Splatter Effects on Miniatures - Blood, Mud & Dirt

How to get a lovely splatter effect on miniatures and terrain. I have frequently been creating a lot of splattered mud on my miniatures, to give them a bit more grit. And I wanted to share how I have been going about getting this done, a simple but effective technique.

Hala Pinta, friend! Thanks for plugging our community!

I feel the same: the randomness the straw provides feels or natural than the airbrush one, and it's available to virtually anyone.

Glad you made it clear paint consistency is key to make it work.

These storm cast really look the way they should, better that GW studio IMHO. I meant it Alex. Golden retributor armour is iconic already but black armour, the otherworldly blueish glow and the dirt splatters look killer really fitting the lore.

Fantastic arsenal of tricks you got under your sleeve, sir. 😉

Amazing content both entertaining and informative as always.

Lovely expansion on the splattering. Going in with a brush to hightlight some areas realy makes it so much better

this is a gem among all the miniatur painting videos

Cool effects, gives a subtle orange and blue contrast! For big pieces, you can also load a toothbrush with paint and flick the bristles with your thumb.

I’ve recently gotten into Horus Heresy, and one of the legions I wanna play as are the World Eaters. I feel like this tutorial will help adding some nice gore effects for my army.

Hala Pinta!!! I was looking for tips on how to apply blood/blood splatters, this video really helped.. Thank you for this technique!

What a ingenious technique. Can't wait to try this.

Thank you! I just bought a pre-painted miniature that I wanted to add a gunshot wound to, but have never painted anything in my life. I wouldn’t have thought of using clay to protect areas I didn’t want the splatter to reach.

Wish me luck. 👋😁

Lovely explanation and step-by-step. And together with another video you really got me thinking about the Green stuff world pigments
