This video (and not my plastic addiction) made me buy 2 boxes of knights and some bladeguard to try this method. Hoping i can pull it off 30% as well as you have here!!
best looking Death Wing ive seen by far! Usually the bone colour looks too cartoony and a bit sickly, these just look awesome, full of character. These are some gorgeous models my man!!
A Deathwing Knight ended up being GW's Free Miniature of the Month of April 2024! Looking for ways to paint the one I picked up led me to this video. :) I think the shade of green you picked might be my favorite, and the execution is just grand.
That model looks incredible! You said you’re watering down the paints 50:50 for the stippling but are you using a dry brush and removing most of the paint like when you dry brush or do you use a more moist/loaded brush? Also, have you ever experimented with oil washes?
I got the impression you went for full citadel + brush work here to make a more accessible video. Would it be fine to do an umber oil wash instead of the earth shade for the pinwash? Similarly, feels like could do a thinned down sepia ink through the airbrush for the area shading before the wraithbone/bonewhite highlight? Love these and agree that the saturated green used by GW and every DA tutorial out there is ehh.
Thanks for showing us one that's all brush and acrylics! Big help to those of us just starting out. Any recommendations for some darker shades of metallic paint? It's hard to keep things grimdark if your marine looks like he was hit by an orbital bombardment of glitter bombs.
I use a lot of exhaust manifold or gunmetal by vallejo mental coulor series. Or lead belcher. I always go over with rattling grime contrast too. Hope that helps thanks
@@TheFeralPainter Sure does. Thanks! I tried to cheap out a bit on metallics and well you get what you pay for. A wash or heavy glaze of dark paint didn't help much either. I'll check those out.
Sorry again mate, since im doing a list for my own personal stuff for the shoulder pads, ill tint the normal 3rd -7th company seargents with the codex compliant colors, im trying to come with a colour for normal Deathwing non command veterans, and this looks perfect. Leaving the Scale 75 bronze for those in command like Azrael, etc. What colours you mixed specifically for the Shoulders, it goes so well for normal Veterans. I Cant really tell if it was Decayed Metal - Scale 75 or Runlord Brass (the video says the metallics are with scale 75, but i see different some metallics, so i dont know specifically the shoulders what colour), and do you have a recommendation for an extremely similar tone but a bit more "redish" for metallic bronze like shoulders ? So Decayed metal with a little more red ? Update, just got some Pro Acryl Copper to test it out, So Copper for non command, Bronze for command Deathwings :)
thanks for the scheme! it looks amazing, but i do run into some minor problems. Whenever i try to apply the wraithbone highlight the color difference just stands out too much, i tried thinning it the paint more and apply even less but it just comes out too white on the Morghast bone. Do you maybe know what im doing wrong? Also if i wanted to use something like streaking grime on this scheme, what would be the perfect moment to apply it?
@@TheFeralPainter I will 😜 that dirty, worn finish looks awesome and such a simple method too... My scout kill team box is going to be the prettiest in the land 😘
That could be the case. My advice would be try one or some Of the following: 1. Thin ur paints and apply multiple layers of it. 2. Between colours, maybe mix them 50/50 for one of the layers between each. This was will help blend and smooth without a massive jump in colour. 3. Use glazes to blend also Maybe try a few practice pieces trying out each of these points or use multiple points to achieve desired results Hope that helps cheers.
thanks mate. Might have to get some of those Villainy Inks. Also for the Kraut Cover which is the best dark base in your opinion? I got the dark earth but looks a bit bland. Light earth is really nice though
Man these look so awesome. Just to confirm, for the knight master, you did the same stippling technique but with the colors from the termie video (Tamiya deck tan, etc), or just the lenses were different? Cheers!
Use either a 50/50 mix and build up between the laters. Or thin more with water and add more layers. Or alternatively can use glazes to blend. Thanks again 👌🏻👌🏻
What did you do for the shoulder pad and knee emblem thing of the sergeant? At time stamp 14:30 it has this beautiful grey stone hue and I'd be keen to give that a whirl. Thanks love your stuff!
Base. Lemme give you some advice thow. Don’t get too bogged down with specific brands and exact colours that myself or others use. One: people think it makes them a better painter using the same as what they use. Two: all paints are different and some work better for others depending on dilution with water etc. Three: finding similar colours or trying ones similar can help you create unique colours or even mix your own up. I always try encouraging people to go out and use there own colors they might already have. Example would be if im painting a red cape ill say “use a dark red for base and a light red for highlights” This way it encourages you the painter to seek your own that u like. There are 1000s ov different dark reds out there. So its up to you to be creative and experimental. My goal with painting is to make the user a better painter by teaching techniques, as using a certain colour don’t make it look better. Its all in the way u apply or use lighting that will make things look better. So try not to get bogged down with being in the colour police. As url learn more from either using your own paints u might have or finding similar. Hope that helps and in future take these tips in mind before spending unnecessary money on same colours as i use.
@@TheFeralPainter if you don't want to say that's fine but please don't say you won't say to do me a favor. Every one of us enjoy different aspects of it. I'm not much of a painter and really I like this game for the tabletop aspect the most. Not really interested in being the best of painters, just copy/paste a model I like and then PLAY. I know you want us to be better painters. But understand some of us are just not much into it, and never will... I enjoy doing copy/paste, doing a decent enough work of it, and then PLAY ;). And hopefully competitive. Hope you understand. And if you don't want questions asked, just show em a tiny bit 😆
@@TheFeralPaintero have available AK and Vallejo. And I see them a bit different. Which one did you use ? AK? If AI tho. What's that brand ? I didn't know it. Any good ?
@@TheFeralPainter Thanks so much! I'm working on painting this scheme right now, about halfway done and loving how it looks so far! Great tutorial, easily my favorite Deathwing paint scheme I've seen!
I'm not a fan of the clean DA/ Deathwing look either and you method absolutely fixes the aesthetic for me. Thank you for this!
Happy to help!
Absolutley! I started to paint mine in Black with greenish rims, like they did with the lion, but seeing this makes me rethink my paint sceme xD
Those shields deserve a video on their own. Excellent work as always. I'm tempted to start painting myself
You should!
This video (and not my plastic addiction) made me buy 2 boxes of knights and some bladeguard to try this method. Hoping i can pull it off 30% as well as you have here!!
Follow along take your time and urll get 100%
Immensely satisfying watching the base models get filled out by dabbing. Another great job!
Glad you enjoy it!
Absolutely love this technique, I have started doing it on my own knights, thank you for this clear and simple but very effective tutorial
That's boss. Love your paint schemes *way* more than the official GW stuff
Thanks means alot
best looking Death Wing ive seen by far!

Awww dude thanks so so much!! Really means alot! 👌🏻👌🏻
Member of the colour police saying thanks for a great video and letting us know how to get that gorgeous colour!
No problem 👍
Phenomenal paint job. I really like how these look. If i get them (which is on my list) i definitely will be coming back to this video. Thanks man.
Glad you like them!
Love the way you paint sir!
Thank you! Cheers!
This looks amazing and also great fun to paint. Was going to paint my terminators as Blood Angels but tempted to try this now
Enjoy either way mate

Yes and yes and yep i use dry brush
So this makes me want to do House Vyronii knights in this style and close to these colors.
Do it haha x
Great paint. I’m loving the grimdark scheme.
If you couldn’t get your hands on decayed metal, what paint would you use instead?
I got the impression you went for full citadel + brush work here to make a more accessible video.
Would it be fine to do an umber oil wash instead of the earth shade for the pinwash?
Similarly, feels like could do a thinned down sepia ink through the airbrush for the area shading before the wraithbone/bonewhite highlight?
Love these and agree that the saturated green used by GW and every DA tutorial out there is ehh.
Go for it! That would work, thanks for kind word
Looks awesome! You have an amazing eye for colors! Do you do a test paint before you make a video or do you go straight into painting?
Tbh straight into painting 😂🙈
Thanks for showing us one that's all brush and acrylics! Big help to those of us just starting out.

U can apply at end if u like and touch up any hilights.
If the paint is too strong try mix in a small ammount of previous colour 👌🏻👌🏻
Great video! One question though - why not use oils for washes, do you think that would work otherwise?
Yes oils would work too. I just prefer the enemals drying times
I'm gonna have to try this on my Raptors 🤘🏻
Enjoy
@@TheFeralPainter I will 😜 that dirty, worn finish looks awesome and such a simple method too... My scout kill team box is going to be the prettiest in the land 😘
This looks great, but I'm finding my attempts look rather splotchy. Perhaps I need more layers of the last few colors?
That could be the case.
My advice would be try one or some
Of the following:
1. Thin ur paints and apply multiple layers of it.
2. Between colours, maybe mix them 50/50 for one of the layers between each. This was will help blend and smooth without a massive jump in colour.

They have some cool stuff, i like there copious earth the most.
Beautiful brother, one question what varnish do you use? Which brand.
You’re videos are awesome.
Thanks man! And valejo. I use there ultra matt, satin and gloss range
@@TheFeralPainter cheers mate! Last question you spray it with a rattle can or brush?
I use airbrush, however rattle cans work fine also
Mate this is brilliant thanks! Do you think youll ever do a space wolf grimdark video?
That's the plan!
Amazing work and definitely some elements I’ll be using on my Deathwing. I’d love to see you paint some Space Wolves. Any idea when that’s coming up?
Soon my brother
Man these look so awesome. Just to confirm, for the knight master, you did the same stippling technique but with the colors from the termie video (Tamiya deck tan, etc), or just the lenses were different? Cheers!
Yes same stipple and coulors from this… just airbrush the highlights from last video. 👌🏻👌🏻
Great video do you think I can use the stipple method for other models and would love to see you paint the lion
Sure, why not
Looks amazing mate
Thanks so much!!
I love the look, great job!
Thanks
Love the paint scheme are these the new primaris type or old style size ?
New style
Hey I tried this scheme for my self and am loving the process so far. Any tips on how to get a smoother transition between the layers?
Use either a 50/50 mix and build up between the laters. Or thin more with water and add more layers.
Or alternatively can use glazes to blend.
Thanks again 👌🏻👌🏻
What did you do for the shoulder pad and knee emblem thing of the sergeant? At time stamp 14:30 it has this beautiful grey stone hue and I'd be keen to give that a whirl. Thanks love your stuff!
Unless my eyes are playing tricks on me 😂
Its just greys. Like a nmm effect
Is that primer the normal primer or matte ? i have the cytadel black primer, but that one looks matte
Yes this is a primer its slightly matt
Sorry, I have to use CC, what colour was the sponge chipping?
Rinox hide
@@TheFeralPainter thank you and great videos. Best scheme and method for these models
Quality 👌
Thanks
And is it Lupercal green base or air ? (showing the color briefly would be marvelous (the actual recipient))

@@TheFeralPainter yeah I feel you but I'm just starting. So it's copy/paste for me for now 😉
I get that but urll learn more doing what i say. And save money. So no asking from now on ill just say same thing 😉

Then use contrast or speed paints 👌🏻 tons easier and fast
Assuming I've followed the steps up to the point of washing, if i wanted to use an enamel wash in place of the acrylics, what would you recommend?
Villainy inks
“No airbrush-“
SUBSCRIBE!!!
Thanks
Mate could you possibly explain how to achieve that textured grim dark armor for vehicles?
Yes same thing, just use bigger brush
@@TheFeralPainter instructions unclear. Used a mop now my hobby room is grimdank 😂😂
🤣🤣
@@TheFeralPainterNate one more quick question. Which villany inks to use instead of seraphim sepia. Goons grime? Sector rust? Dystopian brown?
Hi, mate. whats the ice yellow brand ? i see it listed as green, but its obviously yellow ? is it the vallejo ice yellow ?
Al ice yellow
@@TheFeralPainterdid you mean AK ?
Any ice yellow will do
@@TheFeralPaintero have available AK and Vallejo. And I see them a bit different. Which one did you use ? AK? If AI tho. What's that brand ? I didn't know it. Any good ?
Ak interactive is the brand. However any brand of ice yellow will do the same job. There all very similar if not the same.
Grimdark Grey Knights pls
Is there a citidel or thin coats alternative to decayed metal? All the places I'm checking in my area don't have it in stock.
Mmmm im not sure closet ive found is citadel castellax bronze
Thanks. I'll check that out and keep my eyes open for it. @TheFeralPainter
A quick question do mineral spirts effect decals?
Not if properly dry and being carful not to rub hard
@@TheFeralPainter legend thank you.
What color did you use for the sponge chipping?
Rinox hide
@@TheFeralPainter Thanks so much! I'm working on painting this scheme right now, about halfway done and loving how it looks so far! Great tutorial, easily my favorite Deathwing paint scheme I've seen!
Decayed metal is sold out everywhere and I'm in the US :(
Awww shit sorry to hear man. Hopefully urll get some soon x
Cool
Cheers
would this color scheme work with an airbrush?
Yes please go on my channel i have a video for a better version with airbrush
What size brushes do you use?
All types tbh. I dont really have a preference
What printer you used?
Anycubic mono
@@TheFeralPainter Ty, I want buy first printer but I don’t understand which better , ellego, anycubic and other( your works show me the quality
Is that worldbreaker?
No thats for horus
