demonelf3 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Ok so I'm not sure how useful this will be but here goes. I've always thought it was sort of annoying to go searching around the internet, or even CMON for tutorials. About anything- from basing the feathering, blending the painting fleshtones. So here's what I have, and have organized into a hopefully useful resource. Feedback would really be appreciated! Basing: Raiding the spice rack Desert bases for dummies Lava Bases Basing 101 Urban Bases Industrial Bases Snow Bases Bridge Base Slate Bubbling Lava Basic Basing Large Bases Snow Bases 2 Snow bases 3 Water Bases Leaves/Vegetation Rock Base Normal Bases Basing with clay Magnetic Bases 9 tutorials Normal Bases 2 Lava 2 Great tutorial Now I by no means have put up all of the tutorials, but these are the ones I could find. Ple ase feel free to add. Of note, I find the leaves and vegetation tut to be a very good advanced article. So... more in my next post.

demonelf3 Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 I should have been more clear. This is mainly meant for beginners who don't really know what's what and where's where. I know when I started out I'd have loved a big, categorically organized, page of tuts. If I want to quickly scan through tutorials, I can just go to a page like this and without opening several tabs of different sites, just browse with ease. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yani Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 There's an excellent basing tutorial I had found and bookmarked, only to have windows re-installed on me. I believe it was on a Lord of the Rings forum, and he explained how to create basing items from ordinary household items, like foam and soap brushes.

tbrehaut Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I've enjoyed looking through the tutorials here: Necromancer Tales which has tutorials on basing, freehand, NMM, etc. Some good stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awong Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Here's a nice one on painting faces with Acrylics. He shows each step very clearly and probably harsher than normal, but that really helps illustrate his points. http://zyclyon-tutorials.blogspot.com/ -AW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gloryforixseal Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I would like to use some glow in the dark spray to accent some stencils, I have found a few different brands online, has any one here used glow in the dark before/ If so how did it work for you? What brands worked best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
