EASILY Paint World Eaters Eightbound - Warhammer 40K

[@TVforyourCats]

Excellent vid as usual. I’m loving the new world eater units and can’t wait to pick some up for myself.

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thanks, much appreciated! The new models are great. If I could do something different, I’d leave the armour off while painting. It was a pain to get in at the neck.

This is a fantastic video. I've just gotten back into 40k after taking a long break after battle fleet gothic first came out because of life then did scale modeling for a while and seeing how much has changed especially techniques I feel a little lost and like I'm learning all over again and videos like this that are simple and descriptive are so useful. Thanks and blood for the blood god

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thanks very much, I’m really glad you liked it! Welcome back to the hobby. A lot has changed, but it’s still just the basics: take your time and be neat and tidy and anything will look great. Good luck on your journey!

[@brocksamson37]

This is just perfect😮😮😮😮

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thanks very much! I was trying to get a good mix of decent looking and quick.

[@aarondaviescoaching]

Amazing tutorial love it. Just ordered two boxes and I’ll be following your instructions. Thank you 🙏

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thanks very much for the kind words! Good luck with your guys, they’re a lot of fun to paint.

How you are getting these quality results so quickly with a completely mangled split tip brush blows my mind! Great Video and great tutorial! I really appreciate the 360 shot of the final result, I hate it when I'm watching a painting video and don't get to see the money shot at the end! :D

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thanks! Yeah, a few of my brushes are almost done, so I tend to use them for metallics. As long as one bit of it points in the right direction I can manage! I've been wanting to improve the final reveal. What would you like to see in addition to the 360? Your ideal shot?

[@BSJDynasty]

@@TheHalfDoneHobbyist I think the 360 shot perfectly fine as a closer!

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thanks, much appreciated.

I’ve been painting for a cool couple of months and I like it but I hate making mistakes. I bought some oil paints to try blending better but I’ve been too scared to try them so far. 😂. Thank you for the awesome video!

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

I'm glad you're enjoying it! My best advice would be to give it a go and make some mistakes, nothing is permanent and can always (almost always!) be rescued. Thanks for the kind words!

Great video Simon - Hopefully this will help someone get over that initial fear and get picking up a brush! Really liked the inclusion of paint cards and alternative recommendations. I still feel AK Intense Black is the black-to-end-all-blacks but we'll agree to disagree on that!

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thanks James, i'd just feel bad if people couldn't embark on a cool project through fear. You and I know how great it is to paint something you're proud of. I just like Black Legion because it covers so well and I don't have to thin it. Pure laziness!

[@TheLastRoman0000]

Looks good.

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thanks!

[@wpeaston]

Bit late to this, but great video, so approachable!

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thank you, that’s great to hear! I’m really glad you enjoyed it.

[@TronsTableTop]

Looks incredible Simon. Great job! Will you do a showcase of the rest?

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Thanks very much! I will certainly do a showcase when they're all done. Angron next!

[@TronsTableTop]

@@TheHalfDoneHobbyist oooooo. Will you show how you painted angron? Not necessarily a tutorial but how you approached?

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Absolutely, it’ll be a bit different, more like a comparison between how I approached it and how my friend did his.

[@TronsTableTop]

@@TheHalfDoneHobbyist that sounds very good.

[@Zolluns]

would be ok if I use vallejo grey primer?

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

If it’s light enough, yes. Sorry, I don’t know the Vallejo primers. White or bone works the best as the Contrast paints show up really well on them. If the grey is too dark they’ll just look a bit muddy.

[@noprobllama9747]

The hardest part of painting Eightbound is finding the models to buy 😂

[@TheHalfDoneHobbyist]

Ah, I didn’t realise they were scarce. A bit like the Lion yesterday!
