Here’s our discord link! discord.gg/vGGmYppvHq Thanks so much everyone for your support because thanks to you, this small channel is continuing to grow and we are having so much fun on the ride.
Heyyy thanks mate 😀 awesome when I open TH-cam and see your profile pic and a supportive comment every time. Now… next time you should catch me off guard by absolutely roasting me on the next video 🤣
Thank you mate! Yeah I’m glad I gave it a go. Nothing original by me BUT I’m excited to start trying out new techniques to hopefully grow as a painter.
@@flashingbadgerpainting You flatter me man. It's definitely a special experience, seeing my minis shown in your video. You've built a great thing here
Great video Mike! Commander Farsight came out looking AMAZING! The vibrant colours work so well! For it being your first time painting cell shaded / comic book style you have smashed it out of the park! For anyone who is considering joining the Discord painting comp, I highly recommend it! The community Mike has built on his Discord is incredibly supportive and we have a lot of fun cheering each other on, all while slaying our piles of grey plastic! Can’t wait to finish my entry for the October comp, and to start planning my December entry!
Oh wow! 😍 I bloody LOVE the cell shaded effect! Thats so cool! Normally I’d probably comment with some tedious in-joke or something, but I’ve not got anything this week - model blew my mind: it’s like looking directly at synth-wave music! Helluva grand job! 🫡
Great work as always Mike! I'm constantly impressed by your ability to highlight so well and the black edges really tied together that cool comic book look and reminds me of Borderlands haha. Also I love how you show off fans models! I've gotten back into painting after a hiatus and might have to submit something myself!
Omg yes join the discord and introduce yourself to everyone as the OG subscriber of the channel 😎 I’d love to check out what you are painting. Oh and thanks for the feedback on the model 🙌
No way man I was thinking about Jet Set Radio vibes for my Blood Angels as I just got into Warhammer and you literally released this video thank you so much man I appreciate this
Awesome timing 😀🙌 also welcome to the Warhammer hobby mate, that sounds like such a cool scheme for Blood Angels, I’ll be keen to see how you paint them 😎
Great video, bright colours are awesome. I am trying to paint my minis with fun bright colours, but it can be hard to step outside the comfort zone, and stand out doing your own thing. Kind of like wearing normal clothes and blending in vs dressing in something that makes people stare at you.
Ayyye hello mate! I was tempted to delay the video after you absolutely won the internet the other day with your underwater resin piece. That was so cool. I’ll try another diorama soon because you keep inspiring me. Nothing with that much resin though, I know to stay in my lane 🤣🙌
Watched!❤ You explain things so well. Maybe you could also consider teaching us how to thin paints on a wet palette. It looks like you add loads of paint, but then it drives perfectly. When I do that, it looks like gunk. As you can see by my requests, I need help with the fundamentals lol
Thanks mate. I’ll aim to talk a little more about some of these processes in upcoming videos. You’re also welcome to come and join our discord. In there we chat about painting tips and show one another what we are working on. The link will be in the video description 👍
Haha yep was so cool watching him flick through everyone’s entries from the mid year comp and he saw yours and was like “yes! Like this!” 🥳 Yeah he’s a machine. Soon you guys will catch on that I’m making him paint all the models when ‘my hands’ look a bit smaller in the videos 🤣
Then today this is the channel for you. Moving forward though, I’d like to introduce you to my buddy at Flashing Badger Aquariums. *cuts to me with a mustache in an aquarium shop*
This was less of a "how to" and more of a showcase. You didn't really teach or show any skills other than "follow your reference material" & "take the black lining slow* Production quality and final model were good though
Thanks for the feedback mate. Yep i discovered early on in this one that it was 3 straight forward steps. 1) base coat 2) add those panel highlights 3) black line. I didn’t think there was too much scope to talk people through what I was doing beyond the basics and not repeating it through fear of sounding condescending. Figured everyone would see what I was doing and otherwise just enjoy the ride. I’ll take it onboard though 👍

Excellent work great to see all the final models
Thank you mate 😀
That comic book painting style really suits Tau models. You did a great job as always. Thanks for sharing!
Heyyy thanks mate 😀 awesome when I open TH-cam and see your profile pic and a supportive comment every time.

Such fantastic job :) the comic book style seems to be making a comeback which is awesome. Great job

Looking great boss as always!
Thanks mate! Your BA squad came out great, was excited to show them off.

@@flashingbadgerpainting shhhhh you will shatter the illusion *insert magic illusion hand gestures here*
Hey, look it's that guy I met at PAX!
Ayyye! 😀
Oh wow! 😍 I bloody LOVE the cell shaded effect! Thats so cool!
Normally I’d probably comment with some tedious in-joke or something, but I’ve not got anything this week - model blew my mind: it’s like looking directly at synth-wave music! Helluva grand job! 🫡
Thank you dude 🤣 you have exactly 2 weeks to think of an in-joke for my next video 😎
@@flashingbadgerpainting 😂 oh, I’ve got ‘em, I just forgot them at the time 😎
@steveharrison76 🤣
I need to paint something in this style soon, it looks so good.
Absolutely! What model are you thinking? I’m half tempted to paint my necromunda gang like this
I mean, I have a knight that needs painting. Maybe, maybe.
Mate, the result is glorious ! As always, should I add, ^^ This is just great to see this ^^
Thank you so much mate 😀🤘
@@flashingbadgerpainting And I mean it ^^

Finished the video now lol, looks sick. Its also a kick in the butt to work on this months entry
Haha thanks mate and yep, strategically timed release for mid way through this comp!
Great video, bright colours are awesome. I am trying to paint my minis with fun bright colours, but it can be hard to step outside the comfort zone, and stand out doing your own thing. Kind of like wearing normal clothes and blending in vs dressing in something that makes people stare at you.
Thanks so much for the feedback 🙂 well in this video I went bright colours and bright clothes so I think we both have the right idea 🙌
It came out great! You nailed the comic book aesthetic!

AWESOME!
Hey thanks 😀🙌
Really cool style don’t know if I’ve seen one shaded like this before
Thanks mate 😀
I would lovd to see the Warp Spider Phoenix Lord in Spider-Man colours when it gets released.
Oh! Cool idea 🫣😎
Watched!❤

@ awesome. Thanks.
This almost makes me want to start tau....almost =p and I joined the discord, woo!
Woo! Welcome! Now let me jump across there and say welcome again 😅
Love the video you lads model is sick glad he took some inspiration from my winning models although he's showing me up already 😂
Haha yep was so cool watching him flick through everyone’s entries from the mid year comp and he saw yours and was like “yes! Like this!” 🥳
Yeah he’s a machine. Soon you guys will catch on that I’m making him paint all the models when ‘my hands’ look a bit smaller in the videos 🤣
Luv it! ❤
Thanks! 🙌
Can you do some imperial fists? Great job on the comic mecha lord! Reminds me of something that would fight Godzilla
So true! Sure thing, I’ll cover Imperial Fists. I have a few videos to tackle first but keep an eye out for it.
Great paint job
Hey thanks mate, appreciate the support 😀
That fresh dancing made the video!!!!
🤣🤘 filming that in dead silence was pretty funny
@@flashingbadgerpainting 😂😂😂😂😂
Bit late on the view, but hot damn the Farsight looks killer. And my Misha made it in, ill let her know shes famous now
Her agent can contact me for future appearances 😅
He is magnificent
Thank you mate 😀
Two of the best reasons to be Australian. Gap Games and Tim Tams :)
👏🏻🙌
Looks fantastic man, as far as what I'd ask for if I win, I'd ask for Gazskull for my nephew's ork army
Thanks mate! And great choice 😎
@@flashingbadgerpainting you're welcome
My submission for this month is almost done!
Woo! Looking forward to it
TIM TAAAAAAMSSS!!!!
Yeeeeeoooowww! 🙌
@flashingbadgerpainting I definitely should have had my Muscle Bois painted in comic book style. God I have so much regret
Hahaha how dare you! 🤣 no take-backsies
Is there any style you can’t do? I challenge you to Bauhaus
I'm still not liking the fish the paint job ain't bad at all my friend! And that comes from someone who has coloured a few things 🤣
Hahaha thank you mate. I promise, no more fish business for at least 6 months now 😉
You're early 😂
I get that kind of criticism at home, I don’t need it here as well 🤣
@@flashingbadgerpainting 😆 this is a no harassment zone 🚯
🤣
i like fish
Then today this is the channel for you.
Moving forward though, I’d like to introduce you to my buddy at Flashing Badger Aquariums.
*cuts to me with a mustache in an aquarium shop*
fuck yeah t'au s'uits!!!
I knew someone out there would be hanging for some mech suit business 😎🙌
So basically avoid using black as a paint color on the model. No black belts, no black boots, no black packs: pouchs, no black goggles.
Yep that was my take away. I’ve seen people flip it and use grey and white edge highlights over black which I think would look great as well.
An hour late, tsk tsk
This is a joke btw
🤣
😂
This was less of a "how to" and more of a showcase.
You didn't really teach or show any skills other than "follow your reference material" & "take the black lining slow*
Production quality and final model were good though
Thanks for the feedback mate. Yep i discovered early on in this one that it was 3 straight forward steps.
1) base coat
2) add those panel highlights
3) black line.
I didn’t think there was too much scope to talk people through what I was doing beyond the basics and not repeating it through fear of sounding condescending.
Figured everyone would see what I was doing and otherwise just enjoy the ride.
I’ll take it onboard though 👍
