He's awesome! And with only a handful of paints too! A minimalist approach can really work out at times. Druchii Violet is a seriously underrated paint. I've yet to find something that it doesn't look incredible with. It does simply beautiful things with metallics and really creates that alien look as there's no such thing as purple metal in our daily lives. Vashtorr looks more machines than man... Daemon... God-to-be... Whatever he is... The flesh looks like something that's barely holding him together and you're doing a great job selling that effect here.
I have loosely been following your painting method and just wanted to say a huge thank you for this tutorial and the paint list! Its my first time painting a big expensive model and your video gave me the confidence to actually get it done. After doing all the gold and bronze its starting to look amazing. Cant wait for the final results!
Fantastic job! Your videos always make painting so much less daunting for me! This is a model I would have never tackled without seeing your break it down nice and simply!
I'd say you've got yourself a new subscriber thank you, I'll tell you right now I can f****** paint LOL but I still picked up a couple tricks from this video looking forward to Future content
The only part of the hit that supposed to be metal it's just that most sharp creases there the flat part that looks like the crest of hip bone and it's the one metal piece but it is supposed to be kind of wrapped in flesh so it's almost more like a metallic highlight but the way you did it looks fine I believe
I would have to say the quickest way for those panels wouldn't be to paint all of it gold but paint the parts you want to be gold and not worry about what else it hits, then you've got less surface area to cover that's my opinion is there something I'm missing? Would that affect the end product?
so when you use a black primer first then leadbelcher did you do that just for the effect or does that help make it so that you can actually paint on top of leadbelcher? meaning I have sprayed things with only leadbelcher and that does not hold paint it's not a primer it's more like a repellent lol that mean it's not impossible but you got through the wash on it at least first or paint straight out of the pot
@@MediocreHobbies outstanding thank you!!! I actually went to the GW store and ask them about it and they told me just to paint straight out of the pot that that's the way leadbelcher was designed... I'm pretty sure that's a bunch of b*******
He looks stunning, I like how he seems to bring a look I've seen from old 40k art work a mix of body horror but cool design with how the skin and metal are fused and pulled. Your paint job definitely helped bring that to life :) how was his trim compared to other you've painted recently? Easier, harder, or relatively the same? Great video as always Andy :)
Definitely better than the one from the official Warhammer youtube channel, great job on this mini. I wanted to ask btw, does it have any hard to reach spots that would deserve sub assemblies?
Very well said! Always pick and what you like yourself for tutorials! I went with a colour that made this model tie in with the rest of my armies but it’s a easy point to switch colours!
This is an amazing video perfect for me as I just got gifted this box set to split with a friend so have to learn how to paint thank you for the guide
Anytime pal. Glad they helped.
That's seriously awesome
Cheers.
Finally got around to paint Vasthoor up. Thanks for a great tutorial
Awesome, glad to hear it helped!

Ye I am surprised with the result I got. It was a very fun model to paint.

Thats so great to hear pal. The reasons I make the videos.
Love this mini looking forward to paint it someday
It’s great fun to paint!
Fantastic job! Your videos always make painting so much less daunting for me! This is a model I would have never tackled without seeing your break it down nice and simply!
That’s great to read pal. Really hope it helps you get your hands on one.
A final light dry brush to highlight the black would have made this perfect for me but still looks great
Yeah you could definitely add that! Always pick and choose what you like from tutorials and add your own preferences! Thanks so much!
I hate you (aka envy ;) ) for being so good at making it look so easy :P GJ!!! Thanks !!!
Haha thank you…I think! Glad you liked it!
I've just assembled vashtorr last night going to make a start on him tonight, thanks for the tutorial
Good timing! Hope you enjoy, he’s easier than he looks!
Good job thanks
You’re very welcome, glad you liked it!
Awesome as always.
To kind.
I'd say you've got yourself a new subscriber thank you, I'll tell you right now I can f****** paint LOL but I still picked up a couple tricks from this video looking forward to Future content
Appreciate that pal.
Ottimo risultato 💪
🙌🙌🙌
Looks cool.
Thanks so much!
Great Work👍!
Thank you!
Hope that this mini going to be sold as single mini
It will be soon! This is just a special launch box!
@@MediocreHobbies thank you

Cheers yes it was confusing.
@@MediocreHobbies not nearly as confusing as my comment LOL sorry I got to start proofreading talk-to-text
How to paint alpha legion tank and dreadnought please bro
No airbrush
I have no plans for those at the moment.
I find it much better to paint the trim first and the flat parts of the armor after.
Ye some people do. And it depends how much trim is on the model I guess.
I would have to say the quickest way for those panels wouldn't be to paint all of it gold but paint the parts you want to be gold and not worry about what else it hits, then you've got less surface area to cover that's my opinion is there something I'm missing? Would that affect the end product?
Nope that mite indeed work as well.
how much did the silver spray over black look like metallic black in person once the Druchi violet wash dried?
Emm I guess a fair amount.
so when you use a black primer first then leadbelcher did you do that just for the effect or does that help make it so that you can actually paint on top of leadbelcher?
meaning I have sprayed things with only leadbelcher and that does not hold paint it's not a primer it's more like a repellent lol that mean it's not impossible but you got through the wash on it at least first or paint straight out of the pot
Yes the black and then silver gives it a nicer starting point and stops the hydrophobic thing from happening

Great video as always Andy :)
It was actually a fairly easy model to paint surprisingly enough.
Do you have a list of brushes that you use?
It’s 90% normal gamesworkshop brushes.
When are you doing the Slaanesh Daemon Prince?
It’s still on the list, just been super busy with new releases!
Definitely better than the one from the official Warhammer youtube channel, great job on this mini. I wanted to ask btw, does it have any hard to reach spots that would deserve sub assemblies?
That’s very kind pal. Thank you. Em you could leave the wings off that mite make some parts easier. But all in all I don’t have any problems.
Can we get some more middle earth videos?
Every Monday for the future!
Surely for the glow effects you should have used dark angels green contrast???
There's no "should" in painting! Colour choice is all preference.
Very well said! Always pick and what you like yourself for tutorials! I went with a colour that made this model tie in with the rest of my armies but it’s a easy point to switch colours!
