30 Sec Tutorial - Recycle your old brushes to make stippling brushes

This is truly a 30 sec tutorial and is another tip that was passed on by David Zabrocki. When the tip of your brush has waved goodbye and you've moved on to a new one you can easily create a stippling brush by cutting off the tip.

Stippling creates a lovely textured effect - I used it to create the tweed cloth on Tesla's trousers and the rust effect on this orc blade (painted within months of me starting this hobby). 

Badger Pt1

Hi,

I've been working late into the night painting this fantastic little guy - Badger from Infamy Miniatures sculpted by the amazing Patrick Masson - and loving it! 

Tesla - Finished

Hey friends, 

I've finished Tesla, handed him over to James at Infamy Towers and I can now bask in the glory of knowing another project is finished. Oh, and start planning the next one :)

Tesla Pt5

Jumping many steps between Pt 4 and 5 we see Tesla nearing completion. As you can see I've gone down a true metallic route for the metals, steel and brass. Once again when I get some time (I guess as of next week) I'll add a couple more 30sec tutorials on how i achieve these effects quickly). 

On another note if any of you play Destiny on PS4 and fancy a game add me, my psn is son_of_megazord. 

Tesla Pt 4

It's tubular man! 

 

Tesla Pt 3

Hopefully you'll see now I'm trying to bring all the colours (especially that purple) back together!

Tesla Pt 2

This evening I've been painting Teslas trousers. I've gone for a tweed look, which is rather stippled as opposed to completely smooth. I can see another 30sec tutorial on this coming online in the coming few days :)
