Fantastic work my friend! It’s like I was watching myself. Undercutting, ca glue in the tea candle… 😂 Did you use primer before the acrylic top coats? Love the display base it really adds a lot of character to the piece. Looking forward to the next instalment. All the best!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you my friend🙏 I told you I fear it would look like a Small Soldier copy😅 but happy to hear you like the result. I used MrSurfacer with Leveling thinner as a primer, and acrylic paints diluted with leveling thinner on top. I guess somewhat in this combination wasn't working well. For the next projects I got me some Tamiya paints for the preshading, hope this will work better with the leveling thinner🤞 The base is supposed to look like a armour textured piece in a way like a winter tank, hope that will match the scene🤞
@@biberhunter_scale_models Ahhh, there's your problem. Never use acrylic paints over resin for a primer coat... it'll never stick. The only acrylic primer that works is Stynelrez or Mig One shot (which is SR rebranded). I always start with either Tamiya spray primer or Mr. Surfacer 1000-1200 either of which is thinned with MLT... this will stick perfectly. I'm very flattered that you'd want to emulate my style of video content and wholeheartedly give you a thumbs up. Oh and btw thanks you for mentioning me in your video... much appreciated. Onward my friend.
miniature but that's exactly what I did. Mr surfacer and MLT as a primer. And when it was dry the preshading and precolouring with acrylics and MLT. When I am not wrong that's how you did it too🤔 It's not that it was my intention to copy you too hard, but as you are my idol in bust painting and I know your guides by heart, I can't avoid it to make it look like one of your videos.😅 So I am even more happy that it's approved and you like the result, the mention is the least I could do.
@@biberhunter_scale_models Oh yeah, sorry you did use Mr. surface. I wonder if there was something wrong with the resin? I've had that happen before. I really like Tamiya spray primer as well straight out of the can... if levels real nicely.
@@SmallSoldier I am really not sure how to say if the resin is okay, maybe I did something wrong without knowing it. I am a bit unsure using can spray primer for such small pieces as I am afraid of flooding details. Although I had good results with Vallejos spray can primer. Maybe I should give it a try in the future.
In this genuinely inspiring series you combined real artistry with such careful attention to detail, all of your layers of refinement of the skin were absolutely worthwhile to produce such a beautiful rendering and such realism to the eye. In the process you really demonstrated the value and possibilities of oil paints. The finished work is remarkable to enjoy looking at, but watching how you painted it was an absolute inspiring joy and I thank you for that friend. (In addition to your painting talent the videos were very well made too, and that's a quality work all of it's own)
Well, well, well... 😀 Great job. The problems always come out after priming. I didnt know that you can airbrush VMC with Mr. Levelling thinner. I will try... Fantastic preshading and airbrushing.
Thanks al lot, happy you like it, much appreciated. Yes I learned that you can combine them from small soldier. Don't know if this combination is part of the problem, but the use with airbrush was very smooth and well.
Sehr gerne, freut mich zu lesen das mein Video gefällt. Warhammer ist nicht wirklich meins, ich mache wirklich lieber Militärmodellbau und Büsten🙈 danke fürs schauen🙏
Nice to see you have a new video up. Regarding the toxicity of resin shavings, I recommend wet sanding to control the spread of the resin dust. Inhaling that stuff is a serious problem. Cheers.
Congrats, great work in that bust! As for the peeling of the primer I think that it happened because you used leveling thinner for diluting your acrylic paints. It reacts with mr surfacer!
Thank you🙏 hm, interesting thought. I used the leveling thinner for the mr surfacer too, so I didn't expect that to be the problem🤔 or you say the acrylic paints reacted with the mr surfacer?
@@biberhunter_scale_models Actually the thinner reacted with the mr surfacer. Mr leveling thinner is recommended by GUNZE for lacquer based paints and for mr surfacer series which are also lacquer based primers. So when you used mr leveling thinner ( which was in quite big ratio, if I’m not mistaken) for thinning the acrylic paints, it reacted with the coat of primer. I think that’s the explanation in your problem.
@@modellers5340 okay that's interesting. I thought when every layer is completely dry it should be no problem, no matter what you apply on what. And as I used the leveling thinner with every paint I would never guessed that this could be a problem. But thank you, I will try out different combinations in the future, as I in general like the mr surfacer.
You seem very fascinated by the paratroopers? Were you in the paratroopers yourself? At that time I had to do the jumper course so that I could go to the infantry school to become a sergeant!! Damn tiring but great experience. Greetings from Germany an very good Paint job!!!!!!
Na dann können wir ja deutsch reden😅 ich war nicht bei den Fallschirmjägern, ich hab es im Wehrdienst nur bis an die Tornado Jets geschafft 😉 aber ja, die faszinieren mich. Die 101ste spätestens seit Band of Brothers, aber auch generell. Das Kreta Diorama habe ich für einen bekannten gemacht der Fallschirmjäger bei der BW war, die beiden von der Vignette hatte ich schon länger fertig und brauchte eine Base, die Büste hier hatte ich Lust drauf und passt zum Thema. Also teils Zufall, teils durchaus Leidenschaft für das Thema das es grade hier etwas von Fallis wimmelt😉😅 Grüße zurück.
He He, dann auf Deutsch 😄😄😄 die Tornado hab ich bis heute nicht von Nähe gesehen 😩als Kind habe sie öfter erlebt wenn die im Tiefflug über unser Haus geflogen sind!! Ich war immer so begeistert davon und hab mich immer darüber gefreut 😃😃😃
@@bravo3leader722 ja Luftwaffe fand ich auch immer faszinierend, wollte dann da auch hin und war sehr happy das ich so nah an die Tornados kam und auch viel mehr dran machen durfte als ich dachte. War eine super Zeit an die ich gerne zurückdenke, war sogar zwei Wochen auf Kommando auf Sardinien in Deci🙌😬
@@biberhunter_scale_modelsEigentlich wollte ich zur Panzer Truppe aber kam dann zu den Grenadieren nach Mellrichstadt war 12 jahre dabei, ich durfte 2x Afghanistan, 1x Kosovo sehen und wegen guter Führung durfte ich 1 1/2Jahre nach Würzburg. 6 Monate als Wachhabender und dann 1 Jahr Austausch. Ich denke jeden Tag daran. Wie schön es war. Es war die Schönste aber auch Schrecklichste Zeit meines Lebens
@@bravo3leader722 oh wow da hast du ja einiges gesehen und erlebt, grade Afghanistan beneide ich dich nicht drum. Bin generell froh das ich im Wehrdienst keinen Auslandseinsatz machen musste, verglichen mit deiner Laufbahn war es dann bei dann doch eher Pfadfinder 😅
@@biberhunter_scale_models maybe they do different colours for different countries I decided to start building the waffen SS machine gunner in the Ardennes the one sculpted by ebroin it has some fit issues again on both arms and the gun it's a bit like the figures I did back in the 90s where you have to use putty to re design it a bit you can't tell once it's painted
@@IanPotts-lv6os oh that's a bit disappointing to hear they have fitting issues, especially considering they aren't cheap busts. So long I was always happy with their pieces, maybe I was lucky🤞
@@biberhunter_scale_models yeah most of the ones I have done before fit together with no problems maybe this ones more complex I have a nuts planet bust with the same prob just have to work with it
Thank you for watching, happy to hear you like it in general. Yes that's right, the bust will be painted in oils, so the overall title for this project is painting in oils. And the banner says too that this is episode one, the preparations with assembly, pre shading, pre colouring and detail painting. All this are a important parts to lay the base for the oil painting. Sorry if this was a bit confusing, the next episode will be the face painting in oils.
@@cutley2b all good, please don't apologise. Maybe I should have made it clearer in the thumbnail. Happy to hear you are looking forward to the next episode.
How are you able to thin Vallejo Model color with leveling thinner? I just tried this and it caused the pigments to separate from the binder. Witchcraft! Nice work btw.
😅 I had this with acrylics from AK and Ammomig. Did you try more than one colour? Maybe the one you tried had some issues or the specific colour didn't work🤔 something seems to affect this as I heard from other guys that they mix the Ammo acrylics with MTL what never worked for me, only Vallejo works. Don't know what's the factor🤷♂️

Yes, wet sanding is a good way to avoid dust, in this case I had to use the dremel so it was messy anyway and I wore a mask👌
