Just stumbled into the site and saw the tutorial. Great job! The salt technique was an eye-opener.
One question, however. The narrator speaks about a "pin wash" technique. I'm not familiar with the term. Could you explain it, or point me to somewhere where it is explained?
A pin wash is, simply put, washing only the details instead of washing the entire subject. So instead of slathering a wash over the entire base, I only washed the cracks, saving me from going back over the gray. Very simple, very effective.
Videos are taken with a cheapy Flip HD camrea in basic lighting. Photos are taken with a professional Nikon D90 setup with tripod and macro lens which has anti vibration... in a lightbooth. Ceratinly the pictures you see at the end are of higher quality and look identical to the real thing. I apologize if the video quality is poor, I am woking on my video rig currently.

Thank you very much.

ReplyDeleteMmm .. how's that what you're painting at the video and what you show as the ended base are soooo different?
