Practical painting. That’s what I’m about and what this channel was created for.
There are many channels out there that focus on very intricate miniature painting and they are great for learning how to win the next Golden Daemon award.
But most gamers live with the more real issue of having too many unpainted and unbuilt miniatures, and not enough time to work on them.
In my videos, I focus on high efficiency techniques to get your miniatures on the tabletop faster, without sacrificing quality or pride of work.
I’ll share techniques that I’ve used for years, and ones I learn in my continuing journey. I hope that this will help you speed up your work and start to field fully painted armies!

Great tip 🙌 thank you!
Damn dude, this video is great, it's unbelievable that it only got less than 2k views after 7 months, this is extremely good, good job man
can i also use micro mask to cover the parts i want to keep clear? I used to do that to Bandai Star Wars kits.
@@gregds1 absolutely. That’s a good strategy too
I think you chose exactly the right green to colour the uniforms but ruined the effect by making the coating to light over the white undercoat. Even after the shade coat the green is too light, I assume that was a speed paint. If I may, I would suggest a grey undercoat so that the uniform adheres more to that dark green the uniforms were actually coloured. Just a suggestion though.
@@Bodkin_Ye_Pointy no it’s Angel Green, an army painter acrylic. I’m not sure the gray primer would help since acrylic paints are pretty opaque. But I understand your point about the green being too light, but my counterpoint is these are really tiny models in epic (18mm) scale. Being a little brighter helps them stand out more.
I find when I put a layer or two of the grim black speedpaint over a pure black primer/thin basecoat it gets this super matte black that just seems to absolutely swallow light, which I find absolutely perfect for my guys.
@@jameji_phd that’s really interesting. And would look very unique on the tabletop too.
Great step-by-step tutorial; I greatly appreciate you providing the specific paints you used, rather than just a generic color!
Great work. The prices for the metal kits are outrageous. But the old plastic stuff is a baragain. Especially if you buy from a 3rd party store. I decided to use a differnt way and cut the KotR on Foot bodys in half to kitbash my Knights. Also Foot Knights with the old bodies look so much better :D
marvelous!
This was a great video! Any chance you can do a Painting BattleTech Clans video?
@@andrewd3799 yup that’s in the gameplan! More BT content coming!
Can the website be in English
The uniform guide website can be translated. Both chrome and edge/explorer have a translator built in.
To prime it, can you use matte black spray paint?
@@AChaChaMan primer is usually stickier than regular paint so it sticks better to bare plastic. It will be harder to rub off. So I’d recommend primer. Black primer (even krylon matte black spray) would be fine.
@@no.6minisso use Matt black spray on primer?
@ yup!
I do the opposite and I use magnet paper. I use hot glue and a washer on the base to also weight down the minis (this helps with tall minis like banners and with the stands getting magnet paper I can cut them out to match any size I need.
@@StuArtGo2 yup that works too.
This tip is awesome, thank you so much. This should be so much higher up when lookoing for magnetic storage solutions!
i have a small gripe with this technique that I'm sad he didn't address which was the pooling at the bottom of the mini. if you look on the skirt of the uniform at 2:12 you can see the wash pooling there giving it a heavy shadow on that specific point. now of course 2 foot butiful rule applies but still
@@leon6er I don’t disagree. That can be mitigated by using less of the wash than I did or by cleaning up the puddling a little with a clean brush before it dries. But a lot of times, the speedpaints that go on afterwards are opaque enough to cover a lot of that.
@ hmm alright I might look into that. I will say it gives a much smoother result that I find really appealing so if it’s that easy of a fix I might try it
Zz zombies 🧟! Ahhh!😮
@@Annihilo not the zombie version 😊
This is perfect timing! My shoretroopers get here tomorrow! Have you tried using Skeleton Bone Primer on them at all? I bought it specifically for them, but yours looks great so im wondering if I should return it
@@King_of_Faerghus no I think skeleton bone primer will work great too. You’ll just apply dark done wash on top of the brown primer minis and skip the pallid bone step. Everything else would be exactly the same.
For your drybrushing are you just stippling the white on?
@@King_of_Faerghus yup that’s basically what I’m doing. Adding a bright white layer only on the surfaces most raised to improve the contrast.
What make is That Russian Officer figure? He would make a very good Commissar 😊😊😊
They will sing songs about this brilliant video from the Halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli.
Where can I find similar videos of this method? I find it interesting. It looks so smooth.
Honestly until I made this video I had never seen this technique on TH-cam before. Which is what compelled me to make the video. It’s not originally my idea but I thought it was a neat suggestion. And I love using it now - and I’ve featured it in many of my other videos.
@@no.6minis really!? Are they labeled or titled in a particular way? Would really like to see more of it.
@craevhergames I use different techniques depending on my project. But here are a few I did that utilized the splash dash method: th-cam.com/video/TOpBCINZ9AE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=PC5RirhpQY5E_lBB th-cam.com/video/iU9XSCIu9x0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LS5YdKFbMzNzju3g th-cam.com/video/RTgjWMBL6ik/w-d-xo.htmlsi=9M8X66J-pt7f0hG2 th-cam.com/video/eQVmQugb5v8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2COpsqO3sV5wnvuD th-cam.com/video/vpEX3E15Jyk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=MlFUrCJDKZF-JDbr
@@no.6minis thanks! Will watch them now!
We can also get this in from the mordor battle pack is that correct?
@@CornishRatBeard yes, you are correct!
Can you make more magnetizing videos, infact more on battle for middle earth, especially with the film and starter pack coming out I think you should definitely jump on it 👌 I've just bought the osgiliath starter pack so would you have any tips a year on for me? Painting, magnetizing etc? 🤔
@@CornishRatBeard I’m definitely looking out for the new starter set. Looks really exciting and I’m probably going to get it! Videos are definitely to follow. As for the Osgiliath starter set, I have several videos on it that you can check out in my library. If you have any further questions, though, just let me know!
Don't, Dont, Don't paint the eyes ! (13:05) Beginners think it adds the 'wow' factor that the eyes are painted but in reality two splodgy fried eggs the size of the figures entire cheek make your figures look totally amateurish and goofy. Trust me, just leave the eye area below the peak of the cap dark, it will look a lot better- and it's even quicker.
@@MrVolvobloke they’re not that bad and I think eyes add character. But you’re not wrong. It’s faster just to make them dark and forget about them.
If i wanted to do this paint scheme but instead of army painter products if have to choose between Biel-Tan green shade paint from citadel or hexwraith flame contrast (speed) paint from citadel or a 3rd option also another shade paint- coelia green shade from citadel…….which of those 3 would be the best green to use?
I use mainly Army Painter paints so I can’t say for sure. Hoping for others to leave some feedback.
How do you make These?
@@TheMathGuy-v6z these are from Warlord Games for their “Black Powder Epic Battles: Waterloo” game.
@@no.6ministhanks!
Great video, I found it very helpful. Just one helpful tip I wanted to give you though, the word bridle is actually pronounced bry-dle. Bry as in dry. It's definitely confusing with the way its spelled.
Hey always room for improvement! Thanks for the point out.
Subscribed - great that you use AP paints
@@IntruziX yes I’ve been using AP for years. Their first formulations were serviceable, but very inconsistent and the first version of Speedpaints reactivated. But their 2.0 speedpaints and now the Fanatics line are just fantastic.
Really appreciate these battle for middle earth videos. Keep em coming
Good job, simple and affective…thank you. 👍🏼
Safety fourth. First second and third
Very true
Very nice work!
Loved every second of this, thank you!
i would have thought the wash would reactivate under a speed paint, nothing beats an air brush but i certainly understand the struggle of not having one, or even not having both a black and white primer, looks like a painted mini to me and that's leagues above some unpainted armys ive seen, nice tech
The wash doesn’t re activate. Once dry it’s permanent.
My first model of Warhammer. I just buy and think: how do more "smart". ( I like more classic modelist dude this historical tanks, but like then models have functionality. ) This video so useful.
Awesome painting, love the pre shader method im gonna start applying it on my minis
Thanks for an excellent guide, I just finished painting my own starterset, and I found your easy step-by-step guide, both informative and motivating. Keep up the good work. (Y)
Can i use speedpaint beowulf blue instead highlord blue?
@@kiithsomtaaw2433 yeah if that’s the tint you prefer definitely. It’s deeper colored and a little purple but should be fine.
@@no.6minis 👍
Those wings look great! 😎 I'm going to try that method. When you say keep them wet is there a specific process for that?
@@lessharkboy I’ve heard it being referred to as wet blending before. And it does work really well!
@@no.6minis thanks, I'll give it a go.
wait... one of them comes with a Missile launcher? maybe I can use these guys for kill team
@@RAINBOWBEARMAN it was kitbashed actually. Here’s the video on how it’s done: Kit-Bash! Necromunda Ironhead Squat Prospectors as Warhammer 40K Hearthkyn Warriors th-cam.com/video/lrFz0bvRO7Y/w-d-xo.html
@@no.6minis thank you! exactly what i was looking for. I want to make them my kill team
Great video , very educational 10/10
I believe Picton wore a blue civilian overcoat with a black top hat at Waterloo coming directly from the Duchess of Richmond's ball in Brussels. His figure is included in the Warlord Epic Generals pack. Nice painting!! Artillery looks great, so does the mounted officer. Have fun, and be well!!
@@bruceschmidt3404 awesome tidbit about Picton. Thank you!
This is actually very smart, but I think these two technics should be used together! The slap-chop method is great for something like armor that should have a texture, while the splash-dash is great for clothes and other smooth and things. I think this is revolutionary!
Is there anyone playing brood brothers competitively?
Incredible figures and painting sir. You are an artist and teacher.
This game looks beautiful, is it still supported?
@@RecklessFables yes it’s still pretty active. I’m an advocate for it at my local game story. There’s an official Black Seas Facebook page on Facebook you can join that has the company and the game creator actively on it.
This is brilliant I am going to try it on my schooner set...thank you
I think this is a marvellous idea for people like me that hate painting 😂😂😂
