This one is not a 60 minute paint job! Trying something a little different, let me know what you think in the comments! Music by Denis Pavlov from Pixabay
Genuinely makes me want to start painting the boys in blue, this is a fantastic video and an even better paintjob! If you don't mind, what camera do you use to record? So crisp.
@@chrisminipaints I appreciate the swift reply! Would it help if I thin them down even more? The way your oils flow around the edges/reassesses is amazing, so crisp
I've recently been lamenting the state of youtube warhammer painting videos recently, there's too many gimmicks and everyone covers the same things, ironically while trying to avoid doing simple painting videos. I really appreciated watching your video, it was a great, high quality video of well done paintjobs, just what I want! Subbed.
The aim with these videos is for them to be more visual, I think there are a lot of great videos out there to teach and I am not sure that is my strong point. I could maybe add a subtitled commentary? Thanks for the suggestion though, I will think how I can work something in.
@@chrisminipaints Thanks. The part I was trying to figure out was at about 4 min where you make a panel lining wash with what looks like oil paint. What did you thin the oil paint with and did you do anything to get it to flow into the recesses.
Hey Chris, great video again. Question about Molotow. I have tried them a few years back as Marco Frisoni has recommended them even as a sort of primer replacement. That being said I have always had absolutely atrocious results with them. They never seem to stick. I have even come back days after the initial airbrush coat only to have the paint rub off in my hands. Is there a secret to using this paint or what?
I haven't used them as a primer myself, I have noticed some problems when using contrast paint over them. Locking in with varnish will probably help but I am still experimenting with them a bit.
Hey Alex, maybe try to remove the oils and fats from your fingers / assembly before priming. Maybe that helps, I’m still unsure why some primers stick and some not. Also Vallejo has at times inconsistent quality, so in can happen for example 1 out of 10 primers is bad. Hope that helps. Cheers
@@ricardoflummiremus so I actually have tried this - over time I've become a bit more anal in terms of how I prep models, and most models I will actually wash in sunlight dish soap once I am done assembly. Admittedly the first time I did NOT do this when trying to raw dog Molotow paints like Marco Frisoni does... but the second time I tried I was dilligent and it still rubbed off. I found similar issues with scalecolour paints. Meanwhile TTC, Vallejo, GW, and AK all seem to stick wonderfully. Any other ideas though I am open to suggestions.
The paint used is Molotow Shock Blue Middle, Hex value is #59a8cd as for Citadel equivalent, I am not sure, I don't have one that would quite match, Temple Guard Blue is not far off but I think it would need to be lightened a little.

Good job Brother Chris. Courage and Honour! For the Emperor. For Ultramar. For Macragge!
what a beautifully painted kill team! the color palette is very vibrant, lush, and full of life!
Thanks!
Genuinely makes me want to start painting the boys in blue, this is a fantastic video and an even better paintjob! If you don't mind, what camera do you use to record? So crisp.
I use a Canon EOS R50. Not sure I would recommend it as such it does have limitations.
You are making it look so easy and relaxing, but when I'm doing it, it's the opposite🥲 great job👍
Well done Sir.
Question: Do you have to use oil paints to add the shading 'lines' in the reassesses? Or can I use something like nuln oil washes? Great video btw!
Nuln oil or other washes are fine. You just have to be more careful as it won't run into the recesses as easily.

You can try flow improver if you have it. Might work, I haven't tried it in a while.
@@chrisminipaints I really appreciate you taking the time to respond! Great content sir, glad I found your channel. All the best!

Thank you for the kind words, I really enjoyed making this one. I am not trying to do anything special, just trying to show the paint process.
I like that you show the paints, but please consider adding a voiceover to describe your technique and and why you chose it.

Very cool. What thinner did you use for your citadel paints?
Tamiya X20-A!

@@chrisminipaints alright sounds good - seems you had a relatively good experience with them this time. Let me know if you find hiccups or hacks

Chris, do you know what would the Citadel equivalent be for the “aquamarine” blue used for the light effect? (second blue paint)
The paint used is Molotow Shock Blue Middle, Hex value is #59a8cd as for Citadel equivalent, I am not sure, I don't have one that would quite match, Temple Guard Blue is not far off but I think it would need to be lightened a little.
@@chrisminipaintsthank you!!!
