This channel is about painting miniatures for your warhammer, infinity, warmachine & d&d games, as well as age of sigmar and warhammer 40k. space marines, space wolves, sisters of battle, stormcast eternals, beastclaw raiders, mawtribes, cities of sigmar, chaos space marines. Also painting different scale models and miniature busts! How to paint NMM. How to paint warhammer, how to paint D&D figures.
As a regular viewer, I’m commenting to show the algorithm how much I enjoy these long form videos! Maybe my experience will help it reach more viewers 😅
I think the thing that I enjoy the most about your work is how you consistently present the rationale to your approach, it’s less a case of “do this, do that” and more “here’s why I’m doing this”. It makes your videos infinitely more easy to digest. Also your explanation of what you interpret as grimdark goes a long way to explain your approach in the first place.
I wish he did them in separate videos. While it is interesting to see his rationale and how he reached certain conclusions sometimes I just want to see painting tips/tutorials and don't have time to watch 2 hours of hum "figuring it out"
@@Astrospill There are dozens upon dozens of other channels doing short videos. You seem to want something that is easy to find elsewhere. Should a youtube channel switch styles to be like all the others?
@@Astrospillall of these videos are available as seperate videos on my channel? 🤔
Thank you for taking a deeper look at Grim Dark than just " slosh on some streaking grime". It really is more of a mental and emotional aesthetic attempting to convey the hopelessness of the reality in that imagined time. I appreciate the work you do and the thoughtfulness with which you approach it.
What if your chapter of Space Marines are clean freaks?
@@DiggitySliceyou can make it clean and dramatik, you do not need mud to be dramatik
@@DiggitySlice You could have really shiny and clean armour with bright blood or something that shows the emotionless, "robotic" side to Space Marines, perhaps?
@@DiggitySlice Molotow Liquid Chrome + Allclad II = mirror finish that's durable to handle on a tabletop. You will have *the shiniest space marines ever.*

'Don't be afraid, it's only paint' thanks, I needed to hear this.
i cant count the times i watched this .its such a pleasure watching the best mini painter on u tube . the technique , the explanation . you have helped my mini painting go to a new level .thank you
The biggest thing I get from watching your videos is just to trust the process. I often get too hung up on avoiding mistakes and I end up not pushing the paintjob further. I'd love to see you do something for space Wolves, Grey is a hard colour to get interesting!
Dude casually drops a nearly 2 hour painting vid. Holy crap! Thank you man, gonna give this a go for my Howling Griffons!
More than any other artist I follow. I'm never quite convinced while the work is happening. But when the finished product is shown, I'm BLOWN AWAY!!
NOthing encapsulates this more then Trovarians grimdark necron. Will forever be my favorite paint job. I've rewatched that video hundreds of times.
Edit: No one should ever be in a hurry when painting a Primarch.
Grimdark isn’t about the end results, it’s about the friends we made along the way.
The journey brother!
I found the Salamander
That sounds like the complete opposite of Grim Dark.
What you said is more Amiable Light😅
Friends?
FRIENDS?!?!
HERETIC!!! FETCH THE FLAMER, BROTHERS!!!! THE *HEAVY* FLAMER!!!!
Enemies we made along the way. No friends.
This 1 video tells you 80% of what you need to do for most painting. Amazing stuff
I've been working at a blue-grey colour scheme in this style adapted to my own tastes. Thanks for inspiring me to try something different after 14 years of doing similar things and not having the courage to change things up. I realised after painting my second mini that I'd been falling out of love with the hobby and this has been just the thing to rekindle the joy I felt when I first started.
What colors are you using? I‘m think about doing a similar thing for Space Wolves. A transition from a darker grey into a grey blue
This couldn’t be any better timed.
I’ve already watched your Grimdark videos several times over in preparation to try the style myself.
Now I can watch this and procrastinate painting just a little longer!
I think what you were describing about not viewing painting as clearly defined stages transfers to anything in life, and using your understanding of something to be more fluid with your actions is so beneficial. It's also such a massive confidence booster using your own knowledge
The difference once the model is properly dried always amazes me! I don't know anything about mini painting but from hours of watching youtube videos! I really enjoy just watching the process!
At first!
Thank you for demonstrating a variant of "grimdark" which is not just a base color and an oilwash- not to judge how people approach their painting stile, but in my opinion you present the full ambience in the miniature, without it is just a dirty looking miniature !
You definately inspired me to pick up my space marines from the pile again !
Thanks for your time and effort in sharing and inspiring !
I'm going to paint my marines as Legion of the damned, but I've held off as I haven't seen a black armor scheme that I've liked, this was awesome. It's exactly what I needed
Your,, grimdark" videos are simply amazing, i'm always looking forward for the next one
As a relative newbie to the hobby, this has been fantastic in making me think/move beyond the same old steps!
I picked up warhammer after a 10+ years brake. And this kind of video is just what I need.
I am amaced how much warhammer has changed over my pause. The figures and the huge amount of new paint teqnuecs.
I then painted figures like the box art but with your methods im defo gonna give grim Dark a go
I finally found the time to watch this. I have watched each of the videos in the past, but rewatching still felt rewarding and gave me a motivation boost and some inspiration.
"Fork" the time it takes, focus on enjoyment, and aim for your best shot is pretty much what I took from this.
Comments for the algorithm god, and watchtime for his throne
Truly amazing as always. I would like to see you do Grimdark with the different chapters of chaos space marines. Thank you for what you do. 😊
Yes me too, about to get into 40k with Chaos Space Marines!
Wow, Great job. Your one of the Best I've seen. Thanks, You Rock. :)
I have been binging on painting videos lately, after coming back to 40k from an over a decade hiatus. Your skills and the results are astounding. Thank you.
Exquisite workmanship, beautifully painted and weathered.
This is definitely one of my favorite series you've done. It's helped me try to be more aware of where I place colors but also with experiment with how I paint I even started mixing contrast and shades. This was fun to watch all of these in one video
Excellent deep dive into this painting style. I love it!
YES!!! THE ULTIMATE GRIMDARK PAINTING VIDEO!!! Thank you for this, my favorite is still the Black Templars 😊
Oh Trov posted a video
*>Sees length of video*
Oh we in for a treat.
They white battle-worn weapons on the ultra marine just pop and are simply beautiful! Love this channel!
Awesome to have it in one video. These videos have competely changed my painting style. Can't go back to factory fresh any more.
I really appreciate this long form combo video! It made it so easy to view and compare!
This who video is an amazing look into some truly jaw-dropping results, and each one is spectacular in its own way; they remind me of pictures of battle-worn tanks, but bipedal. But that shield... by the Emperor, that shield! 1:32:41
This has really opened my eyes to painting on colour.. it's not all dark base, mid tones, highlights repeat.. there are a lot of different methods to achieving a realistic look! Thank you!
YAAAAAS, love your painting style, your videos have had a a profound influence on my painting and desire to paint, glad i get to see more of the process
This was perfect listening for my painting session!
Amazing work, both painting and teaching other pigment pushers!
22:59 is such a mood (and gives me a decent enough comment to feed the bot)
Love your work and proud to support
This is fantastic! I have been working out in my head how to get this feel as well. As an artist I have always preferred the gritty realistic feel/style. This was huge for bridging some of the ideas I have been playing with. Thanks so much!
I wasn't actually looking for a grim dark tutorial, but I thought it sounded interesting!
I just started painting, and this really gave me some ideas, and techniques to try out on my sylvaneth army!
Thank you so much man!
Man! this is totally the way I'm taking my hobby. These pieces are fantastic!!!
Been excited to watch this! I could not bring myself to watch it before out of fear of wanting to restart my LVO army and now I am preparing for next years it is a perfect time to watch.
I need to confesso that I was skeptical with the black templar but when you put the final highlight and metal edge highlight it just tied everything and really worked. Amazing
Thanks for making this and putting them all together. Learned so much! Would love to see your take on a Dark Angel
*Our favorite Austrian artist with the mustache.*
This is honestly the most fun I've had painting a space marine. Would love to see you use this method on a chaos marine
You're probably the best space marine painter in the world
So glad I found this video. I've been looking for more realistic looking techniques than most of the other miniature channels use. Also been having issues with my metallic golds having odd consistencies compared to other paints, and painting over the silver is a brilliant fix to the issue
Thanks for the videos. Always learning a lot of new stuff - here for the algorithm. Keep it going!
Awesome, thank you!
I'd love to see you do this on a Chaos model! Seeing how you would incorporate your grimdark style to metallic trim would be great!
Excited to watch this, i love your content man
I love tis style of painting. Looks battle hardened which i think many paint jobs miss.
About to paint my first set of Imperial Fist HH.
I've some experience weathering 3D prints (I build Mandalorian Armour to wear) and I wanted a style in my miniatures that looks lived in too and this is perfect. Thanks for the really in-depth, easy to follow guide.
I love the grim dark world of warhammer40k it's a refreshing turn on the look of Astartes with a used look of to much battle!
I played this all the way through just to help then went back to the bits I needed a great vid
Thank you!
Sweetle, I prefer a similar style. You gave me a few techniques to try out and keep things fun. Thank you.
Im so glad your still making videos. They alwaus inspire me to paint and to try new things.
Thank you!
would love too see your grimdark take on Dark Angels in the green armour. Love the finished results of this technique. Keep up the good work. :)
This is incredible 👏
WOW these are amazing, you are super talented. ❤
Great video, very interesting paint jobs! You may want to stipple less white onto the Black Templar cross in the future. White implies a "chip" in the cross, showing the white pauldron below and would thus be less common. Whereas the brown you stippled on looks right, because dirt would go on over top of the cross and cover it accordingly. I love this style of painting, and I learned a lot from this video. Thank you sir.
I love this. The Blood Angel is sort of a template for my Word Bearers Kill Team right now. I would very much love to see this technique on some models with more details such as trim (CSM) or maybe just decoration (like Custodes). Anyway I really love this and the fact that you teach things that are approachable for beginners and intermediate painters and which are also fast and have the potential to grow with practice. In contrast I feel that I am much more limited with a technique like slap chop when it comes to "growth".
This video has made up my mind. I am getting back into this after 30 years.
let's gooooo
Can’t wait to watch this in full, in full detail.
Been big fan of this series since came out. This truely how image warhammer to feel and look. have (no prob with peoples ultra clean, but doesnt always missing dark feel) Every time you post new one these always give me urge to paint
In the late day of 2024, I just now discovered Warhammer. It only took a few days before I knew it would be a glorious obsession. Thank you so much for getting me started learning to paint. Very helpful!
I'm loving your videos. Total newb here but I find much value in watching your techniques as it gives me ideas on how I can make improvements. Thank you!
Here boosting the algorithm, I don't usually watch grimdark painting videos so passed on these when they first came out - glad I checked this one out, turns out your approach is more in line with my interpretation on grimdark paintjobs. Here's how it's done, folks!
Great video! Love the painting and the commentary. Plus some funny bits too.
I’ve really learnt to look at my models in a different way because of your vids. I don’t see a surface that needs a colour anymore I try to see the gradient of colour in the scene. Probs obvs to others. Thanks for the vids!
What exactly do you use to create the base? 13:22

@@trovarionThank you 😁
All of these videos have inspired me to try new techniques and enjoy the journey along the way! Thanks very much!
Holy jeepers creepers!!! I’ve been waiting for this for so long! THANK YOU
I've taken to using the sponging technique loads now, it's especially cool for terrain as well.
these are so great. I would love to see how you might apply these techniques to chaos marines, with all of their trim, especially the red and black techniques
Good point, anything that makes that filigree less excruciating would be great
This is a fantastic collection of tutorials!
My guide to my space marine minis. Love the scope used on these models
Thank you for video!
Sir, it's great! I would definitely try your method!
Wow amazing work! Hope this gets the views it deserves. I'll be coming back to this one for a long time
I've never wanted to follow a walkthrough for painting a mini as much as I do with this video. Boutta go bust out some paint. I own 1 single Blood Angel that I pulled from a Space Marine Heroes mystery box, and I want Brother Lucien to look exactly like this.
Most YT videos: "2 hours?! Pfft, ain't nobody got time for that"
Tovarion YT video: "2 hours?! Oh yeah baby, strap me in!"
The best marines ever! Just fantastic.
Love the Dark Angel - almost tempted to switch chapters by the video, almost.
No words, what a master class!
This is great to have on the background while painting lol
You’re painting skills are second to none - so inspirational! I loved the texture on the Black Templar, although I felt it looked more blueberry than black, but still defo want to try it. Fantastic job as always! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
These results are incredible.
It would be awesome to see your take on painting Night Lords in this style! Especially how to tackle lighting on weathered and grungy armor
Excellent tips! Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic series, keep up the awesome work
Great tutorial and great work, keep it up Petyr Bealish! ;)
Thank you for yet another excellent video
Question on technique - while highlighting the tabard at 40:53 he says 'and then as I moved down I worked with less opaqueness.'
How was the paint's lower opaqueness achieved? Was it a matter of how he applied the paint, or was more medium \ water added to the paint he was applying to make it thinner?
more water added
Very nice-- distinctive. Definitely looks a lot more rough and... dark.
It would be amazing if you did this style grimdark series on a few of the popular chaos space marine chapters, I love this style and am currently trying to adapt it to my chaos army but all the extra trim and trappings of the chaos marines feels like its requires a bit of a different aproach which I am trying to work out, but I would love to see your take on the chaos chapters in grimdark.
Absolutely love this style 👍🔥
man your work looks just awesome
Love love love the black marine. Mot convinced about the shoulder pads, though... feel like they are a little too damaged/weathered
