This is really helpful, I have a total of 20 legionaries and 12 of them are still not painted. I was all over the place with the first 8, which still works since the EC marines love to style their armour however, but I still felt dissatisfied with some of my marines and felt it was taking way to long to just paint one. This video should help with getting some speed on the process.
Fantastic video and great job! This is a pretty effective method and one I might have to try out for my self since I plan to start a proper army soon. One thing I have noticed myself is that Magos Purple contrast seems to work much better then Druchii Violet when it comes to covering the entirety of the pink parts.
Thank you so much for this! I was trying to go my own way with a scheme for my first army and I'm finding myself in a mess of purples and pinks trying to get anything to look good until realizing what I need is simplicity. And black, just allow some armor panels to stay black.
Great tutorial, much faster than my method for similar results. I think I would add a single pink layer on the upper portions of where you put the druchii violet but this gets you 99% of the way done.
I've done half a Salamanders test model and it came out pretty decent. I've got an idea to make it quicker, but that's going to involve buying a spray can just for that one paint scheme so I'll have to wait until I've got some spare money.
@@criticalhitwargaming5290 Thank you, I currently only have a White scar Primer and a bottle of Abaddon Black at the moment. Would the dry brush method also work with the white primer? Or would it be better with a base coat of Abaddon black. As opposed to CSM, im referencing your video to help color my Kriegs with a EC color theme. I find that the tone of pink you produce is the kind of vibrance that i've been trying to look for.
I use Army Painter brushes, nothing special. Wargamer: Regiment, Wargamer: Character and Wargamer: Monster are my standard brushes, with a drybrush added in too. Buy yourself some brush soap off Amazon, and make sure you clean your brush in between painting sessions, and make sure your water is relatively clean.
Are these models sold as emperors children or do you just get a chaos marine and paint him this way? I really want to paint some emperors children but I can't seem to find any being sold online.
You need to buy regular Chaos Space Marine units and paint them in this scheme. There are a few Emperor's Children specific units, such as Noise Marines and Lucious the Eternal.
It's only that bright because I've got some pretty intense LED ring lights shining at it. You can make anything glow that way! For real it's a fairly matt.
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thank you
No problem!
This may be exactly what I need to get over my trim fatigue

I am stoked to see the pink flow
Thanks for this mate, I'm a first time painter and this will be a great foundation for my CSM
literally just subscribed and turned on notifications with your black templar painting tutorial, great videos keep up the great work.
Thanks buddy! Let me know if there's anything in particular you'd like to see.
@@criticalhitwargaming5290 when you can speed painting the different wings of the dark angels is one I would like to see.
@@regulus_2284 I'll see what I can do!

Awesome! I'll give that a try if I ever paint some more. Useful tools, contrast paints!

Awesome stuff! 😄
Fantastic work 👏 love your vids #no1fan
clean !
Great guides, thank you so much! Any plans for Salamanders?

@@criticalhitwargaming5290 let me supply you with the spray can :) Any Paypal for donations?
@@os7272 www.paypal.me/dukesy324 is the one! Thank you very much, I'll credit you in the subsequent video.
@@criticalhitwargaming5290 so how much is the can?
@@os7272 £10/$14 from my FLGS!
Could this pink be achieved with White scar prime + Emp's Children Base + Fulgrim pink layer (including Druchii Violet)?
It could, yes, but it would take a lot longer. The time is saved not painting the black armour trim.

what kind of brushes do you use? They seem super rigid and fine. I am having a rough time trying to paint all my models, so anything would help.

@@criticalhitwargaming5290 thank you :)
if they would just release fulgrim and some new noise marines, i'd start an EC army right on the spot
They're a tasty army, I wish they'd hurry up with a new Heretic primarch too!
that basecoat is on the shiny side of satin.... not anywhere close to matte. Nice paint job nonetheless.
