Thank you very much! I’ve got some SoS somewhere so I’ll see if I’ve time for them. I’ve a fair few commissions I need to get through first before the end of the year though I’ll certainly add SoS to the list.
This looks better than the actual powder blue French uniforms of actual World War One. Much Darker blue than it was historically. Looks better. Can you imagine the French running around in baby blue fighting uniforms getting mowed down by maxim guns from being so easy to spot.
These are gorgeous. Do you know which contrast colors would be good if I wanted to lean more into a grey scheme with a hint of blue maybe ? I’m sure you’ve painted grey somewhere in one of your videos, maybe I’ll do some perusing :D
I finally tried to paint the minis following you, but cant understand how you get such a "watery" feeling with the contrast paints... the way you do it is sooooo clean, you make the contrast paints work like I guess they are supposed to do it, while in my minis, for example in the coat, I just cant get a clean finish not even in the flat areas, where you can even feel the brush strokes. If I wasn't seeing you taking the paint directly from the pot I would have thought that you were mixing it with some medium or even with water, what's the trick??? :D
It comes down to three things really - the amount of paint on your brush, how you apply it and practice. With the amount of paint, you want it so that the brush is obviously full, but not dripping with paint. With the application, try as best you can to do long smooth strokes, painting towards recesses and try not to go back to an area that's drying as you run the risk of 'tearing' the paint that's there. As for the last point, all I can recommend is painting as much as you can!
@@Warhipster Thanks for taking the time to reply! I will for sure follow your advise :) I will print some 3d models that I think can work to practice the "contrast technique", GW models dont deserve my experiments xD
This looks wonderful, I think I’ll give it a try. Any tips on what to do if a slip happens and you get the wrong contrast paint somewhere where it shouldn’t be?
Man I really like the look of that coat color. Nicely done overall! I'm building my DKoK Kill Team now. Thanks for some great ideas. Question on the flamer's tanks, how did you get that look?
How are you mixing the 3:1 mixture for the great coat? Palette or just on the brush? I'm tempted to give contrasts a try but my knowledge is pretty limited?
I do it on a piece of palette paper from GW as I’ve tons of the stuff. Any kind of impermeable palette would work fine for it. If you’ve not much used Contrast then I can’t recommend it enough, I absolutely love them and though there’s a bit of a learning curve I think they’re a fantastic tool to have.
@@Warhipster Perfect! Thanks for the clarification, I normally work with normal acrylics and oil paints but I've held out on the contrast because it seemed like outside of dilution mixing wasn't an option.
Cannot wait to try this out! That blue recipe is fantastic!
Thank you very much! If you do use the recipe and post it to Instagram at all please be sure to tag me.
I've been waiting for this tutorial for sooooooo long! Thanks a lot for posting it, your Veterans look awesome!
You’re very welcome and thank you very much! I hope you find it as useful as I found them enjoyable to paint.
Exactly the tutorial I was waiting for! Awesome stuff!
That’s ace to hear and thank you Gordon!

good job. the work looks really good. Please, if possible, a tutorial for the orcs part from the kill team box, that would be really nice.
Thank you very much Daniel! You’ll be pleased to know that there’s a video on the Kommandos coming up tomorrow evening.
Beautiful!
Thanks!

man my paints are way darker (space wolves) idk why
You sound like Alan rickman, in a good way. Awesome tutorial!
Another amazing paint job man! What color do you think would make a good highlight on the brown leather if wanted to go the extra mile?
Thank you! Hmm, if you want to go for a cold leather then Baneblade Brown and if you want a warmer leather then I’d go for Skrag Brown.
1st world war the ankle raps were called - Puttees and 2nd ww and later they were called - webbing "gaiters" that were secured with buckles..... 👍👍🍺🍺
Spats over the boots , i think they also call them gators
These are gorgeous. Do you know which contrast colors would be good if I wanted to lean more into a grey scheme with a hint of blue maybe ? I’m sure you’ve painted grey somewhere in one of your videos, maybe I’ll do some perusing :D
'Puttees' is the word you're after, I believe.
Ah I see! Thank you very much for that Tom!

You’re more than welcome, the more people that understand how wonderful Contrast is the better!
This looks wonderful, I think I’ll give it a try. Any tips on what to do if a slip happens and you get the wrong contrast paint somewhere where it shouldn’t be?
I have a question now that we have way more contrast out is something that give the basecoat of the coat directly without mixing?
Man I really like the look of that coat color. Nicely done overall! I'm building my DKoK Kill Team now. Thanks for some great ideas.
Question on the flamer's tanks, how did you get that look?
Nice Tutorial.
Thanks Victor!
I hate mixing when it comes to citadel when are they going to get with the times and do dropper bottles
could someone explain to me why use grey into black instead of just putting the black pain on just by itself, or brown/leather tan under the black?
