I just came back to 3d printing... Looking at that print makes me want to sell my saturn... the mighty is worlds ahead! I don't see any aliasing at all... awesome job!
What I really struggle with is knowing where to highlight. I like seeing how you tackle it and where you put them. And now I need to find you varnish and try it out, he looks stunning when completed!
Keep taking the miniature in hand and pulling your arm away. What are you struggling to clearly see that you want to stand out, especially when it's not under intense light?
Awesome tutorial! I really liked the variety of paint brands you used so I could see how some new ones looked. I picked up the Vallejo steel after seeing how nice it looked here!
Thank you for launching your YT Channel and for bringing high quality painting techniques that are easy to replicate even for beginners. Keep up the good work !!
This is exactly what I've been looking for!! I've been trying to find the perfect bluish grey for krieg trench coats. Everywhere else I've looked they end up being way too blue. I picked up the ak paint you used. Great tutorial as well! You've got a new subscriber.
Great paint job, do you know where the backpacks came from? I have the base kit which doesn't seem to (unless i am blind) and can't see it any of the other kits.
@@col.festus Yeah big time! been subbed to them for just over two years now, very much worth it plusa great mix of things be it units, tanks or other big or small minis and they update older ones add to them every now and then as well :-)
Hi, what resin are you using? I’m having real trouble printing their pre-supported files, I’m using the same printer as you, I’ve slowed the lift speed, but there all coming off the supports during printing.
I love the guide! Do you know where you got the backpacks from? I am printing some Korpsmen out as I type this but I am definitely missing a bit of the WWI aesthetic without the rolls on their backs!
Two reasons. 1st - it adds some vibrancy to all the colors even if you matte it after 2nd and more important it gives a much harder protective coat for gaming with.
Oh also I am a huge fan of AKs paints they are brilliant quality at a very good price, pretty thin but very strong coverage be it with a paint brush or airbrush. The only ones I don't like a ton of are their metallic paints outside of a couple of them. But yeah AK are my go too paints for sure.
Lovely job on this figure. Very inpressive speed painting. I often find when i use ultra matte varnishes on metallic paints it suckka all the shine out of them, to the point where they look like a weird grey rather than a metallic effect. Is there some property of the vms which prevents this? I generally use ak ultra matte, which is great, but its absolute dead matte...
@@col.festus Currently printing at the default 0.05 so I might need to up my game. I've seen several requests for Universal Guard - looking forward to it!
Trying to replicate this for my Kill Team - all signs on earth point to French Blue being basically a grey paint, and not this pale actual blue, any chance for a link to the one you used?

Which Saturn do you have?
@@col.festus first one
Gorgeous, clean paint job. I was checking out these models, now I think I have to start the army.
Love this! Thanks for covering your scheme that I am 100% stealing. Keep up the great vids!
Thanks :)
I Remember seeing some of your work on twitter a while ago and absolutely loved them. Glad you started making content.
Cheers!
Awesome! Mine are still on the sprue after way too many months. Im going to bust them out tonight!
Cheers!!! Good luck!
What I really struggle with is knowing where to highlight. I like seeing how you tackle it and where you put them. And now I need to find you varnish and try it out, he looks stunning when completed!
Yeah! Eventually I just have a feel for where they go, but usually you highlight where you want the eye drawn, or when failing that the highest spots.

Killer video. It looks so crispy.
Cheers!
I've said it tons on Twitter, but man these are just amazing, I can only dream of getting even halfway as good. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers!!!
Well done..you did a great job..and now I know how ill paint my Valour Korps👍
Cheers!
Fantastic tutorial
Thanks!
Awesome tutorial! I really liked the variety of paint brands you used so I could see how some new ones looked. I picked up the Vallejo steel after seeing how nice it looked here!
One of my favs!

Love this great work, where did you get the back pack from? I have the STL’s but no back packs?
It’s from their patron on their discord server
@@col.festus Fantastic, you’re a superstar, it makes such a difference to the models, and your paint scheme is inspirational, thank you so much.
@@adiebland9220 Cheers!
You make it look so easy, really awesome !
Cheers!
I’d love to see you paint one of the new highland minis dwarves!
I’ll add it to the list :)
Great paint job, do you know where the backpacks came from? I have the base kit which doesn't seem to (unless i am blind) and can't see it any of the other kits.
Cheers! It’s from their patreon exclusives on their discord channel!
@@col.festus aah, ok! I was wondering the same thing ...
WUW!! makers cult I love those guys :--)
Me too! Great company and great artists!
@@col.festus Yeah big time! been subbed to them for just over two years now, very much worth it plusa great mix of things be it units, tanks or other big or small minis and they update older ones add to them every now and then as well :-)
I'd love to see a tutorial for your iron warriors, that cold steel look is amazing
Cheers!
Which black do you use for the rim of the base at the end, it seems super smooth!
It’s called Amsterdam Black Ink
Great job! What benefit does the first gloss varnish have though?
Adds protection for gaming
Great work, gonna paint my the same, big inspiration !
Question: where do you found the backpack? cant find it in the veteran files or anyway else ?!
Patreon exclusive
Great video and thank you for sharing! I was wondering, what is the reasoning behind using the gloss varnish before applying the matte varnish?
Indestructible paint job :) it makes it tough as nails for gaming.
@@col.festus Sweet! Thanks for the reply :)
Beautiful, any chance we might see a Univerial guard next?
Not sure about next but you will 100% see UG up here

Hi, what resin are you using? I’m having real trouble printing their pre-supported files, I’m using the same printer as you, I’ve slowed the lift speed, but there all coming off the supports during printing.
Increase your exposure time if the supports are failing.
I love the guide! Do you know where you got the backpacks from? I am printing some Korpsmen out as I type this but I am definitely missing a bit of the WWI aesthetic without the rolls on their backs!
I got them from the makers cult discord. For subscribers they have aftermarket backpacks in the links section for download.
Really cool paint job. Are the pre supports on their files any good ?
They’re the best, I use all their stuff presupported
@@col.festus awesome !
Good job. Subscribed!
Thanks!
Beautiful work!
Why the gloss varnish, just to matte varnish after?
Two reasons.
1st - it adds some vibrancy to all the colors even if you matte it after
2nd and more important it gives a much harder protective coat for gaming with.
Very nice color scheme !
How much time did you take for one model from start to finish ?
Pretty quick. Maybe an hour or so
Oh also I am a huge fan of AKs paints they are brilliant quality at a very good price, pretty thin but very strong coverage be it with a paint brush or airbrush. The only ones I don't like a ton of are their metallic paints outside of a couple of them. But yeah AK are my go too paints for sure.
I still stick with Vallejo for most of my metallics :)

I often find when i use ultra matte varnishes on metallic paints it suckka all the shine out of them, to the point where they look like a weird grey rather than a metallic effect. Is there some property of the vms which prevents this? I generally use ak ultra matte, which is great, but its absolute dead matte...
Yup! I dunno what it is but VMS matte is the
Bomb, reminds me of old school dullcoat
What layer height do you print at? Do you do any other prep work such as sanding? Thanks!
0.02, no sanding!
@@col.festus Currently printing at the default 0.05 so I might need to up my game. I've seen several requests for Universal Guard - looking forward to it!
@@edwardthomas4152 I will definitely be doing printing videos as some point
My dude this video quality is top notch! What camera do you use?
Also the paint job is stupendous
Thanks! It’s a Panasonic WXF-1
Hey man, what song is playing in the background? Seems like very melancholic violin blues
It is! It’s a stock moody strings from adobe rush :)
heh, unexpected@@col.festus
@@sinkt02 it felt right for the vibe of the model but kind of stuck as my go to background music :p
What kind of resin did you use?
4:1 mix of phrozen aqua 8k grey to phrozen onyx impact
Trying to replicate this for my Kill Team - all signs on earth point to French Blue being basically a grey paint, and not this pale actual blue, any chance for a link to the one you used?
The link for it is in the description of the video
@@col.festus I was 100% sure it's to the wrong paint since Hobby Color Converter and the linked show that as grey - thanks. AK11166?
just tried to use french blue for the first time and it definately comes out as grey i am a bit confused how col festus came out so blue
where do you get the backpack?
They’re from the makers cult patreon. They are in the misc files section only accessible to patrons
Have you tried the Daler Rowney India Ink? Do you still like the Amsterdamn over it?
I have not yet!
Could one use the VMS varnish with a brush ?
I believe it’s designed to be used with an airbrush, I have brushed it on in small areas without an issue
Where are the backpacks from as far as I know that kit doesn't come with any
Patreon exclusive. You can access them on their discord once you sign up
Why did you add the gloss varnish step and not go to matte varnish immediately?
I find it adds alittle richness to the colors and more importantly it make the model way more durable for playing games.
Hi one question, from which pack is backpack? On pictures in both pack (infantry and veteran) they have this smaller one.
It’s from the makers cult Patreon on discord. They have alternate bits
@@col.festus Thx. Sad, this backpack are much nicer then the smaller one.
Are the backpack also makers cult????
Yup Patreon exclusive!
@@col.festus(looks at the 30 I printed and painted) well fuck
love your stuff on twitter
the audio on the videos is a bit quiet, might just be my end tho
I’ll raise it up a bit next video, sounded good on headphones but I’ve gotten a few reports of it being on the quieter side
