Me too been working on battle tech minis lately as a break from my space wolves; just to break up the monotony of batch painting. Just did a smoke plume almost exactly like this a week ago, wish I had seen this first though. But have been doing a lot of molten and hot metal on the mechs exhausts and what not.
Thank you again. Always an inspiration. All your work is such a stunning high level, would you ever consider doing a video on practice exercises or more beginner-intermediate techniques or skill building?
So first off that looks awesome and is better than anything I can paint. I wonder how well it would have worked for that last grey highlight to be done with bad dry brushing techniques (no dampening wiping off excess paint on paper towel), I think that could work really well for the literal ash you were depicting, also maybe bring some of the blacks and greys up higher into the yellow flame for even more contrast. Maybe do some recess washes with white oils then go over those(once dry) with florescent acrylic paints/inks, maybe bring in some reds to the higher points of the orange area and the recesses of the just smoke area.
Awesome! This is a great method and I’m excited to try it out. Do you think using some blues instead of yellows/oranges would work similarly as fusion exhaust?
The man that inspired me to start painting and the reason I am not painting anymore. Hahaha. Keep it up man
Haha, full circle! Thanks, man!
Great painting 👏👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Always getting us to up our game. Doing these plums for other battlemechs now as well... fingers crossed as I follow along and try to mimic the steps!
lol with your brush sword in hand you too can slay the grey! Very cool looking jet effect, thank you Sam!
Eyo! I was watching Ninjon's new video yesterday! Thanks man, glad you enjoyed it :)
Flame has become one of my favorite things to paint lately, that and bone - strange as that sounds.
Heck yeah, very wykked 😎

Beautiful work, thoughts on drybrushing those final lower highlights?
