    Heyy, a fellow Night Lords appreciator.
    I'm about to get started on making a Night Lords legionary KT which may end up having some amount of bare heads, so it's nice to find a tutorial that gives a simple rundown on how to get the right sort of colour.

    This is the best flesh painting I've seen and it is really very achievable for most painting. When you put the head on the body it makes it pop even more. Do you have a paint tutorial for that body? I'm looking at doing Ulthwe and I reckon that would go absolutely sweet with them.

  • @cripplelord6383
    @cripplelord6383 Před 2 lety +1

    I have to say, this is the best look for pale skin I have ever seen, I really want to emulate it for an alpha Legion Army, but it's impossible for me to get Citadel paints where I live.
    What would you recommend as an alternative to rackarth flesh? From all of my searching the past few hours it seems like it's just one of those magic colors that doesn't exist in any other paint ranges.

    • @D1gital-ZER0
      @D1gital-ZER0 Před rokem

      Based on swatches, I think The Army Painter's "Mummy Robes" is fairly close to Rackarth Flesh. Maybe "Banshee Brown"?

    I’d like to see you tackle an Asian skin tone, please. I’m struggling to expand beyond the basic Caucasian.

    • @e.mailissimo2146
      @e.mailissimo2146 Před 3 lety

      In my oppinion: mix a bit of olive (like GW Castellan Green) into the darker color and something like GW Ungor Flesh or GW Kislev Flesh (or Vallejo Carne Oscura Dark Flesh Model Color) to be the lightest color (except some lighter top highlights color).
      I stumbled across that by accident when i painted an arrow-wife for my viking warband... all of the sudden she looked asian, so i gave her black hair and it looked really convincing.

    @metheiam5714 Před 2 lety

    Has anyone foun a GW paint similar to the african shadow? I was thinking Gal Vorbak red or Barak Nar burgundy based how they seem on the website, but GWs color depictions can sometimes be a bit off imo.
    And i guess Pallid Wych Flesh could be used in stead of the Basic skintone paint?

  • @pieter-janvangucht2152

    Curious to see how this technique translates to larger models with more flesh exposed (the GW monster sized crypt ghouls for example)!

    • @cultofpaint
      @cultofpaint  Před 3 lety

      Same colours, just easier to apply with an airbrush! But perhaps I'll use one of those crypt horrors as the demo mini

    What colors would you go use if you had to paint a more Vampiric or Idoneth skin tone where the skin is almost chalk white? I've personally been struggling with that, and I was wondering if I you have ever done something like it before, or had any idea for a newer painter what to do.

    When I use a small brush and thin my paints, it’s not long before I get a little dry nub on the tip of my brush. Yours didn’t seem to do this, and held paint for aaaaaaaaaages. How did you manage this? Thanks.

    • @cultofpaint
      @cultofpaint  Před 3 lety

      Hmm, i guess maybe i'm refreshing the paint on the brush more often? Also climate makes a big difference. Generally there's not enough paint on the brush for a dry tip to form.

    Hey Henry. How important would you say it is to mix a slightly different skin tone for each model? I suppose that faces are the one place where you'd want to be inconsistent!
    EDIT: provided their faces matched hands and any bare arms, of course.

    • @cultofpaint
      @cultofpaint  Před 3 lety +1

      I think you have a lot of wiggle room with skin. Variation is cool, but also you aren’t gonna notice subtle differences on a bunch of 28mm minis.

    As always brillant artpaint,i think pale skin stone reflects thin skin and on the opposite dark skin stone much thick skin..so always add some tiny,tiny blood veins on the upper skull and close to the eyes with a pale blue,it's add some transparency/transluscent to the skin and a realistic effect too..
