Though I am a fan of the entire family of green colors, when I think of the color green, THIS is the color I'm thinking of. This right here is green defined. Emerald, practically. If there's a way to do gems in a NMM fashion, like "Non-Prismatic Gem," or something like that, then this'd be it. Always enjoy your uploads; they're like 10 to 15 minute master-classes on whatever the subject at hand is. Thanks, and have a good one.
Mate, so chuffed you are making videos again. Your videos and style put me in mind of the late, great Darren Latham, and that is the highest compliment I can give. If you have a to-do list of videos to make, could I request that you think about adding Ork skin tones to it? The green in this video got me thinking about it. I have used your guide for Ork faces and they came out really nice, but a video on the skin would be great too. Regardless of whether it's on the to-do list I'll keep watching - these videos are great.
Wow, I hadn't thought about using browns to tone these greens, I'm always glad to see how much I have to learn, definitely gonna use this, thanks so much.
No problem at all! Glad it was useful. Now life is a little bit less hectic for me I'll be looking at finishing off the other Biel-Tan videos I had planned like the white armour.
Thanks for reminding me, white video was planned but life got a bit hectic last year, so I'll make sure I pick the white up in a video in the not too distant future. Glad you enjoyed this one 🙂
Great video again, I like the extended shots of just watching you work without commentary. I’ve learnt stuff like holding the brush different ways just by watching. Plus the peaceful accent is relaxing and reminds me of my grandad. He has been gone a long time so it is nice to be reminded of him. Thanks very much. P.S. Any chance of doing a dark skin tone tutorial? There are so many for pale skin tones but very few for darker tones, and less with any great depth.
Hey, I love these and have been following - but I was wondering how to gradient on larger vehicles? I'm currently painting a Vyper and have done the panel lines but not sure where to hit the darker and lighter colours as there's more sort of longer, wider folds, if that makes sense?
Great video. I'm curious as to why you use a black primer rather than a white like Corax White spray? It seems like the undercoat would go on quicker but maybe I'm missing something. Thanks!
Just force of habit most of the time tbh 🙂 I prefer painting off black undercoat for almost everything… unless what I’m going to be painting is going to end up white or very light, like in the new white armour video I posted this evening. It’s probably come from when I first got into the hobby in the early 90’s spraying anything with the skull white spray that GW sold was a bit of a lottery whether it was going to go on smoothly or not. It was easier to spray black and almost guarantee a nice smooth undercoat and now it’s what I’m used to 🙂
Awesome work as always, so happy to see your videos again!! I'll totally try this approach for my new eldar. Could you recommend me some colour to highlight/shade Barak-Nar Burgundy as base colour? Or something like the old Screamer Pink. Thank you in advance!
Depends what you’re painting but I’d be tempted to shade with Rhinox Hide or Rhinox/black maybe, then highlight by adding something like Khorne Red up to Ushabti or Screaming Skull? I’ve done cloth like that and came out well. 🙂
Thank you!😀 Personally I'd apply the decals at the end and then just take the panel shade mix I used in this video, water it down to a very thin glaze and slowly glaze over the decal to help knock it back and tie it into the rest of the surface. If the decal was on the larger side and maybe ran across more than one panel (say the larger decals for a Grav Tank etc.) I'd also re-highlight the panel edges over the decal too. The next video I'll be releasing is some freehand black thorn markings for Biel-Tan, I'll make be sure to include these stages which will be exactly the same for going over decals. Also, for decals I'd probably use something like Micro Set and Micro Sol which softens the decal film and helps with the 'painted on look'.
@@WiltrichsMiniatureArt great, that's what I was thinking to do, so I'm glad to hear we're on the same page. I appreciate the detailed process in your reply, looking forward to that next video!
This is the first video of yours i've come across, and i have to say, when i think of Biel-Tan, this is the sort of green i see in my minds eye. I'm curious though, How About how long do you suspect it would take to paint a full Wraith Guard figure in this method?
Out of interest: why undercoat it black if you’re then going to spend 2 or 3 coats worth of time to bring it up to green without keeping shades in the deep crevices? Why not just start from a darker green undercoat and work up/down from there?
Yeah that’s good point, less coats and time. Tbh I hadn’t explored coloured undercoat sprays much, until very recently. So just went with my usual black undercoat out of habit. But I’ve just done similar to what you’re suggesting with my Leagues of Votann army after discovering the Colour Forge Undercoats sprays, much quicker and a great finish. I think I’ll be giving it a go for my Biel-Tan too

Great video. And great to have you posting on you tube again! Gotta agree with Tom, love the quiet extended shots!!
Thanks John! 🙂
Beautiful
Wonderful
Thank you Francis gn! 😀
THE KING RETURNS!!!
😂 That's very nice of you to say
Insane, as always.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video. 😀
The quality of your videos has come on along way since your ragnar paint along
Thanks man! It's good to hear they're going in the right direction too
Great work buddy!
Thanks mate! Enjoying painting Aeldari. Looking forward to building a small battle force of these guys. Can’t wait for the new releases.
It is so grat to see painting community growing! Thank you so much for contributing to its growth!
You are so welcome!

Thanks Keltoi3000! I'm enjoying being back. Glad you like the videos so far. Plenty more on the way 😀
Worth for a golden demon!
😀 Thank you Dk Bp!
Great work!

@@WiltrichsMiniatureArt I'll be glad to see it
Good stuff 🙂.
You really should do a video on the white of say, a guardian. Would love to see you take on it 😀
Thanks for reminding me, white video was planned but life got a bit hectic last year, so I'll make sure I pick the white up in a video in the not too distant future. Glad you enjoyed this one 🙂
Fantastic works, as always. Now I need to buy eldar models as well... Sigh.. 😆

Thanks Tom! Very kind of you to say. And great idea about the dark skin tone. I’ll definitely add it to the queue of videos 🙂
Hey Tom, if I did a dark skin tone tutorial soon, would you be okay with me using your comment/request in the video itself?
@@WiltrichsMiniatureArt Yes of course 👍
Thanks for this! Nice to have you back uploading great content! Would you consider a tutorial on freehand thorns and doing the white?
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes more Biel-Tan themed videos on their way 😀
@@WiltrichsMiniatureArt woo!🙂

How do you paint Magenta?

This is awesome. Question though, how would you do this technique if you also were adding either a marking or decal to make it blend with the shading?
Thank you!😀 Personally I'd apply the decals at the end and then just take the panel shade mix I used in this video, water it down to a very thin glaze and slowly glaze over the decal to help knock it back and tie it into the rest of the surface.

I’m in the middle of painting a full Wraith Guard as a display piece right now so I’ll let you know. 🙂
