Gotta say, you do a fantastic job with sculpting hair. I'm going to have to practice this a bunch to get my skills up. Appreciate you posting up something like this to help
What's so amazing is as I'm watching, I forget just how frickin small the figure is and then my brain notices your fingers again and I'm amazed at how much detail you can put into something so small.
Jarl Valbjorn himself! I had no idea you did RUclips tutorials!? You’ve easily been one of my biggest inspirations into the hobby for the last 2 years and the reason I started using green stuff 👌🏻
Just found and followed this tutorial! It has made my new leagues of Votann models soooo much better. I love seeing them with big traditional dwarf beards. Thank you!!
Just over the top amazing results man, you make it looks effortless. Fantastic video. I like that it's a full realtime video as well without a bunch of edits, so people get a realistic idea of the effort required.
I always disliked the human heads for Warhammer minitures so I put them all in a bag and replaced them all with helmets, you have given me a reason to bring the heads out! thanks so much for this info and your channel is way too underrated. What a treasure to find this before you get all famous and everyone steals this technique!
These are amazing. Thanks for this great tutorial. My wolves are about to get a whole lot more beardier. The tip for changing the ratio for the blue is a game changer.
Since i found your video, all my spare heads now have mediocre beards and hair. Appriciate the work you put into this video! And a sidenote, was really refreshing to have a person talk calmly through it, and not overhyped and squeaky, keep it up!
That's really great to hear! It's funny, in person I'm very pumped up but during these videos I feel very relaxed - the best sculpting is done with a slow heartrate haha.
@@jarlvalbjorn yeah, seems like it! I have moved on into more free imagination since, having my 40k on a hiatus for a short while, still having tons of fun doing hair and beard 😅
I love this tutorial, I just followed it and it worked great, though I am intensely annoyed cause I nailed it on the first go then overworked it luck a dummy, oh well attempt 2 was still pretty good, this is the first time I sculpted anything thanks a lot for giving me the confidence to try, you rock
This is an amazing GS tutorial. Real time, informative, and definitely not overhyping how easy something will be. Gotta say, the ratio of blue to yellow is something that seems so obvious hearing you explain it but I just never saw it explained properly anywhere else. I've been trying to sculpt a full 50:50 mix and seeing expectable results. I love these methods and will be definitely trying them myself.
this whole thing feels like synthwave asmr the tunes in the background the vaguely cruddy mic the smooth dulcet tones of your voice the pacing of the tutorial a+, i'm ready for bed (in a good way - sculpting right before bedtime lol, very relaxing)
I'm firm Instagram and I couldn't wait to learn from the best beard and fur sculptor Ive ever seen! Great work on the video and I hope you do more if you can!
Came from Reddit, really nice vid man, looking forward to more if you do more. Would love to see cloth, like cloaks, tabards etc if you're thinking of doing more.
came here after another youtuber, Jam's Mini Mods, mentioned you in one of his videos about sculpting beards. i'm going to start sculpting greenstuff beards/hair on astra militarum dudes, and this was such an eye-opener on what you can achieve. super informative and insightful, cheers!
@@jarlvalbjorn I have the same situation. Found you on Instagram. As they say here in Russia, "У тебя золотые руки (You have golden hands)." Unrealistically cool.
Excellent video, loved the advice. I've just been doing a mutated lion pelt on my chapter master and Im going to use this technique on the mane tomorrow and give him an awesome beard like your space wolves 👍😁
Absolutely phenomenal video. I'm not very good at manipulating green stuff, but this gave me enough confidence to start giving beards a shot. Thanks much!
really nice work! fellow space wolves collector here, i have "mastered" the furs, but i havent done any beards or hair before, this have inspired me to try it out. great video!
Thanks for posting this tutorial, I managed to get a nice beard on one of my operatives. I 3D printed a short sleeve ball cap wearing merc, but his chin didn't print out. The new beard allowed me to save the print, and get him back into the fight. I have to add your video and sound quality are excellent for a first time video.
Fantastic work, this video is probably my favorite in sculpting hair and bears for sure. I will attempt to work the same way but on a larger size as I don't work in that scale.
Actually followed this tutorial to figure out beards for the first time with some ironhead squats, some of them have open helmets but bare chins so it a great opportunity to try it out
Really excellent tutorial :) I've recently started a project making Vostroyan Firstborn and the lack of impressive beards and moustaches on existing pieces has been a let down so far. Found this video excellent on helping me on my way
I would love too see some of the close ups you use to check your work and any more help to shape the moustache out of the beard. Once again thanks for an amazing introduction to this. I'm off to try some.
Want to say I stumbled across your channel and wanted to say wow! I’ve been wanting to covert the heads on my space wolves and you’ve shown me an awesome way to do that and it’s sooooo easy. I’ve been doing this for my new indominus box set and will have a video on my channel soon as I get more done
I just had someone tell me about your video in Facebook, I am wanting to do the exact same thing but find some different heads to do it with some custodians I want for kill team. Really is freaking awesome man.
so simple yet so complex, thank you. would love to spend one day working with you, working on my first army that just happens to be wolves so this has been fun
Found you randomly on Instagram, saw you had a beard tutorial on YT and hurried up to watch it. Two min in it was a sub for me! Great stuff dude👌🏻 As for one that has been thinking of trying this myself, but on a bigger model, like a giant. How would you do that? Could we suggest a tutorial where you throw some fur and beard/hair on a giant ? 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
I'm thinking about doing a video on why I use a toothpick haha. I feel it's a near perfect sculpting tool, it just needs a few adjustments. Working on making my own tools out of better wood.
Such a phenomenal job, great work and really helpful! I'd love to see if you do fur and pelts in a similar way, or maybe an "advanced" version to detail how you sculpt braids or other features
Thanks man! I will be doing a pelts version soon. I was also thinking the same thing for an advanced version of the beard tutorial for really tweaking it for photo quality. I'm still developing my braid technique so I want to get that down pat before I teach it. Cheers man! 🍻
Great tips here Valbjorn, ready to see more! How do you clean your minis from molding? And any chance for a video showing the painting process? Nicely done
I'd love to do a video on sprue line removal! I really enjoy it, haha. I use mostly xacto knife, files and padded 3m fine sandpaper. I'll put it in the queue for videos for sure.
You peeked my interest. You had me at “I want this guy to like like he walked off the planes of fuxking Fenris.”

Thank you!
The magic you created in 30mins. Just wow!
Jarl Valbjorn himself! I had no idea you did RUclips tutorials!? You’ve easily been one of my biggest inspirations into the hobby for the last 2 years and the reason I started using green stuff 👌🏻
This is such a cool thing to hear - Thanks so much the kind words!
Just found and followed this tutorial! It has made my new leagues of Votann models soooo much better. I love seeing them with big traditional dwarf beards. Thank you!!
So glad you like it, man, thank you for the kind words. I have the new votann box myself and look forward to adding my own beards.
Just over the top amazing results man, you make it looks effortless. Fantastic video.
I like that it's a full realtime video as well without a bunch of edits, so people get a realistic idea of the effort required.
I really appreciate your comment! Going forward I'll be embracing this style and just going for it on each tutorial.

Thanks for the priase, man! I hope you give it a shot. It can be really rewarding.
Yooure INCREDIBLE!!!!!! Im SO grateful that youre giving away this amazing knowledge for free!!!
No worries man! Really glad you found it useful ☺️
These are amazing. Thanks for this great tutorial. My wolves are about to get a whole lot more beardier. The tip for changing the ratio for the blue is a game changer.
Thanks man!
Not only great sculpt but fantastic explanation of what you are doing and why. Inspired me! Thanks
This tutorial was perfect man! Thankyou!

the vaguely cruddy mic
the smooth dulcet tones of your voice
the pacing of the tutorial
a+, i'm ready for bed (in a good way - sculpting right before bedtime lol, very relaxing)
This is really heartwarming and I appreciate it greatly! Thanks for the kind words, man.
Your so good at everything green stuff. So glad I found your video's. Thank you so much man.
Anytime man
Here from instagram! Love your work, amped to try this myself 😁
Don't be shy to send me progress shots on insta, would love to see them.
Holy..... the way that beard just formed is amazing! It blew my mind! I am totally using this and sharing this video with everyone I can. Brilliant!
Thank you! I appreciate you doing that, man, seriously! 🙏
I'm firm Instagram and I couldn't wait to learn from the best beard and fur sculptor Ive ever seen! Great work on the video and I hope you do more if you can!
Thank you!
Came from Reddit, really nice vid man, looking forward to more if you do more. Would love to see cloth, like cloaks, tabards etc if you're thinking of doing more.
Thanks! And definitely. I'd like to do a tutorial on all the techniques I use.
Real good tutorial! Thanks, mate!
No worries man!
@Valbjorn Definitely the best Space Wolves conversions I have seen! Looking forward to more
Thank you! I'll be painting soon, I think, so stay tuned!

Just sculpted my first Night Lord head with your amazing tutorial.
I love the Night Lords - they might just be my favorite legion.. If only they had more beards! haha
I've just found your instagram account, and holly molly... amazing stuff! And you even do video tutorials.. c'mon, amazing!
Cheers man, thanks!
@@jarlvalbjorn I have the same situation. Found you on Instagram. As they say here in Russia, "У тебя золотые руки (You have golden hands)." Unrealistically cool.
@@jes_oz873 thank you, I'm honored to hear you say that
i wish i could like this twice! so good
This tutorial is amazing. Thank you, there are almost no hair greenstuff tutorials, facial hair or otherwise around and you did great.
Thank you so much! Really appreciate the kind words
The look and the flow of the hair and beard is fireeee. Great tutorial 🔥🔥🔥
you do an incredibly nice job with those toothpics and im browsing the net for days looking at sculpturs. Bonus, I learned what a widow's peak is.
Thanks a lot man! 😁
Amazing work, I had to watch it in parts since I got quite dizzy due to the constant camera shake, but truly inspiring and amazing work.
Really appreciate the tutorial. This is very helpful
Glad it's useful, thank you 🙏
Wow dude, crazy work, impressive
Thanks man!
Awesome tutorial! I wanna try this now
Glad you like it!
You should make a basing video!
I actually have one up!
Awesome video man! I also came from reddit, very impressive work here, hope to see more in the future. Subscribed!

Amazing! Keep up the great work!
Will do, thank you!

Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words.
@@jarlvalbjorn You're welcome, also beards... not bears. Although the technique would probably look great on bears too. haha

No prob dude! Glad you found it useful

Never tried greenstuff but after watching your videos I’m on gonna give it a try thanks for the amazing videos
Anytime! Glad I could help
Love the music and the work this was dope

Amazing tutorial!!! I'm definitely trying this tonight! Thanks
Anytime! Glad it helped
Great tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing. I’ve been looking for something like this a long time.
Thanks so much!
Amazing to hear how you do these, absolutely convinced me on giving toothpicks a try as well!
Thanks man! Hope it works for you.
So cool. I'm going to have to stop painting everything in sub-assemblies to try this.
Amazing skill! Great work!
Amazing tutorial, gonna make my space dawgs look so much better! Thank you!
great video! Been wanting to give sculpting green stuff a go for a while and this has given me an enormous amount of inspiration!
Sorry for the late reply! That's awesome to hear, I hope it's going well for you! 👍🏻👍🏻

Phenomenal man. This is going to come in incredibly useful
Cheers man, thank you!
Thanks for the great tutorial dude!
Yeah man! Thank you 🙏🏻
Been working with milliput, miiiiiiiiiight have to give green stuff a try.
Yeah for hair and beards, green stuff I better if you're sculpting like this. Milliput can be great with patience and a different approach.
A very good tutorial!
Thanks so much 😊
Looks amazing. Wonder how it would look on an ork. Thanks for the tips
Amazing! Thank you

Incredible tutorial!
Well done, convinced me to subscribe with this video.
Thanks man, I hope you make some badass beards.
Actually taking your concept and using it for hair. Can't represent the 3rd without luscious hair 😂
Thanks for this. I'm about to start sculping hair for my hair-metal glam rock orks, so this was helpful. 😄
awesome! great application
I just had someone tell me about your video in Facebook, I am wanting to do the exact same thing but find some different heads to do it with some custodians I want for kill team. Really is freaking awesome man.
Sweet man! Glad it's useful
Looks super nice and realistic. When will you show us some painted models??? Can't wait
Thank you! Not sure on paint, hopefully soon!
Great tutorial, very good explanations and amazing skills. Suscribed!😊
Really helpful tutorial. Thank you for sharing 💪🏻
Amazing skill. I would never in a million years, have considered using a toothpick, to achieve those results. Subbed.
Thanks man! More videos coming soon
It’s incredible how well you do this lol i really hope I can pick it up like that!

Tremendous. Very helpful - thanks!
Nice job man, i love
I want make beard like u
Hell yea dude! Been waiting for this
and another good idea to add to the plan of kitbashing a techpriest i mean the idea of a techpriest whit a meterlong beard sounds nice
I'm with you on that one!
Would you be willing to do some more sculpting videos showing how you did other hair styles such as some of the ones on your Instagram?
Absolutely! I wanted to do a few on utility stuff like bases and rivets but I would really like to revisit the hair and beards.
Hey Brother Wolf it is I Ejay, great tutorial man!!
Thanks dude!
best tutorial i ever seen, please make one how to sculpt ultramarines robes.
I might do some cloak tutorial once I get into it 👍🏻
