  • It's time to give the Grimdark treatment to by far the most requested chapter........ The Space Wolves!
    In this video I'll show you how I painted up this Space Wolf, using a variety of chipping and weathering techniques to get that Grimdark feel.

    Dude. Can I just say this is absolutely fantastic on all levels. Not just the amazing end result but the care you've taken into explaining the process, the logic behind making certain paint/material choices as well as well as some of the more experimental techniques. I have subscribed and look forward to more content. Thanks again.

    Absolutely love this paint scheme and Im using it to for my current Space wolves project. Quick question - did you seal the enamels in after reductive painting before doing metalics or just leave them to dry as is?

    • @SprayBlackStudios
      @SprayBlackStudios  Před 2 lety

      Thankyou!
      As this was done for a tutorial I didn't seal the enamels in and rather just allowed them a few hours to dry. This is only because I am on quite a time crunch to get it ready in time to edit and release!
      You can apply the metallics straight on top of the enamels without issue but if I was doing it away from the channel I'd likely do a thin coat of Matte varnish over the top just to add a little more protection.
