It's time for Romain to gather his brushes and work on the Wild West Exodus Outlaw Underboss Frank James!
In this second part he's going to be adding more shading, highlighting and then super detailing the steampunk details of this awesome miniature.
What do you think folks?

Really good instructional video. Romain does a great job narrating what he is doing.
Another great job romain!
Always enjoy the tips.
A wonderfully subtle and natural colour scheme Romain and as always you guide us through the painting process expertly. Merci.
Great stuff. Can’t wait to try some of these techniques.
thanx romain
Thanks, Romain, for another very informative series. Could you possibly do one on how to production-line paint a group of figures, say, the Deadzone Enforcers? Nobody that I’ve found seems to have a good, reliable method to reproduce the white and black paint scheme used in the game literature. I know there’s nothing in the game that requires those colors, but I like the look, sort of Stormtrooper style. I know painting white cleanly is a pain, but I’m looking for a way that doesn’t require days on each figure layering multiple coats of thinned white paint on each armor… Read more »
Chain painting is really not my thing… I’ll probably paint the enforcer chief at some point, even though it’s not in the cards soon.
I could elaborate on something black and white but it sounds a bit boring to me. I believe the fact no one has done a real painting guide for the enforcers yet is that the miniatures have casting issues that demand a lot of work, especially the rank and file, and that really digs into the initial motivation to paint them properly !
Everyone would rather have crispier minis.
Very fine painting tutorial of a very fine miniature on a very fine portal
Very nice
Well painted romain!
Love these videos!
its Mr Bean if you know what I mean..
Can we just see the painting and not have quite so many disparaging statements on what he does not like about the figure?
I loved that figure !
On the other hand, you could watch another video. And talking about disparaging statements… well… I won’t say there are that many here. It’s just you apparently.
Cool stuff.
good stuff
Another cracking guide. Very nice!
What is the cloth made off that you have underneath the paints? I tried it with wet kitchenpaper, but the paints were slowly being drawn into the paper. Not certain if that’s supposed to happen.
I like how Romain slowly builds up the colors. I tend to come in with dark colors and than move back to lighter colors. Usually trying to get 1 layer coverage.
1 layer coverage usually leads to mistakes and caking up details, even though it can happen with SOME types of paints and with a lot of care… I urge you to reconsider technique ! DOn’t hesitate to go back to my series “technique Toolbox” ! 🙂
As for the “cloth” for the wet palette, it’s not cloth, nor kitchen paper. It’s baking paper, porous, not grease-proof. Here’s the link to the tutorial everyone keeps asking me for : the wet palette tutorial !
http://www.beastsofwar.com/backstage/wet-pallett/#sthash.EvyEjpuX.dpuf
I stand corrected on the baking parchment/greaseproof paper issue, obviously we were typing at the same time.
Some types of Grease-proof papers are fine… It just needs to be porous on both sides for the capillary action to take place. Often time, baking paper has a “waxed” or “glazed” waterproof side, and we don’t want that.
I suspect that it is a cloth sponge with greaseproof paper on top. That is certainly what most people use for a wet pallette. I haven’t had time yet to wacth the video but I’m pretty sure that is what Romain usually uses.
Nice stuff, looking forward to painting some of my own soon!
nice, as always
Superb work supported by excelent comment. Thank you for that tutorial!
Thanks everyone ! I’m touched ! 🙂
Want more painting tutorials coming!
A very fine video from a nice guy. I do love the comments when it comes to why to use a given colour and on the miniature. If @elromanozo does not like something he say it and I value that in a man.
Great tutorial again. I would like to see some close up stills of key stages/finished product linked as well as the video as it awould allow me study it in much more detail than I can see on even the clse up cam.
using all of those washes reminds me of watercolor painting. Looks good
