🖌️ I've made my own dream brushes and miniatures! Squidmar Paintbrushes & Busts Kickstarter campaign; Late pledges are up and You can check it out here: www.squidmar.com/latepledge
After decades away from painting miniatures I've recently become interested again and finding you videos has been absolutely fantastic. You have such enthusiasm for what you do and it shows in your work. Thank you for being Alan inspiration to get back to what I used to love
Hey Squidmar, just wanted to thank you for being a inspiration to some of us newer guys; I think I can say, I honestly joined painting minis especially my army of death guard because you and some other youtubers like Miniac are inspirations to just go out and do it! My minis aren’t as good as yours yet but maybe one day...?! Lol thanks again! Looking forward to your next video man!
Thanks for another great video! Sorry if you already know this, but here´s a photoshop tip: When coloring over the zenithal highlited photo in photoshop, try setting the brush mode to "Color". That preserves the value structure of the image below, but just changes the hue. I think it might give you much more realistic photoshop sketches of your models. Again, apologies if you are aware of this already!
I know this is a bit late to the party, but Picking painting back up again and wanting to delve deeper into more techniques this video helps tremendously. This is the first one I have seen that actually tells and shows you where to put the highlight paint.
In case people wanna know what the smooth beat is, it's Yomoti - Fansipan. Awesome vid Emil, a good useful guide for both beginners and people venturing into new areas of miniature painting.
I have to say.... SUPERB !!!! this time you had me spend money... and it's well spent. One more thing... your brushes... where can i order them ? TY From portugal
I really think you found a good "type" (not sure if that's the right word) of video. Based on techniques with specifics but applies to all kinds of models instead of a single model. Not to mention they are awesome too. Thank you for sharing, stay safe!
Emil, I needed this tutorial very badly. Getting ready to paint the Tyrant from the game Hate and if you look at him closely, he has one or two skulls. I have been staring at him for quite awhile now, so much so that we are both a bit uncomfortable. Anyway I wanted a way to make the skulls pop and this is going to help me a lot and it's such a simple thing. Thank you so much for all you do.
It's models like these that make me want a 3d printer but sadly that's never gonna happen. It's a shame they don't do them as minis rather than print schematics :(
Great Tutorial! I always love to see different approaches to painting bone. Leather is always one of those tricky things. Thanks for sharing! Also, those loot minis are killer!
This video popped up in my feed and I figured I might as well absorb another method for painting horns... I did a double-take when I heard Emil say "...under the name 'Loot'..." I've been subscribed to both sides of Loot Studios for over nine months now 😂 Blew my mind to randomly have this "up-and-coming" new independent 3D sculptor mentioned and sponsor a video and realize that the video is two years old, haha.
I was useing the same paints today you used on the wraps of its weapon on my Death Guard, I to was painting wraps on the Blades and around the Bolters. My palette is limited due to me only having the citadel paint sets but I get some nice results.
Say what you want I will still believe Emil relised this video for the sole reason that this morning I was thinking "there are never enough tutorial about leather”!!!
I wish Kickstarter type of companies like Loot-Games for example would allow people to order 1/2 models we’d like, yes, charge me an additional fee like £20 per model, I never want to order 60 models, I always find one or two that I’d love and I’m meh about the rest due to personal tastes.
This effect is nice, but too time consuming for "normal" units. If I have 10 skulls on a base I just do them with contrast paint and drybrush. But for leaders and bigger models I'd do it like you showed. I even experimented with different colour combinations to get more yellow or white or clean or dirty looking skulls.
It's so satisfying to see how well the paint applies to the work. I wish I could achieve the same liquid texture. Are you adding thinner to your paint when bottling? If so, which thinner?
Getting the right paint consistency is a big part of mastering painting in general. Most paints you can simply thin with water. You want to apply just enough water so the paint flows off the brush; too much water and it will be runny, not enough water and it will be dry and flaky and will not cover well. You will have to practice this before you get an intuition for it.
Why did you do the first white airbrush highlight on the model and then completely paint over that for the leather and belt parts? Do you not use the highlighted underpart to help with painting?
The music at around 12 minutes (that’s where I first actually noticed it) reminds me of The Rescuers, when an exhausted Evenrude gets trapped in a glass bottle by some bats. Completely unrelated to your video (which I enjoyed by the way) but there you go...
Hello Emile and thank you from France for all what you do on your channel ! I wasn't too much awaken this morning when I saw your video, and I almost suscribed to Loot's stuff before realising that they sell only 3D printer files , and not printed miniatures... So could you give me an advice for a good but not too expensive 3D printer? You gave me desire to buy one, but if it's too expensive, the first object printed with it could be a slayer sword by my wife to kill me! lol
@@SquidmarMiniatures I looked at it and it looks good, speedy and precise but fragile...I also heard about the creality 3D ender 3 , What do you think about it, Is it worthy for minis?
Hi. Great tutorial as usual! Love the way you demonstrate the theory on photoshop, it really helps visualise everything. Can I ask what miniature this is in the video? I love it!!!
@@SquidmarMiniatures great. Thanks. I hadn't watched the entire video when I commented and then felt a fool when I did!!! All I need to do now is get a 3d printer!!!! :)
when you work with the skull, did you apply the lighter shade on top of darker shade, did you apply it wet and blend it on the go or do shade on several layer ?
That tavern looks sweet. I was gonna say that it´s to bad that every other new sculpt these days seems to require a 3D printer, but then I realized it´s quite a good thing for my wallet...
Love the videos im new to Aos playing Gitz. Love Goblins. Trying to figure out paint scheme where i could have squads in groups of 20, but be able to combine to squads of 60 and have the three groups of 20 mesh well together. Advice?
I wonder if these techniques work with other colors too. i also wonder what types of techniques work for tattoos, or painting with oil. there is probably some differences.. Hilsningar från lønneberget
I have a question and I'm sorry if I'm ignorant with it. I'm absoluteley new to painting, at the same time I want to dedicate as much time as I can to every individual part. of course my work is grotesque in comparison but still. Is it not better for me to say I buy Duranti the Arch Revenant, ight all nice an dandy. My fingers are a little shaky so I can't surgeon my way around an assambled model. So what I'm doing is I spray the entire model before I cut it from the... uhm... you take it out of the box, its in plastic so you gotta cut every piece out? I don't know how to describe the thing the pieces are in Im sorry. So I take it out of the box and I spray it before I cut the pieces out with wraithbone (Only spray I have atm) then before I assamble it I paint every piece individually and place highlights after I glue them together and its easier to see where the sun would be and everything. Am I doing something wrong? TwT in videos the minis are already assambled and I feel like that just makes painting harder. (P.S. Sorry for grammar mistakes, english isn't my native tongue)
Perhaps a dumb question, but when they say that you can print miniatures in 70mm scale, does that mean that the printer must have a model printing width of at least 70mm?
@@SquidmarMiniatures ok... So yes is was a dumb question... But I really appreciate the answer. Would you be able to recommended printing size needed for a machine to do the 75mm scale? I'm really keen... Most affordable but good ones seem around 65-70mm width.
Just subscribed to these great models, I'm having real trouble getting a detailed print on my photon S though, using chitubox but I just can't get the right settings?! Does anyone have any ideas I'm wasting so much resin. Thanks.
Just yesterday i struggled to paint claws and horns and boney crests of a war hydra ^^; (besides, they ended up way worse than yours :-| ) Well, as usual, nice video!

TY From portugal
What about old subcribers
Um, didn't squiddy just do a Pile of shame-video and is now promoting a site that automatically adds to that pile every single month? =)
I'm quite surprised: The code doesn't work. "This coupon is invalid and can't be used."
@@Anecron1 is not shrinking 😬
Wow seeing your way of painting skulls is mindblowingly different than what I've done and seen. I have to try that method!!
I could watch you paint the entire thing while listning to your thought process. Perfekt att somna till.
I've subscribed to Loot for a few months. The miniatures are great!
I really think you found a good "type" (not sure if that's the right word) of video. Based on techniques with specifics but applies to all kinds of models instead of a single model. Not to mention they are awesome too. Thank you for sharing, stay safe!
This is such a great tutorial, Emil! Any chance we could get a video on doing intricate artwork on shoulderpads and banners?
Just as I was thinking "How would I do the leather on my Catachans?" this video pops up into my feed! Great timing! :D
Emil, I needed this tutorial very badly. Getting ready to paint the Tyrant from the game Hate and if you look at him closely, he has one or two skulls.

Anyway I wanted a way to make the skulls pop and this is going to help me a lot and it's such a simple thing. Thank you so much for all you do.
I think you must be seeing things, there are no skulls on that model.
Thanks Emil the skull and bone tutorial is very helpful
Amagad! Emil! You hung the picture!!! Whoohoo!!!
It's models like these that make me want a 3d printer but sadly that's never gonna happen. It's a shame they don't do them as minis rather than print schematics :(
Whoa... Those sculpts are so cool! They look amazing like each mini has its own personality and aura! I would kill to own that tavern set one day
Great Tutorial! I always love to see different approaches to painting bone. Leather is always one of those tricky things. Thanks for sharing! Also, those loot minis are killer!
I just got Loot to print on my new Anycubic, very very happy with the quality. And good video
Awesome job sir! Love your work!!
Might I suggest "Squidmariners" for patrons/fans of Squidmar.
That would work. My brain said Squidmartians. :D
Squidmarines?
Squadmar 👊🏼
The army of cephalopods?
We are the SQUIDMARINES! Lol
This was a really good and to-the-point video!
Your videos are the best, bro. Thank you so much
I'd love to see you finish that model!
Thank you , Squid .
those shadings really do make them colours POHP :)

Loved that intro line. "If you've ever painted a Games Workshop miniature...." Skulls for the skull throne!
Very impressive, thanks for sharing!
Hey Emil, I just wanted to complement your use for Photoshop. It's very demonstrative! Brilliant idea.
Wish i had seen this before i painted my beastboss! guess i need another one!
This is just the tutorial I needed!!! Thanks again Emil!!!🙌🙌🙏🙏👍🔥
I was useing the same paints today you used on the wraps of its weapon on my Death Guard, I to was painting wraps on the Blades and around the Bolters.
My palette is limited due to me only having the citadel paint sets but I get some nice results.
Those minis looked great. Had to sub and was nice with the discount for sure.
Another top quality vid 👍
Beautiful minis! Went right over and subscribed and got my discount. Already downloading the files to print. TY for the discount link!
2 years later printing my first loot studio miniature from the welcome pack
To do the eyesockets I drench it in wash and let the wash fill up the crevices. Easy way
Love your channel, keep up the great content!
I love this pack. I want it
Love the video emil
so far
Hell yes, I still got in with the discount :D thought it would be gone by now.
Say what you want I will still believe Emil relised this video for the sole reason that this morning I was thinking "there are never enough tutorial about leather”!!!
great tutorial. very useful. thank you
I use Game colour Bonewhite, wash with Sepia shade, then Bonewhite mixed with Off White and highlighted with pure Off White. Thin layers
I prefer a flesh wash rather than sepia as it gives a more aged bone look in my opinion
Muito bom! Alvaro Ribeiro é mestre! Que parceria sensacional... Nice work, guys.
Great video was watching paint eyes video when I got the notification lol great work man
Great vid. They are always super inspirational :) I often struggle with details like this on small scale minis like LOTR ones....
Really enjoyed this vid man, would love to see more like this! Don’t no if uve change what you do while editing but it seam more polished. Love it! 🙌🙌
You are amazing!
Majin Buu is the T H I C K E S T character in all of Dragon Ball
Subbed to Loot now. Looks cool.
Gran contenido! Eres un maquina
Damn i really need a wet palette like that. I barely get to put my paint on the palette I got before its dried out
I wish Kickstarter type of companies like Loot-Games for example would allow people to order 1/2 models we’d like, yes, charge me an additional fee like £20 per model, I never want to order 60 models, I always find one or two that I’d love and I’m meh about the rest due to personal tastes.
Nice!
Help full great
nice timing Emil ;)
Goblins ftw!
It's about time you put something out lol
I know it's hard to wait a week 😉
Amazing tutorial! Can you make a tutorial to paint wood? (for a skaven sryke army would be amazing!)
do you have any news about your brush kickstarter
This effect is nice, but too time consuming for "normal" units. If I have 10 skulls on a base I just do them with contrast paint and drybrush.

Where do I sign up for that Artist subscription?
Could you paint a grey knight
Is there an image anywhere of the completed mini?
What are the colors you used for the skin tone? I wish to make an Ogre army with a similar skin color. Thanks for your guides! Keep it up!

Your affiliate links for the brush don’t work there is nothing available for Europe
I wish there was an easy way to get all these 3d miniatures without a 3d printer
I paint my bones with eshin grey hobgrot hide and dryad bark you just need to drybrush alot
That tavern looks sweet. I was gonna say that it´s to bad that every other new sculpt these days seems to require a 3D printer, but then I realized it´s quite a good thing for my wallet...
Agreed, the characters in the scene look wonderful.
You can always purchase the prints from authorized merchants of the artists! Less up-front cost to start printing yourself, at least. :)
I prefer Squidies
Hi! Where did you find those small shelves with the small drawers?
what was the base colour thanks

Perhaps a dumb question, but when they say that you can print miniatures in 70mm scale, does that mean that the printer must have a model printing width of at least 70mm?
No the scale is 75mm. Usually its the distans between feet and eyes of the models :)

So how is your Brush Kickstarter going along?
It's just weeks away now :)
Squidmar Miniatures cool. Cant wait.
My take away: Everything can be anything. Just not anywhere.
I could have sworn most D&D minis were in 28mm scale.
The wanderer kinda looks like stryder...lol
Kind of 😂
Just yesterday i struggled to paint claws and horns and boney crests of a war hydra ^^; (besides, they ended up way worse than yours :-| )
Well, as usual, nice video!
This is one of the times I kick myself for not having a 3d printer or knowing someone who does.
