These are easier if you paint the inside of the robe and the legs separately before gluing the legs at the waist.

[@TheApatheticFish]

Agree

[@gabrielet.6412]

@Margarito Palomaki only your other account gives a shit

[@ftferlo8868]

@@gabrielet.6412 where is her comment

[@vmurray100]

True you should do that with any hard to reach areas

[@zillatattoo]

you wanna paint miniatures and are looking for "easy" ?

[@bobuscesar2534]

I have to thank you for your great Tutorials. I mostly watch videos of you painting stuff I don't even own just to learn new Technics and paint combination for my armys.

[@TheApatheticFish]

Bobistdeinemuda I also paint models I don't collect to challenge myself :) it's fun. Thanks for the comment

[@bobuscesar2534]

TheApatheticFish Well I sometimes make crews of self made Charakters wish don't build an army. Like my Ork space raider or my Inquisitor with company. Also it's quite impressing how well you do with new models you didn't paint before.

[@JZStudios2]

Comparing to your manner of speaking before to now, I will say improved quite heavily. Do like that you're more energetic than before.

[@TheApatheticFish]

Yeah. when you start doing this for a while you kinda get the hang of it. I still have some stuttering and a bunch of ums and ahs but I'm trying. Thanks for the comment!

[@1KosovoJeSrbija1]

im planing on getting into 40k with skitarii rangers so this video is perfect!

[@OifelOifel]

I don't own any Warhammer 40k Miniatures but I really enjoy to watch your videos and how you paint.

[@bloodnivel70]

I was just watching some of your old videos in the morning Great video as always, cheers man

[@JohnR1298]

You missed a bit 😮 Just teasing 😊 That's a superb paint job. Thank you for a very interesting and inspiring video. I'm contemplating some of these guys and you've just pushed me in that direction a little further!

[@RichardHaywardMelbourne]

Thanks I appreciated your thorough approach to this model. I also enjoyed the music.

[@kettusnuhveli]

Rly clean and smooth finish! Love your tutorials

[@commissarstanley2524]

Thanks for the videos bud,I love them,and they basically taught me how to paint

[@sriv1965sriv]

Great video! I'm about to paint my first Skitarii Kill Team and this helped tremendously. I'm now a subscriber!

[@leeroyrousseau]

Very cool. I have been tempted by some of the mechanicum models on forgeworld when I have ordered my thousand sons. SO many cool sculpts.

[@TheApatheticFish]

You should! They're pretty dope!

[@captainkarnage9874]

I know I'm late to comment but thanks These are the first models for me to paint, and this was a well done guide

[@virogue007]

Great video of a great paint job! Well done and thanks for sharing!

[@Blubmuh2]

Thank you for another great tutorial, can't wait to see the next one.

[@Nightbanekaizer]

This makes me think if I get any models for the first time maybe I should consider a Mechanicus army. They are an interesting faction.

[@usernameusersurname5945]

Thanks a lot for this video, enjoyed it very much. Are you going to paint more Adeptus Mechanicus? I want you to paint infiltrators or tech priest dominus in Ryza and Stygies VIII Forge worlds

[@shawnmccuen6908]

Great video Brother. I just got kill team. I'll start painting these boys Friday.

[@MrRockhound24]

Really great job. All thumbs up....

[@ryanrandolph1395]

Your tutorials are the best! Could you please do one on how to paint eldar swooping hawks?

[@janczaplinski658]

Finally Skitarii. Good job.

[@jamesmartinez1246]

I'm new to Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 and I'm looking to get into both so that way I can have play ability and be able to create different characters and have more knowledge of things can you paint an assembled pieces of characters such as the Warriors staying here these Mini figures with an airbrush or would that be ill-advised to paint them with an airbrush I'll talk to you about for the model not so much the little stands like if you have some areas that you want to get done quickly is airbrushing a nice way to paint them or is it in inefficient way to paint them

[@hyaground]

Very nice - I would like to ‘copy’ your scheme for my new army but don’t want it to look exactly the same - I would like the robe to be a burnt orange but I’m worried it would clash with the gold too much...can you please recommend colour replacements? Thanks 🙏

[@MegaLdragoDestroy]

Please paint some more infinity models too if possible ^^ nice vid!

[@asizablelad7517]

You could use zandri dust but in spray form to base the inner cloak

[@mroscar7]

Should I build them separately then paint them, or construct the model to completion and paint them.

[@FrostandFists]

Great tutorial, my man! I love how your Admech came out! Keep up the awesome, bud! ~ Wolfbrother Methos

[@tadhgconroy8828]

This was a great tutorial but I found the red too bright so instead I shaded the red with nuln oil and highlights with mephiston

[@Darksky1001able]

"You Skitarii have taken care of your gear. You will be front of the assault." *Skitarii dies in 5 seconds*

[@xavierdoe2452]

A bit late to the party like usual, but for the robes/feet, I would just leave them black. I call it natural shading and no one is going to pick up the models and say 'oh look, you didn't paint here, it looks bad'. Also when you're painting 40-50 rangers/vanguards you soon stop caring, lol.

[@AndyIngram-Tedd]

Great video!!!😊

[@IDICBeer]

Great tutorial my friend

[@splat-1485]

O cool I want to paint it like that -sees the amount of paint that is required- Maybe not 😅

[@oOBlueBubbleOo]

Please paint the B. Putrifier from the Death Guards. Please - Please - Please

[@biscuitfeatures0810]

Great thanks mate

[@Potaterminator]

I love characters with hoods, gas masks or sniper rifles. It looks so cool and aesthetic. Too bad i don't have the money since third world countries like mine suck with their currencies and even if i had a chance to buy this, i wouldn't have any way to paint it without fucking it up.

[@TheApatheticFish]

eray lülecioglu where are you from? I definitely understand. I started doing these videos to see if I could get money to buy more models.

[@Potaterminator]

TheApatheticFish I'm from Turkey. Ya know, the country where the government blocked youtube because of certain videos that are about politic views on the president.

[@EpsilonBurerund]

how long does it take you to do a model like this?

[@awaik100]

Thanks for another great video. How do you choose what model to paint? Can I send you one that you haven't done a video on?

[@TheApatheticFish]

You can contact me on Facebook DM and ask. I accept models for videos sometimes. Just let me know

[@kirisu3983]

12:10 "I think this looks good" Yes...very...

[@hunteriv945]

How is so beautiful im french and i love you're job

[@TheApatheticFish]

[@hunteriv945]

[@ahanlon9315]

Could someone give me a list of all the paints and washes he used please! :)

[@Dekarowski25]

They look so cool. Much cooler than the alpha units. Too bad that they are suppose to be brainless/non able to think for themselfs 😅

[@WilliamKuby]

[@Scortch-lo3xy]
