- In this Hobby Cheating Tutorial, I take you through a whole new color palette and way to paint and think about painting rocks, stone and other inorganic matter that is similar. Rocks can be so much fun to paint, because you can truly go nuts with colors. Throw out the greys and let's get into it.

A Vince tutorial on rocks... things you didn't know you really wanted until you saw the title.
Thought the exact same thing
“And art exists that one may recover the sensation of life; it exists to make one feel things, to make the stone stony.”
― Viktor Shklovsky, Art as Technique
I'm going to paint the patio in my back garden using this technique to make it look more realistic
😂
You may want to use a size 3. Helps with coverage.
Vince, you’re a rock star! This is a very gneiss tutorial on painting rocks and I don’t take it for granite.
….but seriously, this was a perfect!
No schist, Sherlock!
Without being cheeky...I can find 100 videos on NMM, but not many on painting rocks like this...and I LOVE it. This type of video may not do as well as others, but for me this is exactly why I'm subscribed.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'll never get over how amazing this miniature turned out.
I recently watched your video on goals for 2024, and you had mentioned that you performed worse in competitions than ever before. Watching your videos from the past year, it feels to me like you are stretching yourself outside your comfort zone more and more, really learning new and interesting techniques.
This reminds me of a professional golfer who decided that he had reached the pinnacle of his ability with his current swing. So, rather than allow himself to stagnate, he did the incredibly hard thing, and tore down the swing which had gotten him so far, undoing years of muscle memory, to try to learn a swing that could take him further. For a year or two, he under-performed in tournaments, and people thought he was washed up. Then, he came back even stronger and won more tournaments than ever before.
I guess I am trying to say that I am glad to see you stretching yourself, and looking for new and interesting ways to enjoy your hobby. It’s inspirational, and I hope you recognize how special that is.
I just had my mind blown watching paint dry on a rock!
I almost never comment but I love this sort of making the "simple" bread and butter things like rocks have more depth and interest!
Another banger from Hobby Cheating. Now we just need how to paint paper and scissors, and we can play some tabletop wargames!
Have you considered a geology class? I ask, because I think you'd have a TON of fun in one! In my painting circles, I'm the go-to person on how to paint rocks, because I'm the geologist. Geology is a lot about telling the story of the rock, which both you - an artist - and my former instructors have said! It is great to know *why* she is sitting on a dominantly gray stone, and *why* there is red weathering and green moss. The story of her throne's origin helps the story of her, by establishing her setting.
When I get to create my own course someday I may ask you to be a test-case student to see how I'm doing ;)
This video ROCKS!!! In more ways than one!
Ok, I'll show myself out now.
That bright pale mint green highlight really sparks the life into the stone/rock look. The subtle color contrast births so much life. Truly Hobby Cheating here. Simple ideas or techniques with massive impacts. I'll also use my flat brushing for something other than dry pigments from now on.
Thanks, Vince.
I could have used this a few weeks ago, I spent ages trying to figure out why my rock base on my last mini looked so fake! I think I independently discovered a lot of what you go over in this video by trial and error and it turned out OK but I could have saved myself a lot of time :P but seriously, thanks for another great video, I always enjoy them :)
This was amazing to witness. Each step I thought it was done and you kept pushing it further.
Vince, this is stunning! This looks better than the box art. The stone tutorial was right on time! Thank you!
Well, I thought I knew how to paint rocks until I watch this! You make me sick! This is about my fourth or fifth video of yours. I just got turned onto it last week. Absolutely awesome!
Glad I could help! and glad to have you along on the hobby journey! :)
Light placement is something I still struggle with, so this still seems like magic to me, you make it look so effortless... the Payne's Grey filter is just 🤌
Since I envision my Black Templars to be crusading against some rowdy Orks on a Jungle Planet/Secret Tomb World, I've been giving any rocks on my bases a deep burgundy tone (kinda like an unpolished ruby), and any dilapidated overgrown structures a punchy jade/turquoise shade (hearing you sing the praises of teal and magenta so many times might have something to do with that). Makes for a really nice change of pace from the typical slate grey or drab brown rubble as well, although those provide an easier base to play around with OSL and such...
I'm probably a fool for asking (instead of just looking up if you've already done something along these lines), but I'd love to see you tackle different types of stone, not just marble, but stuff like composite rocks (utilizing different finishes and so on), cooled magma/obsidian/river glass (emulating semi-translucency), sandstone, basalt, etc, and making it work/read properly in a miniature scale.
Love your stuff, always happy to see a new vid pop up, and to go back through the archives, keep em coming.
I always painted my rocks in shades of grey and applied greens and browns as a glaze where it seemed appropriate. I will definitly try pigments at some point, it looks amazing.
While I was very invested in the rock tutorial, I just could not get over how smooth that skin is. My eyes don't want to believe that it's paint.
This fig did have me wondering, though, how do you decide which part of the fig to paint first? I know the typical rule is inside->out, but I would have been way too nervous to do the rocks after spending so much time on the cloak and skin, even if I varnished her before I started on them. Is it a color-balance thing? Sticking to the in->out rule? Something else? If it's a complex answer, I'm sure it'd make a great HC video!
The stones on Vincey to produce such Rocky content!....(i'll see myself out) i"d argue these videos are the best videos.
Hi Vince. Great tutorial. Personally I think the community needs more tutorials on how to paint natural materials. What are we up to now, like 5 million tutorials on how to paint a space marine and like three tutorials on painting rocks? Good on you sir. About six months ago I painted a bunch of 3D printed rock outcrops for my game table and I wish I would have seen this video first. I did try to put some color variation in my rocks, but I used glazes and I'm not thrilled how they turned out. Never thought about using pigment like you did. Maybe I can go back and dust on some pigment still to get a more realistic look. Thanks for the video.
Great video! I've been frustrated by boring rocks - this was very helpful. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
100% will be incorporating this into making my TMM Silvers more interesting. With this TMM Silver will be fun again, instead of a boring chore.
Just what the doctor ordered. I’m painting a cave-dwelling Troggoth army at present. This will be amazing for the bases, but will probs use a hybrid of this for the rockguts themselves. Always good to experiment, and you provide me the tools to do so. You may say these vids aren’t the most popular, but for me they are invaluable. Thanks Vince ^_^
Just for you to know @vinceventurella, this vídeo was one of the most amazing eye opener videos when I started painting! I realise the power of hidden colors and shades. I talk to everyone about this revelation : "rocks are not grey" 🤯 I live in Paris and now when I go to a museum you can bet I'm looking at the rocks in the background.
As a geologist by training, rocks are cool and way more interesting than most people think.
Another great hobby cheating tutorial. Fantastic looking mini 👌
Absolutely great Vince, a really subtle effect on those rocks, time for me to test it out.
Leaving a Master Venturella vidéo when it has not even started?
Would not even dream of it😄
I really wish there were more guides for non grey rocks. As a geologist theres so many types of rock to base paint schemes on besides limestone, but i have no idea how to recreate them. I'd love to see one based on k feldspar based granite. That orangey pink with flecks of black and plenty of clear quartz that greys them down is so great
This is incredibly helpful! I was just thinking my rocks felt lifeless, and this helps me understand why!
I can tell this is one I'm going to watch multiple times. Really eye opening stuff
Brilliant video. More people should watch these types of videos - much more useful than watching another video about painting space marines.
Amazing…you always make it look so easy, especially as you clearly explain each step - including the “why” of the step and the video clearly shows the effectiveness of your suggestions. I’m inspired…..I’m inspired and going off to paint some rocks….thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
I don't think I'ver ever wanted to paint rocks as much as I do now Vince, great video, solid advice as always.
Thanks 👍
This is actually something I was looking into, my minis look good but the rocks aren't much more than a drybrush atm. Good timing lol
This is exactly the tutorial I was looking for! I've been trying to wrap my head around how to paint fun, realistic looking rocks/stone for a while now, thank you so much.
Glad I could help!
I enjoyed how you used some, finished, very sexy, miniature subject matter, to contrast the rocks which you were working on.... Kept my attention....
That's some stone turned up to 11. I actually can't wait to try this!
Very timely for me, as I'm getting ready to put together a rocky base :)
Great stuff, as always!
Glad I could help!
Thx again for doing this video Vince and a special thanks, that you dont let the clicks determish your content! Once again i learned A LOT!
My pleasure!
Great video Vince! Thanks for sharing.
I was just thinking of rock colour as I have been on holiday on the West coast of Tasmania. There, the rocks are red or pink quartzite, pure white quartz or green serpentine. Lots more fun then grey :)
This is going to change my rock painting game! Thank you again Vince!
That Model is gorgeous, and who better than Mr. Vince himself to work his magic on it. You are an inspiration my good sir.
Thank you so much 😀
Amazing piece. It really feels like a classic. Thanks for bringing us along the way!
This really is a trust the process kind of video. It did not look good at first, but the end result is very good
Great timing! I'm working on a Malifaux crew and will steal some of this for flagstone bases!
Rock, Rock, engagement rock. Love the video Vince can't wait to try this on my next model
That Paynes Gray layer was utterly ridiculous in the smooth transformation.
I'm glad I have a stock of Secret Weapon washes and pigments including that green but I never managed to pick up the Rubber paint I think I heard you say you liked quite a while ago. Shame what happened there.
As usual perfect timing. Was about to paint some rocks on an Aeon Trespass Miniature.
The thing I like about the flat brush, you can flip it sideways for quickly working some details. It's not as fine as a size 0, but it's good enough for the rough ugly phase.
Your rocks,......well, they rock!
Love the effect! Might copy the approach when I'll tackle my Grimaldus one day...
Thanks Vince! It's really great to see some more depth on a topic like this
My pleasure!
Thanks Vince. I was literally just about to sit down and paint my stone portal terrain.
Amazing... Simply amazing work Vince!! ^^
Thank you! I really enjoyed Thai and I appreciate the tips for something I’ve not really ever seen covered. I’m slowly finding my way for the figures themselves and would love more content around trees and other additional parts of the overall piece
Glad it was helpful!
Rocks need love too 😂.
I just sat down and was about to paint rocks and what not on my model. Boom your video appears and very informative!!
Glad I could help!
You make it look so simple, but with each step it looks more and more awesome. Thank you thatnwas very useful
My pleasure 😊
Tried it yesterday on a little diorama, works like a charm Vince thanks again :)
Great tutorial, Vincey. Love painting rocks. This figure turned out amazing!
Thanks Deno! Hope you're doing well brother.
Great miniature, and a worthwhile subject for tutorial
Don’t under estimate the impact of a beautifully paint rock 😊
The important things are always simple.
The simple things are always hard.
The easy way is mined.
Remember that and you'll live longer. Maybe only a turn or two, but longer...
Have not tried pigments to represent fine mossy texture yet. Will definitely give that a try.
have a model on my bench that I was wondering what the heck to do with the rock, did dark gray and dry brushed some light warm gray over it, which looks fine but was just so blah, so this is a great video, thank you for all the detail and explanations
Wow! Superb. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure 😊
I always find these types of videos important and a bit sentimental. Reminds me that I cut my teeth on DM Scotty and TheDMGInfo and that painting stone can always be improved upon from the basics learned when I first started out.
This is exactly the tutorial I needed today. Thank you! 😊
Absolutely loved this video. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I came for the tutorial, stayed for the "will he mess up the immaculate paint job". Great work!
This was actually very fun to watch!
One of your best pieces that I have seen - congrats Vince !
Great video Vince, thanks for putting it up...lot for me to implement into my work!
Thanks Vince - a very good tutorial as always!
My pleasure!
Thanks Vince. I need to get some pigments and loved the hue step as well.
Glad it was helpful!
This is great! Can't wait to try this!
Have fun!
Another quality vid, great job VINCE!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks! Great video. Now my rocks will be more lively. )
Rock on!
One of your best jobs lately, Vince. Really impressive result and perfect harmony in colors. Congrats!
Thank you so much 😀
Fantastic!
Beatiful work!
Thank you very much!
I am with you but…. I do care!! Great video!!I learned so much…saved and in the referenced can!!!
Beautiful
what a masterpiece!
This video rocks!
Did I hear a rock and stone? ⛏
Awesome tutorial!!!!
Glad you liked it!
You rock!
rocky start..... But definitely something I needed
Dominate the Paint!!
Great tutorial. I guess I need a flat brush.
I just like Vince he is good human here is engagement
Personally I prefer rocks over almost anything else. Rocks!
This comes in handy❤. I am trying a rocky terrain, but I struggle...
Great video! I'd have a question regarding painting interesting small round stones. It's easy for me to paint jagged stone, with loth of innate texture, but those damn small round ones are hard to make interesting. I've been applying different colors on one stone: Green, Purple, Black, Ice Yellow, in different proportions to make it look interesting, but not too much distracting. Can't get it right. Do you have any tips for those kind of stones?
Sure, so varying the value over the round shape is important, but also, adding the spotting texture. Those small round rocks are often full of stippled texture. Adding those little stipples, cracks and varyign the color as you describe can be a good tactic.
For rock and stone!
Fantastic tutorial and couldn't come at a better time! I just built a display base for an ork vehicle with a lot of rock. Will be painting it in the next few days and this was a great resource. Thanks Vince!
Glad it helped!
