How to EDGE HIGHLIGHT Warhammer - Is it worth it?

Buy the brushes used in this video: store.artis-op...
Edge highlighting is the cornerstone of Games Workshop's painting method, with their Eavy metal team, and their power-armoured space-marines always pristine and crisp... But is is worth doing?
In this video we're loading you up with so many tips and tricks you'll be able to learn how to edge-highlight, how to get away without edge-highlighting, and how to find your own middle-ground in-between, whether you want to just try it on a character, or 'cheat' your way through an army with drybrushed edges!

[@GertjanDeGlas]

What I'd really like to know is how you would go about painting different textures (painted metal, leather, cloth, bone, etc.) using your more unique style of painting. I've watched a lot of tutorials touching upon textures, but none of them very in-depth, and the ones that are look very fussy and fiddly. Maybe you've got some suggestions or techniques in that regard? As always, thanks for a lovely detailed tutorial!

[@SimonHeal-th5rv]

As someone returning to the hobby from a several decades break, I would love to see a full length video of a complete paint job. From selecting a mini, to selecting a colour scheme, to basing and a varnish coat. Keep the great vids coming.👍

[@SplittingMnut25]

You might be interested in some of Artis Opus's older videos that cover some of these topics. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZeyc42YeNCapZY kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWPZhmaNmtOUeLs

[@robertjohnson558]

Yes! I've been looking for something like that for the past month. Everyone seems to either skip the "boring" parts. I want to see how everyone base coats different parts of the model, how many coats they do etc.

[@ishaelin]

I'd really love to see someone who has not painted before, paint with Byron as a teacher. I think it may help highlight to people what your first minis may look like, and that you really can't "ruin" it. Bonus points if you have them paint 3, and show the two they do after the first at the end of the vid. Just to show their progress in the learning process as they figure things out by just doing the thing after learning the basics! 👍

[@themadvillain6199]

I'll leave a comment... For a while I struggled with my paint jobs...I watch hours of KZbin videos trying to find a style/formula but never was happy. I came across the ultimate drybrushing tutorial and it did it for me man, felt good about my work thanks to you. So good sir I appreciate the time and effort you put into your guides. Thank you.

[@MisterMakerMan]

Huge fan I have a suggestion for a video. Can you make a dry brushing for dummies.. meaning show what it looks like when you have too much paint too little paint or pressure and show us what doing it wrong looks like. So essentially help me figure out why I can't even get close to the same planet as you lol😂

[@saline4296]

that would honestly be so helpful since i cant drybrush to save my life lmao😅

[@drrruuuu]

Absolutely!! I'm a total newbie so this is what I need the most! LOL😂🤣

[@MrWizzyfizzy]

Yep , Iv tried to follow videos but never seem to get it looking 🤌🤌🤌, very keen for your noob videos plz 🙏

[@gravballemandendk]

I love the videos, and how you show mistakes and how to fix them. thats really usefull. I would love if you would detail what brush size you use for what. Sometimes its hard to know as a noob, if i should go with as small as possible, or if i should be able to do something with a size 1 or 0. I would love a video on how to paint chaos deamons, or at least some of the work that goes into making rotten skin seem "slimey" and those effects.(organic effects)

[@nehanoor3558]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@whoissyx]

I know it's not exactly all that common but I'd love to see how you handle painting translucent/transparent bits on minis I tried doing this myself recently and it turned out ok so I'd love to see a decent tutorial for that!!! Fantastic video as always!!!

[@philipbowles5397]

Definitely - I've looked for videos for painting translucent effects on non-translucent models (thinking of translucent effects on Nighthaunt) and not coming up with much other than a guide or two focused on the Scinari Cathallar, which rely on the fact that the model is specifically designed to facilitate that effect. For stuff like Fire Prism actually translucent bits I was just lazy and glazed them...

[@eduardorodriguez2946]

Honestly same

[@alyssabeth6177]

I agree!

[@rokosue]

❤

[@SamuraiSquirrel]

I agree with this, I’ve struggled finding many tutorials on this, great suggestion.

suggestion: some tips about painting large organic surfaces, specifically leathery (bat) wings , maybe the shadow queen (morathi) ? or for 40kers Tyranid flyers I guess

[@FJimenez92]

A winged nazgul would be great 😇

[@Robonator14]

This video really helped me understand how little it matters for me to paint perfectly or not, because its so easy to fix it afterwards. It also really showcased how going the extra mile will certainly lift it up, but its debateable if the difference is even worth all the extra effort, because i would have been already more than happy with the pre-extra-edgehighlighting step. Also it made me order new brushes.

[@Theotherone89]

I would like to see a full guide for painting a complete model (maybe just a basic space marine intercessor, something anyone can get their hands on) with these techniques. Split it into 3 sections. Here is start to finish for beginners, then intermediate, then expert. That way someone can follow along with a step by step guide and start getting comfortable with these techniques not just in theory but in application on a complete model. Love your stuff! I’ve been dying to get my painting up to a level that I can justify getting your brushes.

[@wimerek496]

Agree 💯 I struggle to know how to move from one stage or process to the next and how to fix my mistakes

[@jacobreading1423]

Would love to see a detailed video on how to use the texture palette, I know it seems common detail but just a overview and like do you spray it before using it etc also quick and easy way to do demons :-) Just picked up some brushes and can't wait to use them :-)

[@mountaineerminis9671]

I would love to see a battle damage video. Or a video on taking care of dry brushes and Artius opus brushes in general. Also the uses of the Artius opus mat.

[@ilovelindsayk]

I agree!

[@sullyofphilly]

I'd love to see any tutorial covering blending with speedpaints. Just got a huge set and I'd like to know anything to enhance them honestly.

[@UnknownHost-mv1pq]

Yes that would be awesome to learn more techniques for speed paints !

[@M40kc]

Honestly would like to see you fully paint a model! These tutorials are great but would love to see a step by step process on a full mini!

[@guilhemgp]

Hello from France! 🇫🇷 I really love this video. It is one of my favorites of yours. Your pro tips, how you explain them, how you illustrate them, how you show them in action, how you edit your videos to show where exactly the action is... They are so good! I learn so much from them and they give me so much inspiration for my own way of painting. I used the one with the chaos shield to try and I had a really awesome and easy result on an arminger! And this one was magically timed with my current thoughts about how I should load my brush as I have difficulties to obtain the results I want and I was talking about that today with my brother! 😊 I am always stunned by your dry brush technique and I really enjoy when you show them with use or comparison to other techniques. But the most important part that give me so much joy is how you talk about mistakes, how to handle them how you explain why it's ok with so much positive attitude. I'm very perfectionist but I don't have yet the necessary control on my brush for it. But thanks to you I still stay motivated to continue to improve. Thank you so much for that. And I learn a lot from that. It give a "feel good" feeling when watching. For future videos, I'm really curious about what you will show with an airbrush and I don't know if you have already done videos about cape or leather ones but I'm interested on techniques for clothes. Continue your impressive work and I hope one day I will be able to meet you at an event and buy you a drink! 🍺😎

[@johnshaft5613]

Great video and great channel! It kills me how many skilled painters on the 'net "shun" the use of dry-brushing and washes. While certainly not useful for everything, there are many things for which washes/dry-brushing are not just merely the fastest way to do it, but the best way.

[@GoufinAround_]

I'm literally using drybrushing to do all my base highlights for my Raven Guard. Going from a base coat of pro acryl black and using their dark warm grey to do a highlight looks fantastic for giving making the shapes easier to see and giving the armor a worn look. It looks amazing

[@FJimenez92]

My suggestion: a video explanation of skin colors for both monsters or humans, or some Middle Earth related content would be appreciated as well 🥺

[@KennethHejnfelt]

A few years ago you made a video about Drybrushing NMM. I would love to see a more detailed video covering that subject, maybe even with other colors then silver. Fantastic video as always!!!

[@Vicky1138thx]

I’m on my holiday but I’ve got wi fi so glad I didn’t miss it . I would like to see a tutorial on NMM , but specifically on where to place the dark and light spots and transitions in between . Also I fell on the floor laughing when you said “ your prob better than me “ your so funny 😂😂😂

[@Joe_Smo]

I'd like to see something like water spray or wet armor on a full marine or item. Like if it was a hard rain during the fight. Yeah a hard rain and extremely muddy terrain. So hard the rain splashes up from the mud making the armor even muddier. Like the best rainy football games or like their slogging along trying to take a hard objective in the soup. Even half faces or helmets covered in mud with small chunks of mud and grass and grainy bits. I've never seen that done. Maybe even ultra realistic or grim dark style but without all the messy oil covering. Something more precise rather than just slopped oil layer hiding the paint. Love the channel! Thank you. I'm late to the party so if you really like the idea can I get an honorable mention? :)

[@villagemeatball]

I'd love to see a video of object source lighting using a drybrush and how that compares to using an airbrush or glazing. EDIT: Basically a similar video comparison to this except following up on the osl for beginners and how different osl techniques such as using an airbrush, glazing and drybrush compare when it comes to time, effect, steps, etc.

[@duchoang5410]

I believe he already has an osl guide, but I assume this is more about seeing it compared to other methods which I think he doesn’t show in his guide.

[@villagemeatball]

Yup exactly, I should have clarified that better as seeing a comparison between the different techniques for osl similar to this video comparing drybrushing and edge highlighting@@duchoang5410

[@joshbernal4864]

I could never understand why sometimes the paint on my brush would last way longer when highlighting until you described the flow of water on the brush and going down too close to the ferrule. Thanks Byron, I learn something everything I watch your videos!

[@ArtisOpus]

Any opportunity to drop useful nerdy physics in is worth taking! :D Our pleasure, buddy :)

[@wotan1280]

I would love to see a video showing you how you can incorporate new techniques you learn in your hobby into an old project you started years ago without the new models looking out of place.

[@andrewjansen2211]

A video or series on planning an army paint scheme would be very handy. You could discuss which painting techniques and colours you would choose for different areas of the army i.e characters Vs troops plus basing techniques. All weighing up speed Vs quality to get a whole army painted.

[@Trash_panda_bjj]

I would love to see how you approach a model with lots of recesses. Something a Necron Reanimator, with lots of overlapping areas. And thank you for all your videos. I have only starting painting in the past couple of months. And your videos have helped no end!

[@Dithyrambos-h5e]

I think something focused on accessibility would be great. We have a lot of painters who struggle with finer details due to this or that health reason and showing how you can work around some of that would be really interesting. There are already some KZbinrs in that space, but I think this channel's usual style could bring an interesting twist to that and help bridge the gap between "GW-style" painting and what some of those other channels do.

[@magiccitymage203]

Couldn't agree more, great suggestion!

[@Houkuko]

I really love how you approach the subjects in a realistic way. I'm not new to mini painting but have recently begun stepping beyond the "battle ready" level of completion, experimenting with advanced techniques and making some display-worthy pieces. Edge highlighting was really intimidating (still is) but it was really nice to see it explained in a supportive light. And the brush-edge tip was really good. Speaking of brushes, I'd like to see a video (if you haven't made it yet, I'm still going through your roster of content) explaining how to use and care for the tools of the trade. Like how exactly does a texture palette work, how to clean brushes beyond a rinse and dry, etc. I try to take care of my materials as best I can but it'd be nice to get something a bit more comprehensive.

[@lucidity1]

I'd love to see a video about how to pick a color scheme for your army. not just going into color theory. but also a how-to find inspiration and a guide on how specific details on the models can rally elevate your results if you consider them in this process. I had a hard time doing this for my Votan army but, I settled on Calador sky and standard mechanics grey as a base with screaming bell highlights as I painted the Hekaton land fortress.

[@YuriZahn]

Not to steal an idea for Byron but somebody once suggested looking at sports team colors. They often have a three-color theme.

[@insane944]

Love the video it is very informative on the highlighting The last highlight really made the exhaust vents stand out as if the light was reflecting on them One of the things I would love to see is brush husbandry I.e brush cleaning techniques and brush care It is not something you see much what soap should you use ectra

[@LorenzoDegliEsposti-k5e]

First of all, thank you a lot for this great video, as all your ones! My suggestion is you could make a video on your drybrushing style applied to miniatures with lots of small details of different colors close one to the other. How do you organize and plan your drybrushing steps? You can do all with a small drybrush, or you have to switch to a classic brush?

[@andydoran6272]

Hey. I’d like to see the process (order of things) you use for painting a whole squad/unit/army. Including bases and transfers. Thanks. Keep up the good work. Love it.

[@martinhansenandersen2341]

THANK YOU for this one (and so many others I have been binging) This kind of 3 Levels video - Level "Table ready", Level "Display Ready, and Level "Freak your friends out" was super helpful - And thank you for keeping mistakes and how you fix them in. With your insane dry brushing skills, I would LOVE to see a similar 3 or more levels video, on taking Slapchop to higher and higher levels. Doing better dry brushing, using stippling to fake airbrushing fades, etc. and as you did in this one, go all the way to adding edge highlighting. - Please, make us the ULTIMATE "Dominate Slapchop Levels Guide" 👍

[@ArtisOpus]

This is a great idea Martin, you might enjoy the next video we release, it's not exactly that, but it's taking our skele speed paint method and pushing it to tiptop max

[@spacewolf82]

I would like to see a video on making undead / decaying effects and rust really down and dirty painting. Thanks for all your videos

[@TRxSAndStorM]

Great tutorial! I have always edge highlighted stuff because that is how I was taught and my main armies have always seemed to have black as a main color scheme (Raven Guard) so it was just natural for me. As to the question of what I'd like to see next, and forgive me if it has been done already I am fairly new to the channel, is a tutorial on weathering. Whether that be pigments, sponging, or anything else I feel that weathering is an amazing tool to take your models to the next level.

[@PieroMolino]

The one thing I'd like to see more is about how to manage the dampness when doing drybrush. It's always either too chalky or too wet, cant seem to have figured out how to get to the sweet spot. I know you made many great videos on drybrushing, but one that addresses this specific aspect, with many example both on how to do it right and how to do it wrong, would be very valuable.

[@ChrisPurdy]

Really useful knowledge about how a brush will behave when edge highlighting with the side of it at 25:05 something I’d never thought about or appreciated. My suggestion for future videos is to continue sharing these gems like you always do! Fantastic stuff. Thank you!

[@craigcook5121]

Always great content. Love the fact you leave in the mistakes as it shows you make them as well. Would love to see a vid on how your brushes are made. Cheers

[@johnd1758]

Hey, Byron - I love your videos! You're miles better than me and yet you go at everything with such humility! I'd really like to see how one would handle drybrushing and drybrush stippling on models with lots of sharp pointy / sticky-out bits. I'm almost done putting together a team of Phobos Space Marines and there's a lot of antennaes and auspexes that I feel might really get in the way and I'm honestly terrified of getting started on painting them.

[@matthewoconnor3196]

Great video as always! Id love a video on basing your mini and making a mini-diorama

[@Event_Nihility]

This video is so insanely useful it's hard to fully express

[@hetfieldpapa]

What a fantastic tutorial on improved drybrushing - also appreciate the mostly real-time step-by-step guide with no jumpcuts! If there's a chance to do a tutorial on OSL without an airbrush (if it's even doable to an okay standard) that'd be amazing. Thank you, and keep up the amazing work!

[@ArtisOpus]

Check out our video from last month, we've got you, buddy! Thanks so much for the kind words

[@hetfieldpapa]

@@ArtisOpus Awesome, I will check it out!

[@snorana7657]

Suggestion: Help to choose your colors/scheme ? When I paint minis I often run into the question of, which color do I paint this brain, eye, pouch, base, (insert part to paint) in order to either make it pop or go with the rest without necessarily being the same color. Or how to choose highlight/midtones/base tones colors combinations. I remember it was touched on during the painting carapaces where you showed a color wheel for suggestions of the WOW factor color for the carapaces. I'd love a more in depth explanation of why some color combination look stunning while others feel like too much and a hot mess. Which would help a lot with overall scheme selection as well as giving coherency to a mini while still maintaining apparent complexity in colors. Would love a recap on saturation, vibrancy, brightness and the jargon that appear in many painting videos as well. Thanks for another amazing video! I love watching those longer formats, very relaxing and helps me a lot with my learning journey in the hobby! I resumed a year ago and super happy with my progression thanks to all the great ressources online :D

[@gobbotube]

I would absolutely love to see some funky color-blends, like green to orange or blue to pink, for some more magical minis. Lovely video thanks so much!

[@josephbradshaw2825]

Hey, I'd love to see how you would drybrush batch style, so like a 5 man squad. Which bits you would do first, what order etc etc.

[@darrenj3720]

Oh that hasn't been done in a while. At least not the same model. Good dea

[@111gnimmel]

The explanation and images for how water moves along the brush were helpful. More information on little technical details like that would be great to see in the future!

[@martinschelasin5071]

Would love to hear/see if there are any best practices to get value out of drybrushing and stippling even on models with extensive detail and trim. I play Thousand Sons and while I don't think there's necessarily any way of lessening the blow of the million hours of trim, I feel that most of the wow factor of the army comes from giving proper love to the non-trim parts of the armour. Would love to see how you would approach getting a pleasing end product while having to "fight" all the raised detail and trim.

[@Ciddy1980]

Higher level dry brushing is my go too since returning the the hobby and it's thanks to your videos that I'm able to do that, albeit still nowhere near your level but model by model I'm improving. I find that it give such a solid gaming level miniature. I also like to start by air brushing to get some early highlights in. My biggest issue is the control on pin point placement. Some times I get my PSI and paint mixture right and it's spot on, 30 mins later it's like I've never painted before.

[@magiccitymage203]

Congrats on reaching 100k! I'd love to see 'A Day in the Life' or a 'How to Make More Time for Your Hobby' type video! Byron seems like a busy fellow with a lot of irons in the fire, would love to know how you balance Element, Artis Opus, and whatever else you might be working on. Sincerely, thank you for all the great content. Literally taught me how to paint. So excited to see what y'all do next!

[@Steve-cs1bk]

Your tutorials has made my painting so much better thanks

[@vanessajgood]

I'd like to see more about how to weather while also using technical effects / textures. Thinking about things like flaking paint over rust with texture.

[@damskivitch]

Great video as always! Brush care I think is something that people might benefit from, I know I would! Cleaning a drybrush between colours, and sessions to make your brushes last as long as possible, and not have colours mix inside the brush. Love the tip to 'remember to breath' - if you're not holding your breath, are you really painting minis?!!

[@corkey2077]

This was the most nerve racking video I've seen in a long time, don't sell yourself short this is god level stuff. I would like to see your take on slapchop

[@richardpenswick9784]

Still just one of the best channels Ive seen online, the level of hints, tips and knowledge you share are amazing. Ive come across a few models with clear weapons and parts, Id love some advice on how to approach them if I should be approaching them differently or not. Ive avoided painting a fire giant completely as I just dont know what to do with the flaming clear sword. :D look forward to the next video

[@russ5838]

Would love to see you paint a squad of 5 minis just to see how you go about organising how you would paint one after the other to get a squad on the tabletop as fast as possible to a good standard, keep up the god work team.

[@rainman1200]

I always enjoy watching your videos, please keep making more! I haven’t come across videos that show how to finish up a model once the painting is complete. I’ve probably just not come seen them but usually the video ends with “now that it’s done, paint the base and you’re model is complete”, but for me it would be good to see how to finish a model once the last paint stroke has been made. Maybe, even show different options for finishes and the various products that are out there and how to use them to achieve what you want. Thanks!

[@honjin91]

Getting motivation to hobby. I'm pretty sure a lot of hobbyists have this issue from time to time, definitely myself included so I'd love to get some advice or tips on how to get out of a hobby slump. Any small/quick wins or palette cleansers to get you back into the swing of things. As always enjoying the content!

[@SnakeWorksStudio]

Love it! congrats on the 100k subscribers. truly deserved.

[@nevilovermann797]

I've just gotten back into the hobby after 20 years, and I have to say that channels like this are just amazing, and makes it so much more fun and accessible. As for suggestions: I'd love to see a video on 'the use of color', and how colors complement each other. There are so many default color schemes out there but I'd really love to come up with some of my own (particularly for my newly purchased Aeldari Combat patrol, as most of their color-schemes are kind of gross), but I just have no idea where to start. I have no jumping off point, if you know what I mean. Having an experienced miniatures painter talk me trough some key aspects would be amazingly useful. Thank you for the channel, and keep up the great work :)

[@l3lacky008]

Personally for me.. I'd love to suggest a video on how to pick colours that go together and such. With recommendations of the different colours that are basically the same. I tend to go for Box art, or follow specific colour schemes from tutorials, but I'd like to venture out into trying my own colour schemes or improvised ones. But I have no idea of which colours fit with which colours, and how to implement them to make a miniture stand out, instead of looking weird.

[@Fexen_minis]

I love this video, makes me re think my edge highlights completely! I would love to see a video explaining how to paint gem stones to a really high standard. Having the control to get consistent curved brush strokes to follow the shape of the gem that gets thinner and thinner as you get brighter on the highlight, or to give the gem stone a realistic depth.

[@prestonkeebler4258]

Gratz on the 100K! Still trying to drybrush as good as you, but your work on the Aeldari Flyer changed the way I look at big models. Thank you and keep up the good work!

[@Bachman2099]

Congrats on 100K! That is awesome. I'd really like to see a series on all the forms of free-hand artwork I've seen in Warhammer. Checker boards, banners, text, etc.

[@ninja_cazzle2641]

How to magically assemble and paint ALL THE MINIS (in my backlog - without having time to sit and paint) These are great videos Byron. Anything that hammers home the technique is great, as well as common pitfalls. I love seing different factions painted.

[@chipstercamarillo9373]

Since I found your channel I've gone back and improved on my drybrush combined with my airbrush which I'm loving. I have to admit I keep coming back to your videos and learning more and more. I tend to like metallic paints and would like to see something that would help with osl on high reflecting surfaces. Again and amazing video. The best part is how to fix the mistakes... keep it up

[@richardlynch77]

I'd love to see more like what you have here around the 25 minute mark - really details dscriptions and diagrams showing how paint and/or water flows off of the brush! This kind of detail is a game changer for me. Thanks for the video!

[@JeramyWare]

I would love more videos on large, flat surfaces like vehicles asks large creatures without a lot of texture to help you out. Do you edge highlight? Zenithal? How do you keep it smooth and with less visible brush strokes?

[@thorne7379]

Great tutorials! As somebody starting out I find your videos the most helpful, a video I’d like to see is one that gives advice on where to start on what techniques to practice before others in a building blocks or fundamental kind of way.

[@tracygroome6924]

I’d love to see a video on highlighting weapons! I’ve watched videos on NMM, but I’m not keen, and I haven’t seen anything on how to make true metallic metals look really awesome. Just about every model has a weapon, so it should help everyone. This video was really useful. I now need to just practice, practice, practice!

[@mcscruff3813]

Love your content always! I'd really like to see a video covering how to pick and use complimentary/contrasting colors on a mini without them being too glaring or overwhelming... If that makes any sense

[@SebastiaanPasterkamp]

Recently started with painting 40K models as a hobby to relax. This is the first video I've seen of your channel, and I've immediately subbed. After having seen quite a few "battle ready +" videos on Tyranids I'm struggling a bit to balance accessable techniques for me as a beginner and what looks good in demonstration videos. I would love a video on sort of a learning roadmap of techniques and paint types for beginners, and gradually build experience. Maybe even essential tools vs things to avoid early on...

I'd love to see a video on using pigment powders - KZbin painters never seen to use a pigment setter, they just dollop it on. Otherwise a video on using texture paints like the snow and ice ones on bases?

[@billco9006]

I would love to see a video on staying consistent for army painting between sessions. I really enjoy your video and learn loads!

[@pardoe17789]

I really enjoyed your videos working on getting armies ready for tournaments. Would love a video on breaking down time, efficient ways to pop the important models out from the others and just more of your thoughts on how to make an army looks cool and cohesive

[@thegremlin1999]

I'd love to see some big old monsters, using dry brushing/stippling. This channel has been a game changer to me in terms of painting. I've got so much better over a short period of time. And I've got some gribblies to paint so I'd love some pointers!

[@keysersozie3312]

love all your videos. at 25:43 there was blow up of a brush and you described how water flows through the brush, it's not something I have sat down and really thought about but I thought that bit was helpful. Also I really like the way the videos are edited with the emotes. keep up the good work. something I'd like to see is a quick high level tutorial of painting some skaven plague monk robes.

[@markkNL]

I'd love to see a video about time-efficient painting and what things to do or avoid, since I feel like I'm often spending way more time on a mini than what I see here or in other channels with way less detailed results. I often hear "you can do this in 5 minutes" and I'm like 20 minutes in and it looks nothing like it 😅.

[@TarantulaRookie]

Lovely in depth tutorial, way beyond my shaking arms :D Id love to see some varnish comparisons and ideas, whether its really needed or not, and the differences between matt, gloss and satin from either brushing on and or rattle cans etc. Something to protect the hard work if used in gaming regularly.

[@codybechberger]

I love all of the videos y'all do! They're always amazing! I would love to see more videos of the group working on non-GW stuff and/or trying to paint in different styles altogether!

[@vincentgames2560]

I would love to see a tutorial that focusses on trying to paint lots of models quickly using some of the techniques you showcase on the channel. One that distils a couple of key things that you can leverage/repeat and apply to an army to a reasonable standard but very quickly. The quality of painting is always amazing but it would be interesting to see how fast you can put out a box of models to a decent standard for people that don't have the time/want to spend a lot of time to get the same quality of finish that you achieve, but still want to have models they are happy to use. As an extra challenge it would be great to see multiple varied schemes in the same video as well.... Great work as always!

[@tombrand236]

Great video! I’d love to see more on chipping / damage / rust as well as more base ideas please Byron

[@mirobellini400]

This is super handy and fuels aspiration, thank you. As to a request, I’m not even sure how this idea would transfer to video tutorials, but I’d love to see your take on deciding on a colour scheme, and then applying it across an army of varied units.

[@andrewnewland3729]

I'd love to see a video on how you keep improving. What techniques do you use to try new things. I often get scared to try something new in a model I like in case I run it.

[@makrusnormendez357]

Thanks for the vid. I tend to just stop before edge highlighting. Will go back over some models with these tips

[@chriswiest3595]

It would be nice to see a video with tips, suggestions or techniques for hand stabilization to to help people with shaky, or trembling hands.

[@philmalkin7614]

great video, the tip about the water flow is something that never even occurred to me being a new miniature painter. More of the same sort of videos for me especially painting strategies on larger models. great stuff thanks.

[@Gravy_9]

Would be awesome to see you coach someone who would be a beginner painter live/time lapsed using your methods to a tapletop and show case level paint job!

[@GarredHATES]

God I love this channel. I leveled up so much since I’ve been subbed.

[@nemhod]

Another banger result. The edge highlight did make it pop more, but from a painting perspective makes more sense for your hero models. As for what I would like to see is one of two things. The first would be to see you use your painting style with oil paints, would love to see how you would work and develop that, and the other is just an experiment video on how to manipulate paint characteristics over different brands to get them to behave the best for drybrushing.

[@toni180]

I would like to see another NMM tutorial with drybrush. Maybe with more steps or examples. Also, I would like to see more of "How to paint" of different armies with more than 1 unit of each army and is a fast tabletop way so there is something like a tutorial to have an army painted fast with the techniques you use on your videos, which I really like. Thanks for your work, I really love it!

[@gamestar4761]

I am new to the hobby but I am loving it. I love dragons so I’m edging towards stormcasters I have watched you painting them I would love to see more on the blending of scales to skin on the dragons like from there soft under belly to there armour scales and there wings please never stop making these videos they are bringing so much to so many I have looked at the brushes but funds don’t allow them I’ve just watched your basing video to that was very informative and helpful.

[@barkli__]

I would really love to see more work from you using different brands of paints, ie. painting whole mini with your standard army-level process but using exclusively scale75 or valleho, etc. I think there are a lot of videos here on yt covering each and every technique, but no one really teaches us how to apply it with different paints, while because of nature of those different manufacturers, the result may vary.

[@AndyPooleCreative]

I'm just getting back into mini painting after a very long stint away, but I'm coming into it off the back of an art career where a lot of the theory and techniques are transferable. That said, I'm still going through that phase of self doubt and worry about the finished painting not being up to my own irrational and undeserved standards. This video however has been so informative, and such a great guide that it makes me feel that I could live up to that kind of standard that I want for myself. Not only that, but the work you've demonstrated looks great. The gradients are smooth, the highlights pop, the shades help contrast the red really well, and it was all very well informed. Cheers. As for what I'd like to see in the future? I think one or two things, one of which you mentioned first: how to maintain a level of fun and enjoyment during the process, and perhaps even how to overcome certain mental hurdles that can hinder you. Secondly: I think non-metallic metal has such a cool traditional style that it helps elevate models, especially characters, to greater levels of completion above metallic paints in some instances. So I'd love to see an in depth look at how you tackle NMM. Thanks, keep up the great work!

[@JamesIbbetson-c5v]

Excellent tutorial as usual. Thank you. I think a fun video could be on different contrast/base combinations with “exotic” color effects. For example yellow contrast over pink giving an orange/brown. Together with light pre-dry-brushing the approach gives some neat highlights/shading with easy steps. I’m guessing there are some other cool & surprising color combinations.

[@benbaker1283]

Really loving this latest series of videos, especially loved seeing the box art Eternus, learnt so much from that. I’d love to see a video where you translate some of the tips from this vid onto a “natural” surface, like flesh/skin. I’ve got some Ogroid Theridons I want to do in a pale blue and I’m looking for some inspiration. What I’m finding hard in conception is that it’s not really edge highlighting when it’s something natural so I find placement of highlights/shadows tricky without endlessly glazing.

[@jmc7034]

Well done on hitting 100k subs. Now to hit 200k 😉 Would love to see weathering on a wide variety of materials on small minis

[@clandorian]

Great video, thanks, really enjoy knowing about what the brush is doing so I can understand how to load it rather than just getting shown the paint consistency. I would love to see more on building shadows and for example how you control where the nuln oil goes without leaving water marks, especially in areas like the grills. But it also would be for using complementary colours to build the shadows as well as plain darkening.

[@whodovoodoowedo]

I'd like to see some vehicles or other large models drybrushed, maybe a Leman Russ or a Tau Battlesuit. Either way love the videos and they've really helped me improve over the last few months.

[@stujm84]

Great video Buron. Edge highlighting is definitely one of those things that you improve on the more you do jt, just have to remind ourselfs we don't have to donit on every surface like the GW pics! Id love to see a video on making seamless (and easy?) Blends between 2 or more colours, best/alternative techniques. I know you had done contrast paint examples, but maybe using standard acrylics?
