Absolutely brilliant work - The Solar Auxilia is the real gem of Legions Imperialis !
Tank battalions for DAAAYYYYYSSS! :D
Amazing and inspiring work. I really want to see more of that army, namely the infantry models and newer releases.
@@MarneusAndMilkyBlood I'll be doing an update on it when I paint something other than more tanks!
Really appreciate the detail on the oil wash after a comment I posted on the legions video. That's answered the question and visualised it perfectly. Oil washing is one of those parts of painting I agonise over due to inexperience, and this will go a long way to helping! Genuinely one of the best channels for painting on the internet.
This is getting saved till I get my set
Lovely. I'll be coming back to this for my own army once I get the models. I'd love to see more videos as this peronal project evolves and unfolds. I've only just found your channel because of these Legions Imperialis videos. Great stuff!
I will endeavour to do updates on my Solar, but not sure how popular they will be....
I'll watch them all...😂
Please bring a Update ... love this scheme @@cultofpaint
Synthetic brush hairs are my go to choice for super-miniature whippy aerials as well! I really enjoyed the colour choices here, great inspiration!
They look great!
I’m so glad someone finally did a painting video for Solar Auxilia! I have a Solar auxilia force I’m slowly building in Horus heresy! And I’m hyped!
Great job mate, you've really nailed scaling down that forgeworld/military style. A whole army will look stunning.
I love Warhammer but I tend to enjoy the Heresy era way more than 40k. I just bought the Legions Imperialis box and I'll be using your video as inspiration on my tanks. I love how your tanks came out.
Love the laid back approach to this project, very inspiring and feels achievable while being effective. I'll be coming back often and repaetedly to these vids!
Brilliant video. Youve convinced me this is a far better way to fulfil my bucket list of guard tank army than 32mm
Aonther great LI video, really enjoying these! Thanks Henry!
Of all the books on the hobby that I'd love to have, that one's right up around the top! Those names are ingrained in my memory from back when I was first into the hobby long ago...
It's great to see this approach to metals with and without metallic paints. The tanks look like they've really been through it, but are still tough and dangerous. It's also good to see this faction get such deserved attention before pivoting away from armour on the next video, looking forward to whatever it may be!
Love your philosophy and that you took the time to discuss your inspiration. Great first video for me to stumble on and discover your channel with.
I love this paint job! I find your work really inspirational I can't wait to see the rest of the army come together over time. I'm gonna get Solar Auxilia for this game as well when I've finished my current Cities of Sigmar project! All the best to ye!
What a lovely colour scheme. Great vid.
Brilliant! I love the simplicity you did and what a great result with all the extra little steps. Would love to see you do different Solar Auxilia schemes similar to what you did for the legions.
One more day to go! Can’t wait!
absolutely love these! the scheme is great, simple but very striking!
Funnily enough my first real 'intro" into WH and such was the Forge World Vol I and II as well - brought back my love for scale models and transformed it for Warhammer
AMAZING results! Great video! Thanks for your advices!
These look so good!
Outstanding, please make sure we get some shots of these on the tabletop 🙏
Very imspiring! Watching you paint is like the most relaxing thing on youtube ❤
100% dope work! I am in serious Tank love now! 🧡
Love them! Great to hear your thoughts on approach and your workflow. Also, passion coming across for your personal gaming army is great. Cheers!
This is just a video I needed! Right on time! Thanks a lot!
Henry mate this is absolutely brilliant. I'm so pumped to pick up my preorders tomorrow and start on my solar auxillia. This video got me right in the happy feels 😎
Nice one Nick!
Not seen your channel before - Incredible content 👏
Liked & subscribed. More please 😊
An alternative for people who don't want to inhale the plastic fumes for a radio aerial is to go to a department/hardware store and buy a cheap dustpan and brush set with black nylon bristles. One brush will last multiple lifetimes of hobbying.
I often use bristles, as mentioned in the video. The thing I like about this technique is that you can vary the thickness easily. I found the bristlesntoo think for these tanks
Gorgeous work
Fantastic work, I've been waiting for this video to drop since you mentioned last week you'd be doing one on the SA.
Really enjoy your work! Thanks for doing these.
Imagine my ears perking up when you said Hull Red was your favourite paint. It's mine too! I fell in love with it like 5-6 years ago when I first painted a Khador Warjack and never looked back. It's just so versatile and beautiful.
Thanks for the video, your style of painting pulled me out of a bad hobby spot and got me into trying out oil paints. Looking forward to having more hobby time (exams are a thing for me right now) and trying out mor of your techniques.
There's just something about it right.
Absolutely fab, can’t wait to try it myself
These are superb, cant wait to get my hands on my Imperialis set.
Loved this video. I don't play, but enjoy painting minis. You gave me some great ideas I can use elsewhere. Thank you!
I would love to see you tackle this scheme on the 28mm solar auxilia! I loved this scheme and it would be cool to see what you do on the big boys!
That sounds like a very good idea!
just great
Really hoping to see you tackle the infantry too.
Awesome mate.. They look ace.
It is an absolutely beautiful tank! I will definitetly take inspiration with the logos and maybe even the main blueish-gray colur for me Legion Imperialis too :D
Curses! Mine arrives in two days. I'm not sure I've been this excited for a GW release in many moons. They look amazing Henry and you've touched on all the techniques I'm looking forward to employing.
Looking very nice! And when you were doing the weapons, I was thinking I should get that paint as well, but hold on, don't I have a metallic drybrush paint from that series? Oh, yeah I do, and iiiiit's...Gun Metal. Awesome.
Enjoyed this video, finally subscribed! thank you
Thanks for the sub!
I really like using a pencil to edge highlight tracks. Here and there.
I did this on the tester model. And I liked it, but felt it was one step that could be missed out.
awesome! thanks
awesome video! also around 13:38 I think you got some oil wash on your camera lens. In case that's a problem and should be cleaned off :D The tanks look incredible!
Top Talent making it look easy
Looking very cool, the temptation to do a little baby leman russ to guard the desk is very strong
An excellent idea.
STUNNING!!🎉🎉
As a traditional military modeler (and wannabe mini painter) I always love seeing 40K and 30k armor painted in a more traditional military modeling style. Also I need to find a copy of that book… which knowing GW second hand prices will likely cost me about $10,000 😂
Great work on the tanks - especially considering how very small they are.
I am far more exited for the solar auxilia than i am for the space marines.
I have this picture in my head about a tank coloumn driving through a destroyed factory and directly into an enemy titan. I will try my best to replicate it in a diorama with my minis.
I have no amount of skill or talent with painting, I bought that book and I learned some of those techniques for my guard army. The chipping methods, graphite trick for barrels and Oil Wash all are things I do to my tanks. Pigments as well.
Looks killer mate, makes me want to paint some up
It was the same book that got me back into 40K and I dived straight into a Baneblade, which in hindsight was a bit of a mistake, I should gone for one of the Russ models I had unfinished as it was a bit of big project to perfect the techniques on. The revamp of epic is going to make it much easier and this is a great scheme to base mine off.
these look great!
I just bought myself and my son a copy of the game, haven't really played much games workshop stuff for many years, so the 'lore' is somewhat different from when I remember, I am going to paint mine up as Sons of Horus and my son is either going imperial fists or Ultramarines, I cannot find any schemes or what SA armies go with either of them.
Love the painting, looks really good.
Cthonian Headhunters. Black and red. Those solar go with your Sons of Horus.
Calth High Guard, silver blue and white. They go with your Ultras
@@cultofpaint thats really good of you, thank you :)
Did I miss a Matt varnish stage?
Best. Book. Ever. GW painting one, anyway
georgeous!
Cool as always.
Great video Henry!
Would love to see your take on the knights and titans at this scale as well!
Covered a bunch of titan stuff over on Patreon
Awesome work. Subbed.
I also paint up 6mm GHQ models - WW2 micro armour to play historicals. Adding cammo foliage and aerials, weathering and chipping, and even divisional/company badge markings is a go for the heresy! Micro set/micro sol is very good for decals too.
6mm!!!!!!!???
@@cultofpaint indeed!
Wow, you've just shown me how bloody good an oil wash is on these. Like, I was gonna wash them ,but didn't think to use an oil wash - looks incredible!!! :O
I'm going with an urban/city camo on mine, so lots of squares/triangles across them, then will go over with an oil wash :D
Looking forward to seeing camo'd up versions
I can’t wait for these guys at normal scale in HH. But this does tempt me for epic
Will be awesome if we get them big scale
I'd recommend using less spirits with your oil paint, it will flow just as well but you won't have to do it 2 or 3 times. You're using a shed load of spirits for the amount of paint you're using. You really don't need oil paint to be as thin as an acrylic wash for it to flow nicely. Lovely work on the tank though
That wash did cover nearly 20 tanks.
Love them. Painting tiny tanks is just too much fun and makes it tempting to build an armoured company to support the legion I’m gonna paint up. Even more so if/when they release a Shadowsword 😅
More superheavies. Always.
Fantastic video. I’ve really had a hard time deciding on the color scheme for my own traitor Solar Auxilia but you really inspired me and gave me some great ideas. I know Henry said he’s holding off on the infantry until the transports are related but will you be releasing a painting tutorial for the infantry when he starts to work on them?
I'll do an update vid on my Solar and include it in that
@@cultofpainthope to see it soon! ❤
Where did you get the transfers? They look great
I'm going to use this as my guide for the free Mini of the Month GW is giving away.
Wonderful video. Loving the Epic coverage! What’s your guidance on thinning GW paints for airbrushing? Keen to try your method for Dark Angels once my Legions Imperialis arrive…. :)
I Just Use my normal Airbrush thinner until I get the consistency I want
Genius. I love it. I’m going to try and replicate with a winter camo scheme - any suggestions on colours? Keep up the good work!
Probably see if MiG has a winter camo set!
Cheers, will do.
Did you thin down your gloss varnish?
Yes I thin my polyurethane one. Approx 2 drops thinner per 1 drop varnish. But you may need to adjust to your own settings etc
I use very fine guitar wire
would you recommend a similar approach on the aircraft?
Yes
O.G. AT and epic player - still had one foot firmly in the 'would be good if it wasn't just heresy' camp, until your last vid; after which, I ordered the box.
I'm pumped for the titans and super-heavies, but I wasn't around for the AT re-release, so I feel I'm a bit behind. Anxiously FOMO'ing about large waves being announced, selling-out, then the game being sunsetted, while I'm left holding a starter box. Hope not!
Seems everyone's doing a Legion, so I might join you and the other guy in chat, to make 3 SA players, in total - being so few of us, I do feel a bit bad that I will have to Scour you 😅
I reckon this iteration of the game is gonna be safe for a fair old while...
@@cultofpaint so... got 2 starters and 2 battle groups, now - thinking about how to adapt the process to a white base...
Another fantastic video, where did the chaos decals come from please?
Mainly the chaos knights sheet from 40k
@@cultofpaintmarvellous, thanks
When using Tamiya paints with a brush, what are you cleaning /rinsing the brush with?
Isopropyl alcohol
Where is this book available?
Hol up how do you get these tiny tanks?
what was that book you had at the start of the video mate
It's one of the old forgeworld books, Imperial Armour - Model Masterclass vol. 1. Kind of pricey now as they're oop, but you can find free pdf copies online usually.
Wouldn't a wire be better for the antenna? Those will break off if you breath on them.
They've held up very well. Plastic glue bonded together. But yes wire is fine too, as long as your contact point is good then no bother.
I do like the little tanks, but im less keen on the infantry. I cant tell if thats just the box art colour scheme doing them dirty or the designs of the models themselves
yeh im not a big fan of the design of the infantry. Hoping to find a conversion technique simple enough to do a whole army in
Fabulous as ever
How do you plan to do your infantry?
Same as I did the lads in the turrets here.
What colors would you use for the main body using GW colors??
No idea. But they've loads of greens so you're bound to find a couple that are close enough. Pop into a store and compare some together in your hand.
Weird question: how many tanks do u need for a game.
Not sure. There's a fair amount available. Plus it depends on the points level for the game. I think there's about 1000 points on show in this video
Tell me you are doing Flesh Eater Courts next??? 🤔 fantastical, gribly, and flesh.....hmmm
Maybe....
@@cultofpaint oh you tease 😏
Solar Auxilia Best Army
Great looking Solar. What decals did you use on these? Are the chaos symbols free hand?
Mainly from the Chaos Knight sheet
I need to learn to compromise to a higher level.
Wish I didn't sell my Imperial Armour modelling book 😢
