WWII Japanese in 28mm; miniatures from @brigadegam WWII Japanese in 28mm; miniatures from @brigadegames; painted with the new painting set by @ionicsmarthobbies .

I tried to introduce some variation in the uniforms to better reflect both the range of equipment and the wear and tear of war.

With the release of the new painting set for Japan With the release of the new painting set for Japanese soldiers by @ionicsmarthobbies  I have prepared this reel showing how I approach painting historical helmets.

First, we build volume by applying successive highlights on the top and lower edges, using irregular brushstrokes to introduce texture and soften transitions.

Then, we reinforce the mid-tone shadows with thin glazes of a dark red-brown.

They have adopted a clever and simple system: base + metallic wash + highlight. Straightforward, efficient, and perfect for achieving quick yet striking metallic results!

Mudness!!! It is always so refreshing (especially Mudness!!! It is always so refreshing (especially here) to go back and paint some 15 mm tanks for Flames of War.

Painting the classic winter whitewash camouflage with a washable white paint makes the process incredibly easy and fun. Then just add an enamel brown pin-wash and some enamel mud effects, and suddenly you have a proper winter beast ready for the battlefield!

How to do chipping effects on 15 mm @battlefront v How to do chipping effects on 15 mm @battlefront vehicles for #flamesofwar 

(Technically, it is the same regardless of scale)

	1.	We use a light colour to create superficial scratches and chipping. We apply the brush irregularly, mainly on the edges. We can use the body of the brush rather than the tip. We can also add horizontal scratches here and there.

	2.	We use a dark brown colour to create deeper effects. We place this colour inside the previous one. We only paint a few chips like this, keeping variation between superficial and deep impacts.

The most common issues when doing chipping are:
	•	too many chips
	•	chips that are too big

I tried a “quick” approach to painting the new I tried a “quick” approach to painting the new plastic Prussian lieutenant from @trench_crusade.

By quick, I mean sticking to the classic base + wash + highlights method, instead of building volume layer by layer. For me, this is the sweet spot between time invested and final quality.

That said, I have to be honest: I spent a bit more time on this miniature, adding extra highlight layers (after all, she is the officer!) I also enriched the shadow areas, especially on the metals, using subtle filters to add more depth. And then, the rust / patina effects on metals are the cherry on top of the cake: easy to apply and very effective!

I really like this approach: you can start with a quick painting method and then, if needed, add extra layers later to level up the quality. More about this in the upcoming volume of the IONIC encyclopedia!
