@@sylthaya7571 I don't have an explicit tutorial on wetblending right now (have one planned for next month), but i use it on my tutorials from time to time. I do have stuff however, yes. Lots of stuff ;)
@@MrSmokincodz yes, you do have access to all back issue videos and PDFs back to the very first post :) The 10$ pledge gives you both the videos and the PDFs!
Oh yeah, I’m not only going to highlight and enhance lighting, but I’m also going to free hand a fucking skull that looks as if it’s a template!!! You’re amazing man. Truly amazing
That was bloody astonishing. That's the level of skill everyone wishes they could paint at, but so few put in the effort to achieve that level of skill.
You are the best, I want to have children now just so I can name my kids after you. This is by far the most generous contribution to my technique and by sharing with us you have earned my respect and my patreon. Absolutely phenomenal technique, you are my hero...."Contrast is our friend..". You are amazing, thank you.!
haha, nice. yeah, i got that comment a loooooot about the music, even before I knew that guys channel. Upgraded to Epidemic Sound music these days, because it is more subtle, but my instinct is always to use super dramatic music like that.
@@trovarion don't worry, I really like the newer tacks as well. Keep up those dank tutorials. I would love to see your take on a Scarab Occult Terminator some day as well!
I tried this method out then used Pro Acryl translucent black over the top and it works like magic. Just gotta apply thin layers when you do it but its defiantly one of my best paint jobs I have ever did. I used an airbrush with ratios of 2 part thinner to one part translucent black if anyone is wondering.
The difference between a painter and an artist is proven in this video and shows as a painter I have still loads to learn and trial! Thanks for an interesting time.
Just started and was looking at all the black templar tutorials. This one stands out from the rest by a very, very long shot. Then again it is far less accessible for someone that's starting out, but definitely an amazing goal to strife towards. Thank you for sharing this!
Well, there is already so many "basic" painting videos, did the world really need another one? why not create something, so people that want to push themselves can learn? Thanks for your comment! keep having fun painting!
Those freehands are amazing dude! i definetly picked up some tips from these videos, i do realize i need to invest in better brushes because the inconsistent tip of cheap synthetic ones is not gonna cut it. But i also need to practice a lot to get a lot of the basics down and better so my paints jobs can keep improving. Thank you for all the amazing content you put out !
relatively young channel and the RUclips algorythm doesnt care much about small cchannels ;) The channel is growing daily, which I am very thankful for. We will get there :) Sharing on social media helps by the way ;D thanks for your kind words!
I am glad I found your tutorial. I have always been scared to paint my figures, because I am a perfectionist. I have always marveled at the world you artist create and always wanted my own army to look just as good. Watching your video, I see that I have l much to learn, but with intense watching of your videos, I feel i could understand more of what is needed for me to get the effects and awesome look that I want. The issue is doing the work and understanding the dark and shadow s of the colors I am using. I understand practice makes perfect, and by getting experience, my figures will get better in time. I will buy some easy figures to paint and graduate to harder ones. I would like to see more of your tutorials, because I feel it is the best way to understand what I need to do in this hobby. I want to thank you for offering you skills and ideas for the love of this Hobby...
It has been a really time since I bought my figures. I first tried to paint them , not knowing that their is a technique needed to paint awesome finished work. To say the least, I hated my finished work . I started reading all my White Dwarf magazines and going to Games Workshop stores, asking lots of questions. As I watch the videos on RUclips, I finally realized that I need to start painting again, and you have brought back the desire to " Get my Ass going ".. Thanks again , I like your work and tutorials..
I demand to know who the 70 people are that disliked this video. If never the word was more true, haters gonna hate. Wow Trovarion...I mean just wow dude. Def in my top 5 painters.
Beautiful work! I love the way you paint light on to your miniature in a very clear way. Also your freehand work is amazing, but the way you approach it in the video makes it much less intimidating to try. Well done!
Looked EVERYWHERE for a tutorial that moved away from that cartoonish blue highlighting for black armour. However, this video went above and beyond my expectations!!! Amazing work and I'll definitely contribute to the patreon!
you are BY FAR the best i've seen on RUclips and i love your work. Because i watched your videos alot i can now finally apply the same technique's as you do and it changes the quality so much more better than before (layering, single stripe highlight etc.). I suggest everyone at the local games- workshop to follow you ;) keep up the good work and streams! much love from the Netherlands
There is only so much copyright free music in the audio library. I am pretty sure I used other songs somewhere that 1000 other youtubers used. I have not watched a single buypainted miniatures(?) video either. I have my way of making videos and I don't need to copy anyone. Then again there is also only so many ways to hold a miniature up to a camera while you paint it.
I didn't use a single Vallejo Color for the red (from memory I used scalecolors Deep Red as a Base and then Aldebaran Red and a Skintone for highlights), but that just shows that you can use any color you would like to use, Hull Red would work perfectly fine as a base here. I try to tell and teach people not to get too stuck in recipies.
Cool vid! I would suggest instead of cutting the music completely when you talk to just fade it a little bit. As it is now it's a little bit distracting when it cuts out. Good luck!
it's not :) while I have a steady hand I actually have magnifying glasses for these small details and you can see them pop in from the lower right corner from time to time in my videos. I recommend getting some, they make painting so much more relaxing and fun!
@@trovarion I mean. if I could trade a steady hand for my decent vision I would. hahah... just awesome! Very motivational! :). I have a ring light with a magnifying glass in it that I have to learn to use more.
Love your work. I'm going to be crunching my finances soon and hopefully joining the feedback level of your patreon. I wanna push my painting and I wanna learn scultping hands on.
This is incredible! I want so badly to try it but would love to see how you do it on something larger like a Pimaris Dreadnaught. There are a lot of large flat sections that have me nervous...
Even though I’m a year late, if I pay for patreon can I still get the complete guide?
yes, all content on patreon is always watchable with an active pledge, back to the first upload!
Trovarion awesome, do you also have guides on wet blending and stuff? On the patreon?
@@sylthaya7571 I don't have an explicit tutorial on wetblending right now (have one planned for next month), but i use it on my tutorials from time to time. I do have stuff however, yes. Lots of stuff ;)
Trovarion hey was just looking to pledge. Would I have access to the full vids and PDFs? What pledge would it take to obtain this. Thanks.
@@MrSmokincodz yes, you do have access to all back issue videos and PDFs back to the very first post :) The 10$ pledge gives you both the videos and the PDFs!
The freehand in the cloak is insane.
I always forget there are people into 40K who are actually skilled artists and aren't either like just Duncaning everything or ruining models.
Oh yeah, I’m not only going to highlight and enhance lighting, but I’m also going to free hand a fucking skull that looks as if it’s a template!!! You’re amazing man. Truly amazing
When you made chapter symbol with freehand, that was amazing performance of skill. Good work man.
That was bloody astonishing. That's the level of skill everyone wishes they could paint at, but so few put in the effort to achieve that level of skill.
@@PumpkinHoard he has made full size lions before
Finally, an artist instead of a hobbyist demonstrating advanced blending techniques for miniatures!
By far the best minature painter Ive seen.
much obliged!
Absolutely agree, a true master

thank you! I shall be awaiting your arrival on the patreon discord ^_^
I´m never feel tired to watch this again....this piece encourage me to paint my black temlpar army. Thank you.
Thank you so much Trov. Best advice was " dont get discouraged ". Super helpful video. Cant wait to show you progress.
This paint job was insane before you started freehanding the cape and shoulders. Simply blown away.
You know.....I wasn't a big fan of the way you paint black armor, but your free hand is amazing!!!! 🤯
Hand painting those shoulders was amazing I have never seen anyone do it such detail.
"simple freehand on the pad" madness, I had to subscribe right there.
I'm 4 years almost to the day late but this video is great. The free hand cloak design is really inspirational
THIS is how I'm gonna do my Templars. Incredible job. I'll be watching and re watching this video for sure!
Outstanding piece of art. The freehands are so crisp and clear... you made it eavier than metal. Thanks for sharing
thanks for that :)
Yo, when the BuyPainted royalty free theme kicked in, it really got me in that chilled mood that hooks me on these kinds of tutorials 🤤

Needed this to help with ideas on my black n gold Tau army
nice!
That freehand, and the whole miniature are just perfect! Dont know the words to tell how i m impressed)
Amazing, if I hadn't seen it myself I would never have believed that the cross on the shoulder was painted freehand.
An amazing tutorial! The shoulder pad freehand is crazy 😦
Great video, but you need to show off the final product once you've finished painting it! Let us admire your work!
Really awesome, including the fact that most hobbists paint black armour only using edge highlighting, so excited to see far more advanced performance
That... is obscenely good!
thanks!
Really appreciate all your work. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
That was amazing. Especially the sword and skull on the shoulder.

Probably the best take I've seen on black. Only thing is the jump in steps @24 minutes of the torso, otherwise sold me on the idea. Awesome.

Wow man, that looks great. I especially liked the metal effects on the sword.
Thank you for this! I just got back into the hobby a year ago, and this has given me many ideas about where to take my miniatures!
You have become a man-god at making videos. GJ
haha, dirty
The base part was great, thank you!
This has to be one of my favourite models and you have done an incredible job on it
thanks!
Incredible work and skill and patience! ♥

Love the black on this one.
Using the same music that buypainted uses is great. Great video!

OMG this is a masterclass! thank you
More black! I would like to see more concept tutorials regarding black as it is quite hard to get good at.
That was some next level artwork on the cape and shoulder pad. Thank you for sharing man, your work is brilliant!!
thanks for your kind words!
One day I'll be this good. So good!!!
I really like watching these videos, they're so satisfying and informative. Big thanks! 😀👍
Gorgeous black armor, no way I will pull it off on my models but still great to see.
Beautiful work
thank you!
Very nice free hand on the shoulder pad.
Very schön, absolut geil, one day werde ich auch so gut wie du ! Danke !
Great toot! I'll try this with my dark purple
nice!
Your skills are amazing!
thank you!
Your blight lord is one of the three top golden demon models man! i just saw it on the website
yeah, thanks ^_^
Das Ende ist toll
4:50 "You will have to put in some work"
You lost me there chief, nice knowing you...
Damn, you got skills. I'll need to train a lot until I can paint my miniatures like that.
thanks! just keep at it and keep having fun :)
Great model. Don't be afraid to give it some pedestal time at the end.
Came across this in 2020. Thank you for the video
This is beyond insane man ! Incredible work !
thanks!
you got some real skills. looks amazing. thx for sharing
Wow! Awesome work!
i dont think i will ever be able to paint to such a high skill level :(
i only wish you listed the paints you used, ps thank you for the video
leman Russ he used scalecolors but I think you can use any black, white, red, yellow, blue, brown...from any range you want or have.
I completely agree :)
The outside of the cape looks close to vallejo's hull red, which is a favorite of mine as far as darker reds go.
I didn't use a single Vallejo Color for the red (from memory I used scalecolors Deep Red as a Base and then Aldebaran Red and a Skintone for highlights), but that just shows that you can use any color you would like to use, Hull Red would work perfectly fine as a base here. I try to tell and teach people not to get too stuck in recipies.
A Painting GOD.
Cool vid! I would suggest instead of cutting the music completely when you talk to just fade it a little bit. As it is now it's a little bit distracting when it cuts out. Good luck!
Also, please stop using that horrible elevator music that so many paintingvids use
Just love his work, think he is my favorite
Who?
I would love to see one of the old Black Templars Sword Brethren models painted this way, the GW studio ones were not very good.
This is freaking amazing work, but I wish you took a moment to show off the completed mini at the end.
did that in my newest episode of the series. you live and learn :)
Your hand is INSANELY steady. Your eyesight must be great too
it's not :) while I have a steady hand I actually have magnifying glasses for these small details and you can see them pop in from the lower right corner from time to time in my videos. I recommend getting some, they make painting so much more relaxing and fun!

Sick tutorial
thank you for the video
I'm gonna join your patreon just because you called them smurfs
Me too. I hate the smurfs. Everything is about Monarchia!
love the free hand awesome
I'm only going to spend less than 20 hours on this so here is 2 amazing freehands.
Very talented, you have a great gift! Well done
thanks!
Damn, Christian Bale seems to be a multi talented person. Joke aside that was really impressive, great work sir.
Do all white people look the same to you?
So good!
People make some amazing things...
Awesome vid man haven’t managed to catch you on twitch for ages
had to dial back twitch because of life. :( Will focus on Patreon and YT for a while, because I am more flexible there with working-times!
This is incredible! I want so badly to try it but would love to see how you do it on something larger like a Pimaris Dreadnaught. There are a lot of large flat sections that have me nervous...
I would probably do it different on large surfaces...
Okay You Win!
Et moi qui pênsait que je savais peindre ... il y a plus d'écart de niveau entre lui et moi qu'entre moi et un enfant de 3 ans ..... Merveilleux !
Great. Please make a Dark Angel Tutorial
Would be great to see you do a eavy metal on grey knights
That shoulder freehand...
Wow, amazing work of art!
thanks!
Thanks for info. I notice that no one has suggested or talked about golden, Liquitex heavy body paint and why?
I came to this video looking for tips on how to masterclass my Space Marine Captain. I got a Crystal Brush entry instead.
Thanks
This guy deserves more exposure! Sub! Like! Comment!
amazing! love it!
