I've been involved in the hobby for 34 years and in my opinion Sergio is the greatest miniature painter that I've ever seen. To call him a painter doesn't even begin to do his level of artistry justice. He doesn't paint, he uses the miniature as a canvas that can describe itself. Simply astonishing.
You brought a smile to my face, thank you very much. I have always tried to create my own style, and for many years I have tried to break with the dogmas of the sector. I always try to show that there is room for everything I explain and that they are not nonsense, although I explain them in a very close way and with all my illusion. What matters most to me is to convey the concept of enjoying painting without stress and without mistakes, for me it is a wonderful hobby and I want to share and help more people to enter and thus to demonstrate that there are many of us who love this concept of art. As you said, for me it is a 3d canvas with which I do my painting. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, I hope to continue inspiring you.
Very well said. Though there are a few who I would put in the same category of artists. I recall Marko and Aleksandra from Belgrad (craftworld studios) who have a very distingushed style (and both are actually traditional arts masters if my memory serves me well). And there are some more. I really like the artist part of playing properly with colors. It´s actually funny: My canvas game is getting better when painting miniatures, and my miniature game gets better by painting on canvas.
My goodness his precision with the air brush is amazing . I've only been in the hobby 6 months so I stink if I tried to airbrush that precise would be a big splatter mess. This is prolly the nicest painting video over ever seen
Добрый день! Есть какие-то руководства как раскрашивать подобные фигурки? Интересует какой-то признанный сообществом гайд. Интересуют модели Warhammer 40k и Warhammer: Fantasy Battle
Watching artists such as yourself has really helped me level up my painting. I'll be forever grateful to all the small things that have allowed me to improve, and each time you reveal more from your vast arsenal of techniques.
I share here these videos and in my online academy all my knowledge, colors, techniques with detailed explanations. Take a look and see if you like it even more :D
Very amazing video. If you just paint and have this video open while you are painting, it feels like you don't paint alone. You can still focus and the great music is very nicely calm but also dreamy. It is a very nice vibe for painting.
I get to the point in the vid where Sergio has painted a model better than I could ever dream of doing in a million years, then I check and see that only 1/4 of the video has passed :D incredible work, really inspiring
You are a world class artisan. A true master of your craft. Your attention to detail and precision are always spot on and you make it look incredibly easy. There’s so much going on.
Words do not do this video any justice...i can only express how amazed I was to watch this work of art come alive in 25 minutes. The only way to say how impressed I am with your painting technique is to subscribe to you sir! I look forward to future videos.
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this video. Your brush control and technical application of color is inspiring. I'm going to paint that model soon and hope to tap into a portion of this wonderful piece.
My favourite part about this is how yiu can see the brushstrokes. A lot of high level painters go for an impossibly clean look, so it's good to see one of the best painters in the world doing it like this. It makes it feel a lot more doable when you see the (very minor!) flaws. One thing i would reccomend though is using a mix of purple, yellow and white for the whites of the eyes; it adds more life to a mini without it looking bloodshot. Then just add a dark colour for the pupil and a tiny dot of white.
I am always looking for ways to evolve my own style of painting, called "capibases" by my students, it is a meme that is still in force after more than 8 years and sharing with all my community. Welcome to the "capibases".
Qué maravilla, Sergio! Yo estoy muy metido en el lore de WH pero nunca he pintado nada jejeje he comprado miniaturas y empiezo en breve a pintar en serio. He visto algunos de tus videos y te sigo para ir aprendiendo. Tienes cursos, patreon, consejos... para los que empiezan desde cero? Porque he visto mucho pero es en plan OSL, NMM... pero nada de bases. Un saludo!
It s incredible that not so sharp edge line on hands and face mask when the work is finished be so perfect in the final result... I try always to do very sharp and thin line in edge lighting and probably I wrong . The final result is so awesome
An amazing miniature, very well done. I must say that Ultramarines pauldron gold using non metallic paint is incredible. Ill have to search your other videos to see if you teach that!
Bravo Sergio, Bravo!! Such an exquisite choice of colors and true passion behind every brush stroke. You can see it behind every touch of the brush and placement. You are truly an amazing painter and artist! You knocked it out of the park.
No lo conocia...solo por este video tienes mi subscripcion...es ver pintar un cuadro...no una miniatura...simplemente arte...madre mia tengo 40 tacos...y ojala hubiera pintado yo asi...mi mephisto y mi dante d 2@ edicion...q recuerdos...
May I just say as a 30-40k painter for over 25years. This was a joy to watch! The skill on display here takes a certain apreciation. Because man, you made that astartes come to life. And you made it look effortless. Absolutely masterful Sergio. 👌
@@Sergiocalvominiatures your painting style is unrivalled Sergio! Over 25 years I have gone from box art style, to my now prefered grimdark. Painting these things is a love of labor. But it has been a constant joy to do over the decades. But man you are something else lol
Absolutely amazing! I wish i knew what paints you were using, then i would have half a chance to follow along and try and get somewhere near this good a result.
Looking at this realy says i need to take my sweet time with painting and using the right brush insted of just rushing. Just started from last december
I've watched this and re-watched this so many times! It's so good. When you bring the air brush back out - are you post-shading with like a magenta colour ink? Would this work with green dark angels do you think? Thanks!
Hola 👋🏻👋🏻,. Lo primero,es alucinante,me deja loco, he visto ,los directos en twich. Los 3 ,y son alucinantes ,Verte,y son largos, JAJAJAJA. De verdad,lo que a un servidor,le encanta,son los terrenos que las hacés,👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. Un saludo 💯 y GRACIAS 👍🏼
Admirable work Sergio, I applaud you and subbed instantly! I would like to know which lamps do you use for painting. I have the arch light from GSW, but your setup seems 10 times lighter.

It’s easy to forget how small that Space Marine is while viewing it from up close, and seeing how much detail he’s painting onto it.
I hope you like it and I hope you are surprised by the detail in my figures :D
The amount of texture you give to the details with your paintstyle is amazing

This has inspired me to pick up my brushes and put them in the bin
Bravo!! Makes me feel like I'm painting my minis with wax crayons when I see this guy in action
😂
Ouch! :P
Exactly
😂 same
Very amazing video. If you just paint and have this video open while you are painting, it feels like you don't paint alone. You can still focus and the great music is very nicely calm but also dreamy.
It is a very nice vibe for painting.
Sergio is, in my opinion, the GOAT of miniature painting. If I can only achieve 10% of his level, I can call myself a great miniature painter.
Agreed, and if not, he's on the short list. I like Richard Grey as well, but they have different styles, so it's pick your poison.
I'm teaching a lot of students, if your goal is to improve, go ahead with my tutorials on Patreon :D
Goat make my favorite milks. In my country we make cheese from them milks

This is not only relaxing to watch, but boy, what beautiful work.
I only offer the best, and always looking for improvement :D

brutalisimo, esto son los videos que me encantan a mi, 30 minutitos todo perfectamente realizado, da gusto verlo, mas asi por favor. muchas gracias.
Agradezco que lo valores, cuidamos cada aspecto, gracias!!! :D

Hay brother, just curious but why don't you use metallic paints? Your NMM is beyond awesome, but I was just wondering. 🤘👍
É incrível como a pintura da um aspecto de volume causando um sensação 3d dando vida a obra

Stunning talent.
Detail is off the charts.
Michelangelo used marble, leonardo used canvas and Sergio uses plastic miniatures, simply stunning.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Really inspiring. I don't paint minis but this technique transcends the hobby.
Thanks!
this is incredible, bravo!
simply incredible 🖌

Another brilliant mini by the #1 painter imho. Mindblowing stuff
WOW!!!! should I tag your comment?
Te acabo de descubrir mientras veo de meterme en este mundito fascinante y épico de Warhammer, sos un crá loco, suscrito!
Llegaste al lugar adecuado :P
It s incredible that not so sharp edge line on hands and face mask when the work is finished be so perfect in the final result... I try always to do very sharp and thin line in edge lighting and probably I wrong . The final result is so awesome
If you see it in your hands, you'd be surprised how fine it is, there's a lot of magic in those lines :D
The best painter and the best inspiration I could ask for to paint the 40K Leviathan box I bought today! Thank you as always Sergio!😃♥
Thanks! I will try to paint some other figures from the box! :D
An amazing miniature, very well done. I must say that Ultramarines pauldron gold using non metallic paint is incredible. Ill have to search your other videos to see if you teach that!
I teach painting and show all the colors and materials in our painting guides and video tutorials in the online academy.
Simply looking at you work recharges my hobby batteries to the max ❤❤❤
YESSSSS!!! :D thank you!
Bravo Sergio, Bravo!! Such an exquisite choice of colors and true passion behind every brush stroke. You can see it behind every touch of the brush and placement. You are truly an amazing painter and artist! You knocked it out of the park.
Thank you, I hope you managed to captivate for a few minutes with my painting. I hope to continue surprising you in the next videos
WHAT!!?? Bro, that is insane! You are a master craftsman, no doubt!
PERFECTO. No puedo definirlo mejor. Me has puesto los dientes muy largos con esta mini!! 😍😍
No sufras mas, vente a uno de mis cursos donde enseño todo mi conocimiento :D

Simplesmente incrível, mano. Espero um dia ser tão bom a pintar como o senhor

helmet is by far best part 😊

If you've ever wondered where the modern-day equivalents of Michelangelo's are, they're right here.
Hi Sergio what are blue base colors. This is beyond beautiful
Insane! Subscribed
Most impressive. I'm speechless.
Sergio, you're a beast with that brush! Awesome work.
Beast mode always ON :P , thank you!!!!
Como hacer de un teniente una verdadera ida de olla, eres muuuy grande!!!
A topeeeee!!!!! Me alegro que te encante :D
Que genio!!!, dios mío. Cuanto tiempo te llevó realizar esta mini, espectacular como siempre!
Muchas gracias!!! Seguiré pintando mas y mejor! :D
En Septiembre voy a uno de tus Workshops ya verdad es que viendo esto me da hasta vértigo...
Eres un maestro
Veras lo bien que te lo vas a pasar!!! Te prometo que vas a salir con una sonrisa en la boca
Sergio eres una fuente inagotable de inspiración y envidia a partes iguales 😂
Seguiré trabajando y pintando para traer mas y mejor contenido :D
God tier skill bro!
Maravilloso se queda corto, un Marine a nivel arte.
Siempre se quedan cortos, haremos mas videos :P
There’s something so satisfying about watching someone be REALLY good at something.
Glad you find it satisfactory :D
Amazing precission
I've watched this and re-watched this so many times! It's so good.
When you bring the air brush back out - are you post-shading with like a magenta colour ink? Would this work with green dark angels do you think? Thanks!
Do a test. It may depend on the green color you have.
There's nothing like watching genius perform to a great soundtrack. Bravo, Maestro. 😊
wow! speechless!
increible resultado, mas con una escala tan pequeña. En el video se ve gigante, pero la figura solo mide 4 cm aprox, de pies a cabeza
siiiiii :D 32mm
omg, this is amazing!
Fantastic, would bei nice to see a Grey Knight painted from you. Greetz
Very Richard Corben-esque, really well done.
This is amazing. Out of curiosity, what brush are you using?
At least after seeing we already know who is winning the next golden demon! Incredible work as always!
WOW! should I tag your comment?
@@Sergiocalvominiatures you're very welcome to if you want to! Would be great to see if I'm right when the time comes!

I love your job! Please paint a Blightlord Terminator. I would like to know your choices for one of them, as I love Death Guard.

As this model is singular and heroic it really does cry out for attentive painting.
Undoubtedly, the best of the new box.

I've said it a million f****** times this guy is the van Gogh of miniatures
❤️
I love the model. No question he's a master at painting miniatures but....isnt 4th legions colors supposed to be gun metal grey and yellow?
This looks amazing. Could you please tell me what colors you used to paint the gold trim on the shoulders?
All these colors will be available in our painting guides in the online academy in a short time.
Always a sharp inhale whenever I see barrel drilling
