Your videos are great! As someone who isn’t good at painting, I’m still always left with the feeling that what you’re doing is achievable for me too, at some point. It’s inspiring. Many thanks!
Haven't painted in over a decade and was looking for something that can yield quality results with as few steps/materials as possible. Outstanding technique - my Predator tank turned out perfect, thank you!
You are a true painting god! Your painting style seems easy to implement and it seems really fun to paint the miniatures with. Thanks again for that! Your videos are a real enrichment!
Awesome video! I think the Leviathan made the perfect example for it working on large flat panels. Thank you for the video, you're quickly becoming my favorite tutorial videos.
Really cool of you to show of your "regular" paint scheme on the dreadnought. Personally, I think I would prefer the drybrushed look on the dreadnought. The result looks great regardless!
Cheers man! Hopefully this video will help you tackle something bigger soon! Glad I can help you as you start out in this amazing hobby, if you have any questions, let me know!
Very cool. Love this colour scheme for these filthy traitors. Already committed to 4 Legions so far. But Sons of Horus and Blood Angels are the next on my list to paint up. Loving these Heresy videos. Keep em coming,
Today I learned that apparently different materials will react to paint differently. I knew that already, but I figured that the primer on top of the resin would deal with the porous nature of that material. I take that this is of more obvious of a problem with contrast paints and washes than it is with more traditional acrylic paint? I haven't worked with resin models too much, but from what I have done has me very happy that GW is moving more and more of the Heresy line into plastic.
Ye I’d recommend avoiding them as much as possible. They can be a pain. Mostly just the fogeworld resin. Other companies print some beautiful models and busts in resin and there amazing.
I get the contrast, instead of that I'll almost do a zenithal or dry brush paint job with lupercal green followed by SoH green and like you said it absolutely makes a difference just layering up those paints just to get the difference in contrasts
Great looking dread! They're one of my favorite units. Had similar issues painting my own leviathan. Played my game against the Thousand Sons. We only got in 2 turns but I'm sorry to say I was down 2-0. My terminators did their job though. Assaulted by two of his squads. I lost one man but caused both his units to break and run in return. Had a lot of fun.
Hey mate How would you suggest getting a flatter greyish silver on walkers if you're painting Iron Warriors? With my Infantry I'm doing the leadbelcher prime, leadbelcher dry, agrax But with things like dreadnoughts and tanks you usually have the underbody bits, like joins on legs and treads, be leadbelcher. It might look a bit plain if I have a contemptor or leviathan or spartan that is just leadbelcher all over so what would you recommend to make the body stand out on top of the internal joints and guns?
Nope no varnish’s. I don’t really like the finish from varnish. I find the pigments hold well enough by them selves. Having said that I don’t really put my modles in cases or anything so I can’t really say that the best way to do it.
This is a great video, definitely makes these big models feel less intimidating. If you weren't using contrast would you recommend Lupical Green as the base color before the layering stage? I was trying to do a non speed painting version using your Sons of Horus scheme but I wasn't sure what base color to use
I can vouch for this, a quick way to speed paint this is through dry brushing, so I'd prime black, dry brush lupercal green leaving the black in the darkest places, then I'd dry brush SoH green making sure that the black and some of that lupercal green can be seen in shades areas on the miniatures. Use more of a stippling motion as well for the areas that will be brightest too
@@davidbradshaw3118 Awesome thank you very much for the advice! I'm always looking for tips so I greatly appreciate it. I've taken to painting my primaris in these styles then to practice edge highlights or regular highlights. Stippling is newer to me and while I've done a little intentional dry brushing it's still new to me I'm a bit slow on the learning but I appreciate any tips someone is willing to give
Hi I love your bases on these! Do you have a tutorial or recipe? I tried to find it in all your videos, even the bases one, but couldnt find one. These match the art from the Age of Darkness stuff so perfectly! Thank you! Awesome channel!
Hi there I’m fairly new to Warhammer and I’ve watched your sons of Horus mkvI video too. I’ve been wondering what is the purpose of applying the. Contrast and then the layer paint for the main colour, could you not just use multiple layers of the layer paint. Please advise thanks
You for sure could. The difference would be time. I did a video a few weeks ago using normal paints to base coat and then contrast paints to basecoats and the results were crazy so my way is designed to help you get stuff painted much faster. So you stand a chance to getting an army done.
Thanks so much man! I generally don’t, I think it ruins the effect of the pigment powder so I’m just careful about not putting too much pigment powder where I would be handling the models for playing etc! Ps, the shade layer sort of acts like a seal for the paint anyway if you were asking about the paint rather than the powder!
I've been working on the javelin recently and didn't cop that the resin being porous was the reason the Contrast wasn't behaving. Should have waited for this video! 😅
Your terradon turquoise is a lot darker than mine. Did you mix it with something? That dark colour is much better than the out of bottle colour I seem to get

I had a question about the contrast paint Imperial Fist: if I wanted that yellow to look a bit warmer, which primer should I pick? I heard Wraithbone is a good pick but I'm not sure if it would help that much...
Thanks so much man, appreciate that. I'm waiting for the chaos team to come out separately to do a video on them but I'll be covering the chaos cultists soon!
I find adding a varnish spray changes the look of the weathering powder too much so personally I don't use it! The powder isn't really where your hands will pick up the model so as long as you're aware of it, you shouldn't have too many issues with it coming off!
Hey, I go in to more detail about weathering powders in this video th-cam.com/video/g4G2i_RhFpg/w-d-xo.html but basically they stay on as long as they're not in an area where you'll be touching the model a lot. Some people use spray varnish to hold it in place but to me, it ruins the powder/dust effect so I avoid it!
Your videos are great! As someone who isn’t good at painting, I’m still always left with the feeling that what you’re doing is achievable for me too, at some point. It’s inspiring. Many thanks!
That’s very kind thank you.
Your general technique is soooo good. Helped me a lot even after 3 years of hobby.
That’s really great to read. Glad The videos are helping pal.

That’s so kind of you to say. Thank you so much.
This is how I do my models with contrast. Works for me. Great to see how you go at it too.
That's awesome to hear! Great minds think alike haha
Fantastic work! I love the contrast of the green and red/orange base
Thanks so much pal, they do work really well together! Cheers for the comment, and for watching!
Thanks for sharing this video with us. The Dreadnought looks great. Look forward to the next video.
You're very welcome, glad you enjoyed it! Hope you like the next video too!
Another amazing video. Keep them coming! It is incredible what can quickly be achieved with contrast/speed paints.
Have a great week!
Thanks so much Peps, really appreciate the support as always! Hope you have a great week too and achieve all your goals!

I think so to. Put in by no means disappointed by this beats.
Looking amazing! Ive Never painted a model this big yet cuz new to modelling and all hope you continue these helpful tips and tricks
Cheers man! Hopefully this video will help you tackle something bigger soon! Glad I can help you as you start out in this amazing hobby, if you have any questions, let me know!
As long as the support is there I shall make videos forever.

Thanks so much! Appreciate the comment and glad the tutorial worked out!
Brother there is no illusion here ur paint jobs are always amazing such an inspiration well done keep them coming brother
To kind as always pal.
I only speak the truth 💯%
I get the contrast, instead of that I'll almost do a zenithal or dry brush paint job with lupercal green followed by SoH green and like you said it absolutely makes a difference just layering up those paints just to get the difference in contrasts
Yep the drybrush method was in my other video. Both are valid and I like both.
Great looking dread! They're one of my favorite units. Had similar issues painting my own leviathan. Played my game against the Thousand Sons. We only got in 2 turns but I'm sorry to say I was down 2-0. My terminators did their job though. Assaulted by two of his squads. I lost one man but caused both his units to break and run in return.

That sounds ace. Haven’t played the new edition yet. Very much looking forward to it.
Another great video, thanks for making these. Any chance of doing the opposite also and painting an infantry model with the stippling technique?
I do indeed have intentions of doing that video. So no worries there.
I've been using this strat, but drybrushing on the layer paint and it's workin real well 👌🏿
Great idea man! Glad it's working out for you and cheers for the comment!
Hey mate
How would you suggest getting a flatter greyish silver on walkers if you're painting Iron Warriors?
With my Infantry I'm doing the leadbelcher prime, leadbelcher dry, agrax
But with things like dreadnoughts and tanks you usually have the underbody bits, like joins on legs and treads, be leadbelcher. It might look a bit plain if I have a contemptor or leviathan or spartan that is just leadbelcher all over so what would you recommend to make the body stand out on top of the internal joints and guns?
I would leave all the under parts of mostly silver models black if I was doing it myself. Just to break up all the colours. You know what I mean?
Great stuff Andy
Cheers pal.
Loving these. With Dark Angels, Iron Hands, and Raven Guard as methods of painting black what do you recommend for Justaerin/Reavers to go with SoH?
I think you can chose what ever style you like the most and go with that. Just Be consistent and they will look great.
Love the video, would you undercoat any of the tanks the same way you did with this model?
You can chose what method you want for your tanks. This it the drybrush video.
Hey, awesome job! Can you possibly show us how to do Luna Wolves paint scheme? Trying to make a loyalist force.
I’ve had so many requests for that. I just need to find the time.
Good job as usual 🙂Are you using any varnish to set the pigment powder ? Great video thanks 👍
Nope no varnish’s. I don’t really like the finish from varnish. I find the pigments hold well enough by them selves. Having said that I don’t really put my modles in cases or anything so I can’t really say that the best way to do it.

Yep lupical green in place of terredon would work perfectly.

@@MediocreHobbies Thank you, I was painting a primaris but wasn't to sure so I went with the speed painting version still, but still good to know
@@ovan2190 for edge highlights quickly you can use a bright colour and dry brush the edge finely too!
Stunning video as per usual
Thanks so much pal

The more you know. Beautiful model. Hope it tuned out ok.
Great video I’m getting my 2 on Saturday I hope gonna do sons of Horus and my blessed ultra marines , cheers phil .
Thanks for the comment Phil! Sons of Horus and Ultramarines...both excellent choices! Let me know if you have any questions and enjoy working on them!
Amazing tutorial, thank you!
Thanks so much, really appreciate that :)
Thanks, going to check out your World Eaters Video!
Awesome, hope you enjoy it!
Your terradon turquoise is a lot darker than mine. Did you mix it with something? That dark colour is much better than the out of bottle colour I seem to get
Nope straight out of the pot.
Thank you for the video! Contrast Leviathan is so good finally have something other then people just just saying buy a airbrush lol

Haha how long have you had yours for? :D It is this easy, I promise-no camera trickery involved!
Wonderful video as always. Any plans for Killteam Moroch videos? At least the chaos team?

@@MediocreHobbies sweet! Makes sense
How did you fix the weathering powder in place? Varnish spray?
I find adding a varnish spray changes the look of the weathering powder too much so personally I don't use it! The powder isn't really where your hands will pick up the model so as long as you're aware of it, you shouldn't have too many issues with it coming off!
How exactly does the weathering powder work? You just dab it on and it stays? I always wondered how it doesn’t just shake off lol
Hey, I go in to more detail about weathering powders in this video th-cam.com/video/g4G2i_RhFpg/w-d-xo.html but basically they stay on as long as they're not in an area where you'll be touching the model a lot.

@@MediocreHobbies thanks! I’ll check out the video
Resin: the Porous Heresy!
Hahhaha yup
Hey, do you think your scheme will work on a legionis imperialis marine? Hope so 😂
I’d remove a few steps based on size but yes it will 😄
You're making me want to switch gears and do SoH instead of AL.
I had no intention of painting SoH until I tried out the paint scheme and fell in love :D Hope this doesn't disrupt your plans too much!
Muy guapo 🙌
Thank you!
Your reddit post pointed the way here
Great to hear that, hope you enjoyed it!
Forge World really does need to get its collective finger out and switch to 3d printing. Resin is the devils work.
Agreed. Not sure 3D printing is where they will chose to go. Probably just love it all over to plastics.
