I used your tutorial for my void dragon and I have to thank you as he looks insane. I stayed up all night to finish him for my match today and I can’t wait to use him
Yeeeeeees I've been waiting for this since, since, I don't know when the Silent King painting guide second part came out BUT SINCE THEN. Thank you for the upload, now i'll know what paint is still need to order.
Another winner! - little tip I use on the warp lightening is to do some selective edge hights on it with Flash Gitz yellow...it really gives it a nice pop of contrast against the stark tesseract glow color
At first I was really confused by the metallic priming, cos I don’t usually do it, but by the end of the video I was seriously doubting my methods😂 great video yet again with a brilliantly executed paint scheme. Keep it up
I had this guy and this video bookmarked for like a year. Been meaning to get around to painting him but didn't feel up to it. Then my nephew dared me by saying "I'll paint my old one eye if you paint your void dragon". Your video really helped. All the corax white was annoying but damn it looked good once the tesseract glow was added.
I appreciate your guide, I followed most of it, but I took my own creative freedoms when it came to the necron attachment he has. Being a Nihilakh fan, I used a gold look on his backpack, with blue wings. Again, appreciate the guide, you make this look easy!
Im glad you made this. I have a plan to paint mine and looks like you followed exactly what i planned on doing. I think im goint to add morenecron compound after the akhelian green on the body and maybe some thined down stormhost silver. also for the lightning im going to layer it more on top of the teseract glow with some warp lightning contrast. Still depating if i want to do the green for the tail and similar weapons with necrons or stick with silver and incorporate some green into them.
Another superb video sir! After finishing my very first set of grey knight paladins, and starting off shockingly after using my washes for the first time in a very haphazard way leaving my first guy a smeary blue mess 😃, I actually ended up finishing the other 4 guys rather well if I do say so myself! And that is down to your wet palette video mate, and thinning paints....I used these guys to pratice getting used to my vellejo game color set, I know now how to use them thanks to you! I am jumping straight into a bigger one and after watching this I am going to attempt this badboy!
@@ThePaintingCoach no sir thank you for your time showing us how to do this stuff comprehensively and properly! Ive found confidence is half of the battle and a steady hand. Make sure you take your time if in doubt is working so far for me....will let you know how I get on with this one.
i really like your videos and i get as much as good painintg tecniques, so i have a request for you, would you like to do a Typhus painting guide, as i can't manage to do a proper bone/green rotten style as death guard demand, really appreciated, keep up the good work
Thanks Lorenzo - I appreciate the feedback! I have a Typhus model here so I will try to vet round to him - I do have a how to paint Deathguard video also - in the green colours
Hello quick question, on the body section, chest area part, where it has kind of phase out section, did you apply corax white to those areas before adding the tesseract glow?. Could not quite tell in the video if so.
When I try to use nuln oil to define the muscle on my nightbringer, I found it became streaky and you could clearly see where it was applied and where it wasn't, how'd you get the transitions to be so smooth?
I’m tryna watch this and utilize the mixtures but I want all the green to be different shades of red instead, metallic black body with gold/ white accents 🤔 I’m new to WH and this is my first figure 😅 I also have the combat patrol necron set that I want to paint with the same color scheme in mind. Anyone have any advice?
hiya! fantastic guide! im currently painting my void dragon and following this guide, however im using the other head option. the only picture i can see for it has the gem part as a purple colour and i was hoping you could tell me how you would do this please?
Glad you like it - I'm not sure but recently I painted some purple glass - so paint it corax white, then cover it in luxion purple contrast paint. Add a second coat where you want some darker shades. Then mix in a bright white paint with the luxion purple and use this to highlight along the edges, adding more white paint for broghter highlights. Hope that helps!
@@ThePaintingCoach thought id pop back a few months later, i consistently get compliments on my void dragon during games with people walking up and admiring him! thanks again for the great guide!
With my necron army ive decided to use blues instead of greens and yellows. I have frost heart, thousand sons, asurmen blue, talassar blue, kantor blue and ahriman blue. Would you recommend any other blues or maybe some purples as purple is the opposite colour of yellow?
your Tesseract glow how much do you shake it before use, it just that ut seems sp much more yellow than the one i got, and i wonder if it becuace it not as shaken as my own Fantastic paintjob, copying several things for my own
At the beginning, did you airbrush that silver? and if so, can you give more details on the pressure and techniques to avoid spraying into his interior black body?
I'm still fairly new to the hobby, I sprayed my void dragon with chaos black like the whole modle. Am I okay to go back over it with a leadbelcher primer on the body and other silver spots or should I just paint it with leadbelcher?
That tends to be what I do- just make sure they are light coats - i wouldn't buy a can especially tho so if you have the pot od leadbelcher just put down anxouolenod thin layers
Hi Robert - I notmally use Winsor and Newton Series 7 brushes - currently trying out some Broken Toad brushes - i use an airbrush for priming if the weather is awful outside
Having the palette there for us to see seriously improves the quality of the videos, stunning result as always.
Cheers Ducky - been meaning to do it for a while so now it's there, glad it helps!
I think you’ve hit a special spot with your necron colors. They just pop in a really fun and interesting way. Been a joy watching you paint them up!
Cheers Kyle - I appreciate it!
Thank you, this video is immensely helpful. I've watched it 3 times and I feel confident enough now to tackle my own Void Dragon :)
Thanks Chad - really glad you liked it and appreciate you watching!

I’ve not long finished mine after watching the techniques here, it was a massive help on a daunting centrepiece model. Thank you!
Awesome glad it helped

Sounds cool - I was tempted to add more green to the glow - in the end I just went super bright!

Thanks Matthew - appreciate it!
Just found your videos, really enjoying it. I’d love to see your take on the nightbringer!
Thanks - glad you enjoy them! He isn't on my to do list, but check my belakor video - I would probably do him similar to the skin in that video
if you could do a painting guide for the newer keeper of secrets model i for one would be ecstatic.
I might get to it eventually - if i get my hands on the model!
@@ThePaintingCoach I can send you mine :)
Cracking job mate!
Cheers!
Beautiful

Honestly i cannot remember - however something tells me I did 🤔
When I try to use nuln oil to define the muscle on my nightbringer, I found it became streaky and you could clearly see where it was applied and where it wasn't, how'd you get the transitions to be so smooth?
You could try thinning it with some contrast medium 🤔
Or use a clean damp brush to smooth any transitions while it is still wet on the model
I’m tryna watch this and utilize the mixtures but I want all the green to be different shades of red instead, metallic black body with gold/ white accents 🤔 I’m new to WH and this is my first figure 😅 I also have the combat patrol necron set that I want to paint with the same color scheme in mind.

With my necron army ive decided to use blues instead of greens and yellows.
I have frost heart, thousand sons, asurmen blue, talassar blue, kantor blue and ahriman blue. Would you recommend any other blues or maybe some purples as purple is the opposite colour of yellow?
I think you are good - only potential I would suggest is Aethermatic Blue. Frostheart will do most of the lifting for you
if i don't have an airbrush, is it possible to apply the leadbelcher effectively with a brush?
Yes absolutely - I think I actually used the spray can version 🤫
Are you going to do the new monolith??
Probably not - the kit is really pricey!
@@ThePaintingCoach 3D printer go burrr😹👾
Will you make any tutorial to painting anvils of heldenhammer?
Hi Nicholas- maybe in the future - they are on my to do list I just don't know when
your Tesseract glow how much do you shake it before use, it just that ut seems sp much more yellow than the one i got, and i wonder if it becuace it not as shaken as my own
Fantastic paintjob, copying several things for my own
Thanks! I shake it for a good bit - mixing balls help - i find it bubbles are an issue so have to let it settle a bit
At the beginning, did you airbrush that silver? and if so, can you give more details on the pressure and techniques to avoid spraying into his interior black body?
Thanks for the comment - off the top of my head I just sprayed Leadbelcher over Chaos Black - both the canned versions from Games Workshop
I'm still fairly new to the hobby, I sprayed my void dragon with chaos black like the whole modle. Am I okay to go back over it with a leadbelcher primer on the body and other silver spots or should I just paint it with leadbelcher?
That tends to be what I do- just make sure they are light coats - i wouldn't buy a can especially tho so if you have the pot od leadbelcher just put down anxouolenod thin layers
Hi I love your video I want to ask I do not have the chrome paint what citadel paint replacement would you recommend?
Thanks Tyler! Storm host silver is the Citadel equivalent - hope that helps
@@ThePaintingCoach thank you very much I am using your paint method to do my void dragon
Awesome! Good luck!
What brushes do you use, also do you use an airbrush for priming?
Hi Robert - I notmally use Winsor and Newton Series 7 brushes - currently trying out some Broken Toad brushes - i use an airbrush for priming if the weather is awful outside
Doesn't matter how much I shake the tesseract glow, it dries really dark and matte. Any advice coach?
Oooh afraid not - I haven't come across that before 🤔
Hey, very cool painting! What blue did you use on the wings ?
I wish the Void Dragon looked more like a dragon; ie armor pieces with leaking energy in the shape of a dragon.
New sub :)
Much appreciated - thank you!
