You're brave. I swear Golden Demon staff dropkick entries into the cabinets, attach the cabinets to paint shakers, load the paint shakers onto the back of a professional wrestler, send the professional wrestler through a flaming table, and only then will the judges be summoned.
I highly, highly, highly recommend covering up that massive screw. My eye goes to that instantly, and for Golden Demon they are not going to overlook that. Maybe covering it in a dark ruddy resin mixture to further sell the water effect, or putting a piece of terrain in there and blending it into the water?
@snowy5628 lol he got a commended entry which is well above top 50%. I would definitely say that's going far in warhammers biggest international painting competition.
You really need to do something with that big ol screw in the foot, as least paint it black so it doesn't stand out as much! Other than that he's looking absolutely magnificent!
I agree. Considering it is walking through mud, he could make it look like mud/water dropping down from the foot, or some kind of natural fiber that clung to the foot etc
Concept, he should try to work with some glue and sand and muddy textures so that it looks like the foot soaked up some of the puddle, and it's slowly dripping out from the center of the foot, kind of a Weep hole
I spent 6 months painting an Albion Truthsayer with a brush that had pretty much 5 hairs. That was a long, long time ago and even though I was really happy with it at the time it did bugger all to help my painting speed. Nice looking Titan mate, I appreciate the fact you paint armies really cleanly. I'm still trying to get my confidence up with just finishing the damned models in the first place.
I grew up on a small island and couldn't really find anyone else who had the hobby so I learned mostly by myself. To say I learned the wrong thing so far as tools and the time it takes to paint things is an understatement! I've learned vastly more since then thankfully and that self-inflicted silliness ended long ago.
Dude, this type of art is PHENOMENAL. You literally went all out on this one and the details are amazing. Like, I would expect this to be amongst the top contenders at Golden Demon just for how much effort you put into it and it has paid off STUNNINGLY. But, it reminds me of a this marble-/ceramic-like Titan model some guy made some years ago that was rejected as an entry by Golden Demon. The painting quality looked a lower level than your Titan, but he did a lot of freehand and generally it seemed like it should at the very least make it ito the event. But nope, rejected entry. What I'm saying is... I love your work and this looks INCREDIBLE... but with Golden Demon it's kind of like... waiting to get dropped over "a brightly coloured skink". GD has this thing of just looking at imperfections and disregarding all other outstanding effort over it because it isn't the cleanest paint job. In your case... I think SOME of these points might trigger GD's odd way of rating models: - The "rusty" turquoise might just be a little too blue/too bright instead of slightly more blended in - The whole laser/plasma drybrushing around his eyes might trigger them due to it being a "simple" effect - On one of the right tubes you can see a bit of a white line that runs across it, I think there might be another tiny blemish or two that give the model more character but can be a reason to get voted out early - They might judge the screw being too easily visible under his left foot - And there's too many difficult colours for their brain to process and it's not a skink, so yeah xD No, but I think it's awesome, probably the best Titan paint job I've ever seen. You should send it in to see how far you get, but I know how GD judges can just look for the simple things to rate.
You've got to fix the bolt that's attaching the foot to the base, Jay. Golden Daemon won't like it. That right there could very well be what causes you to NOT get a finalist pin.
Friendly tip for those "quick" epoxies: The time listed is an estimated WORKING time, not a CURING time. It generally means that, for example, a 5 minute epoxy, is that you have roughly 5 minutes to work with it as a smooth glue-like consistency before the curing process kicks in and it starts getting goopy and spider-webbing. It still takes hours for it to fully cure to full strength.
That sounds ridiculously general, like a 'Hey, I certainly had problems with the mail already. Let's send a seven-pound table-top war machine across the county' - Jay idea.
It is actually amazing to watch you evolve and become better artist. I’ve asked other RUclips creators to do a “go back and fix video”,but you do it all the time. Thank you
Man, you are such a talented painter. It makes me want to improve my own skills, which as of right now are just the bare minimum getting models combat ready. You get your models *parade* ready.
3:00 Homie *that* decal is ‘sharp.’ Definitely put together a few favorites, for maybe 🤔 Wet decal merch, a page of really good scaled up & down, designs :L
i like your skill i just started airbrushing my army is a 1500 pt tau slowly adding to it but been painting these models for years adding more detail every time its a good time killer
I have a magnifier which is exactly the same as that. It’s an amazing tool for mini painting, especially if you have eyesight problems. I have a few different headsets but they’re impractical because you have to use them up close. I also have a digital microscope that works great too for very small details.
I'm pretty sure they'll ding you for that massive bolt under Stompy's left foot. Maybe adding some of that epoxy resin over it to make a pillar of water and hitting it with that same transparent amber would help.
Your production videos are my favourites in the business. Keep up the good work. You’re very entertaining towatch. Always looking forward to the next one.
Nooice. I regret to say I could not arrange to go to Adeptacon this year…. One day I will find you…. And thank you for getting me back into my hobby !!
little tip: for glue or epoxy on flat surfaces, you absolutely have to scratch the surfaces on both side, for example with a hobby knife, so you have a larger surface area to adhere to. Use an X shape scraping pattern and be amazed how well anything will adhere ;-)
I admire how you go back and repaint or finish your older models. A lot of hobbiests, including myself never go back and look at past models... We just buy more 😂
That is some epic freehanding. Looking forward to seeing that monster in the case. I hope you have a plan to record the packing, transporting, and delivering Stompy to the judges.
I wish I wad going to adepticon this year but I'm going to miss out sadly. I love seeing all the minis in the case especially when I've been watching them be created in videos.
Amazing work jay, only thing I’d add would be to change the colours of some of the pipes etc around the face! Titans should be dark, grimey, scared and covered in masses of freehand and heladry! They’ve been stomping around for 1000s of years and should wear the scars,grime and heraldry with pride! Looks brilliant mate keep up the good work!!
Awesome! If you’re going for perfection the “VORA” of the SUTUR VORA would benefit from being a bit further to the right. As of now the VORA is also a tad bit larger letters than the SUTUR part. But it looks great as is!
After my Warhound I hoped the reaver will be easier but following this I doubt it. Also I’m a regular JB weld fan. Yep, the one that takes 24hr to dry. It’s ages but it holds like nothing else
i LOVE this guy, Jay! But, I think that screw and bolt under his foot are going to be enough for them to not like it. Can you cover that in more resin to look like water so that it's hidden?
I just ordered my first model (a Knight Crusader) and seeing you paint like this gets me excited. Do you have any tips or tricks for painting it? I really wanna get it right.
I'll be rooting for ya Jay! But I hope you don't mind, I'd rather call him Stampy. (ala Barts Elephant) Thank you for all your inspiration! I think I'm finally ready to play with streaky grime myself....
HI GREAT VID, AWESOME TITAN! COULD I QUICKLY ASK WHAT DID YOU USE TO DO A TEST MODEL? ALSO WOULD I BE ABLE TO TEST MODEL SISTERS OF BATTLE USING IT? THANKS!
If you really want to mess with the staff paint some more titans and enter as squad. A Small maniple can be just one more knight and a warhound. I still think you should paint some tiny versions for adeptus titianicus, you can even run them as loyalist.
Sweet! You headed to Adepticon GD then? I purchased a reaver at the warhammer store there last year with the intent to enter it this year, but I can't figure out how to transport it from Hawaii...the airlines limit you to one carryon nowadays...and I need to carry the rest of my entries :D
This is great my only issue is with the way his legs are technically that leg would be on a downwards swing to land it in the water as it the forward most leg right? Looks cool thou
House mark ?? As some off the titan decal are fantastic for war engines and dreadnought but the vehicle decal mmmm GW needs to do its decals a bit better especially for champion character edition war suits or dreadnought if your a bit more about Epic battle fantastic job that pretty. But the glue magnet?? 😃😄😁😆😅5 Smile's service terrain box 😊. Clean edge plastic glue pin it the JB weld is a polymer wouldn't recommend.

I find it funny how Jay, despite being the black templar guy, grabbed a white scars for knee size reference
He probably wanted to show it off a little lol. Maybe he did it recently. Or the white scar was closest amd he was feeling lazy lol, i been there.
He's said before, once he finishes a mini he has trouble putting it down. It was most likely the latest thing he'd worked on at time of recording.
so what?
all space marines are either red, green or blue.
there is no difference

Why punish yourself? You could buy a chunky brush at any hardware store for a couple of bucks or less.

thank you, it even says on the packaging that it sets in 5 mins and takes like 24-48 hours to fully cure. People don't read things anymore lol.
Ooh boy more titan stuff! If I may, I think it'd be cool to have a Legions Imperialis/Adeptus Titanicus Reaver titan done identically to the large lad
I love the scar, and the courage it took to make it.
That sounds ridiculously general, like a 'Hey, I certainly had problems with the mail already. Let's send a seven-pound table-top war machine across the county' - Jay idea.

And thank you for getting me back into my hobby !!
Your free handing skills are phenomenal. I can only hope to mimic even a fraction of that talent in one of my projects one day.

Use an X shape scraping pattern and be amazed how well anything will adhere ;-)
If you're struggling to get epoxy to set, just put some spuerglue around the edges of it to grab instantly and it'll hold it until the epoxy sets.
This is really beautiful, great work of art!
I admire how you go back and repaint or finish your older models. A lot of hobbiests, including myself never go back and look at past models... We just buy more 😂
Great job. Wish I could brush anywhere near that well.

So excited you posted!
Stompys got my vote!! That freehand is fire!!!man Jay if only you had a notebook to write everything down 😂😂!!Thanks gents!! Fantastic as always!!!
Was expecting my monthly terrain painting video.
Nice mixing it up
Jaw dropping exclant free hand by the way and awesome overall project!
That freehand on the knee pad is fantastic!
The Reaver looks freaking EPIC! Beautiful work!

But it looks great as is!
Awesome freehand! Well done.
That is some very nice freehand on the kneecap.
awesome work Jay! Hoping to see it get the medal it deserves
The base details were an amazing addition
well I spent most of feb working on sisters of battle and inquisition characters and some touches on knights
no one cares also i know where you live and who you are
After my Warhound I hoped the reaver will be easier but following this I doubt it. Also I’m a regular JB weld fan. Yep, the one that takes 24hr to dry. It’s ages but it holds like nothing else
So nice... I hope to see you and your stompy in adepticon..!
It looks really good man! I wish you the best of luck!
Jay rocks up to Adepticon with the reaver in a papoose; "excuse me good sir, which way to the creche?"
@EonsOfBattle Did you use a proper ratio mixing tip for that epoxy? This could be why it didn't harden quickly.
The story on the stone crest was (CAPTIAL-C) classy.
Jay's ability to free hand makes me so jealous....impressive as always High Lord Jay
PAINT SOME TAU MECHS PLEASE
I so enjoy your enthusiasm.
for future reference a thinner longer brush will get you straight lines a lot easier
Hi, what’s the magnifier you use?
"I'm not good at freehand" proceeds to draw a perfect freehand. WUT bro
Where did you get your magnifying lamp?
Loving the little detailing with the text, despite it being incredibly time consuming to make. Also I gotta know where you got that ring lamp!
Really hoping you'll get to paint some #InfinityTorchlight soon 🤩🔥
Best of luck for Golden Demon, Jay!
I'll be looking for this at Adepticon!
i LOVE this guy, Jay! But, I think that screw and bolt under his foot are going to be enough for them to not like it. Can you cover that in more resin to look like water so that it's hidden?
Wouldn’t haven’t went white for the skulls just looks like pops too much instead of blending. Maybe bloody tally marks. Whole project is sick tho.

Do you have any tips or tricks for painting it? I really wanna get it right.
noob haha, get out of here this is an advanced channel
Nice job with upgrading an already good paint job. Tip is to use a mechanical pencil to draw in your free hand. Keep up the good content
Good luck! Stompy is looking choice.
I'll be rooting for ya Jay! But I hope you don't mind, I'd rather call him Stampy. (ala Barts Elephant)
Thank you for all your inspiration! I think I'm finally ready to play with streaky grime myself....
i might be a little late to the party, but i thought putting some wet mud on the bottom of the toe to hide that screw a bit better.
That’s some skill right there

Looks cool thou
Absolutely massive, I'm curious how even these guys play on tabletop whern they're so huge
The freehands look so good
I dont know shit about 40k but god damn is that thing a work of art. Absolutly amazing job god damn
Tops best yet, Jay!!!🎉🎉🎉
Oh man, this was so epic until the streak and grime. That was brave!
Now all you need is two Warhounds and like 4 more knights in this paint scheme and you can play an apocalypse game as a titan maniple...
Suturvora are Chaos aligned. I guess this would work in a 30k Context.
I'm surprised you don't use paint pens for freehanding, really love the Posca
Looks like he's gingerly checking to see if the bathwater is still too hot.

Could you send it to me…. I uhhh need to verify the titan…. Yeah? Yeah!
It would be cute to have purity seals all the way down on the toes
Watch Golden Demon introduce size constraints the following year
The paint reminds me of Megas XLR
Excellent work 👍👍
Good luck Jay!
for a cost of $1,400 that titan should be real!
could add scortch paint to the big melta
