I like this black quite a lot. Its got great volumetrics and doesnt feel quite as busy with all the secondary reflections as some of the more chrome nmms look. To be this reads like glossy black paint at scale, rather than a mirror or polished chrome effect. Very nice I also really appreciate that you made a paint plan with 5 paints, but it clearly works with any 3 paints and 50/50 mixes as well, so it could be used for really interesting color shift styles or schemes like Dark Angeos that have a very specific black to green highlight. A great video
This is awesome and makes me feel much more confident in tackling NMM. One thing I would like to see (in another video perhaps?) is how you would then tackle the highlight placement from the back view once your primary viewing angle is finished. It’s probably really simple, but something I struggle with for sure!
I'm planning a video on that but it's very simple, I just reverse the light source. So the main source of light for the back would be directly opposite to the one for the front
I have always been put off doing this style. But I have always loved watching you make it look ridiculously easy 😂 But this one I have found super useful as I am doing the fantastic Horus Ascended model from Forgeworld and I wanted the Serpents Scales to really pop on this model. So I have just completed over the last 2 days the gatgantuan mission of completing his armor and man, does it pop! Cheers Juan for another fantastic video, expertly described 👌👏👏
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures it will be when finished! But so happy with this way of doing black armor, as it really is not as hard as I always thought it was. And is visually impressive.
These are just about the exact colors I've been using for my Black Templars, but I've been using a lot of drybrushing and layering. Might actually give NMM a shot with them after seeing this!
Hi Juan, what Vallejo colours would you recommend as close substitutes for these ones? I happen to have mostly Vallejo, so I would rather try to use them instead of buying new ones. I still probalby go for xpress paints, but I might try this technique too.
hi juan, its me from the masterclass in tallagh, im using this video as a guide to paint my stealth suits for NNM. clean sketch with a wide range of contrasts, stick to it and be precise with the brush work and colors
I can't say anything different from what others have said, but it is a great intro NMM technique. The step-by-step process is great. It's also very timely because I'm planning to paint a new army with black armor. I planned to do a black with blue/gray highlights, so I assume I would follow the same technique but substitute the grays with gray/blue paints.....?
Brutal el nmm negro 🔥🔥🔥 rakarth flesh es más clarito que el stormvermin, no? Cuando he hecho algo similar para un vial creo que usé marrón carbonizado y hueso así que parecido el color final, pero con más mezcla aunque al ser algo peque no influía mucho si es algo como una armadura se me complicaría la cosa si uso el mismo enfoque. Me mola el tuyo 😁
A really fascinating technique, an amazing paintjob and a really great how-to video aswell. Might be me: The black NMM reads more as a dark steel though.
Buenas! He visto tus videos en los que se requiere zero skill y me parecen geniales, el problema es que tengo -1000 skill y cuando he intentado hacer algo similar a lo que tu haces me ha salido un desastre 😂. En fin, seguiré intentandolo.
Very cool techniques! Often i find myself struggling with NMM now only in certain areas where it is not so easy or clear how it should look. Leg, very easy - light goes down the leg, on the knee, on the foot, looks great. Arm, very easy, shoulder very easy. OK now he has big, flat, slightly round chest plate. Hm. Or maybe he has a big intricate moulded eagle on his shoulder. Tiny little fearhers where i just have no room to blend.
The trick for small details is you don't have to blend. As long as the contrast is right, it doesn't matter. In fact, most of the times a rougher transition looks more realistic
I cant believe that I managed to do this on my own 😂 I used more blue colors on the black and it looks pretty good. Thank you for the video. Is there a video on the theory of this? Like hat are counter refelctions and where to put them?
Counter reflections as the name goes are counter to the main source of light. It's as simple as that But I will make a video going through all the theory
Buenas Juan, ¿qué colores de la nueva Game Color de Vallejo utilizarías para el mismo efecto? (Which colors of the new Vallejo Game Color range can be used?)
Ok im going to try nmm after watching this and a few other of your nmm tutorials. Im a newbie and only painted like 14minis but i want to push myself early and learn
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures just went out and got some Vallejo colours to try it, can't wait to build up the skills to get make my minitures look next level
Another great tutorial. It looks great! Got a quick question. Even though it a NMM, could you apply a similar method to getting good blend and transitions for regular colours? Also, my thousand sons and I greatly anticipate the upcoming no skill blue.
Awesome result 👌🏻👌🏻 1 Question, What chaos magic do you use for paint like you are using a pencil?😅 I mean, you are using a nº1 or 2 brush but the tip hold the form. 🤔
As usual just perfect, I'm so inspired after this video to try! Maybe you could extend this series to more colours, like Red, and (sorry for this) Blue, at least showing paints and result, or maybe one or two recipes for gold and steel Though many tutorials often said generic "warm grey" and so on, to not focus on exact paints, as a partially colourblind person who struggle with exact shades, I found knowing exact paints combinations one of the most valuable information to have for the best result, for example your plasma gun video with different color schemes but the same technique was so good. Also thanks for your necron blades video, it was the best tutorial explanation on RUclips on the topic, I'm so proud by my Void Dragon blade and tail
Looks nice but it ain't black anymore the whole armour looks more like a gun metal or titanium grey prefer your technique you did with the dry brush highlight looked a lot better
To make it look more like black, shrink the highlight areas. You can make it look less glossy by not painting as brightly with the color palate with highlights. That should get you the black effect you’re looking for without making it look like titanium.

That’s a really fantastic technique. Feels less intimidating than other NMMs.
That was the idea!
Your technique is excellent friend - I am pushing myself and getting some pro-level coaching this month! Bang on!
Awesome!
Absolutely sick look! Very well explained and amazing process.
You're tips and techniques have help me with my painting I'm new to WH40k but all these videos are great no matter your canvus!🎉
Thanks mate 😘
Painting nmm and painting black are both immense challenges to me, thank you for this video, it looks great!

I can see this working on Iron Warriors! Great work mate
Indeed, if you want a lighter tone, just make your initial highlight bigger and boom, steel
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures would love to see a video on doing brown armour In a Satin/semi NMM and not getting it to look like bronze/gold
@Jurvin64 extremely difficult as bronze is basically metallic brown. It's going to either look like bronze or copper
I have always been put off doing this style.
But I have always loved watching you make it look ridiculously easy 😂
But this one I have found super useful as I am doing the fantastic Horus Ascended model from Forgeworld and I wanted the Serpents Scales to really pop on this model. So I have just completed over the last 2 days the gatgantuan mission of completing his armor and man, does it pop!

Es fácil!
Thanks Juan I want to use this for my Templars.
DO IT
Great work as always!
Thanks
Your stuff is absolutely amazing
Also you would have the perfect voice for a sword instructor lol
Looks good!
Thanks
Great video, could have used it before my competition entry :D
Lol, sorry I guess
Did the competition stream happen already?
Would this approach work with doing other colors or is it a black only trick?
All the colours, this is how the top tier bist painters paint their busts.
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures Thanks for response! I'll try this on my blood angels
Thanks Juan

Exactly! Just use blue greys instead of warm greys. Something like Incubi Darkness, Thunderhawk Blue, Fenrisian Grey for example
Fenrisian Grey works really well, I work up from black -> Dark Reaper -> Fenrisian Grey@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures
Your NMM videos are simply amazing!!
Thanks
Beautiful work and excellent instruction, thank you!
Thanks
Incredible
Thanks
muy bueno Juan, un maestro. si quisieses darle un toque azulado? una veladura?
O una veladura con tinta o usar colores azulados desde el principio

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures thankius, miraré si tengo algo intermedio así desaturado 😘
A really fascinating technique, an amazing paintjob and a really great how-to video aswell. Might be me: The black NMM reads more as a dark steel though.
Black Metal looks like that, it's the nature of metal.
It's a difficult balance between it looking metallic and looking black.
Buenas! He visto tus videos en los que se requiere zero skill y me parecen geniales, el problema es que tengo -1000 skill y cuando he intentado hacer algo similar a lo que tu haces me ha salido un desastre 😂. En fin, seguiré intentandolo.
Magnifico tutorial juan!
Gracias guapo 😘
Espectacular la explicación Juan, con este método me voy a aventurar al NMM la cual creo que se puede aplicar a cualquier color. Un 10
Esto se puede aplicar a cualquier color. Lo aprendí de maestros como Marc Masclans, usan algo similar al pintar bustos y escalas grandes
Fantastic tutorial, I needed to see this one somehow. It looks so easy when you do it haha.
It IS easy
So cool! : )

Yes, this is just a particular application of a general technique. I learnt this from large scale and bust painters,
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures do you find this technique harder to pull off on miniatures?
@trekbrooker2692 a bit because the space is smaller but it's also much easier than glazing for example
I like this technique as much as I like the ambient music in the background - thx

Awesome result 👌🏻👌🏻
1 Question, What chaos magic do you use for paint like you are using a pencil?😅

It's actually a size 3 or 4 usually, just use a good quality brush and have a light touch
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures I see, Can you suggest me any brand?
Thx for the answer btw 😉
@Alvargon Raphael 8404, Windsor and Newton series 7, Rosemary and Co series 33
Those are the ones I use
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures Thx, I will look for them 👍🏻
As usual just perfect, I'm so inspired after this video to try!

The hard part for most people is the blending and brush control
Blending is easy with this technique, for brush control, that's something I can't help you with, you have to develop that yourself
Johnson Jason Clark Kimberly Lewis Mary
Looks nice but it ain't black anymore the whole armour looks more like a gun metal or titanium grey prefer your technique you did with the dry brush highlight looked a lot better
To make it look more like black, shrink the highlight areas. You can make it look less glossy by not painting as brightly with the color palate with highlights.
That should get you the black effect you’re looking for without making it look like titanium.
That is how black gleams in the light though
@@TheBeetleKingI think he is just jealous cause this looks sick and he can’t do it
I mean, yeah it isn’t matte black, but the point is to paint black metal
