Fantastic job! You make it look way to easy lol
When are you going to do another Dark Angels Tutorial? (I'll never stop)
Haha! Might do a Deathwing one if there's interest? :)
And dont forget the ravenwing
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides there is interest for sure! :) Thanks for the amazing tutorial! I have a question though - why didn't you use Caliban Green for the armour?
@@KociKociamber thank you
I did a few tests with various greens before I started this tutorial and the green I felt matched the artwork from the books and codex etc best was the Scale 75 paint.
For me the colour is richer and cleaner looking. The added bonus of it being super matte I think adds to the Dark Angel aesthetic
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides Yes please! :D
Incredible work. I am just beginning in 40 and chose the Dark Angels as my army. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain and demonstrate everything. I found it incredibly helpful. I have not painted my first model yet but this video has set my mind at ease and motivated me to get going on building my army. Thanks again.
Welcome to the hobby! 😀
Thanks for watching the video and taking the time to comment.
Really glad it has put your mind at ease. Painting your first mini can be really daunting, but I promise you it’s actually great fun and there’s no better feeling than finishing painting a mini.
All I would say, is don’t put yourself under pressure or be hard on yourself if you make mistakes. Just go with it and remember, mistakes are part of learning and there’s nothing which can’t be put right.
Have fun 👍🏻
Great tip with the toothpick! I'm definitely going to remember that!
This paint scheme is how I imagine the Dark Angels I plan on building to be like! The only criticism I have with the video is no guide on painting the shield, due to it being a complex piece, but I fell in love with this scheme. The green is perfect for me since it's not dark enough to be almost black but not bright enough to be confused for a Salamander. Like walking through a tightly packed forest with enough light to see in. Love it and great video!
This video made me a Dark Angels player when I was getting interested in warhammer I just watched a couple of painting tutorials and lore videos. When I saw this thumbnail I knew what army I was going to play because I love knights and the colour green so thank you for getting me into the hobby.
This has made my day, week, year!
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
To know my painting has inspired someone to start the hobby is truly epic
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides Thank you for getting me into an amazing hobby. I have met so many people because of this hobby and have learned so many different skills.
I couldn't tell you how many times I've watched this video. It's a lot. I'm now starting on my Dark Angels Company Veterans and I'm using your instructions for their robes. Thank you!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Really great to hear you’ve enjoyed this video and are finding it useful.
Please feel free to watch it many more times 😉
this are the kind of paint guides i love, very detailed with the tips for someone who is not very versated in painting, most of the guides you can find on youtube dont speak about the several layers of some kind of colors like the gold and bone ones. TVM
Thanks very much for watching
Really great to hear you enjoyed it and found it useful 👍
Beautiful model, chill video, nicely done.
One of the Best Dark Angel painted figure Brilliant
Thanks for watching man 👍🏻
Thank you for the wet toothpick trick. You learn something everyday!
Amazing! I'm new to 40k and I can see myself coming back to this video A LOT in the next couple weeks.
Thank you
And Welcome to 40K! Really glad you enjoyed the video and hope it proves useful over the next couple of weeks. Please do let me know how you get on
Owwww!
Man how did i not know of this painter?
Amazing truly loved the content beautifully executed
Thank you
Glad you found the channel 👍🏻
Absolutely stunning work
Thank you 🙏🏻
Great! Thank you! Very nice video, what I was looking for.
Glad you enjoyed the video
Brilliant tip about the toothpick.
Thank you.
I thought it would be helpful to show that things don't always go to plan but that doesn't need to be the end of the world :)
Best dark angel paint job i have seen! Thanks for the video.
Thank you, that’s an amazing compliment 🙏🏻
Really glad you enjoyed the video
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides you are very welcome. I am a new subscriber so i don't know what your plans are for future videos but i have been looking for a green paint scheme for my Imperial night. I would love to see your take on it or any tips on it would be much appreciated. And thanks for replying so soon.
Great outcome, thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
Appreciate you checking out my channel 👍🏻
Great tutorial!
Love the finish on those scale 75 paints
This is so helpful! I was looking to shade my Black Templars tabards ✨
Thanks for sharing. Appreciated.
No problem
Hope it helps
Really helped me improve my cloth painting :)
That’s awesome to hear, thank you 👍🏻
Amazing paintwork! U make it look so easy 😀. Just working my way through the new Heroquest figures, I will give these a go after 👍
Thanks man 👍🏻
I’m glad you said it looks easy, as I want people to feel “hey, I can do that”.
I want to encourage people to paint.
A lot of channels make things look so complicated and I think that puts a lot of people off giving things a go
Great tutorial! Glad I found your channel, will subscribe to see more!
Thank you and welcome aboard 👍🏻
Your support is really appreciated
Doing the joints with eshin grey then washing it is a great idea
Thank you.
It works so well, as you get shading and highlight in one hit. And it gives a great, sort of wetsuit type look too.
Strong Tutorial!
Thanks for watch. Hope you found it useful 👍🏻
Literally just bought the scale 75 green set and Lazarus this morning, videos fantastic and cant wait to try it
Thanks for watching, you’ll have to let me know how you get on and what you think to the scale 75 paints 👍🏻
I shall, I'm relatively new to scale 75, only back into the hobby in the last 10 months, the Metallics I love love love and eclipse grey makes for a great black.
Going to push my limits with Lazarus
Your content is so good. Love the laid back style. A Brushstroke video is a treat.
Thank you :D Really glad you enjoyed it
Looks amazing!
Thank you 🙂
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides .. no, thank you! it's a work of art but captured 'live in the making'. Love the soft bone-tones.
@@kendo5862 you are very kind
Great video...love the relaxing music and the beautiful paint job. A quick question...the armour joints which you base coat with Eshin grey and then wash with Nuln Oil...do you highlight these as well or just leave after these two steps? Thanks in advance for your help!
Thank you 🙏🏻
The armour joints are indeed just a two step process. I find the nuln oil is enough to give contrast to the ridges
Thanks for checking out my channel
Hello mate ! Big thanks you for this really lovely tutorial everything from building the mini to painting is documented on your channel, every step is explained with dedication and you even show us the mistakes you do unlike some other TH-camrs, even tough I'm not a native English speaker your example and gesture do translate everything, and cherry on the top the model look so gorgeous, big thank u from France !!
Ps: if you do ever remember do you have the name or the references of the brush you use ? I do paint with old brush and almost every time there is a hairs dropping into the paint
Hi
Thanks so much for watching the video and checking out my channel. I’m really glad to hear you enjoyed the video and were able to follow it even though it’s not in your native language.
In terms of brushes, I use Artis Opus series S brushes. They are a natural sable hair brush and are lovely to paint with.
They’re quite expensive but if you use brush soap after each session, they last for years.
Here’s a link where to get them, hope it helps and I hope you watch more videos on the channel 👍🏻
elementgames.co.uk/paints-hobby-and-scenery/paints-hobby-and-scenery-by-manufacturer/artis-opus/single-brushes?d=10493
Thanks a lot for the response I know what I will get for me this Christmas!! And obviously I will keep watching the next videos coming out
Hi, thank you for a fantastic and very informative video. As someone that is returning to the hobby after an absence of well over a decade - and a new Dark Angels fan - would it be possible to provide a selection of paints that are absolutely essential for a similar scheme please? Obviously, the more I paint, the better i will get, but at the moment such a comprehensive selection will not suit my rather modest abilities.
Thanks again for the video. Subscribed.
I see Dark Angels, I click subscribe.
Your support is very much appreciated 👍🏻
Thanks
Thanks for watching
Brilliant
Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Boss, all boss!!!! Not quite enough Deathwing but that's just me
Thanks for watching man
I’m pretty sure I’ll end up doing a Deathwing version, cos this was so much fun to paint 👍🏻
Hey man, sorry if I've missed it but could you describe how you assemble the model once the components are individually painted? I've never had much luck using plastic glue to stick painted surfaces to each other, and usually scrape some paint off or use blu-tack to mask the joining sections. I'd love some tips on assembling painted models without crying!
I'd also like to request a White Scars tutorial, because my favourite chapter are making my life hard. Amazing channel!
I don't normally bother posting comments like this, but this video was really impressive. I'm a Dark Angels player so perhaps I'm biased, but here's what you do well in my opinion.
The intro is cool (and mercifully short).
The music throughout is really chill, I've got a lot of time for that.
The unique camera angles make the video more interesting and are subtly really helpful, specifically the close-ups especially when you're painting details.
Naming all the colours, and the manufacturers.
The list of paints (AND WHERE TO BUY THEM) is amazing, who else does that? I admire that it's your own bundle on EG's website too, well played!
The description is really well written, and the video is sectioned off so when I come back I can find the part I need, great stuff.
All in all, really professional shit man, well done - The model looks great too!
If I had my way I would make you do a Deathwing and Ravenwing video as well, I appreciate that's a big ask, but hey! Don't ask don't get!
Keep up the good work, I wish you all the best in the future. Liked, subbed and shared.
Thank you for taking the time to write your comment. Your feedback is both generous and gratefully received. It is very pleasing to hear that my videos are useful to people and achieving what I have aimed to create.
I know I’m not the most skilled of video creators, so I have simply tried to keep things clean and simple. Very much like my painting really. 🙂
Your support and sub is much appreciated, I hope you will continue to enjoy the content I have planned in the future too
Great tutorial! Hoping to paint up this exact model soon. Love your video style.
What is your opinion on SC75 metallic paints compared to GW ones?
Thank you, really glad you enjoyed the video. 🙂
Scale75 metallics are nice, their coverage isn’t as good as GW’s new base metallics, like liberators gold, but they have a high metallic fleck level and make really nice smooth finishes
Thanks! What paint brush did you use?
Something as simple sounding as thinning your paint to the proper consistency always gives me a hard time. I miss the good old days before the internet when I could just paint my miniatures in blissful ignorance, straight from the "testors enamel" glass pots lol. Great video 👍
thanks for watching
Do you think it would be useful if I made a video on thinning paints?
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides I'm thinking the problem is all me. I just can't grasp what the proper consistency should be. I've seen people on youtube paint base coats strictly with air brush paints because they're already thinned down and can go directly from the pot on the minny in just a few coats. Then they go in and highlight/edge highlight with regular acrylics. No wet pallets or thinning involved.
Damn, thats a crispy boi.
Thank you 🤛🏻
Great paint job! Could you do one for Crimson Fists please?
I have done a picture based guide a while back (before I started this channel) if that helps?
instagram.com/p/Bv3TjdcH0Sr/?igshid=1e8e6mxcrg0vu
Great colour scheme! The other day I just stripped this same figure... because I painted green armour instead of Death Wing bone☹ if I had seen your post I would probably have kept the original. Oh well. Back to the hobby table
Yeah, I've seen a lot of Deathwing versions, and I totally get why. This was the only mini I had which looked Dark Angely so I went with the classic Greenwing scheme because that's what people were requesting a guide on.
I think the green scheme really suits the mini now it's done, so I'm glad I used it for the video and not just a standard marine.
thanks for watching, appreciate it
Would love a space wolves painting guide to go with your snow bases from your first video
Actually, that snow basing was for Space Wolves. It was before I had my TH-cam channel though, so I just did a picture paint guide:
instagram.com/p/BuLnel6nZPL/?igshid=i7ydheakfrzp
Great videoas always! One question, did these models came from a special combat patrol box or any box in particular?
Thanks man
This mini is a bit of a kitbash based on the captain from the Indomitus boxset.
I dont think it was ever released as a separate mini again though, but they're still pretty easy to find on ebay.
For the kitbash I just swapped the head, gave him the mace and swapped the backpack to a DA version
Hope that helps
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides Thank you for your answer!
Great video! How do you keep your brush tip so hard when you edge highlight?
Thank you
Main tips really are to twist your brush into a point as you load your paint and then when you are edging just touch the bristles to the model very lightly.
If they bend at all you’re pressing too hard. You just want to try and glide over the surface barely touching at all.
That way you get a fine line and it doesn’t disturb your tip
Can I ask what sort of time scale did it take to paint this figure?
What kit is this model from? Definitely one of the coolest Dark Angel characters I've seen ever. Spectacularly painted too!
Thank you
The mini is a converted marine from the Indomitus boxset, with just a head swap and mace added.
I love this video, thank you so much. This will be my new method. What head swap did you use?
Thank you
The head was from an old Dark Angels kit, I’m not sure which. A friend was kind enough to let me have some parts from their bits box so I grab some cool looking DA parts and used them on this mini.
I’ll see if I can find out which kit the hooded head is from
OK, I think the parts have come from the Dark Angels Deathwing Knights box
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides well it looks great, I'm excited to try it soon. I think the forest green is perfect.
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides Close! Those have emblems on hood or a different shape. I discovered this one looks like the one from the standard Ravenwing Bike Squad.
This is great job. Now, I wonder how you would paint Plague Marines? Just such a loose thought of mine;p. Also, as a side note - Caliban Green is only a 1/3 of a Chapter. While Ravenwing is black, like Black Templars or Raven Guard, painting almost white bone white of Deathwing is probably more, hmm, I shall say Unforgiving. That would be nice, too!
Ooo! now plague marines are very cool and would make for a good video, with all their mutations and goo ;)
I'll add it to the list for sure.
In terms of the other two armour colours for Dark Angels, I would probably do the Ravenwing using the black armour recipe I used for my Votann. The matte finish would be badass for them
th-cam.com/video/XXYFAdWli80/w-d-xo.html
and for the Deathwing armour, I would use the same recipe I used for the robes in this video and then do the robes the same as the armour from this video. Basically just switching them around.
Hope that helps :)
Great guide !! Just done this like for like, however when I do the second round of Black Forest green after the nuln oil, the paint doesn’t seem to blend it goes straight back to its Matt finish? Am I something wrong? Much appreciated👍🏻
So it sounds like the nuln oil is drying a bit glossy. This can happen with washes (no matter how hard you shake them)
When this happens you can either apply a thin coat of matte varnish over the area or what I tend to do is just brush on a thin layer of Lahmian Medium and that is enough to dull the shine and make things blend together easier.
You can even do this after you’ve added the second coat of the black Forrest green if you hadn’t noticed the nuln oil being slightly glossy.
The difference is more pronounced when using S75 paints because they are so matte.
I hope that helps? 👍
I love the video would it be ok if I used Caliban Green from Citadel as the base coat? I don't have access to shade75 products in my region of Canada. If not what's the closet base color you can suggest from Valejo or citadel. Thank you and I extremely love your work
Thank you
Unfortunately citadel don’t really make a green which is the same as the Scale75 paint. It’s not just the colour shade it’s the matte-ness of its tone too.
I appreciate Canada is a huge place, so sorry if this isn’t of use, but this online store claims to be Canada based and perhaps is of use?

Your my hero thank you kind Sir 🙏
@@Chomperoni23 no problem, let me know what you think to the paint 👍🏻
SC75 is God tier paint. I love its matte finish
I agree, the matte finish is amazing
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides Mine doesn't seem to have good coverage and it ends up patchy, even after a few coats =( I love that shade of green though!
James, how tall are these minis? Excellent work.
Thank you
They’re 28mm scale
Great paint job and loved the face. My hands and eyes are no longer good enough to paint eyes in ☹️
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed the video
wow! if i ever get to half your skill i would be doing well
Thank you, you’re very kind.
The secret really is just getting your base coats on cleanly and smoothly. After that everything looks good 👍
New sub👍
Welcome to my humble channel.
You are most welcome and appreciated 👍🏻
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides thank you. Got some great tips from your video and I enjoyed the production. The sub is my appreciation for your work and time. I hope you get many more! Work is class.
where the head and the mace of absolution are from? great job, thank you
Thanks
The head and mace were donated by a friend. I think the head is from an old upgrade kit and I’m guessing the mace is from the Deathwing Knights set
www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Deathwing-Knights-2020
Did you mix the indomitus captain and the arm from deathwing knight right?
Yes, that’s right
Great tutorial....I'm a returning gamer and have always had a soft spot for Dark Angels and have purchased the Lion but wanted to ask where this model is from and what the name of it is as it's an amazing piece! Got to try this with my own work :)
Thanks for watching man, really glad you liked it.
The mini is a slightly kitbashed captain from the Indomitus boxset.
I swapped the head to a hooded version and added the mace 👍
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuidesThanks for the really quick reply! I'll see if they've released it as an individual model and I'm definitely following your method.... Thanks for your efforts it's a fantastic help 👍
I’m not sure they ever did release it as a separate mini.
Theyre pretty easy to pick up on eBay, still on sprue though
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204359360762?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=l6q1smairte&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Looking at it, I must have swapped out the backpack too. Sorry, forgot that 😬
FYI I managed to finish my effort on this model....I'm really pleased with it and wanted to thank you for the inspiration!
@@philsilva13 that’s awesome to hear man. Really happy my mini inspired you 👍
This is amazing but I can't afford to buy all the paints he used! Can anyone recommend something ? I live in Canada so I can't order those bundles unfortunately
Will it be fine to airbrush the first layer of green or should I just stick to the brush? Defintley gonna try duplicate this regardless as love the end result you get with the green.
Should be no problem to airbrush the base green layer.
If you have an airbrush, make the most of it 👍🏻
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides Thanks mate, if mine turns out half as good as yours ill be happy lol
Looks so good. Wish it was all just one brand of paint 😅
Thank you.
Sorry about the mix of paint ranges. What I like to try and do it introduce people to different paints and show what finishes they can produce, to give them ideas and perhaps inspire them to branch out from say just GW and try other brands.
I do try and provide links for where to get the paints I use to help make it easier.
I appreciate not everyone has access to every paint range, so if there is a particular range you’re struggling with I’ll try and suggest alternatives if you let me know? 👍🏻
@Brushstroke Painting Guides hi mate thanks for the reply and it was in no way meant as criticism! Your style is one of my favourite I've come across on YT.
If you could convert all of that to just citadel paints in sure a few of us would appreciate that. Thanks
Thank you, I really appreciate it. 👍🏻
I’m not sure there’s exact matches for all the paints used in this scheme, but I’ll see what I can come up with
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides No stress, can't wait till see more dark angels painted! Maybe a dreadnought 🤤😍
how do you make your brushes pen like? they are so precise no bend yet apply great amounts of paint.
Perhaps this would be a good topic for a video?
The answer though, is a few different things.
Firstly, you need your brush to be in good condition. That doesn’t mean it has to be expensive but you just need to treat it well and clean it regularly so it continues to hold a point.
Next the bristles need to be damp before you load your paint.
If they’re too dry, the paint will lose some moisture to the bristles and won’t flow smoothly. Too wet and the paint will simply drip from the brush. I tend to rinse my brush and then paint the excess water on to my thumb, which leave the bristles ready for paint.
Finally, when you load your brush with paint you want to give it a little twist as you draw the brush back along the palette. By twisting as you draw the brush back you will cause the bristles to form back into a point ready to paint.
I hope that helps a bit?
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides that would be much appreciated! I think one of my problems in the quality of the painting itself is im not getting good brushstrokes with goo amounts of paint on them, plus the brushs kinda break part mid stroke. They are cheap brushes so not expecting great quality but ill be getting some better ones soon. A video on this subject would be gold! I havent seen any videos that really show or display the how to actually paint part of the whole experience. So maybe a guide of what to do at the beginning of the paint session to what to do inbetween to what to do when ending the session in terms of the brushes and paints themselves. Thanks alot for the info, Cheers!
Awesome! But why didn't you record painting the shield??
Sorry, it was intended as a video on painting the armour and if I recall the footage from painting the shield wasn’t the best, so it hit the cutting room floor in the edit.
Painting on camera is not something which comes natural to me and it’s still something I struggle with 😩
The shield was painted with all the paints mentioned in the video, but I’d be very happy to answer any questions you may have as I appreciate it’s not as clear as it could have been
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides that's ok, just curious if i missed a video or something. Keep going, you are extremely talented and i enjoy watching and listening to your videos! :)
Thank you 🙏🏻
The mini itself looks so goddamn cool. Anyone know what it is or if its an amalgamation of parts ?
Thank you.
It’s a little kitbash of the captain mini from the Indomitus boxset with a few Dark Angels elements added, such as the hooded head and the mace
Where did you get the good and mace
What brushes do you recommend
These are my go to brushes

i cant get Darkstar Molten Metals Graphite, do think there is a replacement for this colour?
I've had a few people mention that, I've been in touch with Darkstar and they are expecting some very soon.
A close alternative would be GW's iron hands steel

Thank you
Yes, this is the mini features on Warhanmer TV’s hobby roundup
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides awesome congrats 🎈🍾🎉
@@KillyBones thanks 😀
Heresy upon that hoodie.
Any chance of a vid comparing some skin tone sets? I have no idea which one to go with.
Scale75 have: "Flesh Paint Set" and "Velvet Skin".
AK Interactive have: "Flesh and Skin Colors" and "Human Flesh Tones".
Vallejo have: "Face Painting Set" and "Fleshtones".
Vallejo also has the 16 bottle "Face and Skin Tones" set. But I think that might be overkill for a noob.
@@BloopTube more looking for maximum flexibility. I want to be able to pain any race skin tone. African, Caucasian, Asian and every other race.
Does anyone know where I can get the head with the cape from?
Best bet is to keep an eye on eBay and bits sites like megabitzshop.com & bitzbox.co.uk
There are trade groups on Facebook where you can ask people if they have hooded heads etc and of course you can try your local gaming club and ask around there if anyone has spare parts :)
The wooden cocktail trick is so good, what the fuck?!
Thanks man
I hope it helped show people that things don’t always go right first time and a cool way to help correct things 👍🏻
where did you get the mace btw, thanks.
A friend kindly gave me it from their bits box
I believe its from a Deathwing command set

Can i use Reikland Fleshshade instead of Light tone?
No, reikland fleshshade is a very different colour. It is more red in tone, where as Light Tone is a soft tan colour.
Hope that helps?
Thanks for watching

Don't want to be complicated but whats the GW equivalent paint for Black Forest Green ? Thanks

Hi, yes I always paint with a wet palette. I prefer it. It’s just a homemade one, I don’t see the point in the expensive shop bought ones
“mojave” is pronounced “mow-HAH-vey” and it’s a desert over here across the pond! it’s named for one of the native american people from the region.
Thanks 👍
I really should just put a disclaimer at the start of my vids
“All pronunciation likely to be wrong, sorry for any offence it may cause” 🙂
You need to do lion
Which model is this exactly?
It's the captain from the Indomitus boxset with a slight conversion to add a hooded head and mace
I’m trying to follow your guide but mine doesn’t look as Smooth
So, to see how I get a smooth results, give this a watch I think it will help you a lot

Is the dark angels primaris captain deathwing?
I believe Deathwing have bone coloured armour, so this paint scheme is technically Greenwing armour. I’m planning to do a guide for Deathwing armour too
Cool, I am definitely looking forward to it!
It was space hulk deathwing that got me wanting to play 40k but I didn't like how old the models were so I got into death guard, and am quite bored to be honest. Maybe its time to return to the emperor, but the Dark Angels are so secretive I wouldn't be surprised if they turned out to be Alpha Legion because no one knows where they have gotten off to.
My problem is there are so many different types of paint used on this excellent model! That it would be expensive to buy all of those paints
Yeah, that’s the problem with models being so detailed these days.
If you were going to be painting a Dark Angels army, you’d end up needing those paints for sure. For one model, it’s obviously a lot.

Such a big brush

pls black templar
I’ve been eyeing up the new BT champion mini. Would make for a great guide video
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides too long. How to paint now 😂
haha well if time is of the essence, I did a pic paint guide a while back which is the same recipe I'd use in the video

Really loved the finished product but that mace glow made the weapon look far worse imo.
Video was reasonably easy to follow but was quite a few steps so i would probably only got to this level of effort for characters personally. Would have been nice to achieve a simpler decent standard across the whole model first, then add on additional steps for pushing the scheme further.
Nice tutorial but a little heavy on the ads.
Thank you
Sorry about the ads, they’re done by TH-cam not me I’m afraid.
I’ve taken a look though and I’ve tried to tone them down, so hopefully things are better now?
Khorne Red on a purity seal? Sounds like heresy to me.
Haha 😆
You know, I never thought of that… you might be right 🤔
Thanks for watching
What dark angels? What army is that? Oh the one that use to be in the game, right.
It's called a toothpick...
Yeah, toothpicks are pointy bits of wood too. In the UK we have cocktail sticks which are for sticking in food to make them easier to pick up, like cherrys in cocktails or pieces of cheese at a buffet. You're right though, they're just the same thing
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides They're toothpicks! Go back to your own country!

My boyfriend has soft wet wood .....
Haha I’m sorry to hear that 🤣
@@BrushstrokePaintingGuides Dont be, I made him wet and soft!
hopefully now he'll stop lolololol
😉
Nice tutorial. I have several scale 75 paints, but they seem to come out thick. What's your recommended water to paint ratio?
Thanks for watching
Yes, Scale75 are more gloopy compared to GW paints.
There’s no real ratio though, it about getting them moving.
Give this a watch as it explains what I mean and why it’s not about a ratio
