I am in the process of my first batch of night goblin stabbas and I've fallen in love with these little guys. I've never played any version of Warhammer but have always been a collector of various different goblins for use in D&D , these guys have probably took the Pathfinder Goblins position of my favorites now. I doubt I ever go to these lengths with my painting, hell I use cheap craft paint from hobby lobby and make my own washes but the important part is I'm not embarrassed by my paint jobs and I have a wonderful time doing it! I never realized how relaxing and therapeutic it can be to sit down for a couple hours a day and just paint. As a plus my little nephew and niece have discovered a love of dragons recently so I painted them both a dragon , I can't wait for them to get them in the mail!

[@Smilomaniac]

Great video, I can't fault anything you did or said. The scheme looks great (love the purple), the care you took shows and the result is way more than tabletop ready. - On the topic of yellow and airbrushes, I have my own story: I'm painting my marines in an orange and dark grey scheme. 1. Prime light grey and basecoat with a carbon/dark grey color (airbrush). 2. Paint chest, knees, feet, head, elbows, hands, shoulder rims, part of the power pack in a mix of gold yellow and orange fire (vallejo). Takes anywhere from 5 to 10 thin layers of orange. 3. Paint additional details like boltgun for guns, bright gold for emblems/aquila, blue for ropes/capse/cables and much more (well over 10 different colors, several hand mixed) 4. Glue the subassemblies (chest/legs + plus arms/guns + shoulders + head + power pack + pinning on base) 5. Wash orange and gold with seraphim sepia, some nuln oil on details, some aggrax earthshade for dirt effects. 6. Cry because I've done just over 40 models, but still have 15 marines, well over 40 primaris and 5 vehicles (2 rhinos, repulsor, land raider, imperial knight and a baneblade) Once I've finished this army, I will never paint yellow/orange on a dark base again. I don't know what I was thinking. My problem is that I don't own and currently can't afford the airbrush, so a friend of mine does it when he occasionally has time. If I were to do this again, I'd simply airbrush the entire model orange and then hand paint the grey. It's a lot harder to fix mistakes this way, but it can be mitigated by doing thin layers (four instead of the 5-10 orange ones). I will say this though; My effort shows and there won't be anyone else stupid enough to match my army colors.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Step 2 painting orange over gray sounds brutal! I've made that mistake before. Have you tried using an intermediate color on top of the gray? There are some yellowish colors that actually have good coverage. Averland sunset, desert yellow, ochre yellow, those might go on well in 1-2 coats and then ~2 coats of orange on top of that might do the trick. But yeah, in the future make sure to prime in a color that jives with orange (white or tan) or borrow your friend's arbrush :-) Do you have any pictures of your marines posted somewhere? I'd love to see them!

[@Smilomaniac]

@@GoobertownHobbies - Thanks for answering, that's some very nice advice. If I base coat with my flash gitz I can probably get away with not mixing the orange layer and just paint it straight on. I'll try that. Here's a quick and dirty album: imgur.com/a/efTHkrW

[@GoobertownHobbies]

@@Smilomaniac Nice! that color combo works really well. All that work got a nice orange out. I can't remember if I've ever used flash gitz or not- does it have decent coverage? Obviously theres a big range of transparencies in the yellow-orange range.

I love this compliment :-) Bob Ross videos have recently started showing up on my suggested videos. The KZbin algorithm has read your comment hehehe.

[@zifnow]

What's very helpful, as I get from the video, is your method. I used to do 3-4 minis at the same time, finish them, and then start another 4. I took time to finish 20-40 minis, and I got tired since you have to repeat tasks, and start over, repeat.. Then I changed my approach: I prepare them and I start making the same step for ALL of them. This is incredibly better, once you finish a process you don't have to repeat it and it's very motivationg, like you finished a quest. And go to the next one. I started 20 GW orcs (for KOW army) 4 days ago, and I am close to finish them. Once I'd have take much more time to have them ready. Thanks for the inspiration!

Great plan. The skin wash with ink over yellow is really what makes them look heavily "hand painted". Good idea.

[@clawhammr666]

Not gonna lie, first thinking 'ok, this should be interesting' and then 'I started by airbrushing' for me is kind of sigh, since most people don't have that. On the painting itself, its very cool to see it on camera mass painting all this and just hard not to be inspired by the organisation especially, great having like what was it 6 or 8 painting handles and how you lined them all up and well should be obvious I guess thinking back on it with organizing the colour scheme before hand so you should usually know where you are at and excellent job of what you said at the end, having a list of paintlist/order and crossing it out is an ingenious idea since like mentioned, i'm guessing it's quite satisfying to cross out. Fantastic job! will definitely use this for finish painting troops and oof, repainting most of my orks.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

I'm glad there were some useful ideas in here for you! I know I learned a ton from doing this project. Taking the time to get organized is definitely worth it. I thought about painting these without an airbrush at all for the exact reason you mentioned. The results would have been pretty similar if I had just started by spray priming everything yellow or even brush primer --> brush yellow paint. Brush painting yellow still terrifies me though :-) Have fun with those orks!

[@joegekko]

There's nothing done here with the airbrush that couldn't be easily done with a rattlecan- you'd just have to do it outside.

[@clawhammr666]

@@GoobertownHobbies @Joe Gekko Yeah I was gonna throw that in actually with the coloured spray cans, but forgot

[@nickkohlmann]

@@joegekko with these temperatures, I will have to wait for months until I can start painting again... hate it.

[@Jackaljkljkl]

So long as you just use it for basecoating (i.e. not accurate detailed airbrushing), you can get a cheap Chinese airbrush and compressor for, like, $50-$100 on eBay.

[@MrLowgaz]

Great video! I have 60x Empire Halberdiers to paint. Really needed the inspiration! *subscribed*

Welcome aboard! Are you gonna do those 60 halberdiers all at once? You can do it!

[@slimjim7411]

I used to run table edge to table edge night goblins with fanatics. When AoS came out I just shelved them. On occasion I can bait somebody into a WHFB game, and watch the madness as fanatics go whirling around everywhere.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Oh hey! I played fantasy when I was a much younger man, my favorite part of the game was when the bretonians got too close to my grots, then the fanatics came out! And if the fanatics missed, surely the pump wagon would pick up the slack... well... hopefully :-)

[@slimjim7411]

@@GoobertownHobbies Yup the game honestly had some balance issues like 40K, and AoS still do. However Night Goblins between fanatics, pump wagons, giants falling over, and or sticking things down their pants, and trolls barfing on people it was fun...even though it generally lost. It always seemed to lose in spectacular ways.

[@cfeduke]

I like the time breakdown. Congratulations on finishing so many models, and at a great tabletop quality level! I haven't yet done the pre-plan. I guess I sort of do, I tackle a small part of a unit, usually 10 models and record the paint and steps I make on an index card as I do it. Then the next time I paint that unit type again, I refer to the index card and tackle 30 or so models at once. I am going to try the pre-plan approach with my Plaguebearers. I've found the Vallejo Game Color Extra Opaque paint line helps a ton with base coating, especially when batch painting.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Oooh, I'll have to look into that Vallejo extra opaque line. Getting a color done on a single pass would have massively helped on the purple and browns. I've considered grabbing GWs base coats for that reason, but I just hate the GW bottles so much. Vallejo though.... yes... Nice habit writing down your recipes. I wish I had gotten into that a long time ago!

[@cfeduke]

GW used to have a line called Foundation Paints which were single coat bases. The GW base coats are okay, but the Vallejo extra opaque is more like GW's old Foundation line. There's also a line Creature Caster carries that appears to function like extra opaque due to pigment density - going to be ordering that soon. (The Vallejo extra opaques are mostly muted/dark shades - this improves their effectiveness. The Creature Caster carried line appears to contain many bright colors.)

[@GoobertownHobbies]

@@cfeduke Thanks for the tip! One of those lines might just be my next purchase.
