The main difference between Blanchitsu and the Grimdark style is essentially two things: While techniques and the reliance on oils/enamels and pigments applies to both, Blanchitsu, named after Warhammer artist John Blanche, usually also involves considerable conversion work as well as the limitation to a certain set of colours, in this case what is referred to as the Zorn palette, avoiding most blue/cool tones. Thus, you could say that Blanchitsu is a specialised subcategory of the Grimdark style.
I’ve tried a ton of different methods to paint Black Templars, but yours was the first one that made me truly proud of what I’d painted. Great tutorial!
@@SprayBlackStudios Thanks for the inspiration, I’m in the process of painting up my own Black Templars army 😃👍🏼 might have to make them a little more Grim Dark after this. 🤔
Very nice video out of all of the ones that I’ve watched on how to paint in this style, yours was the easiest to follow. The Raptors chapter would be cool to see done in the grim dark style.
I've been agonising for days if I wanted a clean black like how darren latham and Juan Hidalgo do it, then I saw this vid and was like "nah fuck it, we're going grimdark!" Cheers for the inspiration dude!
In my opinon speed paints can come out looking just as good if not better then using 40,000 differnt colors of differnt shades. I love this design I'm dusting off my templars now seeing as melee is making a stronger comback. Now that I have a much stronger income as well I can afford all the good conversion bits. Bookmarking this video for sure!
Thankyou! I definitely agree, if you are wanting realism then it's actually quite achievable with a speed paint job! This one was a really fun one to do and definitely wasn't too difficult! Good luck with your Templars!
Love it! A good idea maybe would be to include all the paints used in the description. You could earn money through affiliate links and we, the viewers, would have a better overview what colours we need to have/buy :-)
It's funny you should say that... I've just become an affiliate with the awesome guys over at Firestorm games so will definitely be doing this in the future!
Id love to see a sons of horus paint job in the grimdark style. But the old lighter colour not the teal they are now. Im thinking of doing this for a chaos army
That's a really interesting idea! The Sons of Horus colour scheme works really well for a heavily battle damaged so adding some more of these weathering steps may work even better. I've got another video coming out shortly that involves the use of Weathering pigments which could be perfect for the Sons of Horus.....
Hello just came across this and love the technique. I’m going to give this a go as I’m painting a combat patrol box. Could I use this same technique for the impulsor?
Grimdark yellow will involve a fair bit of Contrast, nice deep shadows probably with a nice hint of brown in them. A whole lot of dirt as well! I'd definitely consider the Lamenters, traditionally they are very bright so could be interesting!
@@SprayBlackStudios if you were looking to paint less well known astartes the Doom Warriors and Marauders are two more all yellow successor chapters, while the Emperor's Scythes and Marines Malevolent combine black and yellow.
Since I have 40 DeathWing to paint for a Super Major in a few weeks I am definitely "borrowing" your tutorial style. I am painting them up as 30K era armor to stand out a bit from other DA armies. Thanks for the tips. BTW. How about a tutorial on grimdark Carcharadons?
Oh steal away! I have a video planned for 30k Dark Angels but it keeps being pushed back due to other things cropping up. I'd love to see the Deathwing when you are done, feel free to tag me over on instagram! As for Grimdark Space Sharks...... It has been requested and I am looking to get the right mini to really show it off right!
This model looks awesome, I've been trying to get an effect like this for my successor chapter for ages and nothing has been working how I want it to. Going to try following your technique now, any tips for making it a more dark grey tone instead of black? I was thinking about just trying less coats of nuln oil after the grey drybrushes, or if I should be using slightly lighter greys for each drybrushing step, or a heavier drybrush of the lighter colours. Cheers for the awesome video
All of the options you have mentioned would likely work but personally I'd probably combine a slightly lower number of coats of Nuln Oil with pushing the highlights just a little bit higher. You still want to get all that depth of tones in there, especially if you want it to read as grey. I'd love to see what you come up with! 👍
@@SprayBlackStudios thanks a lot for taking the time to answer I only saw afterwards that you already had in another comment. Will try to have a go at it in the coming days ! Hope I can get a similar result!
Hey man, another awesome video. Can't wait to paint a batch of these. I was wondering where you get the jewelry chain from? I'd like to put some on my Flesh Tearers but don't know what size I need or where to get it from! 🤔
Thanks bud! The jewellers chain was from a company called Gale Force 9 but purchased from Element Games. I think this one was 2mm but they do a range of sizes 👍
Wow youre incredibley talented... I've been thinking about getting back into the hobby after about 20 years as my kids are now starting to become interested. This has inspired me start a black templer army, quick questions are the upgrade kits usable with the new primaris models? And what would you consider the most important paints to pick up to start with?
Thanks! Glad to hear you are getting back in to the hobby! A lot of the pieces of the upgrade bits are usable with the Primaris minis, if you get the multipart Primaris models as opposed to the easy to build ones you can easily use things like the heads and shoulder pads. Most arms are usable but the primaris bodies are a tiny bit wider so if you have two hands holding the same thing (like a bolter) it can require some work to get them to fit.
Am glad to hear you say that Bro , for a min I thought you was gonna whimp out , Looking forward to it, (oh ,btw , I am starting a squad of Griffons my self , just a fyi there ), :-) .
Looking to paint some black armored space marines and might try this method. Btw, out of curiosity what camera do you use to film painting and how do you have it set up.
Thanks bud! The freehand was a little rushed but came out alright! No thinning on the washes, just laying them right on! Gotta be careful not to let them pool too much though.
hello beautiful video, I'm Italian and I don't understand all the colors well, but would it be possible to have the list of colors and the percentage of color between contrast and tinner? thank you so much
Thankyou! I can provide a list of the colours but I'm afraid I don't record percentages in mixes with thinner as I tend to mostly go by feel. It always depends on which paint, which colour etc. The paints I have used are: Citadel Eshin Grey Citadel Dawnstone Citadel Celestra Grey Citadel Drakenhof Nightshade Citadel Agrax Earthshade Citadel Nuln Oil Citadel Leadbelcher Citadel Dryad Bark Citadel Rakarth Flesh Citadel Pallid Wych Flesh Citadel Gal Vorbak Citadel Khorne Red Citadel Rhinox Hide Citadel Steel Legion Drab Citadel Corvus black Citadel Zandri Dust AK Interactive Streaking Grime Vallejo Hexed Lichen Vallejo Warlord Purple Vallejo Squid Pink Quite a few!
A red wash would definitely give a warmer feel but personally I would probably lean more towards browns rather than reds. Something like Agrax Earthshade or even Seraphim Sepia would do a similar job but give you more of a warmer shadow
I’m currently following this tutorial and I’m extremely happy with it so far. When using the streaking grime from AK Interactive, is the white spirit combined with it only so that it will feed through airgun more fluidly? Or should I also use it with white spirit when using a brush?
I use the White Spirit just so it will go through an airbrush easier and so that I can slowly build up the effect rather than just applying too much at one time. If you are using with a brush it is up to you but generally people will use it straight from the pot 👍
Would not it be better if you shaded with blue wash after nuln and agrax so in the end the bue shadow remains a bit? cuz if you wash first with blue and in the end with the black does not the black cover all of the blue?
You definitely can, though you will end up with a bit of a different look to it. By washing the blue first it means you'll get a bit less blue in the Highlights (which I don't really want) as the Nuln oil will dull it down. If you go afterwards then the blue tint will be stronger rather than weaker. Nuln oil is actually a fairly weak wash so something like Drakenhof does still come through although I don't really want it to be too strong. If you were to wash the blue afterwards and then maybe do a very light drybrush of Grey then that may still give the desired result.
Hey do you have any tutorials on how to make vehicles consistent with grimdark models? I’m going to try my templars like this and I need their impulsor to be close to looking like them.
Hey bud, I used some Gale Force 9 jewellers chain. There are a few companies who do similar which can be found through sites like Element games or loads on ebay
The one that I used for this mini was made by Gale Force 9 and is their 1.5mm Iron Chain. I believe that I got it on Element games but quite a few places in the UK stock the Gale Force 9 stuff
haha steal away! the basing was done using cork sheet and the astrogranite debris by GW. Then painted black with grey drybrushed highlights added, nothing too difficult!
Kinda, Grimdark is a style and Blanchitsu is almost a subsect of the style. Blanchitsu is a much more limited colour palette and slightly different "feel" to it.
You would likely need to change techniques a little but could keep with the same colour palette and let the weathering effects do the hard work for you.
Hi Lou, if it's too shiny then normally it just needs a really good shake! You can either apply a coat of matte varnish or if you give the nuln oil a really good shake then apply a very thin coat that can take some of the lustre away 👍
@@SprayBlackStudios That worked! thank you. i did a test run on five guys. They came out pretty good, just need my streaking grime and spirits to show up in the mail. Also have to do a stronger dry brush
To be honest I will rarely go "Full blanchitsu" for this reason, I personally like to keep more of a realism in my models and that means using some colder colours too rather than just the browns and reds he uses.
@@SprayBlackStudios Maybe, but ignorance is also a possibility. A black cross on a white field is pretty iconic as the symbol of the Teutonic order (though yellow was incorporated later). Its a red cross on a white field for the Templars. They could still be called the "Black Templars" because of their armour being black if they used a red cross. I mean its no big deal either way. Just something I always found odd. Though I think if I ever did a Black Templar army, I would go with red crosses on white surcoats and the sergeants would have red crosses on black surcoats. Just like real life Templars had. Just for the fun of it though.
Thanks for watching guys!
