My Supporter Duke’s Paint Art is supported by

Who am I? a short introduction Hello, I am Sascha aka Duke and founder of Duke’s Paint Art. I started painting a long time ago learning from Games Workshop. After a 7 year break, I came back to miniature painting realizing that there was much more to learn and improve. So I started again calling this point zero. Connecting with many other awesome painters I was able to learn from the best and develop my style and technique. 2019 become a very important year with several events: · Collaboration with Vallejo and Redgrassgames · Founding of Duke’s Paint Art Team · Birth of a beautiful daughter!

Important information I'm doing this all for free. Of course, my time is limited and such tutorials keep me from my work. It also cost me money. Please support me with a small donation so that I can create such PDF’s and Youtube videos in the future. Besides, it comes my Website to good around raffles and cool things to offer. I have thought of something great. If you send me a donation of 45€ plus postage, you will receive a 30 mm miniature painted by me from my universes.

Prime zenithal priming This part absolutely up to you. I choose to prime the miniature with an airbrush. But it is fine to use any undercoat primer of your choice. As always, take your time, don’t rush and just prime outside of your house. Don’t forget to check your miniature for any mold lines and get carefully rid of it! It is always a good practice afterward to wash your miniature before priming and clean it up with a toothbrush.

Prime „There is only grey in my world“ I started to spray Vallejos Surface Primer Dark Grey all over the miniature. Afterward, I sprayed with Vallejo Surface Primer Grey from another angle all over the miniature again too, for a such called, zenithal priming effect. ▪Spray angle: 45 degrees Colors

Base Color Cape „A long road begin“ This color scheme is very important.It will be used for the cape, boot’s, mask, Pants, and gloves. Make sure you have enough on your palette. You will need it!

Basecoat of Batman „I can feel the change in the wind“ I create a mix of Dark Prussian Blue,Pancer Aces Periscopes and Black in a 50:40:10 ratio. Paint it smoothly in thin coats over the cap, boots, helmet and gloves. ▪ Count your drops from the bottles. It helps you to keep the correct ratio. As example: five drops of blue, one drop black, four drops of periscopes.

„Getting from there to here“

This color scheme started from the darkest point to the brightest. Use for the cape, the boots, the mask, pants , and the gloves. Make sure your palette is wet enough. You will need it!

In my mix of the base colors, i create a street on my wet palette, by RedGrassGames, from the darkest point to the brightest part. For the light, I take 71089 Light Sea Blue and 1 drop of 72001 Dead White to improve the light. I go over all the high parts of the cape and mask with my mix with several layers. It is important not to destroy the deepest part because they are the shadows. Just paint the highest parts.

Skin

„Batman begins“ It ain't much but at the end, behind the symbol and mask is humanity. I go ahead and give Batman some flesh tones. I started painting the mouth and cheeks with Vallejos Tan 72.066.

Flesh I made a mixture of 80% Tan 20% Dead White and gently paint the face parts and give him fine highlights to the face. To provide more expression and dramatic I made a self mix of Red Wash and a Blue Wash to get a Purple Wash Ratio 70% Red 20% Blue and 10% of a thinner. By adding this wash make the face more expressive. I paint the Bat sign black. Optional: paint the lips with a little bit pink in your mix diluted with one drop of distilled water.

Second Light „The Dark Knight Rises“ That cape is not done yet. After some drying time it is time to go back to our wet palette and add some more color to our hero.

Second Light On The Cape „Shadows only exist with Light“ So now is the part where we go back to our street from the darkest to the brightest point. And now we use my WBS technique. WBS. Wet-Blend-Stippling technique! Add more white in your mix. Some drops of water or Thinner Medium 70.524 will make it easier. And you don’t ruin your brush, unlike the normal stippling technique. Stipple with the brush every highpart slowly brighter. Be gently and practice a little bit.Here is an example. I used the WBS for the Body. https://youtu.be/mzRepjn6Nx8

If you don’t understand this technique check the link of the video right below.

WBS Technique

Edge Highlighting „Love your curves and all your edges“ For the edges I use a mix of Light Sea Blue and 1 drop white 1 drop Persiscopes. Hold the brush crooked and just stroke over the edges. The paint can be slightly thinned with water or a medium. It is helpful to keep the miniature correctly and sometimes it requires strange positions.

Don’t be a sidekick check the video link right here:

Edge Highlight

Highlight all the blue parts and base the Body! „Can you see me?“ Now we must highlight the Details on the Mask, Cape, Hands and some other small things like nose and fists. Use the same color from edge highlight mix from page 11 and paint gently with a detail brush be careful the parts of the mask and the rest. For the base of the Body, I use Vallejos French Mirage Blue 70.900 and bring it very clean on his body.

Shade and Glaze! „The Night is my ally“ Time for shade and glaze our Hero. First, we deepen the shadows with a self-mixed shade of our base colors but add more black and dilute it very strongly. my suggestion for the mixture is 1 drop of Prussian blue 1 drop of periscope and 4 drops of water. Alternatively, you can use Citadels Drakenhof Nightshade. We carefully apply our shade to each well. t's up to you where you want the shadows to be stronger, just experiment.

Dont understand deep shade no prob just see the video:) https://youtu.be/XfJo36PO3oU

Glaze! „A little fight in you. I like that.“ „Then you're gonna love me.“ A glaze causes the opposite of shading. If applied correctly, it only remains on the raised areas and changes or reinforces the color pigments. You can make a glaze out of any color - it must be diluted very strongly with water until the colors become transparent. A simpler possibility is to use a transparent one from Vallejo. Before applying it you should wipe off the filled brush on a tissue so that the excess water is drained off. My mixture for the glaze: 2 drops Vallejo 71.089 Light Sea Blue 6 drops of distilled water.

Hint of the day A glaze makes wonderful transitions between 2 colors. If you want to see what you can do with glazes check my video on my youtube channel^^ https://youtu.be/AQSdEo7Pe-I

The tissue thing!

Apply your glaze „only“ on the highlight parts of the miniature. Try to experiment with this technique.

God bless we are at this point now! Shading the body. „Speaking of which, do you know how I got these scars?“ Now comes the easy part. I shade the body with a mix of Armypainters Dark Tone and Quickshade Medium. Ratio: 4:2 Take a Size 2 brush and go over the complete body. Remove all excess places. I call them Quickshade Puddles. Let it dry and watch how well this work is done from a dark tone. Now all muscles, scars, and deepenings come beautifully well. You can repeat this step but be careful otherwise it gets too dark.

Belt „Everybodys knows his belt“ I have some color suggestions so that you can decide which you like best. Important is it starts dark and ends brightI have some color suggestions so that you can decide which you like best. Important is it starts dark and ends bright. I always use the thinner of Vallejo for my mixes it keeps the color moist longer but also weakens it a little bit. My mixture for the base: AV Model Color 70.921 English Uniform For first highlight: AV Game Extra Opaque 72.151 Heavy Goldbrown Last Highlight: AV Model Color 70.847 Dark Sand and go further with AV Model Color 70.858 Ice Yellow For the Shadows between the belt parts I use AV 72.091 Sepia Game Ink Also I highlight the Bat sign with edge highlight and a mix of AV Black and Light Sea Blue up to white on the rare part of the edges..

Last light for body and paint the eyes and draw some fine black lines between the body parts and the cape! „Arise“ I take a detail brush for the fine black lines and paint the body parts between cape and body and belt. You can do this with a black wash or a good diluted black. Body highlight with my WBS technique. Take 1 or 2 drops of white in your first light color. To weaken the white I use one or two drops of ivory in my mixture. To intensify the light effect of the figure I use a fine detail brush and paint the light at some places on the body. Always in the same direction.

Optional body shading „Feel my muscles“ To increase the shadows of the muscles and so on I mix black and 2 drops of water and paint/support with a detail brush all shadows between the muscle areas.

For more intense I pant some fine spots light on his body. I mix a little bit ivory in my light mixture to get a smooth brighter color.
