How to Paint: Snikrot the Ork! (excuse my sore throat)

This video looks at how to paint the Ork special character, Snikrot, which Games Workshop sent to me as an early review copy. The model is painted to a high tabletop standard and Contrast paints are used heavily.
April Fools! :D This was my wife and she wanted to have some fun doing a voice over. The video with my voice will be released later today.

"If I ever make a mistake, which I never do because I'm Richard Gray..." - great impromptu by wife. Well done by her!

[@beetle5000]

You nailed it Rebecca, all the little idiosyncrasies that Richard does was a great touch 😂

[@timothyjoyce6376]

Richard Gray has gone all asmr with his wife's voice. And his vocal mannerisms have been completely nailed. Keep giggling at the little sighs

[@RedHandedDaniel]

this is such a treat. i hope you'll do another like this in the coming april.

[@daemonrebecca]

I will have to convince Richard!

[@todders559]

So sorry for your sore throat, Richard. You sound fantastic.

[@FOB777]

Richard’s wife nailed the sighing and mannerisms! Lol! Excellent work

[@battspaints]

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one! I like that you put the extra effort to mimic some of the little frustrated pauses that Rich does 😂

[@daemonrebecca]

I am glad someone noticed!

[@SLICK-GLN]

also the mouth breathing thing

[@daemonrebecca]

@@SLICK-GLN ah nah that's probably me to be fair.

[@matsingen3477]

Lol! i paused the video and rushed to the comments to see if anyone else noticed XD this was incredible attention to detail. Keep it up!

[@daemonrebecca]

@@matsingen3477 the forgetting the paints was unintentional, though - as he'd forgotten the paints on the original he sent me, so I hadn't much choice 🤣

[@JonBius]

I don't use this word often, but that was absolutely delightful to hear! Quite warm and funny. And I almost shot coffee through my nose at the "because I'm Richard Gray" lines. That was GOLD. Well done to both of you! Thank you Rebecca for doing that!

[@daemonrebecca]

Thank you! It was really too fun to do, although very hard towards the end. I don't know how Richard does it! :)

[@MrDave13193]

I was giggling all the way though this. All the little pauses, emms and ahhs, and forgetting paint names. Perfection! Absoultey nailed it, Rebecca!

[@slang7905]

this is amazing hahah it matches his actual explaination so much its great. We need more hahah

[@LeonhMiniatures]

This is GOLD! I can feel her pain at a times, and absolute love her quotes!! "....because I'm Richard Grey" 😂😂 Well done!

[@ZzokK]

i will need a rebecca version of all your tutorials please, such a nice voice!

[@Wheezr]

i love how she can emulate your many recording idiosyncrasies

[@TheNeoanomally]

Rebecca, it was an absolute treat to hear you capture Richard’s idiosyncrasies. And all your own personal touches. Great job narrating. Thank you, Richard for another fantastic video painting session

[@Bunyip_Studios]

Your wife should do the voice overs more often! Most pleasant to listen to

[@jostonpowell1346]

She does have a lovely voice for this type of video

[@themighty1995]

I dunno. If it wasn't for Richards sighs and his little hesitations, his cool commentary style would have definitely been more appropriate for these kind of videos.

[@Ajax-wo3gt]

@@themighty1995 Sultry female voice trumps male voice every time. Especially if the listener is a thirsty male.

[@adamduncombe594]

I can’t stop chuckling at this. Brilliant 😂

[@carlstanford7607]

Great job Rebecca! Jokes, a pitch perfect Richard impression and an awesome video to boot. Model looks amazing too

[@Convincing_Reality]

Hearing your wife stifling a laugh after the second "I am Richard Gray" made me need to pause the video for a minute 😂 But seriously, this was thoroughly informative and entertaining!

[@ADosSantos92]

You're fantastic Rebecca Gray 🤣

[@daemonrebecca]

Oh thank you Alexandre. What a lovely thing to say 🤣

[@TheTricksterLukas]

Most soothing to listen to....... nearly as pleasant as the shipping forecast or the afternoon play on BBC Radio 4

[@brandonburton260]

I really enjoyed listening to Rebecca, great mimicry as well!

[@chrisreilly6061]

I feel like Nigella has just taken up miniature painting. This is incredible

[@ruddychung479]

This is very soothing. This can be a whole new venture.

[@ShutUpWesley]

Ohhhh. Should have watched this the first of april. For a moment my head🤯😵‍💫

[@demonrich]

Yes, it makes more sense on the day 😂

[@koravikmeesilpavikkai7399]

it's strangely soothing.

[@sebastienb9434]

A big surprise,love,love,love...thanks for all!😂

[@R0CKFUCKR0LL]

This is a double whammy. Great tutorial and ASMR at the same time hahaha. Very relaxing voice

[@Blanchskotsu]

haha this was way funnier than it should of been, well done Mrs Gray, even the tut and correct yourself... golden #xD

[@Snikt-gc3ec]

Brilliant voiceover, very soothing, excellent tutorial!

[@RhonanDirz]

Your wife has a beautiful voice that lends itself well to voice-over work. Good job!

[@daemonrebecca]

Thank you

[@basilbean5085]

Very enjoyable indeed and Mrs Rebecca is a very amusing bonus!! Is just me and my silly mind.....I just can't Katie Hopkins out of my head!!😹👍😹 Earned a new sub!!

[@forrestegan]

Awesome! I’m new to the channel and this was my first video…then I went to start watching the Beast Boss video and WOW did you nail it. You should narrated ALL the videos! 😘

[@daemonrebecca]

I would love to do more! 🥰

[@richardmarriott-smith9517]

Thanks for this excellent video. I have lots of goblin and orc minis to paint so I’ll try using the techniques you demonstrate here. Thank you.

[@TheMiniatureDoctor]

You do the mannerisms so well, i nearly forgot it wasn't Rich after a while! :)

[@tombrand236]

This cracked me up! Had all your little verbal nuances down to a tee. Jokes

[@zazen69]

Part 2 on KZbin please, we all will watch! The narration was excellent.

[@daemonrebecca]

Richard says he might let me do part two! I think I'll do less Richard impressions, though 🥰

[@FlamerFingers]

You should get a sore throat more often!

[@018music018]

Hahahahahahaa this is amazing, great impression, could barely tell the difference, even the argument for nmm lol

[@rankcolour8780]

This is amazing on multiple levels.

[@harrij.9542]

Glad you have a new website for tutorials. Patreon UI is so bad.

[@muswetyl]

I didn't noticed any difference! 😅 Perfectly executed! ...and there is Snikrot - nice! 🤩

[@marcolai9735]

Fantastic Rebecca ! Hop to get some more of this … maybe even a combo voiceover :)

[@MrTrenttness]

🔥🎸🔥 This is an amazing looking work. I think it's the best looking take on this particular model by far.

[@stepan.tichyy]

Rebecca, you are fantastic! :D

[@Nallenbot]

Hilarious. I'm 100% here for Rebecca ASMR voiceovers :D

I've never tried, although you are not the first to say! I wouldn't know where to start :)

It'll certainly be done! I've got a massive backlog of marines to get through, but they're all planned.

I’m going to have to buy an ork after this. What’s a good character to try, other than this and Ghazkull? Ps Rebecca what a great voice you have 😂

[@Bunyip_Studios]

forgot to ask, have you tried the Vallejo Xpress Colors yet? They appear to give good results going from the videos I've seen so far

Didn’t read title. Let’s say I was very confused for a moment xD

Almost like the same person painted them 🤯
