"This isn't a complicated paint job."
Proceeds to paint the most bad-ass gargantuan red dragon on the planet.
not gonna bother doing anything too complex to the underside of the wings he said while proceeding to make the underside look fenomenal
You're like the Bob Ross of miniature painting. I really look forward to your videos and this one was no exception. Great job!
I've seen this type of comment on every miniature painting channel I watch. Im not saying he isnt like bob ross, its just an observation
brilliant paint work
Hey Gundam! Love your vids! Keep up the good work!
the blueish-purplish hue to the feet made me think of ash and soot that had gotten stuck as the dragon has walked around.
Love the use of colors
I love this miniature because it’s one that you can hear in your head by just looking at it and the way you painted it does it incredible justice.
Wow. Awesome job. I just started painting miniatures in the last 6 months and I apparently have a long way to go. Just printed a mini dragon and found this video. Wow. Sub'd and liked.
I love watching these but damn if I don't feel so incompetent after watching.
I love how you do things. It totally makes me rethink how I paint my own minis.
Looks amazing. I really like the introduction of the stormy blue.
Great call with the blue. Really adds a pop to the figure. Amazing work
Awesome job, as usual. You never disappoint.
Thanks for giving me some confidence towards tackling larger models.
Definitely info to use on an upcoming Kickstarter delivery. Oversized winged monsters will benefit from here on out
spikes and seam lines, baby
Amazing result. Very inspiring. Thx for sharing
What an awesome job......what a fantastic paint job...amazing
I think with some kitbashing the stark contrast between scales on the tale could be mitigated with some spare tyranid bits or some greenstuff sculpting.
I love Dragon Models and this one look absolute cool :-)
That red with the purple looks amazing. Loving this.
It looks fantastic, I am also impressed by the speed of your brush work. You really go for it stabbing at the model but it works brilliantly. It's something I could learn from as I am a painfully slow painter.
Holy moly this came out great.
Looks pretty nice!
Perfect timing too.... I'm just getting ready to paint my massive Reaper Ma'al Drakar model. This info will come in handy!
The drybrush post airbrush blend was helpful, thank you!
Thanks for the video. I got this dragon a few weeks ago. i didn't really do more than just a base coat, wash, and dry-brush... i couldn't think of what else i could do, because of the sculpt. Your video has given me some inspiration, so i have go back over my model with some of what you did.
Excellent timing! Just a few days ago I looked up your channel, to see if you had made a new video recently. You’ve delivered the inspiration I needed to paint the dragons in my backlog!
Brilliant just brilliant
I wasn't to sure of the color choices until I saw the end result...awesome!
Great video! Keep up the good work, love watching them.
Beautiful!
Looks amazing... pfft simple paint job LOL, seriously great job!
Great video man and very easy to follow with the overlay of info (paint names etc). Keep up the great work.
Looks amazing!
Truly awesome work looks stunning mate thanks for sharing as always
Really nice! Stunning paintjob, but within reach with some practice and thus a great inspiration. Well done with the details available and good colors. I'll check out your other work, thanks.
just bought myself one! Great work, I’ve watched so many of your videos and hardly if ever commented, but I want to say how great the vids are and as a painter I love watching them and seeing your work. Can’t wait to paint my dragon now. 😎
Probably the first time Ive caught a video when under a thousand views. Glad it was one your vids.
He looks incredible! Cant wait to buy me one and paint it
Your work is amazing!! Your way of showing us is easy to follow to. Thank you..
Awesome...
Awesome paint job
Amazing. I'm going to try and replicate this technique when I come to painting my Valyndra from Descent.
Super nice
Nice been putting this guy back on the shelf half done for months.
I'm at spikes and tail fins/plates. Just kinda ran out of ideas. But you have inspired me sir.
Excellent job. Think it looks great
Love it!
Great work. Thanks for the inspiration over the years to give it TH-cam a try myself :)
Beautiful job!
Looks great! I had the same sculp issues with Wizkids Gargantuan White dragon. Got frustrated with trying to clean the model up, finally said screw it and started painting.
I like how the Snow troopers are guarding the Dragon with an E-Web Canon whilst getting airbrushed :-D
Wicked paint
Old spray paint lids make excellent painter stands
I bought this one a few months ago a made a black dragon with it. I wish I had an air brush because those back spike are really hard to get good coverage. I love what you've done with this one.
Brutal! Very cool mate!
beautiful
This is so awesome! I'd love to design a and make dragon like this on my channel to go with my other dragons! Keep up the awesome work!
One of the coolest looking reds that I've seen yet. I really like how your color schemes reflect a more realistic vision of how the dragon would look.
Good paintin'
This is really helpful, I have used some tips for painting some of my crafted dragons :)
I should get a airbrush.
Once you finally own an airbrush you start to realize how even an amateur (not saying you’re an amateur) can learn to make good looking models..and you will improve over time. It really is a good investment and a ton of fun too.
MY MAN
I’d love to see your paint jobs on some of the sculpts from the dragon trappers lodge.
This makes me want a dragon
I know that owning a dragon sounds cool and all, but they sharpen their claws on couch, gnaw on the furniture, and refuse to use the litter box. They really do take a certain kind of owner.
dang this good
Great video, will you be painting any other gargantuan dragons? I'm particularly interested in seeing a black or green (other than Narthrax)!
so fare so good and turn out god see as post
You should check out the Windstone Paint-your-owns figures. They are pricey but beautiful and I would love to see you paint some.
Could you please tell more about your airbrush. I'm using RichPen and I cant fight problem with small dots flying from it sometimes, I can't make flow thin as it could be... I use Vallejo colors with original thinner in different proportions, but it helps a little...
I'm just getting started on this model. Thanks for sharing this video. Just curios as to how long it took you to actually complete this model.
I havea Medium fire elemental from deep cuts. My question is, what color should I use to base it? I want to use a yellow/orange/black color scheme with yellow as the primary feature an black used sparingly around the tips. I would love it if you did a video on it.
i am working on my own dragon figure right now
Aside from the strange wings and out of place tail, that's an awesome mini! When you base larger models like this one, do you use any of the Vallejo texture pastes or use traditional flocking techniques?
Nothing special. Just bark, wall spackle and sand.
Daenerys would be proud of you.
Did you kit come with the built up base, mine did not? Just a flat plain plastic base. If you made that I would be interested in your technique; video maybe?
Excellent job BTW!!!
I built the base out of cork and spackle.
You certainly made a silk purse out of that. Lovely scheme, great colour choices. You say it was time consuming, what would your guess be from start to finish please?
I'm not good a tracking time. Less than 10 hours over the course of a few weeks, best guess.
Thank you. I know it is hard to gauge. I've recently been noting the time when I'm painting. It's a lot more than I would have guessed!
Wow nice! Is there a tutorial on how to do the base?
Also, where do you store all these miniatures you painted?
Maybe? I've done a lot of videos and forget. It's just bark, spackle and sand. They go in the display cabinet I built. Or get blown up in the driveway with firecrackers.
@@ThePaintingClinic you blow them up? :( you could do giveaways or even sell them.
Gorgeous ! Though i’m not a big fan of the « anime » style spikes/hair
Geez at 9:52 someone screams bloody murder in the background
Next door kids screaming in the pool. Had to redo some of the audio because of them. Guess I missed one.
I thought it was outside my home, it sounded to close!
Theely I did too lol. It wasn’t until I played it back I realized it was the video lol
"A big ball of spikes and seamlines." Yikes! That doesn't sound enjoyable to clean up. Haha! You did a wonderful job.
How do you keep your brush tips from getting seperations in them? Also, how do you fix or deal with stray bristles on your brushes?
Cleaning them with brush cleaner regularly helps, but they will eventually split. Loose strays get trimmed off with clippers or a knife.
@@ThePaintingClinic Thanks for the advice
Fantastic job! I'm getting a few paints to try this myself...@6:40 is that really GC Earth? Looks much lighter than Earth I think...? Desert Yellow perhaps? Thanks!
It could of faded over time perhaps or it's the color on the camera, but it is Earth.
Thanks for the reply. I'm looking forward to painting this fella
Killer job! I do have a question, where did you/do you buy your bases from?
The craft store. They are plain pine bases.
Doctor Faust's Painting Clinic awesome thank you!
Just started in the D&D miniatures. Do you recommend washing them first, then a real primer?
Yes to both.
What kind of airbrush booth do you have? I need to airbrush in my apartment and don't have a very good area where I can stick a hose out of a window...
Search Amazon or Ebay for portable or small airbrush booth. You'll find dozens selling the same model.
All the spikes wouldn't bother me if the wings weren't flopped around such a big part of it and very in the way...
What's with the stick in the base?
I think the belly should have been done in metallic gold like Smaug
lol at the "Big ball of spikes and seem lines". its plastic at least, no? I gave up cleaning seem lines on my reaper fire giant. so much more difficult then plastic.
Is this painted model available for purchase?
Do you use blick Master series kolinsky brushes?
No. This one was mostly with Princeton 4050r brushes.
I might pick this dragon up as proxy for smaug because I refuse to spend $500 on crappy resin from gw
Just as a note, the dragon you're painting is the Pathfinder red dragon rather than the standard D&D one...
I have a question DR. Faust: do you Play D&D your self, and if so, do u use these minis in ur games?
I don't play.
Can someone make something clear for me? When two colors are displayed at the same time that means he is using a mix of then correct?
Yes.
Do you do commissions?
I don't have a air brush ,so I painted mine by hand.
His horns remind me of hedgehog quills.
Would you recommend stripping d&d miniatures of their original primer?
If it's too thick, yes.
I really adored this mini until I noticed the wings are two different sizes XD
One wing is just more extended than the other, that’s the only difference. It doesn’t make the mini symmetrical, but sometimes that’s a good thing.
@@ANinjaSpartan oh no I own the miniature, the actual "fingers" of one wing are even longer. Which anatomically doesnt make much sense haha. Not to mention the way the arms bend to make the pose is a bit wonky aswell altho Ill let that one fly. but yea its not a super bad thing, but it does make the dragon look really weird from certain angles and certainly would upset anyone with OCD
I CAN USE EVERY OUNCE OF YOUR RAGE! ATATATATATATA!
May I ask what air brush you use?
Iwata HP-CS.
@@ThePaintingClinic Thanks
Body is nice but the wings don't look right. One appears to be bigger than the other. Great paint job though, as always.
Yo whats that noise 9:52 creepy.
To me there should be much less brown and gold colours on a DnD red dragon, especially the very light tips on the brown spikes is just too much. I like the end result a lot but I don't think it's very fitting for a red dragon from DnD.
