gettin troops on the table fast by dipping 2 of 2

[anonymoose84]

Impressive results from just a dip, but I'm trying to understand if there's any difference between this and just "washing" a mini?

[hooeyist]

Wtf

[TheFewzz]

So its like a wash then?

[Jeffs40K]

Army painter says the light is for Lighter colored models and the Strong for darker painted models.. even says to use strong on Orcs

[Kamikuru77]

LOL chika rocks

[squidgybidge]

Hey Dale. Thank you for the demo. I've been toying with buying some army painter dips. More likely to give them a whirl now.

[deathknight51]

I have mostly black models like (90%) with red trim. do you think a white shade might pop or something?

[BootlegPainting]

@deathknight51 I dont know if they make a white shade to be honest..... If not try a very light drybrush of a gray on the black areas.... that will make it pop.... or maybe some light wet blending on the raised parts (just the very top parts dont go hog wild less is more)

[bombkangaroo]

@deathknight51

Depends on the miniature. If you havea red trim and some other bright/warm colours, then it might be an idea to higlight the black areas with a subtle blue-grey to create contrast between the light and dark areas, and to keep the balance between warm and cold colours on the model.

If you have other details that already have cold colours on them it might be an idea to do a more neutral grey highlight, maybe a hint of brown mixed in to keep the highlight from being too stark.

[socialimpetus]

if you were to quick shade white like white scars what color of quick shade do you prefer and how much are these.. im not located in the states.. so that i have an idea if ever I ask a friend to buy for me..:) thanks a lot..:)

[BootlegPainting]

@socialimpetus they have 3 diff shades from soft to heavy... I would start off with soft and work your way up... you can also brush it on and not dip it for better control.. not sure how much it costs but the warstore dot com has it... it is by army painter you could prob google it and find a store locator that would have it close to you... if you need more help just let me know

[GunBeryl]

Not bad indeed. They turned out really good in my opinion. Have you ever tried this with Flames of War models. Great Videos. Thank you for sharing.

[stevearmon]

hey bootleg, did you use the citadel satin purity seal to get rid of the shine?

[XXXJ666]

Thanks for making these videos... I am new to painting minis and was not happy with what I have done so far trying to rush them for the table a bit. I am hoping this technique will help save that a bit ;)

[cheech381]

Really Cool Booteg... I think I'll get some now! I Agree it does need the Mat Varnish... plus adds protection. I will get teh Dark Tone. But what have U found the other 2 shades useful for? The Strong to and light Tone I think they are...??

[BootlegPainting]

@cheech381 the light all I can think of would be doing faces maybe or multi coats and building up the shade maybe. the other you have to be careful that it isnt too dark for ur colors....but all in all it is good stuff

[memakattak]

hey that was some siickkk stuff. What is that stuff in the cans and where can i get my hands on some? thx, great vid.

[SIoppyful]

your a virgin and i hope you die.

[BootlegPainting]

@SIoppyful boy thats so insightful and a witty comment.....you win the smart guy award

[westboarder]

@SIoppyful go fuck yourself

[garythegit]

i think your vids just convinced me to get some of this quick shade stuff. thanks mate! keep up the good work :)

[BootlegPainting]

@garythegit well i hope it works out for ya... it's not real hard to do and looks killer.... u can also brush it on it get better control just remember to buy sm dull coat cause it does make em shinny as glass but it'll look great after the dull coat

[garythegit]

just ordered my tin along with some new paints. going to be using it on 28mm perry miniatures. can't wait :) thanks again!

[BootlegPainting]

@garythegit not a prob if there is anything i can do to help just say te word

[BootlegPainting]

@garythegit #

[MerColaPucko]

do you think a orc stompa fitt in that can :D

[BootlegPainting]

lol thank you..... i mean it i was in a touchy mood and needed a chuckle and u provided me with one so thanks again......... now dont we wish that it'd work....cause i have a stompa still in the box and it would make it a ton faster :) hehehehe thanks again bro i needed that

[MerColaPucko]

im off buying one of those cans, still got a Assult on black reach-box from last christmas, and a stompa and battlewagon from this christmas that needs to be painted xD

[MrRasnarok]

I don't think I'd buy a stompa just to go and dip it, haha

[BootlegPainting]

well that would be an expensive dip project to say the least hehehehehe but it could be done.... big ol bucket and a ton of cans of dip..... but u can also brush it on as well so it could be done but i do get the joke :) thanks for watchin

[Balladblack]

They turned out awesome for just base coating and using the dip, ever tried using minwax polyshade? The wood stain.

I know its not too pricey but you need to do a matt coat on the minis cause they are really shiny

[malacau1]

Hehe sad behaviour with your dog but lovely dog.

So I wouldn' have any problems highlighting over the top off these shades?

Sorry just had to coment on the dog, good to see another animal lover , plays wargames.

[BootlegPainting]

i dont think there would be a prob doing high lights over the dip.... u might have to do a flat coat after the dip is dry but that wld be worst case......

[omiguelion]

Nice videos. I´ve got 1300+ unpainted minis I´ve collected over the years and am now getting around to paint them. I´m definitely going to use this technique. Thank you for the tutorial.

[BootlegPainting]

not a prob if u run into a roadblock hit me up in a pm

[madmono1994]

i hope thats in points lool :0

[BootlegPainting]

it could be either way.... either a 1300 point army or 1300 minis..... the first one would be faster to get done..... but if i counted ALL of mine i would prob have that many....if not close to it

[madmono1994]

haha awsome

[13RAAM]

this is going to make my life so much eraser

thxs

[BootlegPainting]

ur more than welcome and if u ever need any info on stuff hit me up,,,,, thats why i'm on here to help out

[g0dzl00t]

go to army painter wepside

[Kronos777999]

Can u tell me where to find a Dark Tone

Quickshade...i cant find any on Ebay?I live in Canada.

[charlieofgondor]

Hey man, did you use dark tone, or strong tone on these guys?

[BootlegPainting]

i have light and dark and i think it was dark

[lucasmagalhaes]

"you are so ferocious" lmao ^^

[MrNickRowe]

what effect does dipping have on highlighted and detailed painting?

[frozenflame33]

Awesome! can you message me the link or reply with where to find it

[Har13quinn]

im like an epic noob at the whole painting thing but is all you did just put a basic coat of colour (no black undercoat) on and then dip it in some kind of wash which gave it all the shadows and stuff?

your videos are great :)

[BootlegPainting]

well they do have a black under coat but other than that..... yep thats all u have to do this way. they are not the best BUT for the lil work ur doing they'll look great

[Har13quinn]

sweet thanks :)

[Virukpl]

Looking really good, but I think that it would be a good idea to use slightly darker background (maybe blue?) as it's hard to see the details when the light hits the minis.

[LazerLuger]

That Ork came out absolutely beautiful.

[fiveheadlol]

Man those look great. Could pump out the core units of an army out in a weekend.

[anton13rowe]

That does it! I 'm buying some Quickshade this instant :p How do you sugest gripping the plastic models tho? (non slotta)

[BootlegPainting]

u can or u can paint it on and not dip it it is another way of doing it

[rossco14hi]

the ork is the best

[darthd95]

and don't forget . metal 4 ever !!!!

[darthd95]

not bad at all

[8888Duke8888]

huh, i wouldn't have expected those to come out that well.

[BootlegPainting]

well i guess i can try to make em look real bad if u want me too.......... hehehehehe just kiddin but ya they look good for the amount of work actually done on em

[40kchaoslord]

DAMN! i think thats pretty high quality for dipping, i might give that a try some time

[BootlegPainting]

ya if u have a ton of numbers to do and want to do em quick..... well this is ur answer alright

[terrainaholic]

DoYou think dipping in the light and the dark gave the colors more of a natural gradiant? Because maybe both would produce even better painting results!!!!! Dale You are THE MAN!!!!! way to go!!!!!

[BootlegPainting]

i'm not sure..... but since i did dark second i kinda doubt it, its actually their med shade they make a darker one i just got the lighter two, but i think it is about right (the middle one that is)

[sirrickles]

Looks pretty damn good.  Now if there was only a way to paint eyes fast.

[Ghaz3k]

looked like you mashed the base on the Ork just a little bit

[BootlegPainting]

ya i did hehehehehe u caught me.... i gripped too hard with the pliers and messed it up.... i have a ton of extra bases just too lazy to fix it hehehehehe shhhhhhh dont tell anyone

[jeremiahdrigg]

Great thanks for showing me how they come out. I always wanted to try this stuff.

[gazeebo88]

How many models can you dip using 1 can of army painter?

Greenskin player here so need alot of models to be painted =P

[jeremiahdrigg]

more than enough for your army.

[BootlegPainting]

two to three whole armies so it is cost effective

[drakkonis418]

Question #57692=After you dip the model and it dries, can you go back and do some highlights or does the dip juice act like a sort of sealer?

[BootlegPainting]

yes i didnt do anything to them after dipping but if i did ....well they would look bad asz if i did.

[1RedCorsair]

bluetablepaintings way of doing it tho they add extra motor oil =)

[IRONBLOODxMECHANIQUE]

that stuf is a LOT beter than the old furniture stain method. I may have to pick up a can of that army painter stuff.

that HAS to be what blue table uses on 80% of the minis they crank out. it looks VERY similar.

[BootlegPainting]

ya they do a wash method which is close but takes a lot longer to produce than this will

[eveplayer12]

not bad at all

[SwimmingInMtDew]

you double dipping it LOL ok that was bad awesome man

[BootlegPainting]

ya and i didnt even wash up inbetween.....ok now that was bad

[solidsmurf]

The question is, is it worth the $30?

[BootlegPainting]

30 bucks will do 2 to 3 whole armies........so 10 bucks per army to cut ur painting time in half....... i think it is worth it

[Natakue]

Looks good to me...How much does that stuff cost? and will it work with all colors?

[jeremiahdrigg]

The primer and the shade will cost you about 36.00 US. And yes it works with ALL colors. They have some pictures of drednaughts painted with the system on there store page and it looks really good too.

[BootlegPainting]

ya one can will cost about 30 bucks and u can use it with any colors or paints (well i havnt found any u cant yet) now they are not perfect golden deamons BUT...... if u want to put mass troops down on the board FAST this might be for u

[stumpythumper]

I hate to admit it...:)

But the Skaven look pretty dang good!

I was wondering did you just basecoat...

or did you pre-highlite?

[BootlegPainting]

just base coat nothing else .... one color per section or part then dip does the rest

[mt51784]

me likes!!!

[doremicom]

Dude that's an awesome way to get those horde type armies out on that table!!!! Thanks!!!

[lorddraconum]

Just wondering is dipping and washing similiar?

[KingCanute1016]

yea i was thinking the same thing, dipping might take less time? but if you use the 'army painter' with a paintbrush, then you might as well use a wash for cheaper.

[BootlegPainting]

ya but man the ones i saw that was done with a paint brush and wow is all i can say..... now the newer washes u have to do coat after coat to get it looking like one pass of this.

[KingCanute1016]

ahhhh, i see, so its still got a faster and easier result with a paintbrush. and they look amazing? well, this stuff seems like it might be worth the cash. thanks for the demonstration of the stuff dale. =]

[lorddraconum]

Oh that makes sense. Might have to try and find some of this. Will help me get my armies on the field faster.
