Grimdark Miniature Painting Using the Zorn Palette | Warhammer 40k Chaos Cultists

Rather than paint in my usual vibrant, high-contrast style, I do some experimenting with grimdark painting techniques and the acclaimed Zorn Palette!
This is the first of many videos, and the editing will be improved. Promise

This was a really great video! Well constructed and explained, nice footage and editing, Interesting subject matter. Impressive. Good job on the models and setting yourself the challenge, they came out great. Just the inspiration and workflow example I was looking for, for my cities of Sigmar excelsis colour scheme 💪👌

[@MadhouseMinis]

Hey thanks a ton! And man, that Cities of Sigmar range is making AoS look pretty enticing...

[@cokedupgirlscout]

You’ve got great hands.

I moisturize daily

[@stefpaints7148]

Really cool results, it's good to break out of your comfort zone sometimes. Zorn is something I've been meaning to try too

[@MadhouseMinis]

It was honestly surprisingly quick since I wasn't as worried about highlighting to infinity

[@alazgor14]

Bad ass painting!

[@MadhouseMinis]

"Unfortunately, I waited until after the price hike to pick them up. But that's on me." No, that's on Games Workshop for hiking the price. This recent round of inflation is mostly price-gouging motivated on an economy wide scale, rather than anything to do with real cost increases. See also the massive shift of wealth from common people to the rich and corporations. One of my favorite miniatures companies, Wargames Atlantic, was very open that their production costs would only increase by a few cents per kit. So they decided NOT to price gouge. Showing that it's not a matter of need that GW increased prices, but greed.

Anyway, good use of Zorn. Also, creative way to work with gaps in the model, incorporating them into the design. Me, personally, I just never bother trying to hide the seams.

[@MadhouseMinis]

I usually don't either, but if you're gonna post something on the internet someone is going to point out your gaps, mold lines, and undrilled barrels 🤷

I kitbashed the title character to have a powerfist

[@onkelgroen]

Good content, but bad audio levels. The music is way too loud, I don't want to have to turn it up when I need to listen to painting tips, then down when the music kicks in. 2 cents.

[@MadhouseMinis]

Noted 👍 my current editing software is trash and doesn't replay at the actual volume so I'm working on it! Edit: which song specifically?

[@onkelgroen]

@@MadhouseMinis Oh, I didn't pay much attention to the songs... I was working on a mini, and wanted to hear your commentary, but had to turn it up and down a few times. Especially in the middle part of the video, if I remember correctly. Edit: the music that starts at around 7 and 8:50 was very loud, specifically. Background was fine.
