im assuming if citadel like corax white or something.

you get just the one heavy bolter sadly :(

These were glow in the dark crystals from green stuff world. They look kind of off white normally I think I just did a thin layer of tesseract glow over them so they still glow through but look a more neon green in light

@@giantsdenminis8727 Thank you

Glad this video was helpful! You should never be afraid to start painting just go for it

I tend to go back and forth between texture paints (Vallejo is the best bang for the buck in my opinion) and plain old play sand from the hardware store or beach

Thank you!

Definitely could go that route, I think the main difference is you would have less black in the recesses and I find the metallic pigments in the sprays tend to be larger than than the pot paints. Though for army painting it would speed things up even further

Definitely is, I end up reshaking it pretty frequently throughout the process

Thanks! Glad I could be of help. Main take away I had from this project was how much patience is required trying to paint in this style. Between the recess shading and edge highlighting on ridiculous amount of panels on these big boys it takes a very long time. Good luck on yours!

Thanks for the kind words, I took a bit of time off with some new babies but am hoping to be back to making some content here pretty soon. Unfortunately I did these ultras as a one off, but I am going to be working on a small blood ravens army soon so may try to get some videos up for those

Thanks!

doing it over a metallic primer definitely saves even more time! Glad to be able to help, I may do another video in the futures with one of the HQs to a bit of a higher standard but we will see!

Ha thanks, point taken I guess the regular headphone microphone will only take you so far

I use the same, it's Army Painter Masterclass Drybrush

Army Painter dry brush - they are decent but recently I have been preferring the monument hobbies dry brushes

I think it would be a great way to knock out the 90%+ of the models that will inevitably be silver/metal really quickly then you could paint the dynasty colors over. Though I would definitely do some heavy weathering and/or chipping over any non metallic paint to make it match with the dirty/grimey feel the drybrushing/washing over the black gives to the metallics otherwise it may clash

Thank you!

Fair point, easy enough to replace them with some rocks or other debris instead to not draw attention from the models

@@giantsdenminis8727 They would be amazing on pieces of terrain or something. I still might have a go at them when I get round to painting haha, I've had necrons sitting on a shelf buried under dust, ironic considering what necrons are haha. Enjoyed the video, it's always good to try new things and see what works, even if it isn't perfect.

Thank you!

I may need to do a video on one of the HQs from the Idomitus to a bit higher standard, seems to be some interest in a follow-up on the neco-boys and the basing

I'm thinking he means Tesseract Glow which is a technical paint

Thanks!

Thank you very much! Took some time off with new babies but hoping to get back into making some content soon

I may try to do one in the future. For these I think I used these crystals from GSW : www.greenstuffworld.com/en/transparent-resin/1439-green-glow-resin-crystals-small.html and did a thin layer of tesseract glow over them then used GW astrogranite debris over the rest with a very thinned down wash of 1:1 nuln oil and agrax earthshade with a very light drybrush of any light0ish gray color

Thank you!

GW martian iron earth and martian iron crust. To make it a bit more varied in the textures I try to put one of them first over 50% of the base give or take in a varied pattern then while it is still wet out the other one on the rest and wet blend the areas where they touch a little bit. Once they are dry you will have (in my opinion) a more realistic finish between cracks and dirt textures. Once dry just a light dry brush with any light brown or sandy yellow color to add some definition and it makes for a good table top level base.

I painted one tester and left them on the shelf unfortunately. I will try to find time in the future to get them back out and paint them

@@giantsdenminis8727 no stress! I'm looking forward when you come around to it.

I'm not sure if they're exactly the same but Green Stuff World do these : www.greenstuffworld.com/en/transparent-resin/1463-green-glow-resin-crystals-medium.html?search_query=Crystal&results=32

Matt is right, I used the greenstuffworld glow in the dark crystals and put a thin layer of tesseract glow to give them a nicer color in daylight without getting rid of all of the glow in the dark ability

Whatever it’s such a minor thing

Ha thanks, but I can get a bit lazy on the barrels. I ended up giving these ones away after painting them so didn't put too much forethought into that

Great tutorial I'm having a hard time getting the blue armor to look correct. I feel like macragge blue always looks too dark when I base with it

Would love to do more LOTR minis but don't have a huge collection. I may need to grab some of the new army boxes, though to be fair would probably be doing some Rohan first since that is always my favorite!

Thanks!

Thanks! I tend to just stick to black 99% of the time. I usually use Vallejo black primer through an airbrush since it saves so much $$$ over GW primers, but Chaos Black is the next best thing out of a rattle can

Yes and no. The effect will be similar but not as dirty and interesting on a textur effect. Dry brush in this case give some nice effects on flat panels that spray can + nuln oil doesn't. Their is still a method to achieve and similar effect with cans, an light zenithal priming with leadbelcher (or any other low-pressure metallic paint spraycan). It's an double speed effect because you can skip the first dry brush stage from the tutorial and the nuln oil stage that you propose. And if you've an air brush, give a try to steel or dark aluminium from Vallejo it achieves the same effect too.

Bit late but a common way to make crystals is to use hotglue sticks cut into crystals then heated very slightly with a lighter to make them clear, then painted over in a clear colour to give it that see-through green glow in the light. Can also use foam or similar materials.

These: www.greenstuffworld.com/en/transparent-resin/1439-green-glow-resin-crystals-small.html then coat them in a thin layer of tesseract glow so they look a bit more fluorescent but still maintain a bit of the glow in the dark abilities when the lights are off

Thanks, glad you found it entertaining! I’ll have some different Blood Angel videos coming out soon as I finally get around to getting through Indomitus.

Thanks!

Thanks for the support, glad to have you here!

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

Glad you found it helpful! I added the paints used into the description as well.

Thanks! Eyes are something I’ve always struggled with since I have pretty shaky hands

Thanks!

Glad it was helpful! The Vallejo line has some really great paints
