4 Amazing Battle Damage Techniques for your Warhammer | 40K | Duncan Rhodes

- Sometimes, you might finish a model and think that it looks just a bit too clean. Freshly polished armour, gleaming paintwork - these things look great but sometimes you might want that warrior to look like he's seen some action. He may be a veteran and you want him to look the part, and that's what this video is all about!
In this video we take a painted miniature from Games Workshop's Warhammer 40,000 and show you how you can take him to hell and back.
In this video we cover a variety of techniques that you can use to simulate damage to your troops. Whilst we use a Space Marine (Space Wolves Intercessor) for our example, the methods used are approached in such a way so as to focus on the technique rather than the particular colours so as to make this applicable to any miniature. We cover this in four segments:
1. Chipping the paint using paint, creating the optical illusion of chips and scratches etched in the armour.
2. Placing bullet holes by literally drilling and carving them into the model.
3. Adding dust kicked up around the warrior's feet by making use of weathering pigments.
4. Creating scars and wounds on the soldier's flesh.
These techniques are all great fun to use and can we used on a wide variety of miniatures from almost any game system or miniatures you like even tanks!
We hope you guys enjoy this one and remember, if you haven't already, check out our Academy over at www.duncanrhodes.com where we have almost 350, yes 350, full, indepth tutorials on there including a huge 15 part Fundamentals of Miniature Painting course included in the membership.

- Out of four techniques the scars and wound is the new for me, thanks for the tips and tricks
Thanks :-) And it's our pleasure
20:45 Duncan noticed you didn't use 2 thin coats and is now coming for you
What Color would use on dark angels for the chipping?
I see what you did there
@@HellFish907maybe Rhinox Hide? That’s a standard go to. Would certainly look great with the Dark Angel’s dark green armor.
Three years ago, I thought it would be fun to try the warhammer 40k tabletop game... bought a miniature boxed set, and when I got home, was completely dismayed because I realized they weren't already painted! Couldn't return it, because it was opened, so I threw it in the garbage. Brother-in-law came by right after, and pulled the box out and showed me the youtube channel and started watching your tutorials. So basically, to make a short story long, thank you so much, for all of your tutorials! They are so educational, in more ways than one, because I don't know about other people, but I would literally panic, if I screwed up on painting something, but your calm attitude, (as well as your solutions to common screw ups) always helps me achieve the results I want. Thank you again, so much! Just bought Mortarion so going to rewatch your tutorial and get to it! Maybe even add some battle damage, too!
This is just like watching Bob Ross, you feel he messed up, but then as he goes along, the final product looks amazing. As a new painter, these videos are a real help.
Awesome, glad they help :-)
Awesome as always lord Duncan
Any chance we will see an imperial knight tutorial here or on the academy? Kitbashing or even your own house griffith?
Much appreciated, your tutorials are amazing nonetheless
Thanks for the kind words. We do have a couple of full tutorials for Imperial Knights over at the Academy. House Griffith is definitely on the cards
You can use all the same damage/weathering effects on knights, minus the wounds n stuff unless ur doing chaos knights and they have fleshy bits.
Henry Steele of Cult of Paint once said that weathering is a necessary skill for applying decals. And he was right. A little weathering goes a long way to masking the fact that those decals never seem to go on perfectly. But you can use those imperfections. They're perfect little guidelines for where to put your chips!
Great advice for sure
Perfect timing on this one, Duncan! I'm just about to start my Horus Heresy themed 40k world eaters, and this should really help give some interesting variation and make them come to life. Really loved the face wounding, have never seen someone do that before!
Awesome. This will lend itself to World Eaters perfectly.
Great tried and true although “scary” techniques, especially the bullet holes, which will work great for Battletech. Only Duncan would do this flawlessly to such a pristine paint job!
I have just started a necron army and was looking for ways to weather their armor. Your video is god send. Always a joy to watch you as a beginner painter ❤
Awesome, thank you .We are really glad we can help 😊
I find for the dust step rather than a powder I like to use a really thinned down version of the same texture paste I use for painting the base! At least with the AK versions, it works really well once it dries, and you don't have to worry about the colors not being right XD
This just upgraded my painting skills. Never had the confidence to paint a marine but my first one looks incredible thanks to this!
That's awesome. We are glad to help!
Subtle but effective! Knocked it out of the park again, Duncan!
I've just started to try and add weathering and battle damage. This is going to be so helpful, thanks Duncan!
Nice video. Thanks Duncan! I have done the methods for impacts from rounds and chipping, not the scars and wounds though. After watching I think I feel more confident about experimenting with those. Thank you again for doing this!
Thank you for the hard work and skill you put forward. It has really elevated my painting
Thank you Duncan, this was a great video. I really loved the bullet holes and battle damage on the armour.
I just started painting Warhammer minis a couple months back, and I’ve gotta say that this is by far my favorite channel to get painting tips from. I’ve learned so much in a short span of time thanks to you Duncan. Much appreciation sir 🙏
Wow, thank you! We're glad we could help.
Love it! He looks so HARDCORE!
I’m surprised you didn’t do this video sooner. Thanks for doing it.
This is a super handy video! I have just gotten back into the hobby and Im painting Iron warriors so this will be quite helpful to make them seem more battle worn and weary!
Glad it was helpful!
for chipping, Id go black vs metallic because it wont show up on the iron warriors armor ya know? Then maybe a mid-light tone powder/paint for dust effects
Perfect timing, just getting into the thick of painting my first primaris space wolves!
Awesome!
Thank you mate, some useful stuff in this video, thank you..
So many new ideas! Wow!
You read my mind, just the video I had been browsing for 😁
Very cool tutorial! And music is gorgeous !
Awesome! I was just thinking about this step for my Legionaires :)
awesomely useful. Thanks mate :)
Love the techniques! I usually do it before painting like you said, but something I've found helps sell the bullet holes is putting some putty in the hole and then squishing it down withe back of a brush/bit of wire. If the putty is a little dry when you do it, it makes a nice crusty ridge around the hole.
Thanks this is very helpful 😊
I was looking for a video like this
Glad it was helpful!
Great Vid. the wound was excellent
Nice timing ⏱️ 😊👍🏽
looking forward to using this advice for the Horus Heresy boxset I just got and the World Eaters box I'm about to get - thank you!
Excellent video!
I think the silver inside the impact can be lore accurate. It's 'power armor', which means it should have systems beneath the armor plate that might get exposed from a deep enough shot :)
Who care baout lore accurate, rule of cool bro.
Amazing job, expecially bullets ' holes on the armour, normally when I try to make a Scar I give a very thin line of Charred Brown, then add dark flesh , just to highlight the mark.
Awesome as always! Lord Duncan, can we have more asoiaf tutorials?
Great tutorial!
Would love to see tips on applying major damage. My Wolves keep getting shot off the board by my mate's Necrons and I should probably represent that on the model. 😆
If you’re fighting Nebrons, you could try making bullet holes that glow green. Like the gauss weapons leaving a residue.
Great video 👍🏻
Thanks 👍
I do this in a particular order with my Astartes models.
Rank and file Legionaries ✅️ + weathering
Captains, Champions or and named models ✅️ (but to a far lesser extent, and more fine tuned, and no weathering at all except the boots) to bring some pop to them.
Primarchs ❌️.
Paint them as flawless as possible, to really make these guys pop. Next to the rest of your army it will really make them stand out.
Awesome as ever Sir Duncan 👏👏
Very awesome. Thanks so much! Only thing I would like to see in addition is how to weather black armor.
Love it ❤
An amazing video once again, the one thing I want to know though is how to do Blast residue/scorching marks on tanks and vehicles.
I want to give my Redemptore dreadnoughts some toughness to them and my tanks looking like they got broadsided by a round
Man, my Night Lords are gonna look GNARLY
Wonderful, useful, and clear ! Thanks a lot ! Do you have done a howto for this space wolf ? I love this gray-blue color
Yesssssss, this is going to be a good one
We hope so lol
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA I certainly was
He's really been through the wars, hasn't he!!
That space marine looks like he just stepped straight out of a clone wars episode ❤
Awesome guide DRPA :)
Guys, any advice on which colour to use for chipping Dark Angels armour? Some kind of light grey or light brown maybe?
Would the pigment fixer work to set the texture paints? I have a few bases of mine seem to come apart after the texture paints dry. Awesome video, as always. Thanks again!!
Hehe... "Youre mine!" - My fav. Paintingchannel on YT.
Hey Duncan! Great weathering tutorial :) Your wolves need som big burly beards! Have you seen Valbjorns beard tutorial on youtube? Probably the beast beard maker using a toothpick!
That poor marine. He been through some sh@#$%. Meh, DEATH TO THE FALSE EMPEROR! Anywho..., thanks for the tips, even veteran painters like me learn a thing or two from your tutorials! Keep it up! Got nothing but love for ya!
It would be awesome if you can do another of these for monsters and beasts. Like a monster that has a burn or scars. I've looked all over and haven't seen anything that helps get that type of effect.
This is so helpful!, but what colours should you use with dark angels armor?
thanks for this Duncan. what colours would you use to chip silver armour?
The weathering over the lower shin armour of the Space Marine and bullet holes effects is a technique I may use on my Intercessors.
Awesome
Hello, nice vidéo, for scratchs I use acrylic pen like Posca. I find it's more easy to control than brush.
See you from France, have a nice day.
Very curious if you recommend doing bullet damage after painting like the tutorial, or if that was just to show us and suggest we should do it before primer spray.
awesome video duncan as always, do you have any tips for battle damage on BA o:
Its the same techniques, just swap the highlight of the chipping to the highlight you've chosen for your BA 👍
Thank you , DRPA .
🐺Loupis Canis .
Thank you too! 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
Really helpful video Duncan thanks so much. Would anyone recommend what colours I should use for chipping/damage on my Black Templar black armour? My main highlight is Thunderhawk blue. Should I use a grey or brown and the highlight with Thunderhawk blue?
I'm sure you've said this before someplace Duncan but what's your favorite 40k army? I'm a guard man myself. Thanks for the great video, I'll be putting some bullet holes in my tanks for sure.
Great video but I have 2 questions if you have time
1: how would you go about chipping and weathering on white armor?
2: or how about weathering in gunmetal?
Youre tutorials are awesome dude!
Thanks. For white armour, I'd use an off black for the chipping and then I'd highlight with a pure white to create the illusion of depth. For weathering in gunmetal, you could do something similar to the bullet holes without using the drill
Really loved the video! Very usefull. But with what colors would you use on a dark green (dark angels) armour ? 🤔🤔
Would this sponge/highlight chipping still work on a painting scheme/style like Tovarion's Ultramarine, Salamander, or Blood Angel?
Lmao what did the Space Wolves do to Duncan!
hey do you think you could do a cadian painting guide ( an update from the last one you did for warhammer tv ) if so that would help alot
Love the video Duncan! Going to implement this on my marines to contrast my Sororitas' eternally pure and clean look that I went for with them.
Question: because I'm insane, I'm painting my custom chapter in Multicam colors; a blend of various greens and browns. Any advice on a highlight for chipping/damage on them? Should I choose just one color that's a "good enough" fit for a highlight and go with that?
It may require a little experimentation to see which colour works, but I'd start with something really neutral that would work with both and see where that leads
@DuncanRhodesDRPA Thanks for the advice! Working on a Castigator at the moment, then I'm going to get back to the Infiltrator squad I was working on. Keep up the videos, they're a great inspiration!
Outside of the different highlight colours, would I change anything in these schemes, for black armoured marines? The only loyalist army I collect are the Deathwatch. Also If I was chipping the silver arm/ DW pauldron, would I change the shade colour?
Hello there,
is there a Video on how to paint that Space Wolf or will there be one coming up?
Thank you for the content!
We did a full painting guide a couple years ago over at the Academy (www.duncanrhodes.com) 😊
Just wondering how you might do scars on something that doesn't have skin coloured skin, say tau, kroot or seraphon?
do you still go for the base flesh colour and toss in a bit of red and tidy up with the flesh highlight or would you try something different say just a darker version of the skin colour to start with
Hey there Mr Duncan. I don't know if you take suggestions from RUclips, but I'd Love to see your take on Craftworld Yme Loc using your paint range. Cheers!
Honestly id love to see more unique battle damage painting methods, Ive tried all this highlighting and glazing stuff but for me it just doesnt hit the spot. I love painting my minis with a flat basecoat and lots of paint chipping and wearing around the edges, similar to how they looked in dawn of war soulstorm!
"Here is how we make the miniature look lite he has been to hell and back." Proceed to paint him in 90's pixel green.
That's a lot of story this single Grey Hunter seemingly went through. I wonder if he will survive long enough to become a Long Fang...
Any chance you'll do some blood bowl models like the Kara Temple Harpies?
Great tips! I will absolutely add some of these techniques to my Salamanders. Which leads me to my question: How do I make scars on their black skin?
The metal bits at the bottom of the bullet holes are 100% lore accurate: they're the bullets stuck in there! :)
What approach do you suggest for really dark grey or black armour?
Any advice for painting chipping/damage on gold armour?
Can I/should I set the dry pigment with matte spray varnish?
Is that the standard Space Wolf colour scheme? Looks a little darker, would be good to have a video on how you painted him up :)
I'm curious if its possible to do similar to the Legions Imperialis models.
It looks great, but I'm always amused by the fact that the go-to colour that people use for damage is a rust colour... on a *ceramic* material.
Always used silver myself
I like to think it's less rust and more a build up of dirt and grime in the damage
Thank you! Chips should be the base armor color
How would you apply this to metallic paints? The base armor color of my space marine chapter is a gun metal silver
What would you suggest for white armour for the chipping and highlighting of said chips?
Use a pure white. I normally never layer white armour in a pure white as you have no where to highlight up to. If you layer with a slight off-white then you can highlight your armour and the chips with a pure white. Hope that helps ☺
I really love the scar tutorial but I have a question.
I paint Salamanders so a fleshy skin tone is not a thing for me.
How do do scars on that Obsidian black skin of a Salamander?
His armour serf is going to have a fit when he gets back to the battle-barge.
Got citadel colour matcha for those colours I don’t have any of those paints
What were the colors for painting this Fenrisian?
Please paint Fulgrim Transfigured! I'd love a good how too
Where xan i find the dust dry brush method?
I'm curious would these effects work well with 40k orks ?
Vallejo is spelled like Va-Je-Ho ☝🏻🤓
I need to apply that dust effect on some of my guys!
Where would you add highlights to chipping on a flat zone facing upwards, like the top of a Rhino transport? Thanks!
That's a tough one for sure. I would place the highlights towards the front face of the model as that's what you'd look at the most. Do an experiment and see if that works for you 😊
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA thanks for your reply and all you do. Great video as usual :))
When it comes to fixing that dust effect into place, can you use water?
Not with the powder as it would become a paste. You need to use pigment fixer.
an alternative for pigment fixer is hairspray or varnish.
you are making very useful videos with great presentation! I also started developing my channel and I hope I can follow your steps :)
The primaris armour is bonded ceramite and plasteel. It might well be lore appropriate to have a deeper layer of silvery plasteel!
I am better at painting because of you Duncan
im supprised u can see to paint with your long hair in your eyes duncan lol. great work as usual.
