Yo guys when I click the link it leads to 404 not found because it is taking the emoji as part of the link lol Already picked up the wet pallet and acrylics set but wanted to let you know for other guys who might want a new airbrush
This channel is among the best on RUclips, miniature hobbyists or not. Thank you for the years of content and the inspiration to push ourselves further as artists.
honestly when i painted this model i felt it was kind of plain. for your brain to see this much potential is insane. amazing result. and if you didn't know commended entry means your top 6. not bad at all.
I am brand new to painting, I have never painted in my life, on top of that, i am new to the miniature world as well. I recently came across this channel in research into painting and painting miniatures and it completely took over me in the best way possible. Everything I've learned so far for painting in general, and painting miniatures, I have learned from you guys! Between getting Raphael 8404 brushes to buying all the essential Vallejo individual paints and paint sets to getting all 3 of the Squidmar paint sets to all the in between tools, gadgets, and tricks in the trade. I can't thank you guys enough! I just completed my first model yesterday and for being the first time painting literally anything, it looked incredible and felt so rewarding! Im still learning how to create different color tones and learning how to blend colors together but that will come in time! Literally everything i have learned when it comes to painting is all because of you guys and all of your videos! Thank you so much and please keep up the wonderful and rewarding work you guys put in! I have watched damn near every video you guys have on this channel this past week(i learned so much in this week its insane) and you guys are literally my favorite channel now! A blessing for me coming into this new found hobby entirely! Cheers from Pennsylvania, USA !
missed opportunity with that light on the base maybe? the metal is nicely painted, but a bit flat without an additional colour. could have been cool to have the light do more from beneath, even lighting up the gore string perhaps.
Did you get the 180 or the 300 dollar one? I bought the 180 dollar one and am waiting on it to come. I have never used one before, but I am super excited to start.
Amazing mini Lukas! I have almost everything I need for making mini's. My 16 year old compressor got a clean-up + check-up. Got the proper Vallejo paints + wet pallet. Still waiting on my 2024 Squidmar airbrush set. Now I have to re-learn everything. Got loads of time
30 years ago I entered my one and only GD competition. I had won a couple local and online competitions, so figured "Why not, let's give it a shot!". Big surprise, I didn't even make it to the 2nd round, lol. It stung a bit, but I got to meet and hang out with my sculpting hero Jes Goodwin, and have him sign the astounding artbook he had put out back then, and got to meet "IRL" my fellow Moderators from the Bolter & Chainsword forum. You guys are outstanding painters, and sculptors, so even if the chowderhead judges don't agree, I think you two are excellent artists, and judging by the interaction and subscriber count, many others feel the same.
All I can say is that Lucas really did awesome work, starting from sketch and finishing with travelling to Germany and participating the competition! Can't say if it's better than other competitors works, but still it is project that provokes the desire to paint something similar. Just in my opinion, this work is definitelly strong and fascinating.
Imagine entering one of the Squidmar MASSIVE dioramas into such a contest. The logistics alone for getting it to the judges table would be award winning.
Amazing video! Really love the TMM haha. I know 24 hour challenges are popular videos, but for golden demon I feel like I would rather watch you guys take longer on your videos haha. Its like the World Cup of miniature painting why not push to take your time? Still love the content keep at it, can't wait to buy your paints!
Gratz! These Golden Demon videos are my favorites, really cool to see what high level painters do for these big competitions! Hope to see more in the future
Honestly one of my favorite minis you’ve ever done!! I like seeing some metallic metal on the channel and the details and textures on this one were insaneeeeee
thanks you guys for all that you do ! you have helped me stay on my painting, I just wish I could afford to get your paint sets or even get that airbrush (mine broke long time ago). I just want to say thanks even is I can show it with getting your stuff Thank you I hope all well and BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD, SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THORN, and PAINT FOR THE MINIZ
Thanks as always for great content! I don't know if you're still sanding PVC pipes to be able to paint them, but you could try using PVC cleaner instead for a better finnish. The glossy surface is an artefact of the fabrication process. PVC cleaner is what you use when connecting pipes to make glue adhere to the surface, I bet it works for paint as well.
As someone new to the hobby, this channel is so inspiring. Videos are peak quality, and the content is always on point. Thank you for giving me something to look forward to with every single post!
its genuinely INSANE that this got a finalist pin when zumikitos nurgle harbinger of decay he stuck 800 hours into only got a notable entry! honestly amazing work for 24 hours genuinely crazy how fast you are, i think if you gave this TWO days and really worked on the metals, weathering and osl for the lights this could MAYBE just maybe get a commended
Haha. First, I thought the "get better" was a snarky comment regarding him not winning. But you are wishing him to get back on his feet from his cold :D
i was in Essen as well for the first time ever and saw the entries live, they were fantastic. Wouldve loved meeting you guys tbh! Perhaps another time!!! great job L!!!
Would absolutely love to see you take this and put another 50 hours or so in and submit it for the next golden demon because holy shit this is my favorite model you guys have ever done except for the sea blue warlord titan
So you do use oil paint tints and shading, which is not part of your Vallejo kick starter. Washes do dry quicker than oils. You can even use Pro Acryl Newsh if you are under time constraint. I’m surprised you have not already covered this product with a video.
Nice idea. Thanks for focusing on necromunda which is a great game. I didn't thought about pvc tube, thanks for the hack. About The scene, the simple fact that the robot step on the rat , it should and will be smashed potato.😅
Well done, the standard was high as hell this year smashed it out the part doing it in 24 hours! I'm so glad i'm not the only one who came back from essen Sick! Seems like a lot fo people did
It is a great model, but I think for 40k/Necromunda the metal parts (lower back/legs etc.) look to clean. And as an idea: maybe next time just invest the time needed to win a golden demon, not just 24h. You have the talent. :)
I absolutely LOVE Y'alls work....and I am LOATHED to mention anything about painting given how AMAZING you guys are and how truly horrific my skillz are BUT, I would say There is only one real reason why he didn't win... (This is an area I have a fair amount of experience in...so, I feel qualified to comment on this ONE thing).... When you witness catastrophic decapitations and massive trauma events, It is NOT like what you would see in the movies....Its WAY more messy and while I was amazed at the gore trail, I think he may have been missing the spray that happens when a heart keeps pumping blood in what is no longer a closed loop system.... It is a very sub-optimal outcomes.... and oh so messy (Think Castoff from Dexter)
Hell yeah he should be proud. To even get an honorable mention and a pin is crazy!!! **FYI** H&S is having some minor shipping issues per the email they sent me. They are/have fixed it but orders may take a little longer than expected so don't panic. (United States)

link is dead. 404 not found. I ordered all 3 paint sets already though. Still waiting
@@xmasterchini6 oh damn, I'll update it. Lmk if it works
404 Error on link (at least from US)
@@SquidmarMiniatures works for me now, cheers
Watching Lucas painting the freehand letters made my jaw drop. Those are some goddamn good lettering.
This channel is among the best on RUclips, miniature hobbyists or not. Thank you for the years of content and the inspiration to push ourselves further as artists.
It couldn’t have been said it better.
Would be a truly rubbish channel for anybody not in the hobby.
Congratulations Lukas - great effort!
The speed and quality of Lukas' paint jobs are otherworldly. Help me, Obi-Wan, you're my only hope!

Looks great but I think I would have gone a bit harder on the gore to hide the guide wire
missed opportunity with that light on the base maybe? the metal is nicely painted, but a bit flat without an additional colour. could have been cool to have the light do more from beneath, even lighting up the gore string perhaps.
Notable entry + finalist pin at GD is basically equivalent to gold at any other painting competition, which is wild for 24 hours of work.
I bought the squidmar airbrush... and it's amazing. Precise, ajustable and easy to clean. I highly recommend it!
Happy you like it man
@@SquidmarMiniatures It's a really good tool! I'm glad I bought!
Did you get the 180 or the 300 dollar one? I bought the 180 dollar one and am waiting on it to come. I have never used one before, but I am super excited to start.
@@LSRibs It was cheaper than that, I pre-ordered it. And it's so easy to use/clean.

Yeah, is there a maximum width or height?😅
Just looked theough the rules pdf. Did’t dee anything about size restrictions👀
Amazing video! Really love the TMM haha. I know 24 hour challenges are popular videos, but for golden demon I feel like I would rather watch you guys take longer on your videos haha. Its like the World Cup of miniature painting why not push to take your time? Still love the content keep at it, can't wait to buy your paints!
I get it, Lukas had time for and additional entry. Here spent his majority of time on the nurgle entry:)
NICE WORK! I love your videos and your humor makes it so much fun to watch! More cookies for Lucas!
Gratz! These Golden Demon videos are my favorites, really cool to see what high level painters do for these big competitions! Hope to see more in the future
Honestly one of my favorite minis you’ve ever done!! I like seeing some metallic metal on the channel and the details and textures on this one were insaneeeeee
You all are what makes this community around the world so special. Many blessings to all of you out there. And many wonderful painting sessions!
that's a really really impressive piece. always blown away by what you guys do.
Well done Lucas!
And get well soon (you are not the only one with a convention flue)!
It was a pleasure meeting both of you at SPIEL!
Get well soon Lukas! Still angry that I don't went to Essen this year. Just a 1 hour drive for me...
The work was awesome and it was a huge pleasure to meet you and Emil!
Amazing Painting, great video, thanks for being the best lads!
I've seen professional painters put months of work in and get a pin, you should be super proud!
Awesome job Lukas!! Congrats on that accomplishment with those limitations you set for yourself. Amazing!!
Get well soon, Lukas!
Already saw some pictures from you in Essen. seems you had a great time. looking forward to seeing the recap video

I don't paint miniatures, I'm a full gunpla guy but I truly enjoy yalls content and this was pretty cool and want to learn more about golden demon.
I honestly just love your content! Actually made me return to the hobby after 25 years
turned out so good!! your painting is so good it honestly made the true metallic paint stick out like a sore thumb
Can't believe how fine your brush work is . particularly the fee hand on the base another mini work of art.
As someone new to the hobby, this channel is so inspiring. Videos are peak quality, and the content is always on point. Thank you for giving me something to look forward to with every single post!
Incredible Lukas !! That's a really good job and thanks you to share with us all this moment !
Congrats !! 👍
Awesome job Lukas. Thank you for this great video.
That is damned impressive! 24 hours of building and painting and getting recognition for it is awesome dude!
It was awesome meeting you guys in person at Essen. Hope to see you again next year!
Get well, Lukas! I also got sick after Spiel. It was really nice to see there
Awesome work Lucas!!!! Feel better soon!!!
Amazing work Lukas! You can be really proud!
It was really amazin for just 24h!!! Great work Lukas!
Great effort! It was really nice to meet you in Essen.
its genuinely INSANE that this got a finalist pin when zumikitos nurgle harbinger of decay he stuck 800 hours into only got a notable entry!
honestly amazing work for 24 hours genuinely crazy how fast you are, i think if you gave this TWO days and really worked on the metals, weathering and osl for the lights this could MAYBE just maybe get a commended
Congrats! Great job...love the gore effects
Cool entry featuring the Traitor rock book art with minka lesk!
Turned out so frickin good! One of the best from the category 💥💥💥
Lukas & Emil I gotta say I love the videos, the editing, the ideas, the vibe, the jokes... just everything is so nice to watch 🤩❤
Get better Lucas, great mini, very dynamic, keep up the great work
Haha. First, I thought the "get better" was a snarky comment regarding him not winning. But you are wishing him to get back on his feet from his cold :D

You guys are INSANE! Lukas, well done man, geez!
I can barely get enough sleep in 24 hours let alone legitimately compete in a painting comp. Solid and cool mini
Amazing work, feel better Lukas!
Harry Potter painting minis always brightens my day
Nice job on that Lukas. You definitely deserve cookies!
Great work Lukas! Hope you're better soon.
Very very talented painter and amazing mini! Congrats!
On a side note, loving your BGMs.
Big giant manparts?
Would absolutely love to see you take this and put another 50 hours or so in and submit it for the next golden demon because holy shit this is my favorite model you guys have ever done except for the sea blue warlord titan

I received your wet palette 2 days ago !! I can't be happier ! Thank you !! Next step to buy a humidifier like yours :)
Awesome, happy you like it!
Amazing work Lucas!!!!!
Hope you guys share the true metallic metal over on squidly bits! Looks great!
Amazing painting by Mr. Cookie. Get well soon!
bought the 3 paint set. Hella excite.
Lukas deserves at least one cookie for that paint work!
It seems that even RUclipsrs can't avoid confluenza, glad to know I'm in good company!
What Lukas came away with doesn't matter. What he created in the time is just fantastic. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
O yeah , I am so excited about this airbrush ......squidmar addition!!!! It looks freaking amazing just saw the video from H&S.....🎉
Well, Lukas, you may not have won. But, you won in my heart! Great job! 💜
Nice painting as always 👍👍
Nice idea. Thanks for focusing on necromunda which is a great game. I didn't thought about pvc tube, thanks for the hack.
About The scene, the simple fact that the robot step on the rat , it should and will be smashed potato.😅
I would be really interested in how you transported the mini without breaking the glue effects
such a good build!
Terrific piece, very impressive as usual!
Came out super dope man.
Would love to see something with less restrictions. Just try your best no time limits or whatever.
Well done, the standard was high as hell this year smashed it out the part doing it in 24 hours!
I'm so glad i'm not the only one who came back from essen Sick! Seems like a lot fo people did
I love the finished model, such a great Paintjob ❤ Is there any chance for a full tutorial for the colour scheme on the Automaton?
Lucas great work well done
Holy forking shirt balls, Lukas' brush control is magical. I hope that he is already feeling better.
It is a great model, but I think for 40k/Necromunda the metal parts (lower back/legs etc.) look to clean.
And as an idea: maybe next time just invest the time needed to win a golden demon, not just 24h.
You have the talent. :)
Congratulations Lukas! Those judges were obviously biased!!! 😅
Even though you didn’t win, you created an incredible masterpiece of a miniature.
Honestly incredible work
That forest goblin looks so good! Inspires to also paint some!
No way you guys were in my home town 🔥 and props to Lucas for creating such an awesome mini in such a short period of time!
Think there should have been a blood splatter along the floor, but it still looks really cool!
What an amazing paint job. The beheaded rat is brutal. Such a nice video. Get well, Lucas!!!!!
that piece was epic ! now i want to do one too
I absolutely LOVE Y'alls work....and I am LOATHED to mention anything about painting given how AMAZING you guys are and how truly horrific my skillz are BUT, I would say There is only one real reason why he didn't win...

Incredible 24 hour job bro
Well done, Lukas one incredible mini 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Was fantastic meeting you guys at Essen!
We had a blast, so much nice people!
I couldn't even make a base in 24 hours. Well done.
Awesome mini!!!!!
There is always next time, I thought it looked awesome your amazing and you deserve cookies, I hope you try again
Congrats with reaching the finals Lukas.
Hell yeah he should be proud. To even get an honorable mention and a pin is crazy!!!
