Great tutorial. More of this kind of content, please.

[@4lc4p0rn]

in some of their set boxes, there's a little pamphlet with 50% adds for more products, and 50% picture tutorials and a qr code to a video version. its honestly awesome.

[@TimLewallen]

Agreed, this was the perfect combination of detail and brevity.

That rust trick is probably one of my favorite tricks 👌

[@MarketResearchReading114]

I know necrons are a great example for your metallics speed paint, but I was curious if you could show how it works on tubing and I think for that Admech models would do well as an example. I'd love to see you try and play with an blackened oily admech scheme maybe with a white for the cloth! Maybe the tubing could be a fringe benefit of getting to show off how your whites and blacks can couple with other base coat types?

[@LarryDarkMite2]

I absolutely LOVE the AP primers. They go on so evenly and the range of colors give such great contrast!

[@Mark-sz5rh]

THIS! This right here is what I was looking for with Army Painter Speed Paints (2.0 especially). Though I am going for a cleaner look that really helps learn about the rusting effects. (Now, if I get just get any of my local hobby shops to carry the individual 2.0 speed paints, I'll be set -- sigh).

[@travisskane5459]

Nice tips, even for people that aren't painting the models shown in the video.

[@MateuszAdamczyk]

I would like to see a tutorial on moving from Speedpaints tabletop ready to award-winning display level of paint job ;).

[@DataBait]

Every time I watch your videos I learn something new. I feel like I have a better understanding now of how to use the paints I have on hand. Thank you!

[@WatchItPaintIt]

Looks fantastic Thomas! 😁

[@j.taylor7361]

I love that you guys do these videos! And I really love the alternative paint schemes and their recipes at the end of the video. Please consider doing similar videos for other 40K armies!

[@WildcatOn3]

Just got into kill team with Hierotek Circle. Can't wait to paint my first necrons using speedpaint 2.0!

[@patrickwilliams492]

Wow, What a difference. Wish I had know these techniques and had these paints when painting my Necrons. Will definitlely start using for my new SM Army.

[@the13th]

Amazing finished product especially for something so simple

[@jergoodman1987]

All the recent videos have been 🔥 nice and easy to follow tutorial. Great alternate breakdown at the end too.

[@JoeHardacre]

Definitely would like to see more of this!

[@patimusprime72]

Nice video and great looking Necrons. I've really been enjoying those metallic speed paints.

[@brian_sh699]

I would be happy to see the Army Painter team tackle some rubric marines!

[@TheArmyPainter]

There's be nothing to tackle, upon impact it would just be a cloud of dust...

[@OrcPainterNerd]

Superb tutorial! Rusty necrons look so good.

[@chewmba42]

Love the highlight and glow tips for the orbs n stuff gonna use that in my next paint job

[@MandrewWolf]

whaaa that Speedpaint makes the Necrons look mental love the tutorial and see the power that Speedpaint can have

[@GlowingGrace]

Love speedpaints, you can really see the magic here

[@eastcoastgaming8652]

Love this kind of content! Keep it up!

[@Tigerradde]

Awsome to get such a nice result with these techniques!

[@jimart3230]

This is a great tutorial, the bit at the end with same techniques but different paints is really good. I get that it's extra work but it massively multiplies the value of the video.

[@mahari7285]

Thank you for this awesome tutorial! ❤ I chose option 2 to paint my Necrons in a rusty/ rotten style and they look fantastic...like they had just risen from a flooded tomb and walk through swampy terrain...!

[@jamesteaney4550]

Keep up the momentum guys, these types of videos are very helpful

[@TheBeardedAdmiral]

I was wondering earlier today if I could use P. Silver as a highlight for some current projects, many thanks for the unintentional confirmation! 👍

[@kmykz]

This is as speedpaint as it can get, very fast!

[@CalmPlains]

Almost half way to 100k! Keep it up!

[@federicoblascotorruella9022]

my miniatures look great for my standards with speedpaints! love them

[@Sun_Catcher_Prints]

Awesome tutorial, I am wanting to get into speed paints. Please keep making these types of videos so I can understand how to effectively use speed paints!

[@OrganizedCrisis]

That green looks great!

[@obokanVEVO]

Great video! Absolutely in love with the warrior at 5:01

[@thewisp7447]

Fast, easy, and still good looking!

[@vickestr794]

Great video, quick easy and a nice paint result.

[@MaxsonAtTheFort]

Would love to see a tutorial on how to paint Vior’la Tau, I’ve tried many different types of videos but still haven’t quite found that white armor look I’m looking for.

[@daddyyu-gi-oh4330]

Top notch tutorial. Incredible work and loved that you showed a few different schemes at the end too

[@jamiebauer7868]

Nice trick! Definitely going to steal it

[@enxangura5263]

[@PeninsulaPaintingProjects]

Really enjoyed this! More of this please

[@robertobassatt3141]

Another Great tutorial thank you been enjoying using the starter set.

[@sandpirate1662]

Gonna have to try out that rust!

[@chrishorne5855]

Very cool some really nice effects 🇦🇺👍🏻

[@charlesfox4449]

can't wait till the local store get the metallic speed paints in

[@hyosworld109]

I need to get some necrons, they are the ultimate speed paintable miniatures lol

[@TheVasgal]

This is and excellent content for new and old painters. Thanks for the tips ❤

[@stevelegear6630]

Air paint tip is interesting must give it a shot

[@TheReignboy]

Great looking guide, there also a nice way to show how your paints work and which ones to pick. I'd personally love to see which paints you'd recommend for 40k orks and also for Orruks :D

[@alexanderlichter1469]

This was great! I think I'll paint my wife's Necrons similar to this.

[@andrehas82]

Great tutorial!

[@renaudroyer5390]

Thanks for this great tutorial 👍

[@chrisbritt4302]

Looks great

[@Joe_Wiltshire]

Good stuff, gotta get me some rusty Necrons 👍

[@olivermauser8667]

Sehr schön. Muss ich gleich ausprobieren 👍

[@johndavid2290]

Army Painter continues to be gamers first businessmen third. Thank you. Hope you roll 20s/6s

[@davidlankester]

I’m going to try this out on some scrap builds and get back to you

[@brunodubois8245]

Awesome simple tips and tricks !! Could you paint Zombicide Marvel Zombies pleaase 😉 ?

[@justinhadlow4168]

Useful tutorial

[@sludgedisciple]

Thats a fantastic tutorial. Thank you!

[@tomaszpokora7538]

man, this looks so cool and looks very simple. If I would start my necrons I would go this way. I don't think if this would work on already painted and washed with basilicanum grey necrons

[@TheArmyPainter]

You would likely want to strip the paint off and start from a fresh basecoat if you wanted to try this technique on them.

[@PunchieCwg]

This was great, thanks guys!

[@chrishorne5855]

Very nicely done 🇦🇺👍🏻

[@Autarch-Chang]

great tutorial!! could you do obe for the nihelak dynasty as well?? or even better all the other major dynastys?? would love to see your scills on tackling the dynastys

[@vinnygallino5217]

Best paint ever

[@andysdestination8671]

Sweet! I’ll try these. 😎😎😎🔥🔥🔥

[@mandyd9681]

I didnt know that Rust worked better mixed with water, but now I need to test it out

[@necromaticwolf]

I have a question. Wouldn't using the metal spray primer be even faster than using the metallic speed paint? If so, does using the speed paint create a different effect? If so, what is it? I hope to hear back, love yalls stuff. So many options.

[@sussy_6998]

Great tutorial, would like to see something similar for a grim darky World Eaters with the range 🙏🙏

[@j.taylor7361]

Great video!

[@lucasreehten5577]

Nice tutorial, pls more :)

[@dwardy]

Hi guys great tutorial

[@Zombina597]

that necron lord really look nice and ready to kick some eldar butts after a good cup of coffee lol

[@dingus3725]

Pretty cool

[@livetiggereden7309]

Fantastic tutorial 🎉 I would love to see some 🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️🧟 Since I have just about ALL zombicide boxes to date (except Invader), that needs to be painted 😮🙈😭🙏🏻

[@BaerNDice]

Great Tutorioal!

[@Rasmus.Elnegaard]

Just watched this for the fourth time, and it's still is great! Especially the glowing orbs! But I just realized that Thomas did not paint the overlords blade to be glowing, why is that? Does it not work with this technique? How would you do it? I feel it is just as important as the orbs. Edit: for spellling

[@donniem7979]

I have a weird question: Are y'all gonna release another version of the blood technical paint?

[@blackehartrc395]

for the paints at 4:56 are they basecoating with desolate brown? and going from there after the white primer?

[@Andyyybeeeee]

Thomas is just such an incredibly talented artist, and such a sweet human =)

[@TheArmyPainter]

Hard agree...

[@ricgus3]

Hi! Love the speedpaint range! Can I varnish my speedpainted minis with army painters matte Varnish?

[@TheArmyPainter]

Yes :)

[@donaldblack5290]

When is the single pots of 2.0 available? The local store still has not got the rack let alone the single pots. On the website it looks like only 1.0 is available.

[@thomasparsons8598]

I loved this, the rust effect looked amazing. could you maybe take a stab at the wizkids chromatic dragons at some point?

[@lagarazo]

Thanks for this fantastic videos! I'm painting my necrons using only speedpaints, including the metallic range, and I absolutely love the results. However when I apply the matt varnish as recommended for speedpaints, all the metallic look is unfortunately gone, and I'm left with a fully matt miniature. Would you have any recommendations on how to get better results? Thanks!

[@TheArmyPainter]

If you want a slightly shinier look you can try the Aegis Suit Satin Varnish. It'll be slightly shiny, but not overly glossy.

[@lagarazo]

I was worried it could reactivate the speedpaints if it's water based, but if it's safe to use I'm definitely buying it. Thanks for the reply!

[@matsholmqvist7257]

Super nice

[@j.taylor7361]

Does the zenithal highlighting really show through the metallic Speedpaint like it does the regular Speedpaint colors?

[@TheArmyPainter]

The metallic Speedpaint is a little more opaque, but you can definitely still see the base colour below it.

[@ftrumble1]

Awesome

[@cleric4933]

Quality content!

[@mahari7285]

To those who don't have those flourescent colors: Shamrock Green with some Medium (maybe 2:1) on a bright white underground makes a fantastic looking glowing green effect! 😅

[@TheArmyPainter]

Shamrock Green is an excellent Speedpaint choice for that signature gauss glow as well :)

[@QuimFreecss]

Great tutorial guys. I'm actually about to finish my marketing intership can I come and work on some amazing content with you? Haha

[@muglecruzle]

Now THIS is how you sell your paints!

[@akumaking1]

Necron Supremacy!

[@crashingatom6755]

How is TAP not at 100K subscribers? Fricken injustice, man.

[@kuzco5868]

How did you know I was just about to paint some necrons?! 🤔

[@Patriusprimus]

Great vids Guys, keep it goning :D

[@joshuatyler3701]

This video help me paint my space marines:it's about to get nuts.

[@davidpearson6916]

Personally I use Speedpaint Nuclear Sunrise for rust effects.

[@thehariboception1269]

It’s about to get NUTS!

[@mister_carrot8428]

I may just have to start a necron kill team to try out some of these paint schemes lol

[@Maquettesetfigurines]

Thanks à lot !

[@nickdavis5420]

Just got too work with mine and some dip as I’m working metal miniatures.
