It's funny, practically every week something comes out where I think "oh I want to paint that," but I have never in my entire life thought that I wanted to paint a Death Guard model. It feels like painting a cold. But really enjoyed this tutorial.
These sculpts are truly beautiful. Really looking forward to getting around to this guy in particular. GW really knocked the Dearh Guard out of the park. Can’t think of a single sculpt that isn’t awesome and doesn’t nail their feel.
Again regarding my other comment, could you tell me the product number for the Vallejo Dark Aluminium paint you are using? I am unsure whether I got the right one since the one I got is supposed to be an airbrush paint.
77.703 is the one - I don't use it on a wet palette - I just put some into a dry palette well - it needs to be very well shaken - and is a lot thinner than normal acrylics as it is designed for an airbrush - the coverage is still great with a normal brush however
@@ThePaintingCoach Thank you. I will try it with a dry palette and experiment more. I have used the paint on some models (particularly my Night Lords Kill Team) and liked the result, but I found working with it a bit hard since it also seems to separate rather quickly and the aforementioned issues on the wet palette. Hopefully I will learn to work with it better.
Funny, I just got up from painting my Death Guard Kill Team and earlier today I painted the very same model you are using in the video. While I have a set color scheme for my own models, I have a second set of them I am painting for a friend and maybe I am going to use some of the techniques used here for those to differentiate. One piece of advice regarding priming these models for other viewers: For some reason I can never get the GW Death Guard Green spray to work properly for me. It always comes out fuzzy and ruins the model. I recently purchase Death Rattle Green from The Colour Forge which is advertised as color-matched to Death Guard Green. Unfortunately I found the shades are slightly off. In that case the model has to be painted with a layer of DGG from the pot if that is the color one is aiming for. Also, I have a question regarding the Vallejo Dark Aluminum you are using. Is that the 77.703? I bought a bottle of this largely because you are using it. Turns out it is a color meant for Air brushes. I can make it work a bit by removing excess water with a paper towel, I don't think that is the intended use. It also seeps into the sponge of my wet palette which is annoying. However, that is the only Vallejo color I can find that is labeled "Dark Aluminium". Can you tell me the product number on the bottle you are using?
Same issue I had with valejo paints before I stopped using them. If your brush is already decently wet or if it holds water too well, the air paints go on and look pretty bad.
I just compared the Kill Team models with models from a regular Death Guard Plague Marines box. The KT models are very slightly bigger, but it is hardly noticeable if they are standing next to each other. Don't think it is really a problem.

Thanks!
Same here. This has tipped me over the edge to get the starter set. I'm going to follow your bloodraven tutorial for the marines!
Looks fantastic. That's a great rust effect! Always nice to see a Monument paint in action as well.

Another great color recipe Lloyd, well done as always 👍
Cheers Niko!
I painted the Death Guard from the chase boxes a few years ago. Thanks for the tutorial.
This is making me want to kitbash my own Nurgle-corrupted Blood Angels using that Plague Marine Killteam (whenever that comes separately)
This was great, I’m trying this out on my deathguard icon bearer.
Cool!
This looks brilliant! Thanks for the video.
Just started painting these yesterday may have to start again with this process or adapt it. Thank you 👌
Great tutorial, thank you
One or your best thank you.
Cool.
Love ya vids. You make things seem so simple to follow. A true master of his craft. On a side note…..no chrome? 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Thanks - oh there was chrome! Just before the rust effects I think?

Arent those models slightly bigger?
No mate you’re too close to the screen, making the models look bigger

No
