Really love the way you implement contrast and especially in this case use them more as washes! Keep it up :) Nice to see someone else is also leaning heavily on contrast for shading metal. Will definetly try your recipe for silver and gold.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

I already have a Chaos Warrior, check it out

[@Strill_]

Is there any way we can see your palette and water cup to see how you load your brush and get that exact paint consistency? If I were to try feathering like you do, the paint would already be dry before I lift off the brush.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

You need a bigger brush essentially, also and this can be a bit frustrating, the weather is VERY important for feathering sadly. If your local weather is dry or hot it will be significantly more difficult if even possible at all without using retarder

[@Zolerous]

Amazing thank you for this 👍🏼

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Happy to help 😘

[@Zolerous]

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures clear, easy to follow and it looks exactly how I want mine to 😊 can I ask, which sizes would you recommend from the Rosemary 33 series?

[@Zolerous]

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures long or short handle?

[@sluki6190]

I got a size 3 brush from Rosemary &co - omg its so much easier to paint now!

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

I KNOW RIGHT?! Once you learn how to control a large brush, nothing beats it.

[@idiotproofdalek]

The wick and point are bang on

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

And so much cheaper than other brands, it's amazing how good a brush it is

[@guillaumetastet3171]

Genius

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

I know 😘

[@web4life837]

This look amazing! But I feel sick and uneasy just watching while thinking about attempting something this indepth for a full army, therefore I could not watch till the end lol.

[@HadronFlux]

If possible could you recommend if you were to do a Sacrosanct model/unit where they have the robes and such, what color would you would do them? It seems that if you do blue, beyond spending more time in that problematic color, they would look quite a bit like a Hammers of Sigmar model with just a bit of silver poking out where you see the random leg or something. If you think you'd just stick with the color that should not be named, its ok, I understand. :)

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

If I would do Sacrosanct I would probably paint the robes the same dark red/burgundy on the outside with the insides in blue.

[@tombrand236]

Great video as always. May I ask what varnish you would recommend when using true metallic paints without an airbrush? I find the GW varnish can mutes it, but is Ardcoat any good? Thanks

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

For display I never use varnish. For armies I use Munitorium all over. Yes it mutes them down, but it's a good compromise varnish for me.

[@tombrand236]

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures thanks that’s really interesting to hear! All my pieces are display as I don’t play…but I have been a bit disappointed sometimes my work feels like it is hindered by a varnish. Especially on my custodes. I will try leaving natural next time

[@gsxrdave1974]

what brushes and sizes are you using please the tips on them look amazingly sharp and pointed ???

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Rosemary and co series 33 size 3, that's basically the brush I use for everything

[@finnbehrmann3620]

Might you tell me why you go for Kantor/Templeguard instead of Alaitoc for the blue base? Whats the difference to your last SE? Could also use Alaitoc and if I did, should I use the Leviadon in another ratio to the Medium? Thanks

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

It's just to present another option, I don't like to repeat recipes if I can avoid it. You ca use Alaitoc and then the same mix of Leviadon in here and get almost to the same place

[@finnbehrmann3620]

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures Makes sense, thanks for your answer! Love your recipes but got to say it can sadly not quite follow them 100%: Your brush control is simply out of this world. What Brushes do you use in this with this fine tip? :)

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Rosemary and Co Series 33 size 3. That's basically the only brush I use

[@Noir_Raven]

Great video! You might have just provided me with a nice recipe for Grey Knight armour. Thanks :)

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Happy to help 😘

[@deusvult333]

I am trying to make a green knight cavalry unit. I am using this tutorial to make the green-ish armor. Can't find this online, so I am asking you: Are there any other green (or blue as well ) contrast paints that are transparent as the Gryph-Charger grey? Or should I just choose the green I like and mix some contrast medium to it to make it like a glaze?

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

I would use Warp Lighting mixed with contrast medium as a Gryph Charger alternative

[@geofffoden9245]

Seems to paint finer with a size 7 than I could with a 00

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Its a size 3 actually and it's all about learning to paint with just the very tip. The top of a size 00 and a size 3 is the same, it takes a while to get used to it but it's well worth it

[@sinthas_]

As you know I watch all your videos and this one set's a higher bar once more. Great work !!! The metallics are amazing .... nearly sad now that I am going for Hammers of Sigmar with mine. I think I will test there to work with Cryptek Armor Shade and Contrast Medium for the deep recesses to give them a more grim feeling compared to my Sacrosanct Chamber. Maybe I can work in something on the metallic stuff you showed of here on the chainmail and weapons. Intersting that you went for a different black highlights with grey again :D I am not exactly sure that the highlight color for the red leather fit's perfectly. Looks a little bit like wax .... but that's only to critic something for once :P ;) The intro was a really nice touch. Made me laugh my ass off :) Please show of the basing you did at some point. Want to copy it 1:1 shamelessly. Sending over some love to you and your family

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Thanks! As for the basing, you can see how I do it in the How to Base - Basing Paste video. The rocks are just corax - Agaros: Basilicanum 1:2 - Drybrush of deepkin Flesh

[@Carlos-os5pn]

Those bluish-silver and blue armour recipes are sooo good! I'm saving those. Great job, Juan! Btw, out of curiosity, what did you use to paint the stones on the base? Thanks!
