  • Editor's Note: 5:23 when Marcus is showing the spare model: This is actually an example for a too thick paint layer. Just ask, if there are any other confusions. thanks, and stay tuned for the next video! ☺

    Finished, not perfect is the best advice you gave. Finished lets you learn more than agonizing over perfect.

    Thanks confirming my painting choices ! Do the boring important stuff first and do the fancy stuff later if it doesn't look good yet 😂 Thinning is a skill 😅 Many coats is ok !

    As someone who works 13-hour shifts (that’s not a typo) at a coal mine that switch from days-to-nights, and nights-to-days 4 or 5 times a month, AND have a family—I find that I always tend to take those shortcuts. 😅 I basically use speed/contrast paints, maybe do a drybrush, and I always forget to varnish the model in the end. Time is a very valuable luxury I just don’t have… I’ll maybe get one or two models done in a month. 😿

    Good tips but what you rly have to show to the noobs is stuff like 'if you overpaint with acryl you can wipe it away with a wet brush real quick

    Wieder sehr interessant und informativ, vielen Dank dafür. Besonders die Konsistenz der Farben und dein Test dazu fand ich interressant. Ein Frage, wie wascht du die Farbe von deinen Händen?
  • Finished, Not perfect. Ist super. Sage auch immer für Leute die anfangen, bemalt ist immer besser.
