I got the shock of my life when I looked back through my old 5e D&D players handbook and saw your name in the credits! How do you do it Vince? full time job, married, dogs, warhammer weekly, intricate painting tutorials and now with this fancy editing? You're a machine. I love this exploring colours series, turquoise is one of my favourite colours to paint with, but I always feel I have to use it sparingly as otherwise it can look garish.
I want to add to the part of why the orange teal combination is so popular in movies . skin tones often lay in the orange to brown spectrum so color grading the movie to orange and teal automatically makes faces pop more and put more emphasis on the actor without losing the vibrancy of the movie.
Teal/ turquoise and magenta have long been a favourite combination of mine, but I'm fairly certain you have influenced that with many of your works. It's just such a pleasing combination of colors.
Looking forward to the composition video. Making the best use of saturated and desaturated colours together on a miniature is something I find challenging, although very rewarding when I get it right. Still pretty new to the hobby so I think I, like a lot of newer painters, probably lean too much into saturated colours and don't quite know how to use desaturation effectively.
My goodness Vince, I would in no way be a competent painter without your instruction. There needs to be an international award for services to art and miniature painting, and it needs your name on it.
Perfect timing as this was a colour I’m considering for my next army! Also the production quality of your videos seems much higher than the last I checked (which was admittedly far too long ago, but what can I say… RL gets in the way…) Found this very informative - thanks as always!
@@VinceVenturella I was wondering if you were planning to do more videos on painting with oils, particularly on the differences between using transparent and opaque oil paints and when you might want to use one over the other?
Thanks very much for an excellent survey and explanation of this color range, along with the practical demonstration of how the shadow and highlight colors can be utilized. You’re are an excellent teacher and I really appreciate the time you spend and the knowledge you share in each of your videos!
Hey Vince! Just wanted to let you know I’m really into the color composition thing now like combining saturated with desaturated and contrasting colors. Really cool video about the color turquoise and teal. I feel like you’re literally pouring out wisdom out of every pore in your body. Cheers and have a wonderful week beautiful people!🌞🙏🏼
Hey Vince, I am making a Warhammer army and my color palette is VMC Dark Sea Green, Turquoise and Blue-Green and even using Glacier Blue to brighten my Blue-Green as needed. So this video made me feel so confident in my choices! I'd love to show it to you as a fellow man of culture who enjoys the turquoise/teal. I'll be using some of these tips for more impact (such as the purple for some variation on shadows) and Ice yellow! Lov your videos
I’ve noticed, particularly in some TV shows this year, a shift to the use of a red-brown-green palette be it set decor, costuming or more generally within the spectrum chosen to ‘correct’ the moving image itself. Delightful and insightful, liked and subscribed.
This is wonderful! First, well done on the sound, it was a pleasant surprise. Secondly, I am glad to see that my instinct of matching my deep red, gold and cream with teal on my Sacrosanct is the right call. But it makes it very clear to me how much more I need to actively think about complementary colours and how to use them to create fantastic shadows. Thank you so much!
The teal orange color treatment in films is also due to skin tones having an orange base, and teal allowing for the faces to “pop” with contrast, if you want that character to pop out of the scene, make them in a teal shifted environment, want them to feel a part of the environment? Make it shifted orange.
Probably my favorite color! The naming conventions with it are definitely confusing though. And I don't even think you mentioned Cyan lol great vid though! Can't wait to put this new knowledge into action when I start doing some rust and verdigris on these plague marines I just started assembling! 😁
So glad to see another Color series video! One of my favourite HC series, I personally keep coming back to these to remind myself of ways that I can make more interesting my colours. Thanks for this Vince!
I love these color exploration videos. You do such a great job going into color theory and making it simple enough that I can understand it. I'm very excited for the color composition video! Thank You for making these.
Vince, I would like to see close-in stills at the ends of your videos so I can pause and take a good look of what the final effect is. With you still holding the mini cocked to paint, it is harder to visualize what the final product looks like, IMO. I also really enjoy teal. It may not be as interesting, but I really like color schemes with teal on black. As a matter of fact, my CSM are painted with black power armor with teal trim and red/orange cloth. I think it looks good together!
You will often see those in upcoming videos, in this case, I didn't really finish this miniature, it was more just for explanation, but you will see that in future videos. :)
This is great. I really like this style of video. Watching this while im halfway through my AOS Tzeentch army thats using this exact colour combo. I wondered why i liked it so much!
I've loved the exploring colours videos so I'm very excited to see it continue. I find the explanation about how people interpret colours in different areas fascinating and also how colours are used in popular culture as well as historically. Absolutely fantastic videos, keep it up Vincey V 😁
Awesome video! And pretty fitting, given that i just started to paint my new year's new army tyranid project exactly in this combination: Rusty skin, teal carapace. Love this combination.
Excelent video! My favourite turquoise is Adriatic blue (Scale 75). Please keep doing exploring colors videos, they are fantastic! I suggest you to do a cyan video, talking about the primary color of the CMYK system, and also a magenta video would be nice too!
Looking forward to the composition video you talked about. This was great btw! I am definately going to try out highlighting turquise with sunny skintone 👍
The most highly valued turquoise mineral color is "robin's egg blue" - so actually much more on the blue side. It is rarely like this however (darn impurities), and usually ends up paler, and more green. So even comparing "turquoise" to the namesake is a bit of a mixed bag!
Very helpful, thanks. I recently painted a mini from GW Deepkin range and the end result felt a bit too cold and blue while I wanted a more "tropical" tone. I see now that I could have been bolder with my choices for shadows and highlights :-)
I have a suggestion for a video. Earthy/muted colour pallette. I've found I tend to paint in muted colours, even up to highlighting and want to know how I can make it work more with how I see colour.
Another great video! This is making me want to paint a miniature with that turquoise/orange color scheme. Can't wait for the video on color compositions, I really struggle with that. I usually go for a realistic look based on the box art (zombicide), but very often my miniatures end up looking pretty dull and dark
Nice video! :) On the topic of colors. Have you done any video about Color wheel? It could be cool if you made a video about the scientific Color wheel, (not the 1800's faulty one that primery schools keep teaching) and how you can use that? Where you have Cyan, Yellow And Magenta as your 3 Subtractive primery colors, and red green blue as your primery addative colors. ____________________________ Subtractive focused color wheel is of more importance when painting :) Addative meaning casting light on something, like a TV works with RBG, Subtractive is reflected light, like from paints, or with a printer CMY-K (K is the black) Anyway have a great day!
Yes! These series on the colors are the absolute best. Thanks again vince, turqoise really is a favorite. In the previous episodes of exploring colors you always mentioned the undercoat (skin color for yellow was an eye-opener for me), but you didn't here. Is the coverage over black always this good? Is it preferred over white or gray undercoats? Also, I would've loved to see the orange-red on the mini you are painting to really get a feel for how far you can drag this out before it not longer looks right.
Turquoise is one of my favorite colors too, and I even ordered several Warcolours based around their Turquoise set to paint Eowyn. (which I still need to paint...). As much as I love this color, I honestly do not know what else to use them on beside a single mini, but been thinking about ideas...maybe as part of my necrons?
Huh, I was fussing a lot about what exact colour of teal/turquoise I should be using for my verdigris effects. Turns out I was worrying a lot over nothing! Thanks! :D
So is the process of desaturating your primary colour with it's complimentary one (for natural shadows) applicable with most colours, only some, or just this combo?
Great timing! I've just started work on a custom marine chapter that uses a dark purple base and want to use something in this family as my pop color and for plasma (because to me, the straight blue version just doesn't hit me quite right). I thought it was interesting you separate Cyan from teal and turquoise but i'm sure you'll get around to a video highlighting what that's about. I do wish that your color videos maybe spent a little bit of time at the beginning talking about how these colors can best be mixed for those of us who don't have ooodles of bottles to choose from. Also, i notice you didn't really talk pigment in this one and only barely skimmed the fact that it seems most of those are tinted with white- i'd expect that also makes it more challenging to blend and can result in some very stark contrast if not well blended? Or because the colors are already bright is this less of an issue? Love the content and the new format w/ intro is looking great!
No you're exactly correct, I should have mentioned the white content, as it does make for a challenge, the bright side is, these do actuall glaze well, especially the ones with less white, so it's easier to smooth.
The complimentary colors to make things pop idea has been what I have been working on lately. Really good tutorial. Do you ever use effects like gloss, satin or others to enhance these complimentary colors based on the material, like gems or glass?
Both teal and turquoise colors tend to mixed by using white which makes them opaque, so not great for glazing. Deep versions of turquoise artist paints usually don't have white in them though (like the Liquitex ink (PB15+PG7) for example. The new Cobalt Green (PB36) from Kimera Kolors is a single pigment paint that also doesn't have any white in it, but is a lighter color than the before mentioned Turquoise Deep from Liquitex (which should be named teal, but yeah...). Will give glazing Cobalt Green a go in my current project. Also a 50/50 mix of Vallejo blue and green ink makes a beautiful teal; its a little lighter than the premixed Liquitex ink.
Thanks so much as always for sharing this content, Vince. Idea for future exploring colors/hobby cheating: why not show how to choose an effective prime color for a model / unit? While it may seem like a subjective choice, a veteran's point of view could be very interesting.
Another awesome video. I've been wanting to experiment a bit with these colours for awhile as I've seen so many beautiful models using it. I always seem to shy away from though currently for more conservative colours, which I'm not sure is due mostly to the subject of my current projects (typically Cursed City etc) or me simply not being bold enough 😅
Another superb and informative video, thank you, Vince. Could you possibly make a video focussing on drying retarder? I know you've covered it along with other additives in the past, but I'm struggling with my Vallejo bottle, as it makes the paint too thick and streaky. Many thanks!
Yeah, the vallejo one is basically useless, the Warcolours or Liquitex is really better, it's a simple liquid you mix. That being said, I will add it to the list.
Great video as always I have been wanting to play with some of my favorite colors (this being one of them) but I need to figure out what to put it on lol
For a non-artist newbie, the general idea of shading with the complimentary color was a “wow” moment. I can see in retrospect how it works on the color wheel, but I feel like I’m freed from darker to lighter shades of the same color.
Liked it a lot ! would have loved a little more into special stuff like turquoise OSL (greenish cyan ?). Btw teal blue is my favourite color and i understand better why now ^^
This video is amazing. Turquoise is my favorite color and I want to use it a lot for my color schemes! I didn't realize orange was the complementary color and was shocked. Do you have any tips on how to pair it with silver/grey? That's my second favorite color and I'm trying to land on how to work them together better for team colors, as well as balancing the two with shading/highlighting.

I really love these dives into colors, history, effect on human eye, complimentary colors, how much saturation should be put on. Well done sir.
Thank you! Cheers!
This was probably the best "exploring colors". Love that you showed all those ways of using the color.
Thank you, glad it was helpful. :)
Just coming across this, such a challenging colour to work with and this was exactly what I needed to progress. Thanks!
Also one of my fav colors. Love a diluted Akhelian Green (very slightly greenish) contrast blue over warm white as well!
Absolutely. :)

Great tip about mixing orange red for shadows. Production quality seems improved already dude.
Great to hear, the journey of improvement continues. :)
very much looking forward to the video about working with de/saturation.
It should be a fun video for sure. :)
Can't believe it took you that long to get to teal..... As usual, great serie!
No one is more surprised than me.
Very helpful, thanks. I recently painted a mini from GW Deepkin range and the end result felt a bit too cold and blue while I wanted a more "tropical" tone. I see now that I could have been bolder with my choices for shadows and highlights :-)

I did an old one, but it's likely worth a revist soon.
Great stuff friend 👏 👍

In the previous episodes of exploring colors you always mentioned the undercoat (skin color for yellow was an eye-opener for me), but you didn't here. Is the coverage over black always this good?

Also, I would've loved to see the orange-red on the mini you are painting to really get a feel for how far you can drag this out before it not longer looks right.
Anything white.grey is basically fine, they don't cover super great, so anything that isn't pure black is good.
Turquoise is one of my favorite colors too, and I even ordered several Warcolours based around their Turquoise set to paint Eowyn. (which I still need to paint...). As much as I love this color, I honestly do not know what else to use them on beside a single mini, but been thinking about ideas...maybe as part of my necrons?
I have seen some awesome turquoise necrons.
Love this series!
Thanks!
Huh, I was fussing a lot about what exact colour of teal/turquoise I should be using for my verdigris effects. Turns out I was worrying a lot over nothing! Thanks! :D
You got it - they all work!
Been pairing Teal with Magenta a lot lately. Really like the color combo on tentacles.
It's a great combo.
The new 40k Drukhari codex cover is a good example of the religious use - hehe ;)
Yep
So is the process of desaturating your primary colour with it's complimentary one (for natural shadows) applicable with most colours, only some, or just this combo?
For most colors, yellow and purple pose challenge, but these are especially good.
Great timing! I've just started work on a custom marine chapter that uses a dark purple base and want to use something in this family as my pop color and for plasma (because to me, the straight blue version just doesn't hit me quite right). I thought it was interesting you separate Cyan from teal and turquoise but i'm sure you'll get around to a video highlighting what that's about.

Both teal and turquoise colors tend to mixed by using white which makes them opaque, so not great for glazing. Deep versions of turquoise artist paints usually don't have white in them though (like the Liquitex ink (PB15+PG7) for example.

This video is amazing. Turquoise is my favorite color and I want to use it a lot for my color schemes! I didn't realize orange was the complementary color and was shocked.
Do you have any tips on how to pair it with silver/grey? That's my second favorite color and I'm trying to land on how to work them together better for team colors, as well as balancing the two with shading/highlighting.
Glad it was helpful!
Fascinating
Great vídeo, I'm also a fan of turquoise and teal. Could you recommend some orange red from vallejo to complement blue green and turquoise?
Anything from the warmer red or Orange/REd area will work, but something like 70.851, 70.805, 70.956
Love this series! It's crazy that you reply to every comment. What will you do when you go viral?
Not an issue i've run up against in 330 episodes - I think TH-cam has decided that isn't for me. ;)
