Hero Quest Painting Guide Ep.10 Dread Warriors

We're back! and continuing with our Hero Quest journey. Today we have the Dread Warriors. While these minis might be a big change from the original chaos warriors from classic hero quest, I'm gonna show you how to make them standout all the same. I might even show you how to paint something more ;)

All of em look great

[@CharlieO_]

That is a VERY nice paint job and I shall now steal it. Good day, suh.

[@notyourmothershobbies]

Haha, glad I could give you inspiration and a scheme to lay down ;p "Robinhood" away good sir.

[@ulfhednir9908]

Fantastic as all of your Painting Guides for HQ. For newbs like me it is fully understandable when you explain each step. Glad you always name the colour you are using.

[@fraserskomorowski2311]

Nicely done! Very simple, very accessible, great results!

[@Genoan01]

Nice to see you back!

[@AsianViking27]

Ayy glad you sorted your camera issues! Nice stuff here, lots of character in this scheme.

[@claudettemartin7701]

Glad you're back dude! 👍

[@lessthanpopi]

Welcome back man! Love the red variant!

[@erinweatherly6539]

Boom NMM easy mode!

[@1974Carnage]

Think my favourite was the red armour and green mace, but blue sword was good too.

[@plazma2891]

I think there the best painted dread warrior I have seen! on the red alt sculpt what is the recipe for that nice blue cape and shield? did you say in the video? I will watch it once more anyway lol

[@notyourmothershobbies]

Haha thank! It's been awhile but I think it was Aethermatic Blue with the white dry brush.

[@Sci_me7193]

Love the shading

[@Sci_me7193]

Welcome back!

[@PinkAwesome]

New camera looks even better! Glad yer back!

[@eazykiel9710]

trop bien peint, par contre le modele avec l'epee vient d'ou les mien on que des masses dans la boite, c'est du kitbashing?

[@notyourmothershobbies]

It was an alternate sculpt from the Pre-Order campaign in 2020. You can now get them in the expansions: Prophecy of Telor & Spirit Queen's Torment.

New to painting and new to heroquest here. Love all your videos but I’ll play devil’s advocate on this one and say this one did not nearly express your talents compared to the others. “My interpretation” of the card artwork is that the main warrior is suppose to be drab and dead looking. The “life” of this creature is clearly in that shield if you look at his card. Eyes, teeth, covered in blood. This creature is clearly a shield with a body that holds its awesome cape. Lol. Spend 90% of your time on the shield and cape, rest on the body and you’ll be happy with your work. 😂👍

[@notyourmothershobbies]

That's a sick idea haha wonderfully thought out!

[@jameskyle7943]

I think I would skip the zenithal in this case if I am just going to turn around and paint it black again.

[@notyourmothershobbies]

Fair enough :B A zenithal can help to identify details in the miniature, as well as shadows and highlights. Depending on the paints you're using or how thin they are, it can also add additional shadows and depth, even if it might seem like you're covering it all. That said, those things might not even be needed, and you can definitely get just as good as a look for these dread warriors by starting from black :) (and also save time! haha)
