- Contrast vs Classic! The Clash of the ages!
Okay it's not a clash but it is a fun experiment to see just how awesome Contrast+ is as well as how fun it is to occasionally go back to my roots of Classic Painting! Check it out on these Blood Angels Heavy Intercessors who were sent to me for free by Games Workshop as part of the Strike Force Agastus Boxset!

You're somehow the only person I've seen use a large amount of contrast without having any blotchy spots. You're like a wizard
I smell witchcraft!
He turned me into a newt!.......I got better
You need to apply a shit ton and move it around, look up "The SECRET CONTRAST PAINT TECHNIQUE" by Juan Hidalgo
Juan Hidalgo is the contrast master.
If your interested in seeing really high quality contrast painting I'd suggest his channel.
I wasn't big on contrast paints initially because of exactly this reason...then I found the warhipster and learned how to properly use them and now my classic layer paints give me dirty looks when they see me
Would love to see the othere chapters compared this way. Really interesting to see the differences. Thank you for another epic video!
Dark Angels would also be awesome to see! I appreciate all that you do! Fantastic stuff!
Dyou know I had this exact same idea!
@@Warhipster I had a really good feeling as the idea is exciting! You’re the best!
Loved seeing you do a classic comparison here. I get that it’s not going to be a regular segment or anything, but I really love that you did this for my favourite chapter, the noble IXth 😊
That was awesome mate. I don't have the time to base, layer, shade and highlight and the contrast + method achieves a level of finish that looks amazing.
Thanks for the in depth explanation and demo on a blood angel, I have an entire Leviathan box of them to paint in a few weeks!!
Lobe the channel too, Warhipster is fast becoming my go-to for hints and tips.
The difference in tone between the two is interesting and relevant. Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely! The interesting thing for me was the idea of doing the Firstborn the Classic way and then the Contrast+ way for Primaris boys. A subtle yet clear indicator of age and wear and tear between the two!
Great video. I like the Contrast one more, but I do like those black recess lines on the Classic.
I've painted my Blood Angels in a mix of oldschool dipping and the newer versions with the classic method, but I've decided to try my new Leviathan marines with your contrast tutorials. Wish me luck :)
First of all...I love them both! However, the way the panel lines and recesses pop with that classic method is what I love...wonder if it'd work to do something similar with the contrast method? Either way I think I have to start playing 40k now and get me some blood angels!
Love to see more Classic painting!
Absolutely interesting and useful video. thank you.
Man, huge respect to you for these vids. I have both DA and BA in my pile of shame, and i was mulling over for a long time how I should do it: contrast or classic. No I think I will do DA with Caliban Green for this menacing look, but BA through contrast for more warmer feel
Huge thanks!
Great idea for a video, I would love to see you do other chapters like Space Wolves or Salamanders (Not just because those are the chapters I have)
i like this format, gives me a different perspective on how i want to end up my painting the marines.
Very interesting comparison about the two approaches, intermediate phases, and results.
I'm more inclined towards the Contrast+ recipe used for the Kruleboyz skareshields, with just Blood Angels Red, highlight (orange+yellow contrast is my favourite trick), and diluted Flesh Tearers Red glaze, as it gives a rich, vibrant red with just enough dark tones to it and very little hassle on edge highlights/transitions.
Also, you want to do black areas fast? Vallejo's Dark Grey and a wash of Nuln Oil, it's almost magic.
This was awesome. Dark angels and black templars would be good to see
Please don't regard this as a negative comment, it really isn't! But I'd like to show you my appreciation in your review of the Vallejo Xpress and Speed Paints 2.0 unbiasly. I know you are supported by Games Workshop, and I don't know you personally, so it'd be easy to assume you'd disregard the other paints or say something negative just to keep in good graces with GW, but you didn't. You justifiably showed off the negatives in them (reactivations in Army Painter) and admitted the positives and what you liked about them (Vallejo Xpress). Thank you for having a good enough character to show us fans other options available and hear and understand why you prefer Contrast Paints to them. Cheers!
You're very welcome buddy! The only thing I would say is, I make a point of not signing anything that ties me into a relationship that forces me to be positive to a fault. It's not the right thing for me and it wouldn't be the right thing for all of you! Ultimately I just want you guys to see stuff and how it works and then in anyway I can help you paint your miniatures and love what you do as much as I love what I do. I was sent the Army Painter stuff just as I have been sent GW Stuff. I'm currently writing a video that goes through all 3 of them shows the weaknesses of the style of painting as it is. and then asks the question of who are these things right for. Rather than which one is best. It's something I think is often lacking from Wargaming content and I do my best to try to be that voice!
I like the darker red.
Great to see this type of comparison Josh. Was there a significant difference in the time it took to do each one? Personally I find a mixture of techniques works best for me - Contrast works brilliantly on textured surfaces, but for large areas or awkward colours I revert to classic
I have a TON of bloody rose SOB to paint. I've done a few in the classic way but it just takes too long and I don't have that kind of time any more. The contrast+ way here would work perfect for them and should be nice and quick.
Great tutorial! Have you given it a try with Blood Angels Red as a first coat and, on top of that, Flesh Tearers Red? Would be a great combo for a darker red. Adding in some recess shading, and I think I have my recipe for my BAs!
Excellent paint jobs. I honestly prefer the more cold tone of the classic paint because it looks a bit more grimdark, whereas the warmth of the contrast makes me feel like its something out of a comic book. To each their own though they both look great!
Your videos are awesome. Any chance you will paint with contras+ mangler swuiggs or roggut troggots in future?
nice video. I wantet to try painting one of my ultra marines with contrast aswell. In Talassar blue to be exact. But every edge highlight i put over the contrast paint looks a bit pink? i dont even know how something like this can happen xD
Can I ask, how do you manage to get the blood angel shoulder pauldrons on so cleanly?
Hey Mate, I just found your Video and the Contrast Version looks amazing. What about Deathwatch or Thousand Sons Comparisson for any future Video of yours?
The Contrast+ job looks like the marine just suited up before deploying. The Classic style makes it looks like he's been in a few small scale skirmishes.
I always thought you had like 150k subs or something. I have been subbed for that long I was under the assumption! Criminal you don’t have 100k!
I'm slowly climbing there!
how to you get the mephiston red paint 100% even on the whole modell? there is no just so little spot that looks like it got less paint than others.
One major thing with the contrast + method, what about cleanup of mistakes? Good look getting the same tone to fix a mistake.
Out of curiosity, why do you prefer Iron Warriors over Leadbelcher for so much of your metallic work?
Is grey seer a must here? would anything else work to the same effect?
How do you save your brushes from getting destroyed by the contrast, metallics and washes?
Think both look great. Difficult to choose between them.
Warhipster great video and very helpful as I’m a BA player!
That desk light you mentioned looks amazing but is it available to Americans too?
Certainly is!
Will ask as usual sir..The hnew army painter speed paints. I know you reviewed them but whats yoru take on the metallics? Thinking they would be great on all of our vehicles and buildings. GW doesnt have any metallic contrasts and I will say one of the things i dislike most is all the metal works lol
Wooo! 4k!!
🔥🔥🔥
I feel like the biggest difference comes from the Agrax Earthshade step.
Un grand merci. très pédagogique. Je prefere la méthode classique
Could you do one for dark angels?
Yeah, i did find the temperature difference quite interesting
Which one is easier to paint for a beginner?
I feel like there's two answers to this question. Long term or short term. I think learning both recipes is a really good springboard for all beginners as one way teaches you how to paint bits you can't necessarily do with contrast like Metallics and the other teaches you how to practice getting that smooth coat on wider surfaces like armour. I learnt how to paint doing the classic way many many years ago. IS that right now? I'm not sure it is. Ultimately having a go is the best way to learn!
This is the question I am facing atm.
Going to start painting my Kruleboyz Army and I have to decide how to paint them.
I just don‘t like the ghostly/shiny effect contrast creates.
Matte Varnish.
@@ml6158 does it take away the effect and make it look like a "classic" paint job? would be great.
I quite like the contrast method over the classic. Just seems… cleaner. And not for the fact it’s actually cleaner😂
Would love to see a comparison of lots more models. Chaos Knights, Kruleboyz, Stormcast Eternals etc.
I think the contrast one looks richer, but Ironcially has less contrast than the classic method
Black Legion covers better than Abaddon Black.......
I don't see any difference between the 2 models.
The classic one seems better for Fleshtearers actually or Wordbearers
