In the video you said on the nmm gold you started with xv-88 then Baylor brown. I would have thought you would start dark and work light. Maybe you just misspoke. I'm genuinely curious because I'm trying to get a handle on nmm.
One day I hope that I may be able to get you to paint one of my warhammer figures, it would absolutely be an honor! I’m new to the hobby and love it already but lack the tools to properly paint my figures at the current moment. Having a mini painted by you would be amazing, not only to use as a playable piece but a conversation piece, your work is amazing and I appreciate the time you put into making these videos because I enjoy them very much and find them very helpful! @maverickspaint
Man I've been watching you stuff since day 1 you came out of nowhere with the best gory paint jobs. I see your stuff pop up all over the place. Epically the space marine with the convertible treatment 😂 my name on here used to be Clay P. I'm digging the longer format. I know this is 9 months old but I really hope you got threw covid alright. I had it 3 times last year. Every time with different symptoms.
Now you just need to copy this painting guide on the another 2000pts of minis, and you'll be set to play the game 😆😆😆 That's a great mini; thanks for sharing it with us. 👍
@@MaverickNicolson I'm waiting to be able to afford it but same I knew about the books and lore you got me into minis and I just wanna paint like you idc about tabel top stats I've never done it once. I can't wait to start and upload a video of my first I'ma use your tips
@@MaverickNicolson as I subscribed and watched starter box video i am REALLY considering doing exactly the same as Pisal. Only thing blocking me is that I already bought 1:18 figure and I have to wait for next month to not spend too much money lol!
Killer production value, great editing, awesome painting, and a fantastic concept you have discovered with Plastic Surgery. I would watch this series for decades. Every mini tells a story! Thanks for sharing this Maverick, I am a huge fan! 🔥🔥🔥
Your humility is what makes you great, you were able to recognize your short comings and continue to press forward, this what allows us to improve. Continue to Slay the day🔥
French guy here 👋 Just wanted to say that your videos are the reason I started painting my old miniatures again, so, thank you ! You’re such a source of inspiration that I showed your shorts to all my friends, and now they want to join my painting sessions too 😆 I hope you’ll continue to make quality content like that !
I really thank you for all the efforts you put into painting, editing and advicing us with a lot of precious tricks, this new long format is the best ever created. Please keep up the superb work!! 🙏
Man... hands down, you are one of my favourite content creators when it comes to minis. I've found your painting style very appealing, and I'm glad you are lean towards creating longer tutorial-like videos. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and work with us! Keep it grim!
@@MaverickNicolson Yeah I find when I am going from black to yellow, white, red, pink etc that I look for something that will aid in the shading process. Take out a layer to get to the highlight by adding one back in the shading process. A shortcut. For example, I want yellow so I start with browns, I want pink so I start with creams. I want white I start with a cream/grey. this also then becomes my glaze later on when I highlight to bring the shades back and smooth out the transition. This waffling aside I really like what you do here. Cant wait to see more.
Thank you for the longer and more in depth videos. I've been implementing a lot of your style into my new Adepta Sororitas army lately because it just looks so good.
Dude! You’re amazing! You have many fans and some of your work is inspiration for a diorama I’m planning and hoping to enter at Adepticon next year (hope, but we’ll see).
Holy hell that's good! With the shorts the models look really good but actually getting to see it come together is amazing. It's actually quite theraputic, I love watching the colours slowly come together on a blank base coat, like the model is coming alive. The music is killer too, really nice match for the vibe of the channel
Great stuff!! Back in the old days we used pine sol to strip painted models, but I think that melts or softens most plastics today. And yes, I agree the original paint job was amazing.
I started following your insta ages ago just for the brutal minis and now I find an awesome dude that makes badass minis and makes me glad to be part of the warhammer community.
I love your painting method of going piece by piece and being as careful as possible, it’s almost meditative. It shows a serious amount of respect for your work and I’m sure the when Matt gets this model back he’s going to be blown away.
Dear Sir, your technique is amazing and you have helped me a lot on this new journey of Warhammer (began 2 months ago) Thank you so much! When I'm older i wanna paint like you ❤
I'm currently waiting for my first ever minis and paints to be delivered today (UPS takes SO LONG ;-; ). I've never been artsy in any form, but I think mini painting could be up my alley and it's 100% because of this channel.
dude, its such a good hobby. Youre gonna struggle at first but honestly, just remember that the best part of the hobby is that every single model is going to look better than the last. That constant progress is pure dopamine.
Hey Maverick I really like your videos and the techniques shown make me get better and better as a beginner in the hobby. I am really excited that you are a "proper youtuber" now and hope that you will provide us with more amazing videos like this one. Never stop dude you are an inspiration.
You're the sole reason i strife to get better at painting. Looking at your painting approach leaves me completely in awe of your talent. Please do more Long Videos and Tutorials. Can't wait for a long NMM Tutorial. Thx for you being you in the grimdark future that is W40K. Simping done, gotta get back to painting.
Mavericks Paint, along with eBay Miniature Rescue, are the real 4th Emergency Service. The pixel-grafix on this channel are wonderful. For me, Black Templars, Sisters of Battle and the Inquisition are the twisted soul of the Grim Dark; and John Blanche is one of our greatest tour guides. The rule book for the Inquisition game is peak 40k ("Everything you have been told is a lie!" sums up my vision of the 40k setting). The point on the brush in this video is amazing. Great control. All the best with getting over the dreaded COVID.
YES. A black Templar finally!!!!! I purchased a castelan from EBay painted kinda of similar to the original design just so I had a “decently painted model” to look at for ideas. It’s insane how good this came out.
Oh Man! I've just been diagnosed with chronic depression & anxiety 5:11 and turned to warhammer40k to do something with my hands and get away from the screens of my desk job. I'm so new to #warhammer40k and you @mavericks paints are one of the key influences I look up to so I can create my first army 💜🎉
I just started painting some WorldEaters and Thousand sons. I struggled a lot but when I watched this video it really did help. I know this vid is about a Black Templar and not you know WorldEaters or Thousand Sons. But this video really did help a lot, I watched over the video a bunch of times just to see how I should or can improve on my Models. I started about a few weeks ago, I really have noticed a difference. I absolutely LOVE to paint these figures and just watching these videos makes me want to paint them Even More I swear! Great job with the paints, I know I definitely couldn’t paint something as good as you do for quite awhile.
Matt seems like me! One of the main reasons I started warhammer was because of the miniature painters and your shorts were one of the first that drew me in!
I love your channel and your very unique approach. Also really cool you're doing long form content. Really enjoy both these and the shorts. Keep up the amazing work!
You're actually the whole reason I've been wanting to get better at painting. Your painting just always looks so great. I've been watching your videos and am currently working on a captain messinius model im painting as an imperial fist. I'm hoping to use your streaking grime tutorial to add some depth. It's not coming out great, but im gonna stay at it! Might have to pick up a few more captain messinius models 😂😂😂
Kudos for the color scheme!!! Had me at the second minute ❤❤😂😂 thanks for the video! Btw, great idea showcasing the artworks before starting. It really set the mood and background for the inspiration!
This was a really great watch, thanks for all the really niche but insightful tips every step along the way! It really tops the cherry on your amazing work!
I’ve been struggling with a way to paint my Templars and looked at a bunch of videos on how to paint black armor and such and I even tried my own way haha. But I absolutely love the way you paint the black armor and highlight it. The way you paint is so interesting and satisfying to look at. Been on your channel for a while now and I’m loving the growth you’re experiencing! The way you paint is let’s. Big inspo for me.
aw man thanks so much. I just kind of hate committing to large strokes of color so I just dab and scratch my way around the model and slowly build it up. Its because im hesitant lol
Great video ! Thanks for the inspiration. Sorry that you got covid here in the Uk, but I hope it was worth it. I totally relate to the weird aches and pains, and the sore jaw.
You're becoming one of my fav mini painting channels duder. Great job on that Templar. Also glad to see you kicked covids butt. I lost my sense of smell for 3 weeks after i got it, had weird random aches and pains for weeks aftertoo, this was back in 2021.
Loving your content man! It's really tempting me to get into Warhammer. Keep up the good work, your content is well made and can only improve from here!
The only thing I could say would improve this content is to place the list of paints used in the description and where they were used if that's not too much extra work on your end (for people looking for a quick reference after watching the video).
I keep forgetting to pin comments. Better late than never lol.

As Maverick said, your original mini was already great, I hope you continue minipainting!
haha there you are! and my pleasure dude. It was a lot of fun. Send me your shipping info on IG also!

My car broke down too!
Thirty Five times!!!!
YOU GOTTA HELP!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
hahaha hmmmm, might need to see some proof lol
You must drive a mustang...
This was really good, I find when painting red I start with a purple base which will cover over black very well, it also helps with the shadows.
gal vorbak is kind of a burgundy and I feel the same. Purple is probably way better coverage
@@MaverickNicolson Yeah I find when I am going from black to yellow, white, red, pink etc that I look for something that will aid in the shading process.

You’re a true inspiration man, keep it up. Love seeing these
Glad to hear it man! Thanks!
you are amazing and you have a heart of gold by showing so much love to your community. Cheers man.
Man, that intro genuinely gets me excited every time i see it.
hahah awesome! I love it too
Thank you for the longer and more in depth videos. I've been implementing a lot of your style into my new Adepta Sororitas army lately because it just looks so good.
awesome! I really gotta paint one of their models. So gorgeous
Everyone talks about how well you paint (which is entirely true) but the music choices in your videos are soooo good, the synthy metal is awesome
I love it dude. Ive always been a big carpenter brut fan
@@MaverickNicolson thanks for the recommendation holyyy carpenter brut slaps just gave some of his songs a go
I just got back into the hobby after a 5 year hiatus. You’re actually the one that inspired me to get back into it.
Love the way you paint nmm i hope i can get it looking that good in time
You have the amazing ability to get me excited to paint. I’m really excited to see what other awesome tutorials and videos you start making! 😁
So relatable
Im so happy to hear that man. YOU SHOULD BE EXCITED TO PAINT!! Its an awesome hobby. Thanks so much for the kind words
Amazing paint job. Love this series
glad to hear it! thanks
Dude! You’re amazing! You have many fans and some of your work is inspiration for a diorama I’m planning and hoping to enter at Adepticon next year (hope, but we’ll see).
dude do it!! also adepticon is such a good time if youve never been
@@MaverickNicolson I’m still in the planning stages. It’s going to be a Horus Heresy era diorama…and there will be blood!
Coming back to the hobby after over 20 years away. Your vids are inspiring me before I delve into painting again.
Holy hell that's good! With the shorts the models look really good but actually getting to see it come together is amazing. It's actually quite theraputic, I love watching the colours slowly come together on a blank base coat, like the model is coming alive.
The music is killer too, really nice match for the vibe of the channel
thanks so much dude. Im glad youre enjoying it, im hoping to keep improving upon the quality
Can’t wait to see a full video on how you did purple armor. One of my favorite shorts.
Amazing paint job! Will definitely steal your recipe for black armor here ;)
haha do iiit
Great stuff!! Back in the old days we used pine sol to strip painted models, but I think that melts or softens most plastics today. And yes, I agree the original paint job was amazing.
NMM is such an intimidating procedure, and here's the man making it look like it's gravy.
I started following your insta ages ago just for the brutal minis and now I find an awesome dude that makes badass minis and makes me glad to be part of the warhammer community.
You are my hobby hero man, theres definitely a reason so many look up to you.
The editing on this video is 👌 love the paint b-roll to
someone noticed!! thanks man
That model is a really fun canvas. Sure there's a couple of gaps to fill, but I had a blast painting mine. Especially the pauldrons.
I love your painting method of going piece by piece and being as careful as possible, it’s almost meditative. It shows a serious amount of respect for your work and I’m sure the when Matt gets this model back he’s going to be blown away.
the illusion of light reflection on the helmet lenses is insane!
Wowza. Love it
Thanks so much for this. I'm slowly but surely getting back into the hobby. Your work is a huge motivation!
Dear Sir, your technique is amazing and you have helped me a lot on this new journey of Warhammer (began 2 months ago)
Thank you so much! When I'm older i wanna paint like you ❤
music hits so hard, I feel like a bad ass just sit'n on my butt watching rad videos.
Omg the close up of the helmet...the whole model is amazing looking but the detail of the helmet is insane!
haha thats why I always keep the helm separate. There was so much random detail on the sculpt of this helm
@Mavericks Paint well you done an amazing job on it, looks amazing. Can't wait for more long videos.
I'm currently waiting for my first ever minis and paints to be delivered today (UPS takes SO LONG ;-; ). I've never been artsy in any form, but I think mini painting could be up my alley and it's 100% because of this channel.

Gorgeous model and I think you nailed the John Blanche inspiration. Can't wait to see what you paint next!
thanks so much man! appreciate all these kind words from you fine folk
Dude, the copper turned out great! Easily fooled me. Loving these longer videos from you!

Amazing work and some great tips. Thankful to see another video from you
So good! I hope you'll do more full-length episodes like this

hey thanks so much! glad you like it
Awesome as always! Been following your instagram for a while and every post is awesome! Keep it up!
So hyped for the nmm for beginners - I've seen so many at this stage and your teaching methods sink in more than others.
The mini is gorgeous, but I'm impressed at how sharp the brush point is.
I've found that simple green in an ultrasonic cleaner is VERY effective in removing any paint from plastic, resin, or metal models.
I am a big fan of putting models in a bag of simple green and that bag into an ultrasonic cleaner.
oooo interesting... might have to give this a go. How long do you put it in for?

Looks like he jumped right off my old 3rd edition box. Awesome job dude.
Amazing video! Great style, production, hope you keep making more of these!!
Just an absolutely gorgeous model and paint job. Fantastic work
Thanks Carl! Glad you enjoyed
Looking these videos with a cup of tea and some crackers, what a great thing to do.
Loving your work, seeing you paint is really relaxing!
I need that model in my life. It gives some nostalgia. Sort of makes me want to find my old metal models. You blew it out of the park though.

Caught your shorts, subbed immediately. Thank you for re-inspiring me to paint
you helped me get over my paint like the box ocd and start having fun. love your content

I love the way your models come out and I use your videos and shorts as inspiration for my models keep it up man 👍
Lovely work and I am enjoying this longer format, even more so than the IG reels where it started.
happy to hear that! its a learning moment but im having fun with it!
I’m a bit new to warhammer (been in here for about a year or 2), and watching you paint is an incredible inspiration.
So happy to hear that!
