Void knights
Successors of: imperial fists
The void knights are known for their humble beginnings as a small chapter of imperial fists who would paint their armor with extremely thick coats. They have since matured into a Noble chapter famous for using two thin fortifications instead of one thick one while creating barricades for the battle field
Nice
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA hello Duncan you beauty 👋
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA lord Duncan drill your barrels hahahaah
That’s a solid battle strategy. Two slightly weaker forts, one tanks the main assault, while the second acts as a fallback position and/or fire support.
actually, id have a cool rule for paint coats: if the paint is thick, add +1 to the save number of the mini but remove +2 movement.
thought of it just now
Duncan: It is inevitable that you will make a mistake...
Duncan: *purposefully makes a mistake to seem relatable*
there are no mistakes just cheeky little highlights
@@Slenkamure apart from... one thick coat
11 year old Duncan was surprisingly good at making color schemes.
Rad name, 11 year old Duncan had good taste.
Thank you
White and black on a "void Knight", makes me think of hollow Knight
Confirmed, Duncan can see into the future
When I was younger I had made my own type of space marines and called them the Mithril Maelstroms lmao
10 year old me had the ‘aether eternals’
Duncan is the Bob Ross of mini-painting. I could listen to him painting for days.
I think he needs to show us how to paint some happy little wargame scenery trees to complete the image.

Dear Duncan,
We need your full army spotlight!
Regards, Everyone.
I came to say this. I wanna see the void nights in all their glory!
Yes! We must to see all of them!
I'm so early that Erebus hasn't ruined everything yet.
Nice 😂
That’s until the Pantheon turn up back in time to the point you wrote that comment on youtube

It is really good to see how you have become better with the years and really inspiring.
Sometimes I see my own minis and think they aren't great but then I watch a video like this and gives me hope that I can get better until they look really good.
Everyone has to start somewhere, just keep practicing, learn from your mistakes, never give up and mainly. just enjoy it, enjoy the process. 😊
I'm there with you on that one, I feel the same way! I'm not nearly the maestro that Overlord Duncan is, but it's because of watching his videos in part (other than just sitting down and doing it often) that my painting has improved markedly over the last couple years in particular. He rocks, eh?
@@MaskedRiderChris he definitely rocks. It really amazes me how he starts with just a bit of grey plastic and comes up with beautiful minis to the point that it is a bit incredible that they can end up looking like that but watching his process through this videos and the old community ones is enlightening because that way we can follow him and get something similar if not exactly right for now. So let's keep practicing, watching and following in hopes that we can be as good as him or almost as good at least ;)
Don't worry man, painting is a skill. Practice, practice, practice and you'll be good too.
If you are feeling a bit bad about your skills, just pick up one of your first miniatures and compare to a recent one. The difference will be night and day, and you will fulfilled and proud of yourself.
Chapter Master Rhodes, glory be unto his brush!
I love the fact that you can't help that wry smile whenever you say "Two thin coats" ...
11yr old me had the Cyber Sharks, a crusade force of several chapters, they became stranded on a remote planet.
With no hope of rescue all the marines integrated with the small human colony, becoming farmers , miners and fishermen, many years later they returned to conflict when a battle between Blood angels and Eldar crashed on to the surface of their world.
So the Marines left their families taking their sons as to form up the scouts (yes 11yr old me tore up the lore book like a rebel)
using all the salvaged armour and tech to form a new New Chapter they all had grey and black camo shoulder pads and a mix of chapter armour colours. They even created a Hybrid of Eldar and Terminator armour that worked and looked a lot like Gravis, atleast in my head (a genius before my time, Cawl stole my work) Though sticking terminator arms on eldar models isnt really the greatest looking thing....
I was happy for a year or so, until my friend Mr.C explained Space marines couldn't make babies with humans and how crap my paint scheme actually looked so i swapped them for his 2nd Ed plastic orks, they go re-sprayed into his Blood angels.
on my 13th birthday i joined the Dark Angels, 10years later 9 of the Repainted Cyber sharks and a Blood angel SGT returned to my collection as Mr.C needed drinking money and i started blood angels.
that’s actually an awesome chapter backstory.
“He has chevrons because 11 year old me thought they looked awesome”
No arguments here
Wait Perturabo stole 11 year old Duncan's idea!
Doesn't plan an Iron Warriors army and call the Preator Duncan Rhodes
I honestly really like Duncan bringing up the fact that mistakes are pretty much unavoidable, but they can be fixed or worked around. It certainly makes me feel better about messing up!
I'm impressed that the old mini actually had some thought put into it. My first space marines were all olive green and black, because I thought they were just space army guys. I had no clue about different chapters and couldn't fathom why you might want to paint any of them red, or bright blue or whatever. When I learned a little more about 40k my favorite chapter became the Dark Angels, simply because I thought they were dressed the most sensibly.
With that kind of introduction, I'm sure you'd get a kick out of the Raptors chapter.
Hahaha! I was exactly the same! People kept saying to me “all the other Warhammer models are so colorful, you should make them colorful” ...so I gave my olive green dudes yellow shoulder pads to make them happy. Had the same thoughts about the Dark Angels even.
Raptors are the ones you're looking for. Dark Angels appear to be sensibly dressed until all the monastic vestments come out.
The raven guard seem suited well to stealth until they pull out the WHITE HELMETS
I think it's very good to show us your mistakes during the first shading of agrax earthshade, lot of beginners like me need it to see we are not alone
Glad it helped 😊
Yep. My first time painting was on a white Tau turret. The mess I got after shading was disheartening, but then, the power of the clean up stages!
Duncan, could you someday make a "behind the scenes" video? so we could see how all of this is made :)
To be clear, any excuse to get to meet Roger.....
Also, does he warhammer and can we see them?
Amazing concept, seems like a cool chapter
Thank you 😊
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA Have you decided what geneseed they would be based on? This sort of thing sounds like Rogal Dorn.
@@seanwhitman8353 Rogal Dorn would not allow Hazard Stripes.
@@anexistanthuman2435 Maybe they are Crimson Fist successors? And Cawl doesn't care.
@@seanwhitman8353 to be fair i sort of believe 9/10 of the cool shite in admech is because Cawl doesn't care.......like one day he went beep boop cowboys on giant cyborg dogs that breath fire!
Great way to start my morning!
Ahhh, I see loyalist iron warriors! Definitely not traitor stock, same with Sons of the Phoenix. Gosh, I love 40k lore secrets)
Yeah that plus the demo model has a "IV" marking... Nothing to see here inquisitor I swear!
@@michaela4143 yep
@@vitaliyred622 Also, the Chapter/Legion Symbol being on the right shoulder is a clear indicator for their old heritage, wearing mostly Mk V and VI armour. The chevrons replaced the studs on the newer shoulder guards.
I'm actually 12 years old and I love your color scheme and I will have to try it out. And if you want Ican show you when im done!
Sounds great Seth
Some of these methods will be great for my white scars!
Absolutely
Exactly what I was thinking! Duncan makes painting white power armour less daunting 100%
Sooooo, a new chapter to join my Deathwatch force! :D
I love to integrate custom chapters ^^
No intention on painting miniatures but these videos are basically therapy
Ah if only time travel was possible, you'd blow 11 year old Duncans mind when he saw his Void Knights so expertly realised
Young Duncan would be sooo proud of you !
The shading and white armor really look great with this technique.
Duncan Sharing His Childhood:
Truly A Good Man
I can't belive the stripes are hand painted! They look amazingly stright! I was sure you were going to get out the masking tape like I do for this kind of thing.
Wonderful job!
11:10
"So a great way to test that is to do lines"
Ah yes, the ol' "Valhallan Blizzard", I catch your drift, Duncan.
So 11 year old Duncan managed to create a Space Marine color scheme that makes the model look genuinely badass and intimidating to me, something GW itself has never succeeded at.
Neat!
Duncan this space marine chapter looks so cool...and the new Primaris Space Marines with their beatyfull new armor are just perfect for it. To think you came up with this scheme at 11 y/o wow...the future was set right then and there for you. Great work...really love it
God, I love how smug you look in the thumbnails.
Smug? Just happy lol, always happy 😊
"ah, smug mode". th-cam.com/video/qMa0CxgCqiM/w-d-xo.html
This is why I love your videos. It's not only a two-thin-coats-god demonstration of force, it's also the tale of a hobbyist, from childhood to now, with all the fun that comes with !
Love how you rember and developed the details of your first army. It really shows your passion for the hobby.
I don't even paint miniatures or play Warhammer, i'm just here for the chill vibe and the technique
All of these tutorials are just top class, both for actual instructive purposes and just as something therapeutic and entertaining to watch. Thank you to both of you for your hard work, can’t wait for more!
Hazard stripes are everything!!!
Very cool and interesting chapter design. They must be Iron Warriors successors. The stripes give it away.
Anywhere I can find backstory for the Void Knights? Love reading people's homebrew lore.
There’s a cute TH-cam comment, it has a lot of likes so it’s neat the top. That’s kinda it though
I have decided that I'm subscribed for using small ideas for different things.
Obi wan's armour for my tau
These chevrons for my Iron warriors
I love this channel and your great style of tips and advice!
If I tried this paint scheme, I would have botched it within the first 5 minutes. Keep up the amazing work mate.
One of the best painting tutorials I've ever seen, you really made that look easy fantastic job thank you. Also outstanding paint scheme great Style.
I've been trying to find a quick way to paint my Votann with white armor for months now. This was a great tutorial, thank you.
Greetings from Australia (it’s 10:51pm currently) but when I saw this I was like “gotta go fast!!” 😂
Hiya! 😊
Looks kind of like a stormtrooper from Star Wars. Excellent as always sir Duncan.
I like that scheme. 11 y old Duncan can be proud. Great job
We think he will be proud too 😊
Back in the days of the snap fot paint set when the gw stores smelt of solvent and boxes was a fiver each... the good old days of racks on racks of blisters that made kids dream lol 😆
I also started painting WarHammer at the age of about 11-12 years. However, I collected Tyranids, not Space Marines. I remember my first model, it was a Carnifex, and I tried to paint it in the Leviathan colour scheme without any knowledge of life hacks and tricks like thinning down paints, washing, highlighting, all that sort of stuff, and it turned out *horrible.* One day, I am hoping to return to my hobby and try actually painting a model with all your tips in mind.
Man, your videos just keep getting better and more entertaining, You're really funny.
Thanks Guillermo 😊
I just want to say thank you Duncan. You helped me learn to paint warhammer and as of that I have improved greatly, so thankyou Chapter Master Duncan.
Duncan's first Void Knight - Who are you?
Duncan's primaris Void Knight - I'm you from the future.
These look great !
Very nice scheme!!!
I love it when schemes aren't just boring palette swaps of other existing chapters, but they instead have their own unique colours, layouts or details.
It's almost like a mix between Luna wolves and iron warriors too!!
Came in for chevrons, did not regret it. No more getting offset in the middle and backside cause I started in the front corner! Also love the chapter colors. Iron Within Iron Without!
Videos like this are why I’m glad Duncan has his own channel now.
After watching so many painting videos it makes me want to start collecting.
Watching at 7:23 and seeing the "how to pain stormtroopers" video in the suggested I'm sensing the same color scheme! Thanks for the vid!
I like how when Duncan was trying to explain how to correct runaway wash, he tried to do a section quickly so he’d have a mess to clean up and still did it perfectly, then had to go and make the mistake deliberately.
Truly a master who has to try to mess up.
I've been painting for roughly the same amount of time, and I direct everyone that asks me questions to you. This video, in particular, shows so many skills that it's a perfect primer to leveling up as a painter. Glad to be a subscriber to the painting academy, and I'm thankful that you're making teaching my friends easy!
So glad you're out here doing these videos still! Really helped inspire me to get painting the mountains of grey plastic!
As someone that wants to start a WEs army with the Pre-Heresy color scheme, the tutorial is super useful for me.
11 year old duncan must’ve been awesome to hang out with. Brilliant as always
I am so glad you made your own channel! I really enjoyed your warhammer tv videos.
Also the white and yellow colours almost don't look real, they're that good!
Hey Duncan, fan from Italy here. I just wanted to thank you for all the help and inspiration you gave to our little community of tabletop gamers here where I live. You truly are a legend among painters of all countries!
Cheers and keep it up :)
Wow, thank you so much for the kind words Andrea. I'll pass these on to Roger (the other half of our team). We're glad you enjoy it and say hi to your community for us 😊
The Void Knight looks outstanding. Great colors and awesome tutorial. Love that you superimposed the paints and brushes you used on the top of the screen.
Duncan, you are the Bob Ross of miniature painting, glad you are doing what you love :D
No matter what miniature I've painted in the past, I've always preferred Rhinox Hide for leather parts..😁👍
Favorite painting videos by far - thanks Duncan!
Hi Duncan. A while back, I commented on one of your videos asking for beginer tips, and you were kind enough to answer. Just wanted to let you know that I now am the proud owner of a small Necron and Space Marine force. Fully assembled, but still unpainted due to a lack of time, other projets and a shortage of primer in my local hobby stores. And it turned out to be a good thing, as I was going to commit the same error as you years ago and paint them with tiny size 0 and 00 brushes... Those minis should be primed today or tomorrow if the weather allows it, and I'm ordering some better brushes as we speak. Thanks a lot for your videos, you are particulary good at making the whole process of painting look less intimidating.
Beautifully painted Duncan! The color scheme is simple but very neat looking.Thanks for sharing this tutorial on painting this, it was great to watch.
This is the kind of improvement in miniature painting I aspire to. Brilliant work, Duncan!
My favorite part of the week!!
I recntly discuss with a young painter (13) who painted a not as new Necron warrior as a wooden necron. He did a very good job at prep the mini and it was very difficult to say he was a very young painter. The thing is that he also wanted to paint the gauss cannon dark green and have a blend toward bright green on some part, mainly the "bayonette" of the gun. His edge highlight was good on most part except here, it was huge and woblly. When I discussed with him, he told me that he tried using 4 different paints and didn't want to buy more and that these 4 layers made the sharp bayonette not so sharp and that was why his highly was so rough.
In other word, thin your paint and you don't have to buy 15 different paint to have a nice blend, mix your paint !
I learned so much from watchingnyor videos here and on gw and I feel happy with the work I do thank you
Just love Duncan’s work
Great painter
GW certainly misses him
Nice to see you paint a White colored space marine, would like to see a White Scar miniature in the future.
And hopefully this video takes away some fear people have of painting white Marines, Sisters, Tau Battlesuits etc.
I got 10 space marines to paint each in a separate chapter, this one is definitely on that list
This video was really well done. Fantastic painting, and fantastic camera work and editing.
Would love to see a video of the brushes you prefer for different step/techniques. Still new to the hobby so the subtle aspects I still don’t fully grasp yet.
So GOOD! Love the scheme, and you did an amazing job as always. It's also great to see you go back to a scheme you painted as a kid and the little bits of lore were excellent!
I’m early today, the model really look like it got two thin coat doe
It really do
Just painted a single marine in this chapters colours for fun. Looks great; this is a nice looking colour scheme.
We all know Duncan just loves his Knights
Loved seeing you repaint your Void Knights, Duncan. Also inspired me to continue with my White Scars!
I always find white armor to be a real pain. A while back (before Covud-19 happened) I painted a White Scars Assault Squad for a friend's birthday. I was about to bite pieces out of my furniture, but I finished with the models looking alright.
That color scheme is pretty classy
I love hearing about custom Space Marine chapters so this was awesome!
Nice seeing you revisiting this legendary mini.
When i see that first miniature i just imagine muffled screaming, now ceased. he is appeased.
What a great video! The ideas of ship to ship boarding actions, the yellow shoulder and the theme of 'knight' made me think of these guys as Imperial Fist successors. Their gene-seed brothers might have an issue with hazard markings though.
I have some old Crimson Fists I painted when I was a little kid (they were on the box at rhe time!) and still love those guys....
Such a good colour schemes - hazard lines look amazing. Use hazard lines as the trim on the bases of all my Necromunda stuff - it's a great visual.
In the Grim Darkness of the present, Duncan's voice is a much-needed salve.
White Panthers just became easier for me to paint :) thank you
As a space wolf player that shoulder brings me great joy
Glorious!
I could see myself painting a combat patrol of these fine fellows.
Hope you tell more about them like who's their Primarch, favored tactics and their area of operation! They look cool!
Love this color scheme!
Have to admit, the thing about presenting the hazard lines to the enemy is actually a surprisingly Space Marine thing to do...
this dude is the Bob Ross of mini painting
