It's so refreshing to see some more approaches to army painting - it's always amazing seeing 'display' or 'character' level paint jobs but you'll tear your hair out when you start trying to replicate that across multiple figures. More army painting wisdom please!
I need to stop watching your videos… Every time I do I start a new army… Used your night lords scheme, your Black templar’s, and now it looks like an Elder army! They just all look so good and are so simple with the airbrush and oil wash. These tutorials have single handily got me back into the hobby and enjoying painting again by not burning out trying to paint a playable army to a high standard. My favourite Warhammer painting TH-cam channel.
This tutorial is awesome, ive been stuck for a while on how to do my new eldar and harlequin models, but kept coming to the same tacky look on my models, I love this dirty quick method as it looks great and gives a nice realism to the models, not to mention you could whizz through a bunch of guys, Please keep up the awesome tutorials will be definitely be subscribing.
Brilliant stuff. I've gone for the classic yellow and black scheme too. Definitely going to introduce the brown shading on the black - adds some great depth! Fantastic effect.
Beautiful! Wouldn't mind seeing a link to that Raven Guard paint job that first inspired you. I'd love to take a look at some more examples of this black-with-red-in-the-shadows concept.
Looks great, I like this style, it's a little worn down, battle tested. I'm getting back to warhammer40k currently and want to paint my eldar Alaitoc scheme, but their flashy yellow doesn't suit my taste. Yellow on your helmet here is perfect though, it has this nice brassy finish and is a bit darker, exactly what I was looking for. Nice informative guide, definetely going to check out more.
Really enjoying these videos or should i say this channel. I have also bought alot of abteilung oil paints but been to timid to open them up and give them a try yet :D I have a stupid question, those little metal mixing cups you use, where can i get them? thanks in advance
@@cultofpaint although I would love to see your take on how to paint aeldari vehicles, a wind rider or a vyper might be a good thing to paint... I'll do one if you do a video on one.
Any chance of some army painting plus for eldar on patreon? Would be really nice to see this on a falcon like the crimson fists video. especially given how the eldar vehicles are so different to the imperials.
Fantastic scheme! The brown/red shade works so well and is a nice alternative for the usual cold, blueish black. I might steal that for my death company. Do you think a mix of BT contrast and Flesh Tearers contrast focused to recesses/shadows would achieve something similar?
What does the brown oil wash give you that a regular acrylic wash wouldn't? I'm not that well versed with oils, I have some but I haven't had much excuse to use them. I love the black, I love what you've done with the oil mix there. Great looking mini overall too :)
Is it possible to achieve this without an airbrush? I’m not feeling that confident with an airbrush and can I use GW Ardcoat and Stormshield as varnish instead of the other ones?
Yes to both. As I say In the video just use a drybrush and Normal hairy brush instead. And varnish is varnish, I’ve just got big bottles of the ones I listed.
@@cultofpaint Yeah I totally overheared that, sorry for that. I am going to try this because it looks so stunning. The way the yellow looks is amazing with the black. I will also try it with my airbrush even though Im still not feeling very comfortable doing it but, it doesn't seem too hard for a beginner. Is there a specific reason why you use Tamiya white?

Thanks! The goal is provide a full range of tutorials. We generally cover display and more advanced army painting over on the Patreon.

Really glad you hear you’re enjoying your hobby! And if you think watching them is bad for temptation, then try making them!!!!
Love it - great watch. What a brilliant but effective recipe for black armour. Hope there's a chance of Biel-tan in the future!
Oh definitely
Love the 2e call back with the yellow helmet!
How nice to see someone use/keep the old school Ulthwé paint scheme! Thank for making and sharing this video!
Thanks Mark

Great to hear!
Great video as per usual, looking forward to seeing you tackle the old Biel-Tan.
Can’t wait either

Thanks Andrew. Yeah that old scheme is just so striking.
Looks excellent! Really liked how the red shade on black turned out. I'll have to try that on some of my future models.
It’s fun to play around with
Absolutely awesome. Ill use some of your tips in my Drukhari army 😊 thank you!
Nice!
Love it. As usual 😉 I hope that Iyanden will be done soon. Got some wraith constructs waiting for some paint 😄
Great tutorial. Simple but really effective.
Thanks for sharing.

Great work!
Black and yellow is a favorite combination of mine. My GSC have a similar colour scheme.
Such a great combo right. Bet it looks great on GSC
Excellent work! Would be really interested to see your take on a similar approach with the Saim-Hann craftworld scheme.
Andy is doing a Saim Hann army project so he'll cover his recipes etc with that very soon.
Great video....easy to follow well explained
Glad you think so!
Brilliant mate. Never considered using oils like that before! I also need to get myself an airbrush.
Oils are a ton of fun. And if you’re able to then an airbrush really is a great tool to have.
Amazing scheme, the only question I ever really have from these videos is what would you do to take it to the next step for characters etc?
Really enjoying these videos or should i say this channel. I have also bought alot of abteilung oil paints but been to timid to open them up and give them a try yet :D
I have a stupid question, those little metal mixing cups you use, where can i get them? thanks in advance
Glad you’re enjoying the channel Peter. Just get stuck into the oils, they are a lot of fun. For the dishes just search “metal mixing dish for paint”
Not a big fan of eldar, but a fan of CoP.
ME too, until this week!
@@cultofpaint although I would love to see your take on how to paint aeldari vehicles, a wind rider or a vyper might be a good thing to paint...
I'll do one if you do a video on one.
When are the new t shirts going on sale, "I'm very very, tempted" should be you new catch phrase 😆
haha i know right
that yellow almost looks like a nmm gold, amazing job
The yellow contrast paints are great to have in the kit.
Looks great! Any chances for more rare craftworlds like Mymeara or Luganath?
For sure
Any chance of some army painting plus for eldar on patreon? Would be really nice to see this on a falcon like the crimson fists video. especially given how the eldar vehicles are so different to the imperials.
Sure thing, I'll chuck up a poll with a few vehicle options.
@@cultofpaint Amazing!
Fantastic scheme! The brown/red shade works so well and is a nice alternative for the usual cold, blueish black. I might steal that for my death company. Do you think a mix of BT contrast and Flesh Tearers contrast focused to recesses/shadows would achieve something similar?
Yeah i reckon the contrast mix could work for sure. You might find just gore grunta on its own does the job, its very red.
@@cultofpaint ahh good call, thanks! I'll give it a go when my dc is ready to paint.
Love it. Do you have a link for the Raven Guard model that inspired your black?
I just googled image searched Ravenguard art, there's a few of them with the red in the shadows.
would this technique for black work on vehicle panels like a wave serpent?
Yea absolutely
More videos with dog shakes and scratches. Great scheme, that red brown oil wash works really well
She'll be on camera before you know it!
What does the brown oil wash give you that a regular acrylic wash wouldn't? I'm not that well versed with oils, I have some but I haven't had much excuse to use them.
I love the black, I love what you've done with the oil mix there. Great looking mini overall too :)
Check out the vid we did on different washes and pros/cons m.th-cam.com/video/19h5wmt8pNU/w-d-xo.html
Can't afford patreon right now so hopefully and like and a comment will still be helpful. :)
Great vid, plans for more craftworlds?
Thanks for the support. I'll be working my way through the major ones over the next couple of weeks.
Were the 2nd edition ulthwe vehicles painted with the same yellow instead of a bone colour?
I'd love to see Alaitoc Camo... I have a 20 year old Alaitoc army ive never finished because I can't get the camo right.
Coming up!
@@cultofpaint Thanks!, you may yet save my Spotty minis 🤣
Do we know the name of the song used at the beginning before the video starts? Love it👌🏻👌🏻
Is in description near the bottom
Great tutorial as always. Any recommendations for GW paints that would be similar to Dark Sea Grey and Dark Sea Green?
Skavenblight dinge would be pretty decent substitute
What do you use on the base?
Would you use the same method on vehicles? Just wondering how to replicate the tint on the big armour panels.
By the tint do you mean the yellow? Or the oil wash?
@@cultofpaint the oil wash 👍🏼
@@cultofpaint the oil wash 👍🏼
Nice tutorial as usual! One question, I checked Vallejo71048 on website, but it names Engine grey but not dark sea grey. Are they same?
They will be, always go by the numbers with Vallejo.
@@cultofpaint Ah the dark sea gray is 71.053 and a bit darker than engine gray im thinking thats probably the one used?

Whatever happened with Andy's Lumineth army?
Life. But we're pushing him to get it to at least 1k
Dog followed Bob Ross' advice and proceeded to "beat the devil out of it" ;)
I feel like you missed some gems there? xD
nah those are them little nobbly bits arent they
"Dog waking up ASMR" when?
I'll add it to the list
Sausage dog?
Lurcher
Airbrush...
Great tutorial. Simple but really effective.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Phil
