    I had crippling depression before I watched this video. I still do, but now I can paint swords.

    This was an awesome video helped me alot add more flair to my blood angel army now even on little combat blades I do this kinda power blade style. An on bigger power weapons I do a traditional grid or lightning effect ❤

    love it. i'm curious, as to if this could work, with a little glow powder, in a soft white mixed with a lot of the colors, for a powered on look.

    • @vanessaminiatures7023
      @vanessaminiatures7023  Před měsícem

      I would wonder about the powder giving texture to the sword. Depends on the medium i guess... I have glow paint that works well

    Sadly, ak acrylics isnt available where i live, what would you substitute the yellow for the green tutorial with?

      I’d say play it safe and just got with a Corax white or maybe even white scar if you want it that extra bright on the trim 👍

  • @theonerayman
    @theonerayman Před rokem +2

    For the green sword you said you put tesseract glow as the first layer. But TessGl is way green and your first layer was quite yellow. What paint is correct for layer one on that weapon?

      idk if this would be any help but Tglow requires A LOT of shaking every single time you use it. more than any other paint i own it settles quickly and very thick. you should be able to see all the green gunk at the bottom dissolve back into the paint, thats how you know its fully mixed@@Thatothertemplar

      contrast paints have different opacity, Doomfire Magenta is very thick, but if I had to use it with another, either Luxion Purple or Magmadroth flame depending on the effect i am looking for

      of course, if your intention is not to mix 2 contrasts like i did, Magenta is a good base color, I use a lot of contrast as basinc colors, then highlight with others
