Welcome to another Game Face Nation Studio Workshop tutorial!

In this video we demonstrate how to use glazes to add very smooth highlights to your models. This technique takes a good amount of practice to get right, but keep at it and you'll love the results once you get the hang of it. The whole idea behind this technique is to use your brush to push and pull the pigment in the paint to create a gradient of color by drawing the majority of pigment towards the end of your brush stroke rather than leaving it spread evenly across the brush stroke. This requires the paint to be very, very thin in order to work.

Keep an eye out for our next video on March 24th. This will be both a written article on out website and a set of videos detailing several methods of highlighting the color black! So hit Subscribe and Bookmark www.gamefacenation.com to be the first!

Thats good to know. I always like to buy as many non-citadel paints as possible, I'm glad Vallejo looks so good.

Glad the video was useful. I've been painting with several brands over the years and have found that none are really hands above the others. I've even done this technique with Apple Barrel craft paints and it works out just fine. You just have to work with the paint enough to know how it's going to act.
