Subbed, liked and marathonning all your videos. As a complete beginner that will be painting my first miniature in December, your videos are proving incredibly helpful! Concise, to the point with examples. Great content.
Agreed. I’m just getting into the hobby because I miss painting on canvas. Well… my house, my painting area, and my time are much more constricted from before. Not to mention the price of canvas is 400% more than it used to be! If I wanted to paint a bunch of postage stamp pictures, it would be great, but seriously, who does that? Thank you so much for the comprehensive tutorial. It makes a world of difference!
I just want to say this is the best beginner's guide for painting. It's direct to the point, no unnecessary joking around, and very practical tips in all the phases of painting. Thank you very much for this! I now have the courage to try and paint!
I’ve been looking for someone who actually gives a proper walkthrough on painting miniatures. This has helped so much. I’ve been stocking up on minis to paint, but just haven’t know how to start.
I'm painting for 5 years now, but i'll never be able to explain the basics that well. Good job Zumikito! I'll recommend this video to my freinds for sure.
I'm about to start painting for the first time and I have found this video to be by far the best one I have found online you actually covered everything step by step in an understandable way and your other videos have been a big help also, thank you for what you do.
Been watching your videos for a good long while now and just wanted to say I love your painting style and videos. Super approachable videos that make you want to paint afterwards rather than be intimidated.
I love that you show the mixing of the paint and how thin you really go with oyur painting. This helps to understand the video more and the principles behind the technics. Other people I watched just said theyy go thin and I couldn't really tell what they meant
Just sent this to my Son, as he want's to start painting Miniatures. I told him your videos helped me a lot and you are a great guy and produce great video's.
Great job! The only thing I would change is the order of the "before" and "after" results. Usually the things "before" are on the left and the things "after" on the right.
Late to the party. Best tutorial I’ve seen. Complimentary colors is the most important lesson for me. I have never been good with colors and that is why I have procrastinated literally for decades. Yes, decades. Thank you for sharing.
I've just got started in painting minis myself and although I've watched a lot of tutorial videos, this is the one I keep coming back to. Simple and clear instructions about several great techniques.
Thank you for this video I really enjoyed how you tackled three different miniatures and really showed the difference in styles and techniques in your advice. If I had this 37 years ago when I started painting miniatures I would be Picasso today. Unfortunately I’m now just getting back into the hobby in my late 40s and your video here has really helped me relax into it. I’m going to be learning airbrushing too so more messing up but that’s OK. Be well be you
I've watched a lot of painting tutorials over time and this was a particularly great one. Lots of great tips, several different sample models, and you despite being a 30 minute video, all your points were still made conisely (you just had a lot of points to make!). Great job, I will be sticking around for more!
The beard grows longer and so does your passion for the hobby. Dunno if you remember me in comments under your first videos, but anyway, thanks and warm greets.
I've been watching already hundreds of videos (literal) from many different RUclipsrs to start painting (vacations, watching on the ⛱️). Boy this guide is awesome. I love your videos, your coverage and your "to the point" attitude is the best. kudos!
Great video, thank you. I've been painting forever, but now my son is showing an interest, and this video does a really great job of the basics of brush painting that I wish I had known (and could see) when I started. You've managed to show the good old fashioned basics here that are so easy to lose with everything else these days (oils, inks, airbrush, even contrast paints etc...). So well done, and thank you again.
This is the best beginner's video for miniature painting I've seen. I am now using it to introduce people to the hobby and being a foreigner myself, I love that your English is heavily accented like mine. Kudos!
I've subscribed to your channel because this particular video (I've watched a couple others) is essential, in my humble opinion, for people wanting to start painting miniatures, maybe not as a full-featured tutorial but as a very wide guide of principles and (for me the most important and valuable part) giving a clear image of what are you going to find when you start painting miniatures. The only think I miss in this video, which can be seen in some of the takes like the belly of the Charizard, is miniature surface preparation to make sure all surfaces are smooth and regular so relatively large areas of single colors with no texture do not reveal flaws in the manufacturing process. I've been painting for a long time (not as well as you, not by a VERY LONG shot, you're a very good artist) and one of the things that clearly improved my results, since I was not able to spend a lot in high quality miniatures, was surface preparation. In short, filling and sanding surfaces. Of course, now with 3D printing the surfaces are usually very good already, and for some high quality injected models even mold lines are barely visible, but I have spent quite a good amount of time preparing the surfaces of lesser quality miniatures so they appeared much better than they were at first. I understand that this video could not stop at those details, and I've seen your miniatures and you do some surface preparation or you are AN EXTREMELY GOOD painter and can disguise some surface flaws and blemishes with your paint (I can't, I'm not that good 🤣), so don't take this as a negative criticism of the video, which is GREAT, it's just it's something I missed and that took me some time to learn when I first started painting a veeeeery long ago. Nice video, really, I liked it VERY much 😊
This is probably my favorite video you've done, not only is it super informative every time I go back and watch it, it's nice and long so I can watch it and just listen lol
biggest tip i can give while learning, watch not only this guide, but maybe 4 or 5, because everyone has different techniques, and some work flows and painting techniques might fit your work style or aesthetics better
Very good video. I'm trying to get into painting miniatures cause my goal is to one day paint my Dark Souls board game miniatures in a way, they look as close to their in-game models. But before I touch them, I want to be sure of my skills, so I'm going to start by practicing on Warhammer miniatures then hopefully within some number of months I can the Dark Souls duders. This video helped a ton and I'll be sure to refer to it often. Thank you soooo much.
I am coming back to the hobby after a long break and watching a lot of videos and this was the best basics/refresher I've seen. You're work is amazing and you are now my "go - to" for painting advice and have already subscribed. Also your beard is almost as awesome as mine!!! 😁
I never take time to sub to any channels.. made an exception for you. It's really amazing :) wann start to paint minis and all your crazy videos will help!
I am about to paint my very first miniature and I already watched a looot of videos. But yours are by far the most informative and most fun to watch. I feel like I learned more by watching a hand full of your videos than spending days watching other youtubers! Really appreciate your work here! Thanks and greetings from Germany!
This video was so much more helpful and informative than the video i first used to learn how to paint minis. Ive been painting minis for a while and i cant wait to compare my old minis to my new ones after ive used what youve shown, so thank you so much
If I ever have to introduce somebody to the hobby, I will show them Brent's beginner video and this one, so they have a stressless and smooth entry. Very well done!!! You can clearly see all the work, time and dedication that went into this project.
This helps a lot for me since I’ve just got into painting warhammer models with my orks and it’s better to practice on multiple model units before character models for practice as I’m wanting to do as good as I can for my character models
Thanks for the tips. I paint Nolzur minis for D&D with Army painter stuff and use some Citadel metallics which Army dosent have. Im also using the Citadel mini holder to some degree. And whys theres a lack of brass metallic colors? Gold, silver even bronze and copper are easier to find. Brass color FYI is the color usually found on trumpets, tubas etc. Copper with zinc gives brass, copper with tin gives bronze.
This was a great video. I’ve painted on and off for many years but have gotten more serious about painting miniatures in my board games. Wish I’d had this to watch years ago.
In the video you say you should, "glue the minifigures together first." I am curious why everyone says this. I will cut the parts off a tree, "clean them" of extra plastic, and gather them together to keep figure parts straight. I put on base coats and layer coats before gluing. I feel that before shading and final details/highlights, that yes it should be together for consistency (although watching your "never use Nuln Oil again" video I might not). What are your thought/feels about why you should put them together first?
So glad my colleague showed me this. I was so afraid to get my first W40K miniature that I will mess up the paint job but you explained it perfectly. Now I cant wait to get my hands on it :D
Very very helpful m8. Thanks alot for your work and detailed explainment. Iam pretty new to this hobby and iam watching alot vids atm. Again, thanks alot!!!
When it comes to painting bases i tend to do the model first and base after when it's for army painting with the texture paints, since I find it to add some more "realism" when you accidentally get some (read, SOME) of the texture paint on the shoes and stuff which kinda makes it look like there's some dirt and shit that's been kicked up on the feet/boots/whatevs while, you know, fighting an other army.
7:29 When I add at least a little water to the paint, there are always two problems. 1. the paint falls on the figure unevenly 2. It is mainly applied in such a thin layer that it almost does not paint over the elements of the figure.
Zumikito you are the best! Even if I am not a beginner painter your material helps me to get more people into the hobby. Thanks! Keep doing what you do
Wow! This video is chock full of excellent content. You really leave no stone unturned. Definitely a must-watch for anyone new to the hobby. I may start giving this video a shoutout in my own tutorial vids since I'm targeting beginners. Really amazing work!
Thank god your channel is a thing 🙌 I'm doing my 1st paints on some 40k necrons and astarties and I feel like I've got a much better idea on where to start 😀
That brush looks incredible. You even do metallics and it stays in good shape. What's the trick beside not getting paint on the ferrule and let it dry downward
Thank you for this great video)). I'm a beginner in painting and my problem that i can't control water in brush and mix colours. Maybe i don't have much experience.)
I wanted to see as many tutorials as possible before painting my first miniature but fortunately I saw your tutorial which, for me, is complete (for the moment). What I didn't understand or missed is when the second layer of paint of a color is applied: after the first layer of that color dries or after the first layer of all colors dries?
I just found your channel today and particularly this video I just wanted to say Thank you! You made it easy and simple to follow. Great content and please keep up the great work!
Awesome video! I hate to break your heart though, at 28:28, the spider symbol on Spider-man's back is red, not black. Otherwise, amazing job! Next time you should paint Blastoise.
To be honest this is the best ever guide on painting miniatures I've ever seen. I love how everything was explained without assuming watcher knows everything about priming, layering ... Really good job! Just one question: As you have shown there is the possibility of printing miniatures via 3D printes, which one would you recommend that gives enough quality without spending a kidney on buying it?
Thank you for such a nice comment! I have made a video about anycubic printer which costs like 250$ or so, feel free to watch that video. It's also way faster than older models and apparently Anycubic has a Mother's day sale running currently. Hope that helps!
A very basic question on loading up the brush. Was watching another video, and was getting into the habit of rinsing the brush every minute. That would mean not loading the brush up as much. With your approach of mixing and rolling the brush in the paint on the pallette to really load it up, I guess the idea is that the amount of paint means the brush won't dry out quickly, so you can use it all without rinsing till changing colour?
One thing I'd add, if you paint for a long time continously, and feel like it's still missing something - put it down, and get back to it tomorrow. Maybe with a fresh eye you will see better what needs to be done, or you can conclude that it is already fine for your purposes.

You killed the game with your videos 🙏 I finally understand highlights and others things after tons of videos

I finished painting my first mini thanks to the help of this guide. It came out in a way I'm very proud of, thank you so much for making these!
Just sent this to my Son, as he want's to start painting Miniatures.
I told him your videos helped me a lot and you are a great guy and produce great video's.
Great job! The only thing I would change is the order of the "before" and "after" results. Usually the things "before" are on the left and the things "after" on the right.
That is a good point! Hopefully it's not all that confusing since it's visible what stage is the miniature at. I will keep that in mind 👌
This was a very very easy and good refresh on how to paint minis. Easy to follow and learn in theory. Underrated video!

Best comprehensive video on painting for beginners. All techniques without fancy names and explained in the simplest way. Congratulations!
I seriously LOVE your painting style! The vibrant colors and shades match are very aesthetically appealing to me!

this is just PHENOMENAL such amazing work and so much talent thank you for the top tier entertainment!
Firstly, incredible video. Secondly, you have such mastery that it is easy to forget these things are an inch tall. Minblowing.

Great stuff, these kinds of guides are a wonderful resource for the community! I also thought you're choice of minis here was fun and refreshing! 😁
Haha I tried my best to choose variation to show different techniques instead of space marine 3 times :) thanks!
I'm not really into painting, but I bought the Hero Quest Board Game, and it comes with almost 40 miniatures! Thanks for the video! I'll do my best!
This guide is one of the best I've scene. Fantastic vid!
I appreciate it 🙌
3.999 c'mon guys . this is a really good tutorial for all beginners! give him sone love!
naprosto úžasné video, moc díky - asi nejlepší video pro začátečníky co jsem viděl
Amazing video. Simple but it covers so much. Really good job! Also the minis looks amazing.
There are many paint tutorials out there. This one is certainly among the very best. Kudos!
Thank you!
Best beginners guide and I've watched a lot of them
Best Turtorial for beginners. Thank you a lot for spending your time in this great Video. Give us more 👍🏻
So glad my colleague showed me this. I was so afraid to get my first W40K miniature that I will mess up the paint job but you explained it perfectly. Now I cant wait to get my hands on it :D
Awesome tutorial ! Thanks my friend.

"put your clippers close to your bits but still leave some space there"
very important tip, even in non-miniature contexts.
7:29
When I add at least a little water to the paint, there are always two problems.
1. the paint falls on the figure unevenly
2. It is mainly applied in such a thin layer that it almost does not paint over the elements of the figure.
1. Use matte medium instead of water
2. See #1
Very good video!. Perfect example on how to approach to painting miniatures from the begining to the end. Thumbs up!
Glad you liked it!
Thank you very much man, I'm starting with this hooby with my D&D minis and a guide like this helps me alot.
I cannot believe you're in Pilipintados!
Can't wait to see more of your content!
I am everywhere haha, thank you!
26:40 that's.......amazing.
This was very well done. I'm sending new mini painters straight to this video from now on.
Super video! I applauded for $10.00 👏👏👏
Eyyy, third person ever to applaud to me, thank you! :)
Your videos are great - easily the best I've found on RUclips. My painting has improved so much already. Thank you.
Not really a beginner any more but I still find a lot of useful information out of this video. This is a great guide, thank you for uploading this!
It's my pleasure!
An extremely valuable video for new members of the miniature painting community 🫶 Job well done, sir!
Zumikito you are the best! Even if I am not a beginner painter your material helps me to get more people into the hobby. Thanks! Keep doing what you do
Happy to hear that!
Wow! This video is chock full of excellent content. You really leave no stone unturned. Definitely a must-watch for anyone new to the hobby. I may start giving this video a shoutout in my own tutorial vids since I'm targeting beginners. Really amazing work!
Thank you!
Thank god your channel is a thing 🙌 I'm doing my 1st paints on some 40k necrons and astarties and I feel like I've got a much better idea on where to start 😀
Hell yea!
Wow! Best guide I've seen. Everything in one place and well demonstrated. Thank you !
I really needed a refresh after 20 something year ... Ty I subscribed cause I am painting armies again
Very Good Video! Primaris outriders, are you starting a Space Marine Army?
I am expanding my existing sons of the phoenix!
Awesome video, I'm getting back into painting after taking a long hiatus, this is exactly what I needed!
That brush looks incredible. You even do metallics and it stays in good shape. What's the trick beside not getting paint on the ferrule and let it dry downward
I'm not a beginner but I watched it entirely, great job 👏
My personal favorite budget paint handle is wine corks with blue tack. I always ask friends and relatives for extra wine corks.
Es el video mejor explicado y más motivador que he visto en yt ❤
Dude you make this look so easy lol ugh I think what’s stunted my painting growth is painting RG black armor 😢
This is a marvelous guide my friend! I really like the structure and the way you guide each step!!
Thank you for the hard work and the wonderful video. I am trying to get the hang of it and I appreciate all of the tips. It is a wonderful tutorial.
I wish I found your guide sooner
Really an amazing guide!
Love your work!!!
I like a sharizard! 🥰🐶
Always a pleasure to see your videos. Great step by step summary.
This was an amazing tutorial thank you!
Another top notch video my friend, slaying it!
Thank you!
All the hard work definitely paid off, great guide!
Thank you for this great video)). I'm a beginner in painting and my problem that i can't control water in brush and mix colours. Maybe i don't have much experience.)
Such a great overview! Thanks for presenting in this way
Great stuff friend 👏 👍

Thank you! That is something I can live with 😁
To be honest this is the best ever guide on painting miniatures I've ever seen. I love how everything was explained without assuming watcher knows everything about priming, layering ...

Thanks for this amazing tutorial :)
Love this video! Such a simple step by step thanks a lot man! Can’t imagine how long this video took to make.
thank you! It took 3 weeks of work and over 100 hours :)
I wish had this movie on beginning of my journey with painting miniatures
Amazing guide to start painting. Thank you very much.
A very basic question on loading up the brush. Was watching another video, and was getting into the habit of rinsing the brush every minute. That would mean not loading the brush up as much.
With your approach of mixing and rolling the brush in the paint on the pallette to really load it up, I guess the idea is that the amount of paint means the brush won't dry out quickly, so you can use it all without rinsing till changing colour?
Wheter you wick off the excess or not is dependant on what you are doing - glazing and layering, I wick it off, if I basecoat, not reaply necessary
Awesome to see that Space Marine Scouts were your first miniatures as it was also for mine :D
I am not exactly sure if it was THE first, but certainly one of the first ones :) cheers
One thing I'd add, if you paint for a long time continously, and feel like it's still missing something - put it down, and get back to it tomorrow. Maybe with a fresh eye you will see better what needs to be done, or you can conclude that it is already fine for your purposes.
