    Lovely tutorial I personally use terradon turquoise, but this looks as good.
    Then again that's half the fun, two guys can do a similar scheme slightly different for way different results.

    Incredible video. I think this is a very satisfying paint job, especially because how chill it is, nothing too complicated. You set up the metallic and then coat it with paint.

    Best on CZcams. Question: how would you touch up the blue contrast if you make a mistake? Thanks again for all your content

    • @ThePaintingCoach
      @ThePaintingCoach  Před 2 lety +2

      Thanks Barry - depends on the mistake and if you can hide it with another cost of contrast (e.g. a shaddow area)
      Failing that I'd probably paint it leadbelcher, highlight with chrome and re apply the contrast

    • @ThePaintingCoach
      @ThePaintingCoach  Před 3 lety

      Keep it moving so it doesn't pool and use two coats if you need - you may also need to thin it with contrast medium a little - will depend on the pot/colour - greens are notoriously bad covering paints - contrast or other haha - might I recommend my Dark Angels Tutorial? 🤣

      That would be a challenge - my first instinct would be airbrush
      If that's a no go then you could use lots of really thinned down layers with a very big brush, or do them something like black or silver, leaving only the inserts or doors the blue colour
