Not Warhammer related but would love to see something involving flesh tones, like a bust or perhaps one of the creature caster demons.
If I was to use the same process for my Space Wolves, what would you change to paints above for?
I'd like to see shiney new necrons. There have been quite a lot of grimdark and weathered videos in my feed recently, so definitely like to see the other side of the coin.
A Dark Angels workup would be nice!
Dude, I cannot stress enough how great your videos have been for my motivation recently as I've said before, but this has really reawakened the same same enthusiasm I had at 11 years old when my dad bought me the Battle for Macragge box set. The difference is that now I'm able to fully appreciate and practice alongside your tutorials. Big thanks again!
Josh that's amazing, dude! This comment has made my day, it's exactly why we started the company and the youtube :)
Our pleasure ;)
Love the extra helmet.
HAHAH! I realized it half way through recording😅
I was going to ask why he had two 😂
@@martinrorie34 yeah same
Black templars as a similar video would be incredible on similar technique! :O thanks for the video!
+1
Ye I kind of said this at the time +1
You're surely getting your wish soon guys! Stay tuned 😊
Wow, absolutely incredible. So much depth and richness. Ive struggled using contrast paints trying to avoid getting a streaky wash effect so will definitely keep these lessons to hand.
Your enthusiasm is infectious Byron! Thanks for keeping the videos coming!
Your comment is much appreciated buddy! Thanks so much
Loving the combination of techniques, the interesting use of contrast paints, just a video full of brilliant ideas
John, what a lovely comment, cheers dude! We'll do our best to keep them coming, and keep them interesting :)
Great video, I really like the final result. I was a bit unclear on the colors used at 4.25, 5.15, 7.52, and 14.45. Thank you for posting the video.
Hey dude, it's Macragge blue + Temple Guard Blue mix, Temple Guard Blue, Temple Guard Blue drybrush, Temple Guard Blue repeated drybrush (following the wash :))
@@ArtisOpus Thanks mate!
Wow, I have learned so much just from this one video compared to hours of others I have watched.
This looks like the perfect tutorial for Emperor's Spears. Great job.
Glad you think so! Thanks for the support dude😊
Just preparing to paint my First marine Squad your videos have been very helpful. Its amazing how similar your full drybrushed Blood angel came out compared to this done with an airbrush. Really shows its not always the tool but how you use them. Thank you for sharing
Hey man, thanks so much, it's our pleasure!
We're actually working on an attempt at the fanciest drybrushed/stippled ultramarine currently, that's some serendipitous timing for the comment! Give us a follow on insta, I'll put a story up showing it :)
@@ArtisOpus I Dont think im ready to shoot for Fanciest Mini yet LOL, But i did give you a follow for sure. Also finished the my First Squad short of eye and base rim touch up black. Tagged, you on insta since it was all your tutorials figured you might like to see what your videos can do from zero painting experience.
I am always saddened by how to paint videos that utilise airbrushes ... but only because I don't have one (and not likely ever will) and know there is extra effort to achieve the same result with brush painting. I do like watching those who are skilled with the airbrush and how quickly a good result can be achieved.
No worries mate, we have plenty of upcoming videos without an airbrush used! Glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for supporting 😊
Purple is such a good base coat for so many colors
Right! Works almost everywhere 😊
I keep thinking of things for you to paint and next thing I know you already have, so now I’m watching every video you’ve ever made. I’m learning tons! Thanks so much for making all these videos!
Yesss! The back catalogue is not to be trifled with 😈. Our pleasure, my dude!
Brilliant video.... Will definitely be trying this for a few of the models....even as far as dragging the air brush out..... Very good end result with a simple technique.... Nice work as always.
Very pleased you liked it dude 😊 Thanks for the support!
Really enjoyed watching this, great techniques for an effective result
Glad you enjoyed it! Many thanks for the support 😊
I'd love to see a painting tutorial on Space Wolves, Dark Angels, and Imperial Fists.
Noted! Coming soon, stay tuned 😊
Imperial fist :)
looks fantastic. Gonna try this out.
Thanks Jesse! Have fun! 😊
Great video once again, would love to see a beaten up and rusty Necron using your brushes. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much! Will do! Stay tuned 😊
Dang, came out really nice. Thanks for showing the smaller series D, too.
Thanks so much buddy! 😊
Would love to see a breakdown for this technique for some Imperial Fists! Maybe give Nazdreg Yellow a shout out since it's seemingly ignored by a lot of the painters out there?
We've ignored it too! :o Imperial fist tutorial is already done, and he turned out amazingly, it's a high-level finish, 100% drybrush on the power armour, too :)
@@ArtisOpus Looking forward to seeing it
Another quality video, just wish I could get something that looks anywhere near as good!!
There's a lot of space marine love going on with tutorials ATM, I'd love to see how you could do (speedy) NMM on the necrons, or even a "ceramic" style effect on them 🙂
Thank you very much! It has been suggested plenty. Will surely get a video out soon😊
Loving your work guys!!!! 🙌🏼
Thanks so much!!
Would love to see your take on Salamanders! And maybe you could do a cool lava base to go with it.
Cool idea! Already added to my list. Thanks for he suggestion Daniel 😊
Totally fantastic, personally I love the mix you used combining an airbrush and dry brush. What a great technique and can’t wait to give it a go! Thx for the inspiration. Ps I’m always on the holy grail of the perfect brush and i love my size 3 S so much!! Quality
Thanks for the support James, very pleased you enjoyed the video as well as your brush 😊 Hope it serves you well!
I just find it funny that marine has 2 helmets. Though that was a very nice clean paint job :)
😊 Thank you buddy!
Bloody brilliant, you’ve done it again! I am so impressed! Ready to see the rhino video of this next!
:). 🤞It should be a good one, was completely blindsided by Macragge blue being as matte as S75 scalecolor though!
@@ArtisOpus do you notice a large difference between starting your work with an air brush vs stippling start?
@@ScrubGamerRN I cover this a little in the upcoming vid... Not hugely in quality, but I prefer the protection offered (especially over chaos black) from at least one layer of brush brushing.
For me the perfect option is a combo, as airbrushing reaches the recesses so much more conveniently :)
Love it. The armour is great and he's even carrying a second pristine helmet for if he scratches that wonderful paint work on the one he's wearing! Can you do a similar video for a Dark Angel please?
HAHAH! You just always need a back up helmet, right? 🙄 Dark Angel is already on my list, stay tuned😊
@@ArtisOpus Excellent, can't wait!
woow, Again, Great result.
Thank you so much 😊
nice to see airbrush + dry brushing
Thank you Geoff, pleased you liked it 😊
At min 4:44 you paint the top what seems to be a mix of temple guard and mcrage blue, but you just say "this color here." What colors are you doing, and what ratio? Also at 5:29, what color (ratio etc)
Hey dude, correct (50/50ish) - following is with the addition of blue horror (to taste, it's a little pastel so a little goes a long way)
NMM dry brush necrons sounds great! Love the content
Agreed I can't wait to see how they tackle them
It's on the list already! Thanks for the suggestions 😊
Really liking these series of videos (and my Artis Opus brushes :)). There are so many ways paint Ultramarines, I'm having a hard time deciding which blues to use. :)
Glad you like them buddy! Thanks so much for the support! If you have any questions regarding specific paints or ways to pain don't hesitate to ask, we're here to help 😊
I did a similar thing with my space wolves, I used incubi darkness base colour and worked up with russ grey, fenrisian grey and then blue horror. Didn't do the airbrushing steps, but still a similar result that I am super happy with. Got a whole squad done in two evenings.
That sounds perfect James, can absolutely see how it would have worked, bet they look sweet, too! Can you @us on social media so I can be nosy please? :)
Artis Opus when I post them on my IG I shall be sure to do that!
Wow!!! Amazing. What is the stuff in the jar you’re using while dry brushing?
Hey buddy, it's our dampening pad, it's the small wooden pot you can see in all of our sets here: store.artis-opus.com/en-de/collections/series-d-drybrushing
Any more questions just let me know in another (separate, not a reply to this, they get lost).
Unreal tutorial dude! Now just to buy a few model D brushes and get cracking on my Salamanders.
Would love to see Salamanders, Imperial Fists and Blood Angels/Flesh Tearers
On the list already! Thanks for the suggestions dude😊
Awesome, Artis!
Thank youuu 😊
Great guide for airbrushing Marines! Please do Deathwatch Indomitus next, again with airbrushing technices!
Thanks so much for the support and the suggestion Eric 😊
Fine work!
Thanks so much!😊
Great video! Cool very effects. I have a couple of questions:
What white are you using for the initial air brush highlight?
Was it two identical coats of lamium medium and mcgragge blue covering the white?
What was there an additional colour layer between the Lamium med and mcgragge blue?
What colour was used for the final precise (0.4) layer of blue?
Really love the videos, even with the lack of eldar stuff painted. For the next could you mix some metallics with colors and show drybrushing a necron with metallics?
Have you tried using the contrast medium for the contrast paints ? It works so wel!
Hey Paul, this has a love and a like, which often happens when a comment hasn't gone through, apologies!
I have tried it yeah, love it! - We've recently put out some more vids with 'tinting' metallics, but no wholesale colouring, it's definitely a good idea for a future one!
Beautiful work as always!
I would really like to see your approach to NMM Necron.
Coming soon! Great idea, been requested lots already 😊 Thanks for the support buddy!
I'd be super interested to see how you do your fancy drybrushing for some Salamanders bladeguard.
It's been added to the list! Thanks for the support Christopher 😊
Awesome video as always, just got my Series S and D in the post this morning! I would be really interested to know if you could come up with a cool way of doing NMM using drybrushes? Weapons especially such as swords :) Looking forward to your next vid
Awesome to hear buddy! Hope they serve you well! I put down your suggestion, stay tuned!😊
Your choice of Temple Guard Blue as a highlight color for the base of Macragge Blue is a bit unorthodox. It always seemed a bit too close to green for that. But if you're using purple for the shading, perhaps a tiny bit of yellow on the highlights works well with it. I know a bit of color theory, and that makes some sense to me.
There is one thing that puzzles me, though. Is there any reason in particular why you mix Leviadon Blue with Flesh Tearers Red for the shade, instead of just going for Shyish Purple?
Hey dude, I liked the tone it made, and just wanted it to have 'a blue' in there, I know that doesn't hugely make sense objectively, but I felt it was less at odds with the mini than other potential options :)
Great video and paint job. Just wondered next time can you give advise for alternative options for people who don't own an airbrush...
Thanks so much buddy! 😊 Check out our recent Imperial Fist video, you can use the exact same colours from this video in that style.
@@ArtisOpus yeah spotted it shortly after. Thank you so much 👌
Can i ask for drybrushing metallics next please!
I'd like to see that as well!
It's on the list guys! Stay tuned😊
Excellent video - for non-airbrush users I'm guessing the gradients can be achieved by wet blending instead? Love the mix of techniques on show here - it gives an brilliant result on the model. Now to adapt this for my blood angels!
Hey Jill, if you check out the recent Imperial Fist tutorial I'd basically take exactly that approach with these colours, you'd be surprised how close you can get!
Wet blending is really quite a good idea, too, it could definitely work also!
Could you please make a video on how to paint the black coach? Thanks
That's a scary undertaking👻
Hahaha
But will you do it?
I've had conflicting answers on this so I thought best thing is "horses mouth".
With the Artist Opus dry brush palette, should you prime it or not!??! I was told you should yet you dont look to have.
I would prime it buddy, chaos black! It will help retsrd the paint and keep it workable for longer, plus it's then the same as your mini, so more relevant for testing
I would like to see you do a shield bearing model, I want to see how you handle all the different colors, the metallic, and details of the shields, and do them on the Raven Guard, so we can see how your techniques deal with black power armor!!!
Apologies for the delay mate! Black power armour's had some love, but the shield idea is a great idea!
Looking great. I love the videos where you are mixing techniques! Even though I don’t play or collect any 40k, I want to pick some minis up and try to replicate your recipe :-)
What a nice comment! Thanks so much Jan
You could almost make me like the smurf boys ... Very good video as always, what aerograph are you using ?
Thanks, dude! I use a Cult of Paint signature series😊
Some dark angels would be pretty cool to see
Coming soon! 😊
Thought the colour used to be much darker...might have changed. I stick to macrrage blue ...
You can use this method with any colours
How do you get your drybrush to go so perfectly on, mine ends up streaky and doesnt catch everything like an edge highlight like that at all. Using volupus pink and dry brushing on emperors children although I may try to find a different pink/magenta. Ive been recommended pink horror for it so far.
Hey buddy. More info needed! What size drybrush are you using, are you using the dampening pad, etc? Reply as a new comment please, it's easy to miss replies in threads.
Orange my dude, definitely want to see orange, black and white space marine.
I LOVE painting orange... there's no orange space marines, are there...? I've seen orange SCE
Can you show this technique on something like white scars? Thank you! Big fan of your brushes have both the S and D ranges
Cheers Jonathan! Yes of course! It's on the list already, stay tuned😊
Hey, that looks really good! Very clean and crisp looking, for the sake of contrast, rusty necrons would be awesome, I already know how I would attack them, but it is always interesting to see how different people handle rust effects because it feels like there are so many different options, for me, I get the most enjoyment and best results using the life colour rust and dust paint set over grey and black brown working light to dark with heavy washes and speckling, but would be interested to see how you would go about getting a rusty finish!
Hi Simon, looks like we have a similar approach dude, you'll know exactly what I mean in a few days :D
Wow that looks amazing! Almost tempts me away from my beloved Black Templar. (Would love to see a similar vid on some glorious Templar!) What type of airbrush/compressor do you use? It's only a matter of time before I get myself one... and some series D brushes
Thanks for the comment Bevan 😊 I use these two airbrushes: store.artis-opus.com/collections/airbrushes
Amazing job !! please do it with the sons of vulcan ! (same technique ;) )
Thanks so much for your support and suggestion buddy ^_^ Just added it to the list, stay tuned 👀😊
Question. Why not paint the parts separately then put them together? Especially when there's hard to reach places. I normally do gundam kits so I just wanna know why.
Nice! What color 2:34 was the white highlights?
Cheers dude! Any white you like, I used While Scar.☺️
very nice, love how it looks, 1 question, why does he have 2 helmets, one on the back of his belt, and wearing the other one on his head?
Space Marines are always prepared!
@@ArtisOpus ha ha ok
Hi, what airbrush do you use? I want to buy a Iwata Neo but I think it is not precise enough. Thank you for the great content, it really hepls.
Thanks for the comment dude! I use both of these: store.artis-opus.com/collections/airbrushes
Artis Opus Hi again, I just pirchase the dampering pot, can't wait to use it.
Next I'm getting the dry brush set. Will you be offering coupon codes or discounts in the near future? You are the best, and you offer high quality products. Thank you sir
Artis Opus and will you be offering the D Series set without the accessories? Like, just the brushes? Because I didn't notice the dampering pad was included. Thanks again sir
Very nice techniques. Hope to make a squad in this color..but might make it a little darker like the other Ultramarines in my army
Thanks for the support mate! 😊 Show us your results on socials?
INDOMITUS!!
😊!!
Hi, Great video, ive just ordered the series D, its on its way! Can i ask what compressor you are using?
Awesome Justin! Hope they serve you well! Thanks for your question - I use Smart Jet Pro from Iwata, but I'd recommend a Smart Jet Plus 😊
You can have a look here: elementgames.co.uk/search?q=smart+jet+plus
paint a dark angel pls, greats brushs
It's on the list buddy, stay tuned!
So what would have been the difference between using a blue shade in 11:40 - 14:00? It seems to me that using the dark blue shade would have been easier!
I just like the depth it adds😊
A bit of red makes for warmer shadows, which creates additional contrast with the main cool blue.
How do you clean the paint from your hands?
Gardener's hand wash or soap work well if you're worried about it, I gave up not having paint on my left hand a few years back :D
please,do it with green salamander's armor =) and grey wolf and black iron hands if you have time
Great idea! I put it down on the list😊
bought today the D serie brushes and i am Eager to test them! I have one question : in a similar situation, if i wanted to add some light, dusty, weathering, especially in the lower parts, at what point do you think it's the right time? Would you do that before or later to the last drybrush steps? Would you try a "dirty" filter over the whole model after the last drybrush step? Sorry for the horrible english , Thanks!
Hey dude, great question! I'd do it just before the very final drybrush stages - i like it when the edges still stand out :). Your English is genuinely legit 👌
@@ArtisOpus great! That was the main reason why I was asking! Thank you again, I'll try as soon as I receive the brushes!
Space wolves please
You'll get it soon! 😊
Two helmet space marine? Just in case he needs a spare?
I was thinking the same thing all along the vidéo 🤣🤣🤣
@@kayvaan4749 I built that assault sergeant yesterday, there were two options, gun, chainsword and no helmet (helmet on the belt) and an empty hand and gun, with the chainsword on the belt. So Byron has essentially just used the wrong head for this option.
I realized this half way through 😅oopsi
@@ArtisOpus to be fair it's not the easiest box to build. Some of the Necrons are crazy.
@Artis Opus are you mixing white into macragge blue @4:20 ?
I'm adding in lighter blues - temple guard here :)
Black templers next? :)
YESS! 😊
Rusty necronsssss
The video is coming very soon! Stay tuned
BlOOD ANGELS WHITE SCARS AND IMPERIAL FISTS !
On the list, you'll see some very soon! 😊 Thank you for the suggestions!
@@ArtisOpus great work gives me plenty of time to decide what chapter I'll paint my INDOMITUS marines when it arrives
Dark Angels please!
Will be out soon!😊
Wanna see an achievable purple space marine... Purple Stars?
Salamanders please
On the list buddy! Thanks for the suggestion😊
Thanks for the quick reply, I've tried lots of sizes and shapes of dry brush, the best result so far being a battered cut down citadel one that I used for mixing paint lmao. I haven't used a dampening pad yet is that a big part of it? Im willing to pay a decent amount if it helps me smash through my backlog which may or may not include the Indomitus and soon Leviathan marines... Any recommendations much appreciated ❤
Painting myself some Sons of the Phoenix, love me some candled 'sons of Rogal Dorn' 😉
Hey buddy, it's not too much of a surprise you're struggling, you're not using the same technique or tools, any cut down brushes won't taper to a finer point at the tips of the hairs, so you've probably made something that can stipple OK, but might be a tad rough for the drybrushing.
I use this set of brushes (it comes with a pad), and an XXL texture palette. The core principles of the technique involve using high-quality round 'lightbulb' shaped drybrushes. These have a lot of fine hairs, and the technique uses a small (predictable, not too much) amount of moisture and frequent testing on the palette to keep things high quality.

Palette: store.artis-opus.com/products/xxl-texture-palette-a3-brand-new-product-design
Any further questions pop in a new comment again, don't want to lose you :)
At 3:45 my macragge blue is way darker and it is not as glossy when i airbrush my models how can i fix this?
Hey dude, sorry for the delay, it's probably a matter of thinning/thinner - you can always add a little strong alcohol to your thinner if you want to include something that'll promote a matte finish, or use a tad of matte medium.
It sounds like you've just used more, perhaps thicker, or perhaps not thinned as aggressively as I did, hope that helps!
@@ArtisOpus thx alot man
WHAT is that tripod airbrush holder? I want one!
Hi Kris, it's cute right? elementgames.co.uk/Airbrushes-accessories/harder-and-steenbeck/cult-of-paint/cult-of-paint-airbrush-holder :)
Is there a way to do this without an airbrush? I find doing any sort of speed painting with drybrushing for zenithal just makes everything look chalky.
Absolutely dude, it's all about using thinner paint - I've only recently perfected this more, but for me it's basically a matter of doing stippling in a couple of thinned stages to build them up, just like normal painting - but important without opaque paint, just requires a bit more patience! Apologies for missing this comment!
First rule of the codex - Always carry a spare helmet when entering battle.
Very considerate of the marine to carry a spare helmet for any of his mates who might lose theirs.
You never know.....🤷♂️😂
Stone or marble style necrons maybe 🤔
On the list! Cheers for the suggestion 😊
Would love a silver marine that are not just "spray leadbelcher".
I think we can help with this at some point at the near future! 😊
@@ArtisOpus Great! will help with my silver templars
Brush brush!
👨🏼🎨
@@ArtisOpus 😂
Rusty Necrons? Now that sounds interesting. A little rusty or very rusty that is the question
Our tutorial will be out soon, hope it's rusty enough😅
Artis Opus looking forward to it 😍👍😍
White scars! White scars!
They have been neglected for a long time. I will do it, just need to learn how to😅😊Thanks for watching, buddy!
This guy looks like someone you'd wanna be friends with
:D he'd have your back, that's for sure :)
I think he was talking about you, Byron. Take the compliment dude! 🙂
Great paintjob, but pls no more Airbrush :)
Space Wolves Biker or NMM Necron Warrior with some rust would be great!
It's added on the list already buddy! Many thanks for the suggestions😊
Ultramarines. Why did it have to be Ultramarines? Seriously though, I hate Edge Highlighting. I just don’t have the patience for it, and I love this technique. Would you do something similar for white?
White is on the list dude, we'll get to White Scars soon 😊 Cheers for the support!
Why does he have two helmets?
do the new primaris tank coming out for the Primaris in Ultramarine colors.that would be awesome but i say that being i am a Ultramarine fanatic..
Great idea! Put it down on my list buddy! Thanks for the support and suggestions😊
Shame the model maker didn't spot the helmet worn and helmet on his belt. Other than that l, great video.
I noticed half way through recording 😅oopsi
Thanks for the comment!
how about some tron style necrons? from the 2010 Tron: Legacy version of course!
Sounds cool, put it down on my list😊 Thanks for the ideas!
