this is one of the best empire tutorials around! all steps are doable and the endresult looks incredible!!! would love to see you cover more of the empire line
Im starting my journey from traditional black undercoat painting into contrast/speed paints so your tutorial is super useful in getting it beyond the basic speed paint stage and into the really nice tabletop stage. Thanks for uploading!
I'm blown away at the quality of these sculpts. A whole army for $150 is pretty stinking good. It looks like they're releasing them as GW does. I'm curious to see how they handle the other factions
I follow a lot of painters, but I find you hit the perfect balance of quality and speed, using all sorts of available tools to make amazing tabletop minis. You also make me want to go back to collecting empire even with a pile of guard to paint.
Man I've been painting a highlands miniatures empire army and I loved the sculpts! Altho I downscaled them to 90% to fit in size with old gw sculpts. Made those eyes even more challenging!
Unrelated, sorry, but any plans for a Stormcast video with the new color scheme? I know you have most of the paints listed on your IG but would be great to see the process on here!
Classic Talabheim colour scheme. Great job. Stippling on the metal over speed paint metalic looks senstional. Quick question: why not just finish with satin varnish straight up?
🫡 #BrigadierGeneralFestus another fab video! Also, Highland Miniatures are top notch. My favourite are their Dwarves range, which is as close to perfect as I've ever seen 🤩
This is Siraya tech abs like mixed 4:1 with tenacious obsidian. I’ll likely be moving away from this mix as Phrozen is launching a new gaming resin… and it’s AMAZING. Can see my quick thoughts on the short I posted
Thank you very much!! The varnish you used is by Vantage Modelling Solutions? Never heard of it at least here in Europe. I really struggle to find a premixed varnish that just hits the sweet spot between satin and matte. The satins tend tube very glossy I think.
I like the grey primer mainly cause I can do any color from it. Also stynyl rez grey for some reason comes out ultra smooth, also making it great if speed paints.
Nice job! I’m also painting an empire army, or about to anyway. I’m genuinely pretty impressed with the result. Do you know about how long the miniature took? I’d likely batch paint in sets of 10 but I’m hoping each model will average about 1 hour
Hi, awesome tutorial and very nice fast painting (from my point of view) :). Are you mixing the paints with water or use fresh from the bottle? Or maybe you use a wet palette?

Awesome tutorial. Thanks a lot
Cheers!
Terrific tutorial. Really accessible method for fantastic results. I really liked the way you used the airbrush for weathering.
Cheers!
For the Empire! It's always a pleasure to see Empire minis painted so well. Empire, as I may say, have a best ways to show how FB can be beautiful
Cheers!
honestly man this was a fantastic tutorial! Great sound quality, excellent framing!

Cheers for the kind words!
Awesome job, man! You kept it simple and nailed it.
Cheers! That’s the cornerstone of my technique, simple, but effective!
Awesome work. I like you're style.
Simple and (seems) easy !
Cheers!
Such an amazing tutorial! I'll be using lots of stuff from this.
Cheers! :)
This is amazing work. I have learned a lot and hope to continue to learn from your future content.

I knew I was coming to check out your channel because now I have over 30 highland swordsmen and men-at-arms lmao
Godspeed!!!
Awesome work my son!

🫡 I went with 100% since I’m starting from scratch :)
Really exceptional work for using primarily speed paints. Definitely highlights how great they are as a product
Cheers!
Im stealing this white recipe for my reiklanders - could be really grimdark!
Cheers!
Good stuff as always, E.

Looks very crisp! I'd love to see your tke on an Averland scheme!

Oh didn’t realize the video was supposed to have a voiceover, time to rewatch! 👍
Haha yup! For some reason it did not export the voice over the first time, fixed this time! :)
Unrelated, sorry, but any plans for a Stormcast video with the new color scheme? I know you have most of the paints listed on your IG but would be great to see the process on here!
Coming soon :) I’m working the kinks out of a new video rig. Very close to ready

The gloss applied a hard durable coat to protect the paint during gaming.
very nice
Thanks :)
"I dont remember my empire models looking this good..."
'i printed this :)'
"oh"
Haha yup, highland miniatures sunland line :)
Lovely scheme - but holy fuck, how easy you made it look to paint eyes - great job

They are quite awesome as well! Thank you, sir! 🫡🫡🫡🫡
That base asked for orange or green dry brush in my opinion.
Fair!
very nice tutorial as always! 😊
Would you mind telling the resin used and the mixing ratio in case it’s a mix? :)

@@nomusenopaint yup that’s the one. They’re Polish so should be able to get it quite easily. It’s the best varnish I’ve ever used hands down.
can you do a painting series for the old world Orcs? haven't really seen any
Will put it in the queue :)
👍👍

Love it. Did you scale down the highlands minis at all or just at 100%? His stuff tends to be 32mm
Did 100% since I’m starting the force from scratch
Really great video !
Would you recommend gray primer over white ?
I like the grey primer mainly cause I can do any color from it. Also stynyl rez grey for some reason comes out ultra smooth, also making it great if speed paints.
I hear stynyl rez is dense. What nozzle are you using when you paint it with aero ? Or maybe you dilute it ? @@col.festus
Wow - incredible work. Are these the OG speedpaints, or the 2.0 version?
Cheers! These are all the new 2.0 speed paints.
Perfect - thanks!
Cheers!
Nice job! I’m also painting an empire army, or about to anyway. I’m genuinely pretty impressed with the result. Do you know about how long the miniature took? I’d likely batch paint in sets of 10 but I’m hoping each model will average about 1 hour
It took about 50 minutes I believe
@@col.festus not bad thanks!
Hi, awesome tutorial and very nice fast painting (from my point of view) :). Are you mixing the paints with water or use fresh from the bottle? Or maybe you use a wet palette?
all my paints are prepped on the wet pallet except for the speed paints. Those I use from the new army painter wet pallet wells made for speed paint.
@@col.festus Thanks for a answear :). What have you mean "prepperad", mixing with water or only apply at a wet palet?
@@MrZantal just placed on a wet pallete
@@col.festus thanks :)
Is this 28mm?
It’s more like 32mm
