1:30 Verdaccio! Vince, TEN YEARS AGO a friend mentioned that her art school compatriot landed an insane gig painting the Norwegian royal family because they liked his method of undercoating flesh tones in green-I thought it was some mad scientist trick unique to this random kid. For the past decade, every time I’d see an oil portrait I’d be reminded of that little detail. You’ve put a name to it for me-thank you! And thank you for all that you do; your videos are a real tiramisu of technique, art theory, and encouraging philosophy. Thank you, sensei! 🙏
Dunno if I've missed it on videos in the past, but this is the first time I've heard this background music track and wanted to mention I really dig it. Good stuff, I'll enjoy it anytime it comes up in the rotation!
@@VinceVenturella oh, yes, I meant this track specifically. Your background music is always dynamite, but this one in particular just hit me as something great to groove to while painting.
Thank you! Zombicide 2 just arrived :) Will have to find "similar" colours to the ones you mentionned, because I don't have them, but thank you for this very informative video
I think the white balance was a little bit out on this video. Makes it a bit hard to see the colours during the painting. Love your videos though so I still really appreciate the tips!
Great accompaniment this morning while assembling a dragon. No local zombies yet, but some are ordered, and I’ll revisit this vid again. Always a pleasure 👍🏻
Everything you recommend sells out at my local shop, Vallejo metal color, inktense wood, there’s a couple other recommendations you made thatre always sold out too, just can’t remember off the top of my heAd, you should ask them for a commission
And I'm not even slightly jealous that your local shop is so well stocked! Actually, that's probably for the best, I'm supposed to be saving up right now.
The wood seems a bit green/yellow-ish. Is that just white balance? I've not been able to get my hands on any Inktense Wood, but I like using a 1:1 mix of Daler Rowney Sepia and Red Earth inks over a zenithal basecoat.
I love speed paint tutorials. I think people under value contrast paints, they are really good transforming a tedious job , aka painting dozens of zombies, into something gratifying. Will you try Scale75's Instant Colors?
Hi Vince! I’m thinking of adding a bunch of moss/grass/dirt to my zombies to do a bit of a risen from forest graves vibe. Should I add that before the priming step or paint them fully and then add it or something else? Having trouble figuring out sequence
I think you could do either, but I would probably do it beforehand. I would add the dirt and similar first, prime so you can paint, then maybe put a little grass on afterward and just hit that with a wash or something.
Seems like Trovarion has other opinions about speed painting. Could be a good topic for myth busting. If you could do some tutorials about comic style I would be very happy. There are a lot of different comic styles I've seen on miniatures but I couldn't grab the essentials. Could be more videos than one as there are different styles like cartoony, drawing, cell shading etc.
Yes, that would make a great Myth Busting episode. From my understanding of Trovarion's video, he criticized the constant urge to just paint fast, to cut corners so to speak. Like just doing the same "basecoating, wash of nuln oil and drybrush on top" over and over again. That will get a lot of minis painted quickly. But you will make very slow or no progress at becoming a better painter. I can understand the urge to "finish off" a bunch of minis, if they are dearly needed to actually enjoy a game. Like one's first army/warband or these boxed boardgame sets. But I think it is a missed opportunity to not try out new techniques and to have fun when painting the following purchases.
Yes, they have a UK printing facility actually, I know several other people ordered in the UK and didn't have an issue, so I'm not sure, but I would hit their CS, they respond pretty quickly.
@@VinceVenturella thank you very much for the reply, it was an issue with my address and how the site format works all sorted now. Cant wait to get playing. Also thanks for all the knowledge you continue to share about painting. Its helped me more than I can put into words.
Yeah, I also don't get what they've got tied to their backs? Cheers for the video Vince, I'm sure these techniques apply to rats as much as they do to zombies!
Great video as always but I have a but. (Man I sound like a douche) Thea white balance is so off during your videos that seeing the last shots on the turntable makes it fell like a totally different mini
Dear Vince, if you happen to see this I would like to make a marketing recommendation and ask for your advice about something. I bought "Reign in Hell" first day and am currently printing and painting models while waiting for the book to arrive. I bought "Cast & Play's" June release ironically and conveniently titled/themed the "Depths of Hell". Titan Forge also has a demon based release this month. These companies often sponsor TH-camrs and perhaps might be willing to work out some sort of tit for tat type of collaboration. You guys mention them, they mention you type thing. However, as both of those company's are also table top games perhaps they might be unwilling to help advertise what they could see as competition. I mention them due to the convenience of the demon centric releases they both put out this month. One of my personal favorites is "Loot Studios", which I'm almost certain would be willing to collaborate and help advertise "Reign in Hell" on their site if you guy's advertised their site/models on your channels. Recently, they did a sale on a past release for the original price of 15 dollars, as opposed to the marked up price of 30 dollars. Perhaps something similar could be worked out between you guys for their Demon themed models they released back in December titled "A Light in the Shadow". Idk, just a thought I had after buying "Reign in Hell" and then the "Depths of Hell" models to go with it. A lot of these 3d printable model companies could make for a mutual beneficial relationship if you guys reached out. As Warhammer is like a second profession for you, I would like to ask your advise regarding "Cursed City". The Sunday before last I found out that "Cursed City" became limited from a TH-cam video I happened across. Until then, I planned on picking one up at a later date,. After that video I panicked and bought the cheapest one I could find online. In total I paid $314 for the game. Monday I was able to find one locally for $179 + tax. Now clearly I overpaid for the one I got online, but I'm wondering if I should follow through with returning it. Isn't this like the kind of thing that will be worth a bunch of money in a year or two? Should I send it back and get my $314 back? Or, should I put it in my closet for a year or two and sell it on eBay for a lot more? Cursed City was literately my first ever Warhammer purchase, so I'm totally ignorant, and would greatly value your recommendation please and thank you.
My honest feeling, if you got the cheaper copy, I would either return the other one or sell it. I love the set, it's very worth having one, but I wouldn't pay that much for one.
@@VinceVenturella Yeah was hoping it was kind of thing thats price might increase in time, guess I'll bight the bullet and pay to have it shipped back. Mine as well have lit $25 dollars on fire, if only the game itself was good I might of made 25 bucks instead, but I guess time wont make it worth $314 + Tax + Shipping to someone a year from now either.

Ther eis always music, but this was the first time I tried these tracks. I will be varying it here and there going forward. :)
@@VinceVenturella oh, yes, I meant this track specifically. Your background music is always dynamite, but this one in particular just hit me as something great to groove to while painting.
Perfect timing. I just finished building and converting these guys!
Excellent. :)
Thank you! Zombicide 2 just arrived :) Will have to find "similar" colours to the ones you mentionned, because I don't have them, but thank you for this very informative video
Have fun! :)
I got this, too! I only have 16 zombies left to paint though - Vince was too late to save me D:
I think the white balance was a little bit out on this video. Makes it a bit hard to see the colours during the painting.
Love your videos though so I still really appreciate the tips!
Happy to help as always, and I'll watch the white balance.
Released right when I have to paint 40 zombies for my 1k Soulblight list, yes!!! What are these strange future sight powers you've been given?!?!
Awesome. :)
Great accompaniment this morning while assembling a dragon. No local zombies yet, but some are ordered, and I’ll revisit this vid again. Always a pleasure 👍🏻
Thank you, always happy to help. :)
I do know sir I purchased it 😁 As to the zombies that very useful thank you!
Awesome on both. :)
Excellent work, will be putting this to use this holiday weekend
Awesome. :)

Appreciated and glad you enjoyed. :)

I wanted it a bit green yellow, though this was a little bright. That being said, I think your ink combo is great and could certainly work. :)
Was expecting the plug haha. Great work as always.
Thank you. :)
Very handy. I need to get me some of that inktense wood!
It's a great ink. :)
I love speed paint tutorials. I think people under value contrast paints, they are really good transforming a tedious job , aka painting dozens of zombies, into something gratifying. Will you try Scale75's Instant Colors?
Eventually yes, I want to get around to giving them a try. :)
Hey Vince! Thanks for the great video! What could be a substitution for the Scale75 Inktense Wood? Not something I have on hand unfortunately.
Any sort of brown ink shoudl work without issue. I like Burnt Umber or sepia from FW inks as well.
I really like the wyldwood contrast paint as well
Hi Vince! I’m thinking of adding a bunch of moss/grass/dirt to my zombies to do a bit of a risen from forest graves vibe. Should I add that before the priming step or paint them fully and then add it or something else? Having trouble figuring out sequence

Very nice speedpaint Vince! There are some problems with white balancing tho
Yeah, I think in trying to get light under that still coffin on the back, I overexposed it.
Always enjoy your speed painting vids great work.
Thank you. :)
As always this was great, really no-nonsense and informative. What was the technique you mentioned for undershading regular skin? Use a green?
Correct, it's called Verdaccio, it basically means a green undercoat to lay pink flesh over, it makes it look more neutral and grey.
Cool tips, like All ways.
Have you tryed Liquitex ultra Matt medium ? If you have is it for any use.
And how Will you use it
I haven't really tried it, but it's basically just matte medium, you can use it as thinner quite effectively.
Seems like Trovarion has other opinions about speed painting. Could be a good topic for myth busting.

Yeah, that would be a great discussion, because we have very different takes on it. :) - Good discussion that.
What colors would I use for rattle can for your base steps
Well, anything similar would work, but a simple black and then an ivory from above or off-white would do the trick.
Awesome, Vince!
Thank you. :)
Great work as always sir!
Thank you! Cheers!
I like the trippy music in the background
Yep, trying some new music. :)
Looking good 👍
Thank you!
Hi vince just tried to buy the softcover in the UK, having some issues, is it shipping outside the US? Apologies for the public nature of my enquiry
Yes, they have a UK printing facility actually, I know several other people ordered in the UK and didn't have an issue, so I'm not sure, but I would hit their CS, they respond pretty quickly.

Thank you!
Yeah, I also don't get what they've got tied to their backs?
Cheers for the video Vince, I'm sure these techniques apply to rats as much as they do to zombies!
A bunch of grave stuff, it's just silly they all have it.
Good I was going to do this sooner or later
Happy to help. :)
Just bought the book.
Awesome!
👍🏻👍🏻
:)
I dont know if it is for me only but the colours of the video are way too whitish and I cant see the result correctly :(
It's not, I think it came out a little brighter than I wanted as I was trying to avoid a strong cast shadow from that tombstone.
Excellent video aside from it being slightly overexposed. Difficult to read the colours on screen.
Yeah, I;ll watch the light balance in the future.
TRIGGER SUCCESSFUL. Zombies can not run!!! No such thing as fast zombies! ; )
That was the goal. ;)
Great video as always but I have a but.
(Man I sound like a douche) Thea white balance is so off during your videos that seeing the last shots on the turntable makes it fell like a totally different mini
Fair, I think in trying to get light under the tombstone, I got a little too much light.

I am so disappointed. No one has made a painting the Zombies red to go fast joke.
Missed opportunity.
sadly colors are not that great in video
Understood, I will watch in the future.
So much direct light - can’t see your paintjob
I will watch that in the future. :)
If you’re reading this comment you should go like and comment to appease the almighty algorithm 👍🏼
Sorry mate, but your exposure is bad. Its almost impossible to see the colors.
Yes, in my attept to get light under the tombstone, I overexposed this, my apologies.
@@VinceVenturella Good to know that everyone makes mistakes from time to time :) Love your videos tho!
Damn.. I don't think I've ever been first to a youtube video before.. Oo
Edit: The video looks a bit overexposed =/
When you look at his hand, yes. But the miniature seems to be fine.
I'll watch it in the future. :)
