@Miniac you can pull the tip of the Tamiya cements brush to adjust it. This way ya don't need to move the bottle to get that teenie pit of cement. I suggest using pliers. Ya dun wanna adjust it with bare fingers
If I have asked you before, I'm sure you can find it in your heart to forgive me: Have you tried Dr. Ph. Martin's Inks and maybe made a video about these inks? Very durable, and thus not expensive imo. Might not work well for minis-but I haven't tried.
@@Valsorayu he was insulting the original commenter by calling him a nazi 🤦... its a "polite" troll because even tho he is insulting strangers hes using insults that no one likes like a nazi or pedo
I grew up painting miniatures with the only example of them being the images on the boxes by 'eavy metal. So I thought this was the only proper way that the models should look. Now I have ended up with an army that half of it is product of trial and error and the rest is fully edge highlighted madness. I have reached a point that I get PTSD when the time comes to edge highlight something and get OCD if I don't do it.
Came to the comment section to post pretty much exactly this. I had a long pause and when I came back there is now RUclips full of tutorials and washes everywhere. To put my OCD into perspective I got to the point where I could “speed paint” marine squads with blended power armor and full edge highlights. With the details on the modern marines it seems a little silly (especially for chaos with metal trim), but the 3rd edition kits really stand out when edged.
>watch the scene with the Psycho strings at 22:03 >Holy buckets! That model looked terrible. >realise that your best paintjobs look much worse than this Why even live
It's a great hobby to get into, and I've enjoyed my many years of painting and terrain creation. If you don't like the sci-fi aspect, Age of Sigmar also exists which is really cool as well. Some of the miniatures are shared between Games Workshop's game systems, like the khorne daemons that work for both 40k and Age of Sigmar.
"They can't not edge highlight." Rarely have truer words inspired such genuine laughter because GW love themselves some edge highlighting, so much so that some of the paint jobs you see seem to have ignored more traditional highlights and gone straight to the edge highlight. Also, its okay to hate Steven; he's a Chaos Space Marine so he's used to, and he probably hates you as well. Also also, Chaos Sparkle Marines need to be a thing; you were a lot more... let's say restrained in your word usage because my first thought was that they'd become vampires from Twilight.
I think the thing with 'eavy Metal is, despite being master painters, they have to create a style that can be emulated by anyone, regardless of skill. So, rather than creating true color/tonal variation by blending different shades across a surface, they create an eye-tricking faux variation through strong edge highlights and liberal black-lining. The irony here is that, while anyone can emulate the style, the style itself is stagnating, as you can't create true variation just following this method and, hilariously, the effects that 'eavy Metal create are not possible solely with the Citadel paint range. The precision of their edge highlights can only be achieved through the use of additives such as flow aid (arguably adding shades to their paints, but doesn't work for all their paint jobs) and actual inks, which Citadel does not produce.
@@AlarienEvenstar I'm not denying there's a certain logic and validity to your reasoning (because it makes total sense) but here's where I come up against the proverbial wall; in a good many GW painting tutorials, both written word and video, they reference and even demonstrate the more "tradtional" (for lack of a better word) technique of highlighting using layers and sell a line of paint specifically for the purpose of layering. Then they turn around and hamstring themselves by relying ridiculously on edge highlighting. The real rub, at least for me, is that edge highlighting can produce a decent look and really help to cleanly pop details, keeping the crisp and distinct, when used with layering; without using layering though, the result looks kind of like what you'd expect from a child's coloring book where they've traced a darker line of color along the inside perimeter of the image then colored the rest in a much lighter tone.
AlarienEvenstar what also needs to be considered is that GW isn’t just about painting, it’s also about gaming and building/fielding armies. If I’m building a new army that I need to start playing my aim when painting is a decent job but in a reasonably quick time. I’m not spending a week painting a model when I have another 50 models to paint. GW style of painting is often a quick but effective job, not every model is meant to win Golden Demon.
The comic relief is the best, or second best, part of the videos. I can't decide which is better about his videos, the comic relief or the painting advice.
Love the videos, man. Keep these ‘Eavy Metal tutorials coming! I bought a box of 40K miniatures two weeks ago and just painted my first Space Marine because of your videos. Always knew about Warhammer 40K but never really took an interest into painting minis until I stumbled on your ‘Eavy Metal videos somehow. Your beginner tutorials helped a bunch!
Your painting videos have such a unique touch to it that u manage to add in humor which gives a lot of personality to your videos, which not many people can do. Great work man don't let any1 else tell you other wise. Emperor protects!
Awww yiss, making and using Sprue Goo (@3:18) is such a fabulous way to seal gaps and joints, nice to see it spreading into the miniatures world. Ideal for beginners, softens the learning curve, is better to sand and scribe than filler and is a dogsend for lazy builders (like me, lol) ^_^
I'm definitely 2 years too late but they said the team based the trim with a 50/50 mix of liberator gold and dryad bark to aid coverage. They then shaded it with agrax and shaded round the rivets with wildwood or 50/50 skaven blight and black. They then cleaned it up with liberator gold, highlighted with 50/50 lib and stormhost then did extreme highlight of stormhost
FYI, the satin sheet that's visible on darker colors in official GW photos may be due to a very light coat of satin (not flat, not gloss) varnish after the model is painted. A while back I switched to satin varnishes rather than flat varnishes. I noticed immediately that the overall sheen of my models that used citadel paints began to look more like GW photographs. I suspect one reason they use a satin varnish even though 'eavy metal models are made for display and product photography is to tie together the surface refractivity of different colors of paint so that everything matches the same sheen.
If you really look at 'eavy metal mini's you can see they use different clears on different sections. You can sort of control the light on the model if you spray with satin, then go over shadow area's with a matte varnish, and then do edges in a gloss. It sort of exaggerates the normal light of the room making the edges seem to pop more.
space wolves! I also would like to do this but I'm still a pretty big noob. but that could be awesome too, I could do it now and again after more improvements then compare!
Hey, Miniac! I love this series, so thanks for bringing it to us. Now what I would be really excited to see, is you painting some other standard/generic miniature to the best of your ability, like say a Guardsman, Termagaunt or something similiar. Would be cool to see you take your time and skill towards such a "regular" model.
I'm impressed that you did the gold trim *AFTER* the highlights on the black. So much room for making fatal mistakes there and messing up the existing highlights. Really love this video and the humor man. Subbed!
I saw a great trick one time when putting something like gold or white over black, if you put a layer of another slightly lighter color over the black first, then put your final coat on, it goes on way easier. Like if you use a light brown before you put the gold on, then it doesn't take as many layers
Quick tip on bright, flashy golds! Is Zamesi Desert, or a similar sand "brown". The transparent golds look great over it. It's like adding gold glitter to a golden brown surface.
Awesome paint job man! Talon is also what inspired me to paint up some Black Legion!! Totally agree on A.D.B's wrinting!! & lets not forget to mention keeeEEEbles amazing narration!!
I just came here to say, last night I had a dream that you had another contest and I entered one of my first minis I ever painted. You hated it... I haven't forgave you yet. P.S I like your Silent Planet merch.
Awesome series, and in particular loving the close up detail on how you do heads, skin tones and faces. Skin tone is something I always struggle with. Thanks for the tips.
I think we need more Chaos Marines with packs of smokes rolled up in their sleeves. Great job! I'm sure my employer will love the pasta in their keyboard I spit out from laughing lol.
So for anyone wanting that cool gold without the pain of liberator gold over black use scale color Negro gold (black gold) SC-71 then wash then layer the highlights with scale color elven gold SC-75 the add silver of choice it has better coverage and looks closer to the box art
Hearing your description of how the marines were portrayed in that book reminds me of the quote "A good monster is a monster you can imagine in repose" from Guillermo del Toro
Dude that is so good, you are a really good painter but it is unbelievable how good the Eavy Metal figures are. Keep it up, your videos are really nice :D
Best fucking ad-rep ever......... you intermingled your love of 40k lore with an ad for an amazing 40k writer seamlessly. Not to mention that you're an amazing painter and nuanced and intelligent and funny youtuber. GW should actually be beating your door down son. Bravo.
Thanks for the tutorial Scott and that is a great looking model! Cool to see you using sprue goo. Another advantage of it compared to LGS is less shrinkage.
I think yours reflects more the color of a marine that has been out in the field for an amount of time. the one on the right, a marine who has maybe been fighting a couple days, His gear is cleaner, he has a helmet on, and such
You should paint other minis like some Orks or Nids or Eldar and go crazy showing unique ways we could use unique color schemes and get creative. That way the marines are by the book and the xenos are crazy unique! Regardless I love all these painting videos! Keep up the amazing work!
hey, around 10:40 when you talk about leaving metallic paint residue in your water causing every other paint to sparkle: might that be a neat effect for the armies of Slanesh? Maybe a follower of Khorne with some fresh, sparkly blood on their axe?
@@Miniac Sorry let me rephrase. Your painting skilll is very high. I just came back to the hobby and I wanted to get good at painting (I was ok(ish) before but never good). The problem is that there are many videos out there but not many "good ones". Bouth in terms of video quality but also in the way of the actuall paintjob or they just do a "battle rdy" paintjob. I dont want to do battle rdy but go the whole way. Thats what I ment with "how to paint properly". Anyway I am painting Blackstone Fortress aswell as some Deathguard Marines at the moment and I am very much liking your content. Right now I am trying (and failing) to recreate your evy metal DG. Btw how would you paint them if you didnt do it the evy metal way? Sorry for the long post and potato English.
You can tell that 'Eavy Metal varnished their Steven also, most likely a Satin varnish. It tends to subdue the edge highlights, making them less gaudy. I tend to highlight up very high on my models because the Testors Dullcote brings them down a notch. I'd love to see a video where you varnish Steven and then compare it to the Eavy Metal CSM.
nice painting and entertaining video! what's the name of the song you used in the background throughout the video (like at 12:30 for instance)? dope jam
You videos are awesome. The production, side-by-side views, cut aways, etc., are executed very well. I wish you'd occasionally cut away to a clock to show your total time invested in painting the miniature so far. And great results of course make the video!
This is brilliant hard work well done. Taking your tip on using different colours to highlight black as the biggest lesson to be learned. Gonna try purple for my black legion noise marines. Makes sense. Love the series even if it must feel like a slog sometimes for you. Really amazing
I lol'd so hard at the edge highlight jokes, and then cried, and then I lol'd again and then I went back to edge highlighting my Night Lords and continued to cry
Just want to say, the way you did the advert in this is best way to do ads, with something interesting going on in the background and a timer at the bottom. Thanks.
Was that a reference to Darren Latham around 4:50? I play 40k with his brother at my local gaming club. Both are incredible painters, and I know Darren used to work with 'Eavy Metal and is a multiple-time Golden Daemon winner.

As someone who has started painting black legion, i can attest to the pain and suffering of edge highlighting.
I feel personally attacked!
So I'm sitting here painting a mini, watching some tips, and my black cat is in the same spot. Inspecting.
22:05 tbh I'd be happy with that result if I was going for a traditional GW style.
i did that freehand next to the trim before Heavy metal, over 10 years ago. I did 50 noise marines. The pain was my pleasure.
'Eavy Metal - the ultimate endurance challenge.
Well done amigo
