    Pink is underrated perfection for Dark Eldar armour.

    I really love this whole series. I watched the whole series on Patreon where you did the Raider. I did an entire Drukhari army in the turquoise scheme. It was my first full proper army. It makes me happy everytime I see this video.

    Thanks for this one guys. The pink scheme is exactly what I was trying to picture for my future Drukhari warband so I will absolutely be ripping that off. So strange how pink the VMA Red ends up looking!

    Yes! Thanks Henry this was a great vid 🤘🏻I love the pink scheme and will definitely be trying some of the techniques out. I want to achieve a solid grim dark style with mine so it’ll be interesting to see how things like streaking grime look over this type of work up. Cheers again!

      Yeah I’d be dirtying them up for a personal army, I think the pink one in particular came out really well. If you’re gonna go heavy with the enamel washes then make sure it’s way too bright to begin with.

    Even with their elaborate look, kabalites are one of the fastest models to paint. Just like to space marine, if not easier. After Skitarii its just a breeze, so easy. Preshade, thinspray, highlight, details, base, done.

    I don't know how he gets his oil washes so perfect. I can only get granulation and sediment from the oil paint settling on my models and I don't understand what I am doing wrong. The Drukhari look awesome!

    Another incredible video. I’ve tried using the tamia white and it’s way better than other stuff I’ve used. Is there any tricks to clean the airbrush though cause the tamia seems to give me more grief than acrylic due to not playing nice with water I guess ha. ?

    • @cultofpaint

      It does seem to need more cleaning than just about any other paint! I use normal airbrush cleaner and a qtip.

    Firstly, and this is not uncommon with your work, very well presented and great finish. But I have to ask, is that sort of work good for army painting. If you were doing a kill team I can see the time invested would not be so bad as there would be 10 models or so. But when it is an army for 40k do you think it is the sort of job where you either don't game with the figures or you game with patches of grey in your force until you have the time to complete the task. I ask because the airbrush work looked particularly time heavy. Especially with multiple layers going on the figures. By comparison, I painted a bunch of Sisters Rhinox Hide and then went with a Flesh Tearers Red (Contrast) over the armour. Job done pretty quickly and the Rhinox gave the recessed areas quite the shadow. Where as the legs, arms and shoulders caught the light beautifully with the red. My rule of thumb has been, big numbers need quicker jobs with time spent on Characters.

    Could you recommend a substitute for the VMA Red you used for the pink scheme? Having difficulty finding that paint without ludicrous foreign shipping prices at the moment. Great job on these by the way, absolutely great.

    On the turquoise scheme, do you apply the base of incubi over a white prime? Or a black prime?

  • @A69312
    @A69312 3 года назад

    After having gone through the Raider as well, would you still go for incubi darkness first and then terradon turquoise on the Kabalite? (Or did you change the method for the Kabalite after having completed both?)

    • @cultofpaint

    What about us poor unfortunate souls who have not jumped onto the Contrast bandwagon? Would inks suffice for pin washing? I have several of the Tamiya panel washes, which I love, I imagine those would do fine as well, yes?

      You can pin wash with anything. We did a whole video on how different paints behave.

    At 2:00 when you say three drops of thinner to paint, is that three drops of thinner to three drops of paint, or three drops of thinner to one drop of paint, or some other ratio...? (EDIT: realized moments after typing this that it was stupid to ask three drops of thinner to three drops of paint because if that were the case you would have just said one-to-one ratio... -_-) I know thinning paint is a much more qualitative than quantitative proposition, but proper consistency has always been a big nebulous mystery to me and I'm spending a lot of time stripping paint off of test minis after disastrous results, haha.

      Follow a guide that doesn't use an airbrush. Use a rattle can and then the other techniques here. Maybe try drybrushing.
