This changed the way I paint forever...

  • Today I'll show you how to paint a Dark Angels Bladeguard in a Grimdark Deathwing bone armor scheme. Today this is considered a very traditional approach but back in the day when I stumbled over it, it really revolutionised my painting and how I think about application of paint, and storytelling with miniatures.

    Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh, my God. It even has Decal Transfers.

  • @tightning
    @tightning ปีที่แล้ว +266

    Love this take on Deathwing armour, and the statement about Grimdark being an aesthetic rather than a technique. Experimentation and utilising/discovering new techniques is part of the joy of the hobby for me.

    • @saltedllama2759
      @saltedllama2759 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Good points. A lot of things like NMM and dramatic lighting are also not techniques, but a result or effect. How we get there is a matter of experimentation followed by experience. :)

  • @richardhertz7345
    @richardhertz7345 ปีที่แล้ว +96

    This ended up being one of the best marine painting videos I've ever watched. The range of techniques, the way you mix paint, it's next level.

    @Ennio444 ปีที่แล้ว +175

    Damn, I don't want you to cut down the fluff of the video. The step by step, full process is what I love about this! It's how I really learn!
    Maybe have the "main video" short and sweet, and then post the longer ones in a separate channel? Call it Trovarion Deep Cuts or Trovarion Happy Hour, but please, post the longer form!

    • @2WARDEN2
      @2WARDEN2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Big ditto! There's so few long-form painting videos that really help me grow my technique. Having a shortcut with a verbalized description just isn't the same!

    • @trovarion

      when I say fluff I mean me being on camera or fancy filler shots, etc.

    Sorry to hear that TH-cam isn’t pushing your videos. There’s so much really interesting information and advice in your videos and I sincerely hope that you can continue to make them. All the best!

    • @trovarion
      @trovarion  ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Thanks! it is pushing most, but the painting videos usually underperform. I don't mean to sound like I blame youtube though, I think I know what the problem is and I just have to change things around a bit :) manly make the videos more precise/shorter for more engagement.

  • @ghengiscohen3858

    Love the battle damaged decals! When you first showed off the models, my initial reaction was "OMG, how did he achieve that look?!" You made it so simple, yet so effective

  • @wpb5876
    @wpb5876 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    What I love about this video (and a lot of your tutorials) is the end result looks absolutely amazing, and also the process looks very achievable and easy to follow. The ‘techniques’ are not overly complicated but I definitely wouldn’t have thought about it by myself
    Thanks as always!

  • @saltedllama2759
    @saltedllama2759 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Love the simple act of removing various trim pieces and sculpting a hood. Little things can make a big difference; our conversions don't always have to be super ambitious.

  • @tajj7
    @tajj7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    The shield looks amazing, you did so much with simple decals, it looks like the personal sigil of a medieval knight.

  • @DigitalOrigami
    @DigitalOrigami ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Love the shoulder pads. I’m not sure what it is but there’s something about that look that just hits. You’ve got me thinking about giving it a go. I will say I nearly had a heart attack when you took the knife to the shield, lol.
    This is the best Dark Angel mini I’ve ever seen.

  • @Mark.Matthews
    @Mark.Matthews ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Perfect look for a fallen/redeemed brother. I absolutely love this cloth look, need to try and replicate it with my blood angels vets.

    First time I encounter your channel, I see an extremely teaching video on painting deathwing armour, green cloth, decal chipping, basing, sculpting a hood, scratching shoulder pads and shield,...all. Very very good content.
    Couldn't understand the title yet, though.

    • @trovarion

      You got good content, the title made you click it. Both parties happy.

    Cool stuff. This grimdark stuff makes me imagine a chapter that's been somehow stranded on a really rough world for generations or a chapter down on it's luck but too prideful to give up and merge with some others.

    I'm trying to restart painting after 10 years. I'm not really into speed painting and have the mini just ready to play. It's nice that you show all those technics and explain what it adds and the result is just amazing.

    I often click on to videos but this is the one of the first videos I watched (along with your slapchop and your HH Ultramarine recently, both a similar style to this) the whole way through. For me if you keep adding in tutorials like this, along with the more in-depth/longer videos) I would watch more and that would act as a gateway to being more invested to watch to the longer more in depth vids.

    You are a true perfectionist.
    I was impressed how the red borders on the shield heraldry were freehand painted to such exacting alignment and perfect linearity.
    ...only next to be nearly completely obliterated by weathering effects.
    I appreciate the dedication to the weathering process of a version of what would have been a perfect in the showroom shield to the battleworn result, which felt like watching the process in rapid timelapse.

    Love this video, it's really engaging and I like this new style too. I always watch your videos all the way through, sometimes twice, but I understand having to play the game to the system. Fully agree that your usual grim dark style doesn't work well here too, but this was an epic adaption and I hope to see more grim dark space marines and other 40k factions from you soon! Thanks again for all your videos and effort.
