Normally i hate their red plastic toy guns but you made it work so well

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks man

[@Jukebox1000x]

Thanks Feral, this looks great and definitely my favourite of the DA schemes! Thanks for sharing mate!

[@TheFeralPainter]

My pleasure!

[@chevkoch]

Stellar work, looks really neat.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks bro

[@willogsdon7092]

This may be my favorite style of painting for the dark angels

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks so much!!!

[@grimdarkly]

YES. I've been waiting for a scheme like this. 10/10... have a lion el'jonson ive been sitting here in majestic gray plastic waiting for the right scheme and I think this is it!

[@TheFeralPainter]

I do have a lion el jojnson coming soon. 👌🏻👌🏻

[@grimdarkly]

@@TheFeralPainter love to hear that!!

[@bretticus6722]

Always thought these helms look a little off on the Death Wing Terminators they come with but on the Pimaris bodies they look Perfect! Brilliant Idea Mate❤

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks man! And yes work great’

[@dassashr00m58]

What helmet (with the hood) is this and how do you get the tabard thingy ??

[@cyan1166]

Man, just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I'm absolutely thrilled. Your tips have transformed my painting in the exact direction I wanted. Your style of grimdark but still crisp is just what I hope to accomplish one day. Thank you for the detailed explanations in your videos!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Welcome aboard! Honestly means so much! Thanks a bunch

[@CurtisBuilds]

Amazing job buddy, this scheme is chefs kiss! Fantastic video as always

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks a ton!

[@ESO-ONE]

Your channel is killing it. Well done man very inspirational.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks so much brother x

[@tabletoppdx]

Love that base dip too!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks there great

[@Chulpichochos]

I've been so hooked on your Dark Angels videos that I just joined my first ever KZbin channel/subscribed to a Patreon today just to watch this video. So hyped for this new recipe!

[@NoUseForAName06]

Looks good! I am having a hard time enjoying painting marines recently. Maybe adding some grimdark will bring the fun back. Small tip for using Krautcover that I only learned recently: Don't shake the box to mix it. The bigger stones will rise to the top that way. Rather open the box and use a small spatula to "mix" it by lifting elements from the bottom to the top and vice versa.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thats great! Thanks for tip! I love there stuff

[@Krautcover-bv4ts]

Awesome Video! Many many years ago till my 40k time, Imperial Fists and Dark Angles were my Chapters of Choice! Amazing Paintjob on your Fellars here! And many thanks to show Krautcover here to the people with your work! Cheers Tobias

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks for sharing! Thanks so much for the amazing products also 👌🏻👌🏻

[@Joe40k]

That color scheme is spot on man & I really think it just screams Dark Angels. Very well done.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Cheers

[@alrethianscraftsbattles]

Love it! These look fantastic man.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Glad you like them!

[@Anbu1138]

Your eye for color and building color schemes is amazing. Love your videos. Thank you

[@TheFeralPainter]

Glad you like them!

[@speaktome4778]

Great tips overall. I'm not playing DA but it goes a long way with helping to speed up my grimdark painting. Just brilliant. Thank you!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Glad it helped!

The right tone in gold mixes seamlessly with the green. Well done Again

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks man

[@TodayNot]

Wow such unique yet recognizable DAs

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks

[@treymartinez7398]

My man I love the fact you suggested alternate paints to achieve the same effect being new to the hobby and effectively have only been exposed to gw and army painter I apreciate this apreciate your videos and the details you provided looking forward to more video

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanls means alot

[@froghugger41]

Luv your videos, mate, your eye for tone, colour, and texture is such a treat.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks a ton!

[@oOComatoseOo]

Thanks for this awesome tutorial! You just inspired me to do a dark angels kill team! I will try this color scheme and combine it with tovarions stippling method!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Enjoy brother

[@user-tj9jy8re7u]

Awesome color scheme, will definitely try it out on my plastic dudes :) Thanks for sharing

[@TheFeralPainter]

Have fun!

[@joeydimeo2265]

The helmets with the hood looks so good

[@TheFeralPainter]

Absolutely ❤️👌🏻

[@pumellhorne]

That's a gorgeous looking model 🙌

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks so much!!

[@Rasmus.Elnegaard]

I keep coming back to these dark angels videos, as your colour choices are so good! I would love to see your take on the deathwing colour scheme 😁

[@TheFeralPainter]

Check out my channel i have 3 videos on them 👌🏻

[@Rasmus.Elnegaard]

@@TheFeralPainter wow, i completely overhovedet those. Will watch!

[@WD4wg]

Awesome man, I'm with you on that armour colour. Looks sick.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Appreciate it!

[@rowanirish]

Saved to Watch Later as I'm at work. I paint Iron Hands myself, but a cool DA scheme if I ever need to paint some up. Cheers.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Cheers bro

[@ThrehaneMiniatures]

Your most recent video about comments seems to have disappeared right as I was leaving a comment. Here it is: I consume ALL KINDS of miniature painting content, and what I've noticed is that content centered around Warhammer and/or grim dark style seem to get the harshest comments. Is it "gatekeeping"? I don't see that type of comment in the purely art type painting (not for gaming), or painting board game miniatures videos. I'm not into Warhammer, and I don't paint in the grim dark style, but I still very much enjoy watching your videos. Keep it up!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks so so much for the kind words dude! ✌🏼👌🏻

[@jostonpowell1346]

Love your content bro, keep doing what ya do \m/ Finally overcame my depression after 8 years roughly. Started taking Welbutrin and working out again as well as doing Keto.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Awesome stuff man!!! Well done! Keep at it! If u ever need to reach out on insta please do. My regular job is a mental health practitioner 👌🏻👌🏻

[@ShinXyres]

Unreal video as always. I really prefer my Dark Angels to be closer to their 30k style versus their newer more green focused scheme. This looks like a great middle ground and I'll have to give it a try.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks so much

[@derekdagostino6078]

Amazing work TFP.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks bro

[@soverain]

Can’t wait for the Inner Circle Companions video!

[@TheFeralPainter]

This weekend hopefully

[@soverain]

@@TheFeralPainter man that would be awesome. I have a squad of 6 blade guard with hoods that I want to paint in the Inner Circle scheme, but so far I haven’t find the perfect green/black.

[@broodicus1]

Amazing work love it!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thabks so much

[@dungeonden1617]

Absolutely Awesome!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thank you kindly!

[@Helghast73]

Nice one, this is more like it and so much better imo than the crazy GW scheme they've done them in. I was going to do them in the old school / 30k colour scheme 😂

[@TheFeralPainter]

Cool, thanks!

[@leekendrick6015]

Definitely prefer this scheme over the British racing green angels when I was 9 😂

[@TheFeralPainter]

😂😂👌🏻

[@TheNecrock]

Love your videos ❤ Would ever consider doing a librarian in the future? Or even a librarian in a terminator armor 😅

[@TheFeralPainter]

Eventually

[@thelonepainter4760]

Awesome job!👍🏽

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@TheMichaellathrop]

So your lighting simulated a zenithal prime, which is a painting technique meant to simulate certain forms of lighting...

[@Swordsnstuff]

oh no... Now I need to buy some more space marines...

[@TheFeralPainter]

😂

[@stevo_hobbies]

I was a little iffy on this to begin with, but it turned out fantastic! Great tips!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Rasmus.Elnegaard]

Theend result is absolutely amazing, no doubt about that! But calling it army painting is a big stretch in my opinion. Which is sad cause i would love to end with something similar. I will check out the other videos you mentioned, but would also love if you tried to achieve something similar, vut strip it down to as few steps as possible and no airbrush.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks. As mentioned in the video. This is how to take army painting up a notch and to the next level. I do also provide alternative methods in the video that dont require an airbrush. My aim with this channel is always to push people and get them painting in differnt ways rather than just basics. And hopefully elevate them in there painting journey. There are many many channels out there that teach basic stripped back methods, however i feel my aim is to get u pushing beyond that. Thanks for hour feedback and i hope you are able to take techniques from some of my videos and apply them in differnt ways to projects. Thanks a bunch again 👌🏻👌🏻 stay well and happy hobbying

[@Rasmus.Elnegaard]

@@TheFeralPainter fair enough. I just really like the scheme and would love to see a stripped down version, as I am very new in the hobby and thus nowhere near this level.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Hopefully u can take somthing in the future to push your painting! Welcome to The hobby and i wish u all the best and happy painting! Im sure yourl enjoy your journey into this world. But i doubt the wallet will enjoy 😂🙈. O often think being an addict would be cheaper

[@DesWCEN]

Where is the "handle" from that you have the mini on? It looks really useful

[@TheFeralPainter]

Rathcore handle element games

[@GrapeHate]

So no Streaking Grime? Wow!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Nope

[@elibarker201]

This looks awesome! Ive got a bunch of Black Templars I need to paint and want to do them in a grimdark style. My problem with most grimdark black armor is it always is a black blob and is hard to read. What sort of steps would you take to get there? Alternatively a video on the subject would be iconic!

[@TheFeralPainter]

I have some black coming soon 👌🏻

[@elibarker201]

@@TheFeralPainter Thanks you the best!

[@kacpermakosa3304]

TBH that Dark Angels armor look more like dark Sons of Horus armor instead of new Dark Angel ones.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Yes that was the plan 😂👌🏻 i hate the standard style

[@NotoriousVIN]

This looks awesome. Nice job! Definitely going to use it on my dark angels. Can you link me to the specific box this came from please I can’t find it. (I’m very new to warhammer)

[@TheFeralPainter]

Its the veterains mixed with da upgrade sprew

[@NotoriousVIN]

@@TheFeralPainter thank you. I’ll look that up 🙌🏻

[@user-oh2qe4kg9u]

Love it !!!!!

[@oscarsaris3183]

Quick question if you'll still reply! Where did you get that tabarded body from? I love the Dark Angels aesthetic, but their regular Primaris marines look like just regular Primaris marines. A tabarded body suits them so much better.

[@TheFeralPainter]

This was from the veteran squad set. I just used some dark angel hooded heads.

[@acrilk]

I try to avoid airbrushes as often as I can, only really leaning on them for vehicles because it just saves so much time. You mentioned that for those of us who prefer using brushes that we could get by and actually get a more "battle damaged" look in the process, anything special you'd recommend for going down that route? Or just the standard topdown approach? I like your color scheme way too much to not try it, but i'm definitely going to try and drybrush my way through it.

[@TheFeralPainter]

If u check out my blood angels or ultramarine video. I show how u to do it with stipple method

[@acrilk]

@@TheFeralPainter Good lookin' out. Thanks for the scheme idea, looking forward to trying it out.

[@KuPaoChicken]

Hey dude, I wanted to say I've been doing DA Chapter 1 year this month and have watched so many different ways to paint DAs. I've imagined hours of just wondering how to paint DAs. Anyway in all of that..., this is really one of the coolest looking, most original ways of seeing an artist paint dark angels I've come across. I don't have an air brush. I have a Revalon makeup one, which I've seen used to effect, but otherwise I'm all dry brushing. I don't have Horus paints. Are the colors listed here? Egg green? Acryl Gold? Anyway rambling great video!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Hay man massive thanks for the kind words. I mention all paints listed in the video. However i cannot remember off the top of my head. If u watch the base layers/green parts i mention the colours, theres about 3/4

[@Shizuka0490]

when you sprayed the black with an airbrush can i do the same by applying a thin coat of black with a brush aswell or how would you do that step otherwise

[@TheFeralPainter]

Yep you can do that as well

[@ericvandenberg4682]

I’d like to paint my army in this style. I’ve already primed about half my army in the white over black zenith style. I’m concerned about how it will affect the paint. I like the bluish turquoise. Do you think I’ll lose that?

[@TheFeralPainter]

You can always reprime them. It wont hurt ☺️

[@RawrJustJames]

It there an alternative to Pro Acryl Bronze? I've tried to get this and the Decayed Metallic by Scale 75 and it constantly out of stock everywhere I look - Would be good if anyone knew of an alternative?

[@TheFeralPainter]

I herd green stuff world Metallic Paint GLADIUS BRONZE is very similar

[@oscarsaris3183]

Yeah okay 10/10 video once again, straight banger. I absolutely love your Dark Angels color scheme and techniques as always. One question though: you mention the layers on the cloth but I’m not exactly sure how to apply them in layers like you do. Mine come out way differently. Could you elaborate?

[@TheFeralPainter]

Sure u just thin your paints more than usual and apply smally ammount on brush. Working them up layer by layer. Adding small ammount of the highlights eqch time 👌🏻 hope that helps

[@oscarsaris3183]

@@TheFeralPainterthanks! And one more question: where did you get that hooded head?

[@TheFeralPainter]

New upgrade sprew for dark angels 👌🏻

[@Lady_Numiria]

I love your way of painting gold. Since Pro acryl are unfindable around here, would you mind sharing a good equivalent in either Scale75 or AK range please? Thanks.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Ak rusty gold

[@RemnasOne]

Looks incredible! Been painting salamanders for some time now but not quite happy with my gold metallics... how do you like the gold here vs the scale 75 decayed metal you used the biologus video? Cheers!

There both very similar in coulor

Hey anyone got an Idea where the lower Part is from?

[@TheFeralPainter]

Hi this is the stergaurd veterain squad box set. All i added was part from the dark angels upgrade kit.

[@LonewolfTales]

I noticed the painting handle you are using. May I ask what´s the name of the product, looks like a Rathcore? I use the redgrass one, but it´s kinda annoying that the putty for it is so hard to get and sometimes minis don´t stick to it very well. Looking for a new handle. Can you recommend it? ;) And how do you fix the mini on the cork? Alex - Lonewolf Tales-

hey mate, what aerograph you using ? i bought one, but doesnt seem as precise as yours ....

[@TheFeralPainter]

Mines a harder and Steinbeck ultra 2024. Its all practice, u can spray like me but just takes practice

[@KaratePath]

@@TheFeralPainter and do you use medium on the cytadel color air? for example lupercal green, i tried without medium, but it was getting stuck sometimes, so i had to put some mdium, even if its air (which i thought, should be airbrush ready, no mediums)...

[@TheFeralPainter]

Just watch some how to airbrush videos, they explain alot in them and yourl learn more

[@KaratePath]

@@TheFeralPainter man why are you so patronicing ? i asked an specific question about cytadel air, if you used medium or not, no need for you to send me somewhere else. Feel free not to answer if you dont want to, but you are being too condescending, and i appreciate you would not. (if i know already about mediums and im brushing, i already saw some vids, but not specifically about Cytadel Air colors being "airbrush ready"). For example, i just found your airbrush, and it has a better nozzle than the one im using, so it may explain why my lupercal green gets stuck sometimes.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Because u always ask me stupid questions that can easily be found on google. Yes citadel air paints are airbrush formulated. Like anything u put in a airbrush it requires thinning.

[@Erikjust]

Any chance you could do power weapons (axes swords etc etc)? Is there a way to do them grim dark?
