Are YOU new here, lol?
Duncan Rhodes feels a disturbance in the painting force
*Duncan looking for paints to thin out of precaution*
Ahh a man of knowledge 😂
TWO THIN COATS!!!!
I got two completely different things from this. 1. thin your paints to make it faster and easier and 2. Thin your paints to greatly reduce wasted paint (I'm stingy!).
Next video : You don´t need light to paint miniatures! *clips down NVG and still achieves better results than I do *
Video after that: you don't need a miniature to paint a miniature! *Some how gets the paint to stick to air and manifests a space marine*
Do you need a miniature to paint miniatures?
Paints one on the desk
You don't need brushes nor light (get a clean glass jar, drop paint and a mini in there, shake, done)
If I'm looking for a silver lining in this video, I think it's the reminder that we have/use tools for a reason, and you're not "cheating" if a tool (in this case water) gives you a better result in a shorter amount of time. And the corolary being that it's not a flex to make thing unnecessarily harder for yourself just to end up with a worse result.
Wow you think we shouldn't be painting in the dark with sticks like cavemen did back when people did REAL art? THINK AGAIN
Painters in the Sahara Desert be like:
No thinner used, yet you still manage to paint a model 1M times better than I can 😂
Smooth miniature painted thick
Adds a blindfold, ties one hand behind back and still paints better than I can! 🤣
The absolute mad man.
Marvelous video my dude! Interesting concept!
Great video mate, loving the set upgrades too 👌
Amazing how he painted it with just one hand.
Amazing as always 🙌
oh la la, new studio! its beautiful!
I dont know how you did it. You managed to completely out do me without even thinning your paints. Good job. I cant imagine why you would ever want to lick your brush though. That seems hazardous.
you know what the funny thing about this video is? it has proven to me that painting with paints straight from the pot is not the worst idea (I don’t think my paints with water at all, nor do I rarely ever spray base)
Nice exercice et great result.
It's still vastly better than I can achieve with water. Bravo on the fine paint job good sir
I love that little nurlgette in the background, great video btw
Reaper paints are very diluted when you buy them, and the ONLY ones I would ever touch a model with straight out of the bottle.
I mean... What about contrast paints, or shades, or Vallejo xpress series? Sure you can thin them out with medium, but that doesn't make a whole lot of sense for most of them.
@@MrPuzzles I should've been more clear, I was meaning regular paints, not any of the technical paints. You are correct about that.
Great model and great paintwork!
Wonder what the model is called?
Zumikito where have you been you have helped me so much with painting and im genuinely sad to see your not uploading i love your content and I want to see more videos you lowkey saved my hobby painting with your videos. Thank you
No worries, I will be back to uploading soon
I use gsw acrylic thinner instead of water for actually thinning the paints and I use my wet palette pretty seldom, but I can't imagine having a proper painting session without a water pot.
The sanding block scares me, I'd be too afraid of ruining the mini
Cool tutorial.
Thicc paints for a thicc mini
You were so preoccupied with whether or not you could that you didn't stop to think if you should! 😃
Skvělý. Jako vždycky.
Airbrush paints: "Yeah we are the best." Like Vallejo AIR steel which is 1 to 1 leadbelcher is perfect to such a degree you have to wait 2 mins for it to be like a regular paint and it flows so great. Also, Zumikito is a cultured person for painting Kingdom Death!
great channel
Interesting experiment, I do think thinning paint is an important part of the learning process since it gives us an understanding of how the paint behaves at different consistencies, and I'm way more comfortable creating an opaque layer through several thin coats than I am with thick coats, but it just goes to show that if you understand your paints and how to use them, you can get good results even when restricting your process, if you put in enough effort.
Absolute madman - well done! How though did you rinse your brush as you went? I'm constantly rinsing as I'm over paranoid if paint drying in the brush - so may be doing it too iften
I mean, it makes sense to use thicc paint for a model like this.
Loving this mini, KDM always has that very fine level of detail that makes it stand out. Also thighs. And hair too.
Now to paint a mini using finger paints. ^_^
I was gonna make that same joke
Know what the mini is called?
zumi just stumbled upon your channel, im not learning to paint, may never, but just keep talking and painting please
Try coating the mini with pigment binder & muxing your paint with pigment binder in your pallets. I recommend the Vallejo one. As for paints try the scale 75 Artist line.
"I think its pretty ok" as he paints better than anything I've ever done lol
God I love finding new painters to follow!! Subscribed bro
1:38 nice even ~as...~ layer
What grit of sand paper is good to sand accidental texture back? I have this issue even with well thinned paint
I'll try on next one 😁
No way!😊❤
Yes! With glaze medium… got me before you started painting 😂
What's the best brand of brushes? I am not getting lucky with them and they fray at the edges quickly even when I'm being gentle during painting. What am I doing wrong?😅
"I am not very excited about it because its not very smooth".... Meanwhile it looks like something I won't be able to achieve for the next 10 years xD
did I only just find your channel and now I have a little crush? maybe
Kind of off topic but...Any suggestions for someone who is getting back into the painting hobby after a long break and has developed a minor tremor in their dominate hand? Also so you know what I'll be painting, if it helps I will be attempting to paint Frostgrave cultist as my first foray back into the hobby.
Time is always the key resource. The more time and practice you put in the better (and quicker) you will get at anything. Buying more paints and brushes will not make someone a better a better painter - only time spent actually using them will! This is true for any skill.
As someone who has painted with unthined paint (oil and acrylic), I highly suggest using a flat brush or filtbit. It will give a lot better results than a detail brush.
And of course, Licking your brush adds…..moisture 😅
Paint still looks good
- Zumikito, which are your favorite paints?
- A pint of AK orange red
Compliments on the choice of miniature for a thick paint tutorial
whats the model
Smoothikito without water painting smoother than me with all the water I want
Where is the minature from?
Where is that mini from?
Looks gorgeuos want to paint all my kingdom death miniature after I add magnets to all the joints
I'd be happy with a mini looking like that at the end I'd say its higher quality than table top but then again I'm no where near as good as you
Zumikito be like :
T H I G H T !
Think again 😠 !
T H I C C T H I G H T !
OK Zumikito, you've got my attention, even the "clickbait" title isnt this strong in comparison.
Jokes aside, with every video, what a leap in the editing departement👏.
But... For what?
For the Emperor
For Johnny, man.
😭😭
@@Zumikito nailed it
For frodo
Next video paint blindfolded using only your fingers. Wins golden demon!
I feel like licking the brush just defeated the whole purpose.
Quick answer, Yes it's called dry brushing and it's great for painting lots and lots of space marines and necrons in a short period of time.
Well, you're applying thick paint to a thicc model. I see no problem here.
I think the way the skin was painted without water would be good for painting textured skin
Over a painting session, without cleaning the brush, how did you stop it just drying paint in the bristles and ruining it? Did you just eat the paint constantly?
Yes and I also wiped it into my glove after licking.
@@Zumikitolicking is still using water though
Oil paints would like to have a word with you.
That miniature got me acting up
Which miniature from Kingdom Death is your favorite?
So many good ones - Pinup Visionary, Pinup Nighmare Ram armor, Sci-fi savior, Dedheim Erza...it's a long list!
@@Zumikito cool.
are you on new tech sites as well like Odysee?
Thinning your paints is easy mode and very helpful to beginners. When you get more experience you can mix it up. Great experiment and very useful to see the recovery from mistakes.
🎉
I'm assuming you gave up on the idea of not cleaning your brush. That brush looks way too clean, wouldn't it get all rubbery and make it extremely difficult to change colours without mixing them on the brush?
What did I learn from this? That licking your brushes will make your miniatures 5x smoother.
I suspect Sam Lenz would be great at this challenge.
This is how I paint, I feel attacked 😂
This basicly how i paint acept i clean my brushes My pallet is aliminium so its good for spreading paint before use it
In the next video, you don't need a brush to paint a miniature. Then proceeds to finger paint and use a toothpick and paint to a better standard than I can paint normally. 😂
I think Ninjon may have done a finger painted mini video already so perhaps the next one could be painting a mini without the mini, just build up paint layer upon layer until a mini appears.
i like the idea and the message but doesn't licking your brush kinda defeat the whole purpose xD? ( i do also sometimes barely use water for some parts of my miniatures :p )
I mentioned in the note of one scene that I made sure to just lick off the paint without diluting it. Sometimes i barely use glass with water as well BUT that's only when I use a wet palette
Man, I wish I could justify getting some KD:M minis but I have so many to paint from the Darkest Dungeon game.
Just leave the paint lightly textured on the thighs and bum and claim you've invented a super realistic cellulite effect.
Just use tears as a substitute for water.
Next time you want to skip water, just go full oil painting.
But don't lick the brush 😋🖌️
if the models that thick thick paints are fine
Came in expecting something along the lines of "I'm using oil paints and alcohol, of course there's no water!" 😅
Thicc
He'll yea
why didn't you work wet-in-wet on the mini?
No thinning whatsoever? You can just picture the twitching eye on Duncan Rhodes after he saw this.
I will not use anything to dilute the paint... except for my own spit!
However, my simple question is why would anyone paint without some kind of thinning solution and some kind of cleaning solution for their brushes? This is like saying that you want to fight someone with both of your arms tied behind your back along with one of your legs. Yes, it can be done, however this is setting the difficulty of the task to the hardest level possible for no reason at all!
Next next video: Can you paint miniatures without a brush?
Any chance someone could get that mini you painted? Just asking for a friend…
It's called Sunlion Erza from Kingdom Death
sooo no dilution......but spit is fine xD
i hope after all that brush licking you basically had THE best Beverage You could think of For how It Was not a very good feeling after finishing the mini
Like a Beer or something hahahahahaha
the 'no drybrushing' bit seems wrong to me. you can absolutely drybrush for display pieces, you just have to use a small brush to drybrush with.
Not very smooth. That's better than 90% of painters doing their very best work haha.
Amazing job and a brilliant video, pointless but so much fun to watch. I guess it proves you can paint even in a drought?!
The point is to spread your paint rather than overthinning it!
Your suppost to use water😮
I use vinegar because I'm bitter 😅
Licking is a dilatant
If you’re licking then just use water already 😂😅
This video is pointless but I’m still enjoying it 👌
That is an oxymoron, but sure
@@Zumikito you entertained but it seemed like a pointless exercise
the point of the video is this: It matters much more that you spread the paint rather than thin it :)
@@Zumikito yeah I couldn’t get my head around it, I will need to do the same experiment to understand because when I paint I find dilution is one of the most important things for me and the only way I learn is by trying things out myself so I will give it a go 😎
