I'm loving the Kill Team format. A handful of reasonably-sized models to assemble and paint makes for a nicely sized project. You can do a fun scheme and not worry about then having to do the same thing to another several thousand points of models.

[@adamssmartthings]

Exactly. Underworlds is even more this.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Second step of my journey into Kill Team! I had a bunch of fun with this warband and I'm having a bunch of fun with this series in general, so (working around official release date/embargo) expect to see the new Orks soon 😁and I'm thinking... Inquisition?!? 😉

[@BaneofBalor]

If you ever get a chance, I'd love to see some sisters of battle painted like this at some point! I can't quite seem to settle on a black armour formula that balances speed and style like you manage in these videos.

[@timo4422]

The moment when the alcool drop falls in the pot of metalic paint looks like magic lol. Alchemy time ! 😅

[@garysmithson9707]

Your use of oils to create such deep contrast on these models is amazing Marco. 👏

[@ralex3697]

Marco is on another level. So talented

[@Gogsnik]

Normally, these videos seem like magic to me but with this one, perhaps because I've watched so many, or because I've finally used my airbrush and dome some painting with it, I can finally see the speed and simplicitly of these techniques, maybe even enough to give it a go myself! Wow, I had a moment there when it felt like remembering a dream and it just popped in my mind how this actually all works, haha :D

[@sstinger0137]

I've been experimenting with a style very similar to this on my own without really knowing why or what colors to pic. Just going with what looks good. I've really enjoyed you're description of why we should pick things. It'll certainly help with my confidence in choosing colors as I progress. I think I'll also finally take the plunge into oil washes. Thank you for sharing!

[@jorgemontero6384]

I am glad to see a light oil application of a dark wash: Because yes, the light greens are always asking for clear edges and readable grooves and imperfections. You just manage to get a better effect than I do in 1/4th of the time.

[@uruk_bye1232]

You never make a video I only watch just once. I get to suck the marrow out of your work and pass it off as my own genius. I love it.

[@icrofts]

I watch them multiple times too 😂

[@mamlaka227]

Your approach to miniature painting is truly above all others 👏 I really like how you think about color progression through a story and a journey in the wheel rather than by complementarity. Besides, for this kind of chromatic progression, wouldn't it be more interesting to use a kind of "color sphere" rather than a wheel? I think it's already used in 3D modeling (LAB). Like a ball with the hues in longitudes and the brightness in longitude, and we "draw roads" to choose our color scheme ^^

[@pez5767]

Thank you for your awesome and thoughtful videos. I don't think anyone else makes painting videos that are even nearly as effective at teaching and explaining theory as your videos.

[@NavarreOnline]

That vibrant green looks incredible.

[@jons_jumble]

Thank you for showing the metallic contrast paints you mixed up. It looks like it flows beautifully and gives nice coverage. I'm filing this one away to use in the future.

[@timcalderhead]

Loving the effect the Iso has on the mixture when it drops in 👌 great work as ever Marco!

[@Wijkert]

Very interesting order of alternating between brush and airbrush. Very clearly explained as well. Although to get the most of of videos like these, I have to watch them multiple times. Which is totally fine; they are worth it!

[@Prometheus_Williams]

This is very impressive. Your work is wonderful.

[@trentoncarr]

Always a pleasure coming here to learn.

[@coreyburge8663]

Love your video Marco! May I ask what colors you used to establish that base color?

[@davidmoss5424]

Marco, that's insanely good. 'Nuff said.

[@chicagohobbyhero]

Thanks a million man!!!!

[@larry84903]

Your videos are always so informative Marco, I love your painting style and I've learnt so much from watch you.

[@MeasAgun]

Stunning!!! Love from France 💜💜💜

[@draadhaai]

Amazing work again Marco! I really like these small regiment/warband like videos, because that's usually what we tend to paint. Most armies consist of a couple of characters and the rest is then "just" troops. But you made very clear again that with some proper preparation even those units will look great. Also: I used the idea for your home-made metallic on my own miniatures, using only vallejo glaze medium as the additive. Works like a charm with 1 coat. Long gone are the days of 4 layers of metallics :D .

[@bartek_ewertowski]

These are my favourite videos that you make. Always great inspiration!

[@macoosh2]

Awesome as usual :) learned the oils-acrylics combo from your videos and it really upped "my game"

[@alexhastings5413]

Are you thinning these Molotow paints at the beginning? You said you are using these at 2bar, is that equivalent to 20psi? I have a 0.28 nozzle on my airbrush Absolutely in love wih the initial base coat of those initial colours

[@diyfireking]

Great work. such talent and skill 😊😊

[@marcinstangel9277]

Absolutely love your videos and tutorials Marco !

[@derekgarcia3069]

Amazing work as always! Full of inspiration!!

[@Amberpawn]

Watching the video, I'm really thinking about doing a similar initial progression but moving in the opposite direction after the base coat to turqoise working towards flourescent pink rather than the flourescent green for some Emperor's Children.

[@Vertrucio]

Insightful as always! I'll probably use similar techniques for my Orcs.

[@tombrand236]

This scheme is so good. Amazing

[@zaqtehattaq]

An amazing paint video!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

[@mrphucyoo8281]

Just watched your old video on easy oil painting for beginers type of thing and now my mind is set on giving it a go! You mentioned a channel to look at,was it Dan something or other? I found James Wappel and i see now why you say its such a great way to do our figures but its million miles from acrylics!. Thanks for taking the time to show us these skills,we would probably go to our graves still base layer and highlighting if we didnt have you guys out there!!

[@savethezombies]

Love these minis and the job you did on them. My issue with the qtips on these particular minis was all the little hairs that got stuck on all the little details. They looked like they needed a shave when I was done.

That artwork is very Frank Frazetta in the best way with how it made all the colors work together into a harmonious whole. THIS is your idea of "Speed Painting"?! Yikes. But oh, does it look great! I always learn from watching your videos, Signore!

[@humaktsixtysix3409]

Stunning result as usual, Marco! So inspiring! I have done 100% of my painting clumsily and humbly using your workflow since I saw your first videos using oils over acrylics! it was such a revolution. Quick question if you allow me: what are the main reasons to switch back to acrylics for the final definition and texturing stages, rather than staying with oils? Is it because it is advantageous to have a quick drying medium to superpose the layers of texture and you do not want to wait for oil layers to dry? I would have thought that in army painting mode, it would work too...

[@ryankempey2746]

These are absolutely stunning. I would love to know how long it took to complete the squad.

[@SirSith]

Any chance for an episode about mixing metallics from pigments? How to select and mix them properly for different types of golds and metals?

Excellent 👌

[@matejkuselj5881]

just amazing! Tho when I use inks with contrast/speedpaints, the inks always reactivates and I always use gentle strokes... especially when using a blue speedpaint over a yellow ink, it turn out green :)

[@kayprins6779]

Thank you! would you list the ingredients of your metallic speed paint again (not quantities but, just the list)

[@diragoni411]

Do you have a video showing the recipe you used for your metals in more detail? Would it apply to other paints in the same way?

[@wolf-xf6hf]

3:30 love the video but out of curiosity why do you spray at 3 bar when most painters spray at less than 2 and how do you spray so close to the mini’s like you do without spiderwebbing when the pressure is so high and you are so close to the models?

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

High pressure generates a super high, laser focused precision if you can tame it with a good control on the trigger and staying close!😉 Low pressure gives you an illusion of control, but it generates a bunch of overspray

[@wolf-xf6hf]

@ dang I didnt know that. I’d love to see a video on specifically how you spray at high pressures ngl

[@trekbrooker2692]

I love how vibrant the colours turned out. What do you use to turn the oil paints into washes?

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Thanks!!! It's simple white spirit from the hardware store 😉

[@SpampInk]

Ciao Marco you’re super cool and your tips are always really useful, I have just a question, in this project how long did you wait before remove oil washes? Thanks ❤

[@patknez]

Thanks for this one Marco. Really like the workflow on this one. In my house in winter we have terrible ventilation. Would a very thinned out acrylic diluted with alcohol work for the oil wash step if you were much more controlled with it due to the lack of clean up? again really great video.

[@miguelbenedict4063]

Marco! I love your content, you have inspired me to try to incorporate oils in my workflow where before they just scared me. I do have one question, I know you let the figure sit overnight after cleaning but how long do you normally let the oils sit before engaging in the cleaning step?

[@johnymiller7245]

Yes ! I do have a question : do you also encompass the nurgling painting process on your Patreon Video ?

Bellissimo lavoro come sempre, Marco. Una domanda, pensi ci sia modo di ottenere un risultato "simile" a quello inizialmente fatto a mezzo aerografo, tramite pennello? Magari sfruttando un drybrush localizzato?

All my tricks are coming from years of commission painting! Just start and the workflow will appear by itself ;)

[@Easy_Mode_Minis]

@@MarcoFrisoniNJM I wish you did online lessons or a syllabus :)

[@ogrokun]

Marco, how long do you wait for the white ink to dry before putting a wash over it? I find it that ink re-activates to easily when you paint over it. Also, how long do you wait until removing excess oil wash with the q-tip?

[@EVISCERATECHUCK]

I like your work and your personality. Nice channel, subbed

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Welcome on board!!!

[@bastianniemand7460]

Awesome

[@LordSquee]

Do Molotow paints need any different cleaning from the airbrush or is it just the same process as any regular paint?

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

They are just water based acrylics! Super tough when dry, but not problematic at all while still fluid

[@zazen69]

Great work! Why Gouches at the end instead of regular acrylic paint?

[@TheOneIng]

I guess that he's after the improved opacity

[@GoblinsLoft]

With the ISO+Medium ... does it need-need to be that medium, and. how long do you leave the prior layers to dry to avoid the ISO damaging it?

[@MrElliptific]

Marco, could you have a go at Historical Napoleonic figures? I'd be most curious to see if your fantastic work could be translated to another genre.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

That could be a super interesting challenge!

[@MrPoppysoabm]

Marco, why do you use the liquitex gouache. I have looked through your videos and I must have missed why you use them

[@fedesiempre]

last time i mixed my duraluminium with liquitex inks it separated while drying giving me an uneven finish, did i add too much ink?

[@francoispainchaudtremblay8562]

Where can i find that specific kill team

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

@@francoispainchaudtremblay8562 It's in the Killteam starter set with the Space Marines squad!

[@furbasswillst4273]

Hi Marco, thanks for the amazing videos. I have tried some of your techniques and I am generally happy with the results. There is just one problem: When I clean the oil-stage I often wipe away some of the previous colours, even with gentle strokes. I use Lucas Studio oils and citrus turpentine. Can this be the problem or am I doing something else wrong?

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Hi! Thanks a million!!! It's definitely the turpentine 😉 even the citrus based one is more aggressive than white spirit on acrylics

[@RyanSultana]

you mentioned the horizontal texture of the bones in the artwork but did not incorporate it in your painting ?

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

It's there, but very subtle! The armours turned out super busy, so I kept the bones a bit more "clean", but I'll definitely use that sharp effect on other stuff!

[@marcofraioli992]

hi Marco, i have some problem with the oil washes, i finish the acrilic layer and i let it dry also for a day or 2, then i start to do the oil washes, i let dry a 20/25 minutes and then i start the cleaning process but every time the q-tips or the sponge took away also part of the acrilic color under the oil....why? ç.ò

[@willmontes85]

Absolutely beautiful. Is this really "speed painting" though? Airbrush, multiple layers everywhere, oils washes, added highlights.. all beautiful but I wouldn't qualify this as a speedpaint even if you did use a couple of speedpaints within the process a couple of times.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

There are different levels of speed painting for different levels of painters. There's also display/competition level speed painting! This is about maximising efficiency for intermediate and advanced painters that can handle more and more complex techniques and want more than just a layer of Contrast paint over white, still wanting to play with their cool models as quickly as possible. I call it "high quality speed painting" for a reason😉!

[@matttozzi9540]

I'm confused, doesn't alcohol strip acrylic paint? How did Marco mix it with paint and have it only break up the metallic paint? Is it because he used such a small amount?

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Alcohol is an efficient solvent/thinner, but not that strong, especially in this small quantity ;)

[@matttozzi9540]

@MarcoFrisoniNJM thanks! Any concerns about the durability of those areas long term?

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Not at all! There's a lot of alcohol also in airbrush thinner and a bit in most paints! It evaporates in seconds without leaving artifacts or any kind or weakness

[@matttozzi9540]

@@MarcoFrisoniNJM interesting thanks I never knew that!

[@malkcontent]

You’re the painter that most inspires me to paint. However I can’t understand why your airbrushed molotows don’t melt under contrast paints like mine does. I’ve had to stop using them because of this.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Shake them!!! Shake them like crazy and for a while!!! Otherwise you work only with the super pigmented "dirty water" on top that doesn't have the same adhesion properties ;)

[@malkcontent]

@@MarcoFrisoniNJMthank you !! I will try that

[@malkcontent]

@ and how long do you leave to dry

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Standard acrylic timing, so a matter of seconds! Try also working with just one gentle pass of Contrast moving the brush in a single direction; this way you reduce the physical stress over the thin layer of paint and when you have that filter in place is basically like having a layer of varnish over everything

[@bartlomiejkozak9221]

One hour per model...

[@cameronfotheringham6659]

These videos are so saturated with info, they take multiple watches.

[@mcth0ny]

Do you vanish before the oil phase? I find that the spirits often pull paint off when I do this. Am I not letting it dry long enough?
