How to: Drybrush a Great Looking Copper Metal - GFN Studio Workshop

Most paint lines don't carry a true copper color, so in this video we show you a quick and simple way to produce a great looking copper color for your miniatures.

Next video we're using pigments to add a layer of verdigris over this copper layer. Keep your eyes to your Subscribed feed!

Thanks for watching! If you liked this video, please subscribe and like our channel. If you found the video useful, please share it with your friends!

Until next time, get your game face on!

Very nice tut on copper surfaces. Looks pretty neat.

Not a bad tutorial. However, I think all top notch paint tutorials begin and end with still images taken with a good digital camera. I my opinion you can't determine the quality of the work, or the merit of the technique, any other way.

The quality of the work is inversely proportional to the curvature of the painter's fingers. No matter how good it looks in the video, your results may vary anyways.
What i'd prefer is when a 190 seconds video wouldn't be 30 seconds of intro-outro-credits-subscribe.

I love umber as a base for copper. I'll use a similar technique and then finish up with a thin layer of gloss varnish and a burnt umber oil (or watercolour) wash. I do see though that your next video is a verdigris pigment application, so then the wash wouldn't be appropriate.

I've been a subscriber for quite some time and I love the background music for your videos. I also agree that stills at the end are a great idea.

Balance in pick up games? Two people, each with their own goals for the game, design half a board game on their own without knowing the layout of the board and hope it all works out. Good luck with that. The faster you can find like minded individuals who want the same things from the game as you, the better.

Thank you all for your input, it's really appreciated. I'll see what I can do about adding stills at the beginning and end of the video. Would it be better to have a picture of the model pre-paint and then automatically switch to post-paint?

That would be cool, but even just stills of the final paint job would be what most people are looking for (without having to click a link to go to some gallery or something, just in the video).
