You are literally my painting hero. I've been dabbling more with non-metallic metals with my own figures and this helps a ton. Keep up the awesome work!
I knew there was an energy to this channel i liked, and that energy is the energy of painting with a baby monitor nearby, when you could be eating/sleeping/cleaning because god dang it you need something in your life thats not those things and watching the kids
a nice little tip that i recommend for others is to use a glossy black undercoat and take a photo and use the reflection of the actual light as a guide for which paint goes where. it helps me out alot
This was such a great video. I have watched a bunch of NMM videos to try to learn and the way you approached this and walked through it just made it click. Thank you so much.
I agree with you about nmm. It's super fun. I think something that often gets lost when painting figures for games is that painting to the very highest level you can, using advanced techniques is really *fun*.
Actually found this video really helpful. I’m just getting into Warhammer 40k and about to get my first models. I want to get space wolves and your style of painting looks amazing on them. I’d love to see more featuring models from that faction ☺️
This is actually one of the best NMM tutorials I've seen on youtube, and mostly because you show the entire process and pay close attention to describing where to place and why you place the highlights to make it read as metal. Well done, I hope you feel proud of what you achieved! I know I would be.
This video was great. I'm impressed that it was just your phone. You must be a wizard in post 😂. I like this format and think that more would be good 🙂
I have a friend who just started doing NNM gold for the first time. He's still a pretty new painter, and has been having some trouble. I am gonna try to share this video with him!
Most of those brushes are made to use with watercolouring. If you keep that in mind while using acryllic paint for miniatures, and keep your paint consistency a bit watered down, you will be able to keep a more sharp point on your brush(es). And use brush soap at the end of your paint session.
I was wondering the same thing then I came across this video from Jose Davinci: th-cam.com/video/8vQFlYW3g_I/w-d-xo.html The entire video is gold, but particularly the way he cleans the brush in his palm at 15:00 has really helped me keep my brush nice, sharp and clean. Not the shampooing part. I bought a brush soap before I saw this so I keep using that, but cleaning with a dollop of water like that is amazingly effective. I do It every now and then while painting, and I always do it when changing colors. Only takes a couple of seconds and works perfectly! Hope this helps you as well :)
I love your painting style. Seeing your miniatures has me tempted to try NMM for the first time. I have been looking for shape reflection references too.
Excellent tutorial! And what timing! Last week I tried doing my first NMM and I want to do more. This is super helpful! Thanks Stehpanie, you're the best :)
Thank you for this❤ When I can’t eat a full meal, I try to keep some healthy snacks nearby (like carrots, berries). At least this way I get something for my body😂
Awesome tutorial! I love your style, feels like the next step up from my own so it's super helpful! Do you have a tutorial for how you painted the rest of the Lizardmen parts?
Aw thank you! I’m currently working on a video for the rest of the weapon shown in this video, and some picture tutorials for things like the skin and jade, etc. :-)
Watching you do it is helpful, because NMM gold is truly a huge PITA for me at this time. I'm getting the hang (sloooowly) of the other metals, but gold is particularly annoying for me. Are you glazing in the transitions between colors? And yes, edge highlighting is annoying!
This was a lot more helpful than other tutorials where they cut away and do t explain enough
Your tutorials really demystify a lot of the painting process. They are awesome! Keep them coming and thank you!
Glad you like them! :-)
This is the first NMM video that actually clicked with me.
So glad to hear that 😀

Oh my, thank you 🥰
Wow her painting make me feel like the kid that used eat the paste instead of paying attention in art class. Love the work.

The way you explain it makes it so easy to understand ! Great job 🤘🏾
Glad you think so!
This helped. Light/shadow placement is my current challenge.
Awesome :)

Totally agree!
this made more sense to me than any other nmm video i've ever watched.

You are amazing friend! Thank you for this!!! You motivated me to try some NMM!
Your work makes me look like a child painting figures, Awesome
What an amazing video, precise delivery and simple explanations. Thank you so much.

Beautiful work, and I think the video was really helpful. Thanks!

Greatly appreciated! Thank you for this tutorial =)
Thanks for watching :-)
All of these painting tutorials I see leave me wanting just 1 tutorial- how do people keep their brushes with such a sharp point?!
Diluted paint, just use the tip of the brush, and clean it as soon as you have finished your paint session.
Good brushes, Raphael 8404 always had a good point for me
Most of those brushes are made to use with watercolouring. If you keep that in mind while using acryllic paint for miniatures, and keep your paint consistency a bit watered down, you will be able to keep a more sharp point on your brush(es). And use brush soap at the end of your paint session.
@@lexiaojun been using them for ages without soap and haven't had many problems, watering down and keeping them wet helps keep their point

That’s great! I hope it goes well :-)
Nicely done and well explained. Thanks for this tutorial.👍👍😉
Thanks for watching :)
perfect timing this got me through building the squats bikes 😂 great video !!
Those are such a pain to build (and paint) 😩
Amazing guide! I wish you will make same for steel and iron (and maybe other metals)
Thank you!! Steel is currently in progress :)
Excellent tutorial! And what timing! Last week I tried doing my first NMM and I want to do more. This is super helpful! Thanks Stehpanie, you're the best :)
This is great to hear :D
Saving this for later for my eventual (and I’m sure to be very painful) thousand suns army
Oooo good luck!! The trim on all those 😅
Very nice NMM i gonna work at Korxigor also thx you for your video
thanks so much :)
Thank you for this❤
When I can’t eat a full meal, I try to keep some healthy snacks nearby (like carrots, berries).
At least this way I get something for my body😂
First of all fantastic work. Could you share the colours you have used. I found that using specific colours for NMM really helps.
Thanks! It’s in the description of the video.
Awesome tutorial! I love your style, feels like the next step up from my own so it's super helpful! Do you have a tutorial for how you painted the rest of the Lizardmen parts?
Aw thank you! I’m currently working on a video for the rest of the weapon shown in this video, and some picture tutorials for things like the skin and jade, etc. :-)
I think i recognize those brushes! How do you like them?
Excellent video. Could you please share where you purchased the copper palette paper weights?
They were a gift so I’m not sure :( sorry!!
Audio was fine!
Phew!
I can’t find the recipe. Could you tell us please what the recipe is?

I did glaze in between some transitions but I did it all on-camera so you can see which steps needed that extra blending. Thanks for watching!
@@OrionsBeltMinis That's what I thought, and thank you as ever! I'm saving this video for future reference, for sure.
