NO shortcuts, as far as I'm concerned...that make your models look superb, just ones that make them look 'fine' for gaming or whatever else makes a person happy getting them done. And in that regard, I have found most techniques to be tedious, especially oil washes.
Part of this comes from the idea of base coating, what...as many models as possible so the oil wash session is worthwhile? Always I'd want the option to work in smaller numbers of models and with acrylics. This certainly helps with that.
Yeah, oil paints are not my ideal painting models. I've tried it once for weather effect on a tank from a painting guide book, but couldn't handle the fumes. I've been finding acrylics and contrast as an alternatives to the Citadel shades. Newsh medium would be worth giving a go.
Nice weathering with the sponge combine!
uggggg i literly just finnished my frist batch of mins with an oil wash my one dislike of oil wash it takes to long to dry over 3 hours today i will try this as i use mostly reaper paints myself and see if i like this better but hey what about ink washes love you videos i have and am learning thank you vary much for the work you do
I hope they look good!
I feel like this could be achieved by using a careful application of ap’s colored quickshades, but I would be willing to try something new.
Agreed. Also, better result would be prime in the brown color and use that sponge to stipple on the green.
Oh that’s a good idea!
Do the Newsh!
Gonna try this stuff, but not going to describe it out loud
I have a bottle of artist's Acrylic Mixing Medium, is that close enough?
This is so much extra work that could have been saved with alot less steps and look alot better other products. I think as a weathering tool it's prolly fine, but what you were using it for takes way more time and effort then needed when blending is prolly faster or if you have a airbrush..... even if you for some reason shun air brushes a wet blend would do what you just did here and prolly look better. And you wouldn't have to go through a million sponges to do a small army.
Newsh it. Hilarious. Made me LOL
A source close to another manufacturer informs me they’re working on a similar - but better, obvs - product provisionally called Noshit which apparently is short for Nooshtheshitoutofit.
I drove over to Monument HQ and got a bottle the day it was released, one of the perks of living in Phoenix. The idea was to take advantage of the slow dry time and use it like oil paints. It worked, kinda. Single layers were blotchy, but wet blending was easier than ever. I think its a product that will require some experimentation and will upset some because it isn't all things to all people right out of the bottle.
Wet blending is one of the things i'm currently testing! I'm hoping to do a video on it.
Thanks for this comment, I've been wondering every time I've seen a video about them how well they would work with wet blending.
How’d do you think it do on the joytoy space marine action figure?
have you tried for oil washes the ones that are water friendly winsor & newton brand sells them with that you don't need the mineral spirits its called water mixable oil paint
What is that red paint used around the 8:25 mark it is so bright and beautiful.
I would like to see the newsh working with an airbrush.
Would be really interested to see a comparison with doing the same technique of sponging off (and on) the paint but just without the newsh and maybe a bit more water/thinner. It kind of feels like the sponge was doing a lot of the work and kind of hard to tell what the newsh was bringing to the party
I will admit this was new for me, perhaps I need to add more water? I was just excited I got it to work after my repeated failures with oils!
I was about to post the same thing. Liquitex makes a slow dry medium that should allow the same thing with any glaze or wash.
I'd love to know what the goddess of color and application thinks! { PS you mentioned Q Tips so it's only a matter of time until we see someone rage against cotton fibers!)
Hey hey, a newsh video today!
Nice rhyme!
Might be interesting to try that sponge highlight method with just some paint. Or is the Newsh adding something there?
I thought it blended out nice with the newsh!
I love sponging vehicles like this.. it adds a tiny bit of texture that makes the big flat areas nicer to look at.
I use the same Mona Lisa odorless paint thinner when I use oils. They key (in my experience anyway) to not getting grainy separation is to gloss coat the mini first.
I'm 99% sure I glossed it, but maybe I didn't!
You mean gloss varnish the model before applying the oil paint ? Would it work with matte varnish too ?
To me, this looks like another good tool. Like all tools, your use may have different mileage. This does not look like you would get the same thinning level as with oils and spirit in comparison due to how thin an acrylic can get before breaking.
How is this different from acrylic pouring medium?
I’m not sure! I had not ever considered using that!
I'm very glad to see your review of this. I tried oil washes, which took forever to dry, and irritated my wife with the odors, so I'm very keen on having a viable alternative!
I tried (and failed) at oil washes so many times!
get oderless mineral spirits and there is no smell.
@@mekko1413 A good suggestion, but just the paint alone had enough smell to bother her.
@@krzysztofmathews738a warning, while odorless thinners are well odorless, they can still cause troubles with their fumes in a much more sneaky way if you don’t work in a well ventilated environment
What's the oil paints you've used? I wonder if you are getting really bad separation, if using a higher quality paint would help? I've been using master's touch with no issues for about a year now, and I have found it hard to use anything else.
Windsor Newton!
@@LylaMev Probably not a quality issue then 😅
I'm not the one to ask, but maybe try squeezing your oil paints into some scrap cardboard to let it soak up some of the oil before youix it with white spirit.
can somebody tell me what’s the interpret of the background music?
Yeah, much as I like to give an American company my money? I don't think this will be an essential part of my hobby table any time soon. I still prefer acrylic, oil, or even paint washes/glazes on this end. I've gotten good results with oil washes and in fact my current WIP has oil washes in its future. Good video as always, Miss Lyla!
Thank you!
It's NEWSHING TIME! Sorry >_> Thanks for the video, interesting process. I've been enjoying watching tons of videos as I'm trying to get back into the hobby after a few decades away. Appreciate your content :)
Did you try it through the airbrush?
The easier way to achieve this look is the same way armor modelers do for tanks. Base coat, clear gloss coat, then enamel weathering fluid of your choice. Enamels have a slower drying time so you can easily modify the look. Let dry then flat coat over it all.
This is an enamel replacement!
@@LylaMev if it is then it has failed at its purpose.
Watch the official video in which they use it for weathering on a dread, it removes the need for using varnish or enamals, all you need is water and any acrylic paint you want to use as a the colour. It's a good product in theory, but we will see just how good it is once it is out in the wild and more people get a shot to use it.
I'd love to see what other ideas they had for the name, other than "newsh"
If I order several bottles, and they come packaged inside a cellophane wrapper, is that a Newshbag?
Not watched this channel in a while and had forgotten, christ
Hello!
To describe the act would be a verb.
Newsh (v) to apply a modified paint as a wash. Often in miniature painting.
Slang: to-newsh. That model is well to-newsh'd.
Tried that gloopy sauce i am absolutely not convinced.
Newsh it !!! is Pro
"I got that Newsh." "Hit it with that Newsh." Newsh it Baby."
Newsh newsh baby
🎵🎶
What happens if you apply the mix to the makeup sponge and then stipple it onto the model?
I did that at the end!
I wasn’t patient enough. Looks cool. Thanks for the video!
So the consistency of this product appears to be like unthinned, but well mixed, oil paint. You can use oil paints in the almost the exact same way -- slop them on, let them set for 5-15 minutes, then wipe them off with a makeup sponge and cotton buds. Sure, oils don't dry in 15 minutes, but I can mix colors and blend them a lot easier than acrylics, even with mediums.
The point is that this is an oil replacement
Lyla you need to teach us how to non cat proof the room yet paint minis/comissions.... like how 😂
Very excited to see this review I've been curious about Newsh since I saw the company's videos.
Thank you!
To add a note, if you use oil colours, some are better than others some will give off a grainy texture due to the pigment, winsor&newton winton oil colour will cause grainy texture, winsor&newton artist' oil color professional is the best for pigment more pigments, fine grounded and does not leave a grainy texture
That’s what I have
@@LylaMev which one do you have the 'w&n winton oil colours' or w&n artists' oil colours? Oh aswel to add w&n sansodor is much better than mineral spirits
How is this fundamentally different from using a thinned down matte medium or airbrush medium? In terms of the properties you described, it doesn't sound so different.
I’m intrigued as to how you keep matte or airbrush medium wet on a model for 15 minutes.
Just Newsh it!
Is that your official vote?
@@LylaMev Indeed
Glazing and washing. Or gwashing if you like.
What's funny is that gouache seems to work in pretty much the same way
Hi Lyla, may I ask you a question? Did we (and you) really need the newsh(it)? I don't think so..
Since i have yet to get oils to work, it has been very fun for me!
Would be great if Monument Hobbies would restock Newsh. I guess demand was more than was expected.
More coming this week! Sold out faster than we ever expected!
Awesome! Looking forward to placing an order@@MonumentHobbies
Oil wash is seperating/becoming grainy is the result of over thinning with mineral spirits. The better your oil paint/mineral spirits, the thinner you can make an oil wash without issues.
I have high quality oil paints and have tried several ratios!
i don't think I will be using this over washes or thinned inks with FloAid and SloDri and maybe some matte medium... Your end result looked nice but I don't think it was the Newsh that did it. The contrast was way up in the final piece over the Newsh'd figure during application and doesn't feel like the same model...
I'm VERY excited by Newsh....I'm also VERY confused by the name
Hi Lyla youve used too much water in the mix and you need to leave it sit on the mini for a min or two.
I like "Newsh it".
Not sure if anyone else has commented, but I watched monument's twitch stream on Friday and they said the name is basically "new...wash" and it kinda just stuck once one of them brainstormed it.
I’m curious why you’re having problems with oil washes and what you’re doing to have them separate. I’ve never had an issue with that and I use cheap oil paints and regular smelly white spirit and generally get good results. Im glad you’ve found some newsh-it to use and your getting results you like. More testing with kimera though 😂
I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong! I’ve asked my friends and done tens of experiments. It goes on fine and then it dries gritty.
@@LylaMev are you using a hair dryer to dry it or just letting it dry naturally?
Naturally!
@@LylaMev the only thing I can suggest looking at it logically is the oils you are using are gritty…. Try some different oils, maybe spread some outwith a palette knife to see how smooth they are. All you are doing is adding solvent to your oils that then evaporates off, it’s got to be the oil paints that are the problem
I think based off what I saw the description of a more manageable oil like wash seems appropriate
"the algorithm" was hiding this from me - so this is different from the glaze & wash medium, not replacing it? Also, I absolutely love my ProAcryl paints, but I still use a lot of Vallejo paints for base layers; I tried paint cups for the PA but it dries so fast that way it feels like I need a "moist" pallet for the ProAcryl alongside my wet pallet for the Vallejo! Help!
Nothing beats oils
Newsh it.
Newsh dat.
Newshening.
Drop a newsh.
Newsh all over.
Smoosh to tha Newsh.
But what did the Kimera look like dry? I kinda like that red in the crevices look. Sort of like cracked skin showing bare muscle. I could see that working with some drybrushing and detailing.
Newsh definitely seems like an 'easy mode' option for novices, but it seems to leave a very soft grainy stippled look from all of the sponge dabbing. Useful if that's what you're going for.
Seems like a lot of work for something i can do with enamels or a drop of burnt umber and mineral spirits with much less effort.
Always happy to see innovation though.
Are you deliberately leaving steps out of oil washing to sell them over this?
@Doomsong83 no? You literally just mix them with mineral spirits slap them on then dab them off. You get a better effect with 2 steps. Enamels are even easier because they are premixed.
Fun fact, I don't use Drakenhoff nighthade anymore. Might be because I managed to hit the bottle and spill the entirety of it all over my pants.
