yes! Thank you ! You summed it up perfectly. For me, painting like this allows me to focus on the bigger picture and not so much on the details (that are a bit boring for me)
Hey man awesome video. Embrace the grimdark style… I’m over here slowly but surely painting mine. Looking forward for some more awesome vids. Keep up the awesome work.
Hey dude, Fantastic paint job, It would be great if you listed the paints you're using. such as the greens you used when building up the colours. If I wanted to recreate your paint job which I do want to. It would be great to know which paints you used :)
Mendezz! Thank you and welcome. Have fun with this technique, it changed my way of seeing miniature painting. You're right, I'll add the paints used in the description, as I started doing it in my recent uploads, but forgot to update the older ones. If you're having trouble or have any questions with your necrons, hop on the discord and I'll be glad to answer or admire your work in progress :p. (If you haven't found it yet, I have a video where I go in details about this paint scheme: How To Paint Necron Living Metal : Quick Guide)
Hey man. Quick question. Most of your models were done in a similar scheme. But what would you do for let's say a vehicles like a doomscythe my army is all similar but cobalt blue. I'm concerned that for larger vehicles this theme will clash with vehicles. If you were to paint a doomscythe for your own army what theme/color would you lean to?
Hey! Yes you are right, for my scheme, green on green or blue on blue works for smaller models. If I were to paint a doomscythe (I will eventually :D), I'd consider it as a 3 parts model. A big croissant, with 2 arcs and the center with the cockpit. I'd keep the arcs very dark, trying to sell an obsidian rock effect, and the center using my tainted metal method, with glow effects on the vents and panel lines. I hope you can picture what I'm saying :D. That way, you don't get a big blue croissant on the table.
@hubespaintshop thanks yes makes sense. My fear is the whole army looking too blue or too green. I've loved batch painting the minis but now I have some larger ones to try. And my skills are for sure not as good as yours. I have two classic style monotliths I also picked up as a lot. But just as mind blocked on the scheme for those. I have them black primed and was just going to dry brush some steel and darker greens to get the blackstone effect. What do you think I should do on those two?
@@thejaptoolguyYT sorry for the late response. I think you can’t go wrong if you follow a general rule in graphic design: 3 colors. In your case it would be 3 elements for the monoliths. Dark stone, tainted metal and the color you use for tour cristals or glow effects. That way you will never oversaturate the model with too much details or too few.
@@thejaptoolguyYT do you have discord? Add me: tontonsat. With pictures it will be easier to plan :) I’ll share my server during next video by the way.
Thanks for the video - you're very talented. Bit of criticism, since your channel has few subs: 1: turn the music volume down 20-30% when you talk 2: drop all the memes - people come to see you paint, not crack jokes, e.g. the only relevance is a word ("chrome" -> Mad Max clip). Jokes should come naturally - not pushed in the viewer's face. It furthermore ruins the tone of voice of your video - the reveal for instance is awesome; great music and presentation. The memes are horribly juxtaposed compared to high quality you are able of. Edit: the Pornhub joke in your Hexmark video is great! Genuinely funny. Best of luck!
Your criticism is more than welcome, and it reflects a lot of what I've been working on and what I want to improve. Audio : lot's of tests, then new mic, then tests again, and today I'm finally posting a vid with good audio balancing imo. Dumb skits & memes : you're right, I cringe a lot when looking at my older vids. Less is more, and I have to blend them better with the rest of the content and stop forcing them. This is what I'm focusing on today, to keep the humor but improve a lot lot lot on the quality. Thanks a lot for taking the time, close friends and stats are not enough when you want to improve :) You rock. Cheers !
@@hubespaintshop Less IS more - especially with your talent. One of my favorite RUclipsrs "The Feral Painter" had meme skits in his early videos. Now he's doing Grimdark Compendium - there are no memes anymore. Hope to see you rise above!
@@GrapeHate I watch him too, didn’t know that! I’ve dialed down a lot on skits especially in my 2 last vids. I think I’m starting to find my balance. Thanks again for your precious comments.
Sorry for this abomination of a thumbnail ;) Have a great weekend guys !
Excellente vidéo mec. Vive les Necrons.
Merci Math ! semaine pro je teste le nouveau détachement avec szarekh :p yes, vivent les necrons!
Love the process behind this method! Great video as usual 🫡
Thank you very much my friend
Great method for a compromise between detail and simplicity for some read to roll figurines. Good showcase of the painting process

Thank you very much ! Painting the same model ? Take your time, for me it’s about enjoying the process :) cheers
Nice process
Hey thanks ! It's quite easy and I love it :)
I dont have any interest in warhammer painting but i just wanna say that thumbnail goes hard, loved it
Hahaha thank you very much ! :p

SYLVAIN DURIFFFFF !!!! ❤
Indispensable :)
Might want to shorten the run time slightly for future videos - regardless, I enjoyed it, even though I’m not a necron collector.
Hey ! You’re absolutly right, I’m trying to find the right balance but I’ll focus more on timing in the next one, don’t want people to fall asleep !
