#OverBrushing
I think of editing like brushing hair. It's good to gently get the tangles out but overbrushing might cause you to shed some of the good stuff

i've been drawing smiley's hair messier and messier because he hasn't really been combing it or washing it as much lately lol. in my mind his usual hairstyle was due to overwashing and overbrushing

brushing for 15 minutes is overbrushing.

I really would like to get it out there that my partner and I refurbish, repair, and clean fursuits!

We can take care of mold and mildew from storage, deliberate damage from your ex, thinning fur from overbrushing, and so much more.

I want to see more suits last longer! This is a needed service.
Fursuit in rough shape? Do you need ripped seams fixed? Did your fursuit come out of storage moldy?

We offer repair, upgrades, cleaning, and mold remediation on fursuits! More information here:

pris dreams of escaping the edge of that sink, to see the world, do anything else but clean her teeth.

(also, did you know overbrushing is a thing? you can destroy your enamel!)

Trying to be quicker with the last squad of the ult starter combat patrol, heavy wash and overbrushing, then dry brush highlights. Love the look after blacking out for metallics and whatnot, but that still takes me ages.

It is a high standard, but the guys from the Warhammer painting team do a great job of creating achievable and easy to follow tutorials as well, so I don't think people are entirely adrift. The new videos for Saturnine had James on doing overbrushing and Contrast work.

Stress is such an innocuous thing and we're all supposed to just deal with it, but it's killing us nine different ways.
[PC doctor]: "Relax, Steve."
[Dentist]: "Relax, Steve."
[Hygenist]: "You're overbrushing. Just cool it."
[Barista]: "Yr already on decaf."
[Me]: "BUT . . . " [gesturing wildly]

Cw: blood, mild body horror, misguided oral hygiene

So!

For a while there I was overbrushing + getting the bristles too close to the gums, which is normally something I'd have twigged to way sooner. Prolonged burnout = bad intuition

overbrushing is the #1 cause of tooth cancer. remember to brush only when completely necessary, never more than once per day

i know overbrushing is a thing but can you overfloss because interdental brushes are keeping me from chewing on my hands this week

If you Google “slap-chop”, it’s a zenithal priming technique that with GW contrast paints can make getting a solid model done in short order once you get the hang of overbrushing/dry brushing

I was going to mention this too, really like what they're doing on the YouTube channel, James has been awesome. I saw that overbrushing video right before seeing it hands on in store. Good stuff!

#hobbystreak Day 1829: tried overbrushing the carapace and then glazing it, didn't use the right glaze colour and it ended up a bit washy, has turned out decent in a few spots though. Might just need another layer of touch-up

Do I know how the hole got there or how long it's been there? No. No idea. That tooth has always been chipped and slightly bruised from my crowding. My mouth tastes like blood from overbrushing and now I get to be anxious all night 🫠

I thought it was pretty cool my local Warhammer store is doing overbrushing tutorials with the saturnine box to show people you can get a squad of marines painted pretty quickly, and actually looking nice! Trying it out on my infernus marines and enjoying it for sure.

They might have been inspired by the video James and Ollie did on the Warhammer YouTube channel - James knocks out the dreadnought in under an hour with overbrushing!

I spent a pleasant afternoon working on a couple of projects. I'm using different styles and techniques for these, so it was refreshing to switch between them

Now overbrushing is something I figured would be worth trying after seeing a GW video on army painting where he used blue over black. If I was using a more heavy pigmented base paint that would likely be better here but Word Bearers red is a layer paint so I used it over a dark maroon instead.

I'll probably cover the Bass technique for brushing yeah

You don't need to brush longer than 2 minutes - overbrushing is actually a bad thing
