I like how you painted the mauser rifle with the realistic factory blued steel instead of the usual bright stainless steel look you see most people paint on their WWII guns. great job on the guide
Pete, I beg you, please do an updated (non winter) Soviet Infantry tutorial. You’ve grown so much as a painter since that first one and I think if you picked the Soviets back up you’d have a much improved technique :)
Great video as always! I have a question though. Your brush seems loaded with paint when you apply your first thin layer. Is the colour diluted? If so, does the amount of paint still leave a smooth thin layer?
Yes and yes. Even with a heavy amount of paint on the brush, if it is thoroughly thinned it will dry smooth and not clog details. Additionally, AP paints are not very heavily pigmented as they have a higher binder content due to being cheaper paints so that makes them easier to thin and less prone to gunking
Hi Pete, thank you for this video. I will start Bolt Action and may take the germans. One questions i would like to ask, the "gras tufft". Where do you get that? I dont know these kind of tufft. Thx and keep doing such great videos.
How would you go about painting the field grey with citadel? I've tried mixing many paints including 50/50 dawnstone/castellan green, any advice? Thanks and great videos as always!
Dont forget about mechanicus standard grey which has a blue tint and administratum grey which is more of a pure grey. You can also try eshin grey as well if you still want the blue tint and think that mechanicus standard grey is too dark
With the new Stalingrad book coming out, how about a painting Hungarians guide? I could really use your input. Not a lot of tutorials on TH-cam for them.
I have most of the paints and I have the ink washes but I don't have army painter mixing medium..... I do have artist's loft brand matt medium and I also have flow aid can I just mix my matte medium with the washes or does the army paint mixing medium have flow aid in it too?
I have the exact same field gray paint as you. Even have the Vallejo equivalent. For some reason the paint always comes out way too dark gray compared to the nice greenish that you have. Is anyone else also experiencing this with their field grey paints?
I love your tutorials, could you please do one on Polish infantry? I’m looking to get into Bolt Action and have been painting Emperors Children and chaos deamons of slaanesh for waaaay to long and I would like some direction on a more realistic painting style.
Is there any reason I couldn't paint them up to match my late-war Grenadiers? Or vice versa? I've been considering this kit so that I can make some prone snipers and an MMG team.
@@jandoernte8970 Thankfully it's nearly impossible to see that on a prone model - and I'm the sort who will happily pack my stuff and walk away from a rivet counter. I can imagine those people don't get many games in. :)

As a historian and a fan of tabletop games like Warhammer Fantasy/40k even DnD this game seems like a fun thing to collect

great job on the guide
You are a gift to the WW2 miniature painting world, my man

Great to see bolt action on the channel! I would love to see how to paint winter russian greatcoats
Thank you MY GOOD MAN for these videos!
the "gas cape pouch" is that pouch on the figures front. the thing on the back is a bread bag.
Thank you i am starting my set today and using this as a guide
Very happy to see you working on Bolt Action tutorials again. Great job!
Hats off !! Glad you're back
Great to see you back with Bolt Action. Very helpful video👍
Very nice as usual, thanks. Good to see more Bolt Action.
Thx for the useful tut but there is one thing I don't understand...
Why didn't you fill these gigantic seam lines on the shoulders?
Really nice job on this!
THis was a great painting tutorial Pete! Thanks for sharing this. I liked the early war uniforms but I was not sure how to paint them.

Wow very nice

Can u do a Death Korp of Kreig with this color scheme in citadel paint?
It strange how "Field grey" differs between paint brands. The one I used, is more of a light green, than a grey.
What colour is the base coat Grey you used? Amazing videos, really inspiring and educational!
Sorry *Grey Primer* is what I meant to ask, which colour did you use in this video?
nice video! i was wondering if you could do a mordor troll tutorial, because i dont seem to find any decent on youtube. happy holidays!
Could you do this paint sceem on italian infantry
Please do a tutorial for death korps of krieg

The gas bag Cape on the chest ruins these figures for anything post 1940. If you're a "rivet counter".

Nice!
Could you pain imperial guardsmen?
Also the Emperor protects
🙌🏽🙌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
oh, and the bread bag should be brown. not grey.
