    For those who are completely new to the world of oils, could you do a video covering the "logistics" of it? How do you clean your brushes? What types of containers do you use to hold the mineral washes? Can we see a photo or video of your setup before you start to work?

    Hello from France, just ordered a set of your enamel washes and am currently binging your videos to make the most out of it.
    24 Oz bottles are no joke this set will last a long time, just came back to the hobby after a long pause, dusted off the half a dozen SoB boxes i bought at their new release a few years back and had to immedialty put away because life and stuff?
    Time to start building and converting the grimdark sisters army i've wanted for almost 20 years, gonna use the old metal models i bought back then to try out color schemes.

If you can build up a selection of basic recipe style videos like these showing the products in use to make simple paint schemes you could definitely get more people on board!

    I received my Villainy Ink collection (in the UK) a couple of weeks ago, and they absolutely didn't disappoint. I've already painted a few minis from Bloodborne with just the washes, and Ichor of the Damned is now my new go-to for adding shading very quickly.

    • @GrimdarkCompendium
      @GrimdarkCompendium  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We'll see when Skaventide launches for that. About filtering: yes of course. Dilute the washes with 3 parts water and a little bit of glaze medium. Go with multiple light passes and slowly build up the hue. Of course needs some extra brushwork to make sure the filter integrates nicely with no staining.

    Thanks a lot for the video. The first example is exactly what i will do to my new sisters. exactly the tone i was looking for. you chose a greenish paint for the eyes, but i guess the crimson wash with the purple touch will also do the trick and suits sisters, right?

    • @GrimdarkCompendium
      @GrimdarkCompendium  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We have a course on the GDC for Sisters of Battle with a more nuanced recipe/process for armor, the one showed in this video is a simplified and faster version of that. So yeah that's perfect for Sisters.
      Yeah you can make it work easy. Just keep in mind that Carrion Crimson wash is designed for flesh effects as you see in recipe 2 of this video. Wouldn't recommend for armor or clothes as it dries satin to gloss with granules for mottling. Thanks for your comment!

    So how much does the overall look change if you prime grey, spay the whole thing with the green-shade, and then zenithal with the titanium white? I'm also curious how much the color/finish changes if in your first enamel step if you skip the drying and just move directly to wiping off your highlights with a dry cotton bud or sponge. Also what about dot filtering the metal with the smoke before adding the rust enamel and then scumbling with a brush that is just damp with the rust?

    How long of a working time do you have from the application to the removal process? If i let it dry overnight is it pretty much set or can i still reactivate and remove it with mineral spirits?

    • @GrimdarkCompendium
      @GrimdarkCompendium  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You've got lots of working time. Also depends on the individual paint.
      For Enamel Washes like Goon's Grime and Sector Rust fifteen to twenty minutes will do, or even better, about 10 seconds of blow dryer at low heat.
      For Enamel Effects such as Ichor of the Damned, Carrion Crimson & Coelia Green, unmixed with mineral spirits, you'll want them to sit overnight depending on quantity and ways of application.
      Take a look at our Villainy Ink Resource Page, it will explain everything in detail and you'll see even more demo videos.

As someone who fields a full Catachan army for 40k painted in the style of the cover of the 3rd edition codex, I'd like to try these methods to replicate a similar tone that art poster that came with the Cadia Stands box set for the Astra Militarum, but I feel it won't have the right effect or be too indistinct.

      Enamel washes are highly incompatible with water so they don't mix properly.
