How to paint the BLACK TEMPLARS - NMM black

[@folked-up]

Easily the best black templar I've ever seen. Brilliant.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

😍😍😍

[@PumpkinHoard]

It looks amazing, but tbh I think it looks a little too metallic and not black enough for a Black Templar.

[@abelbabel8484]

I've once seen one that was even more real looking. He punched me in the face when I said a prayer wrong, then went back to the crusade. I miss him :(

[@Sabamonster]

@@PumpkinHoard As he said though; black in nature (and most objects) is not actually black. It's a collection of hues that result in too many "colors" to be an actual color and a near complete loss of value.

[@ingiald7970]

For me this is the best black templat i ever seen: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXzRqHyMequChas

[@jewishdictionary1715]

Marco : demonstrates high level color theory and airbrush skills Me and my half clogged $30 airbrush : finally our time to shine

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

😁😂😁😂😁

[@anthonyflynn2662]

a $30 airbrush give's me hope lol

[@Obitoclip]

I am starting a Black Templars army and I have watched this video an unhealthy amount of times. This is by far the best Black Templar paint job I have ever seen. All I can hope for is to at least get my black paint right ^^

[@DASISTMONGO]

Same..... I'm also doing a vader bust....and this helps...with "what" I'd like to achieve.... if not... lol I'll have to print another one.. lol

[@innsmouthharbour]

"Let's paint a Black templar" Most YT painters - Black Templar contrast paint, edge highlight - done Marco, the secret to painting black is to not use black - WTF!!!! then goes on to show how to make chromatic black warm and cold variants which in mere moments produces a model that is jaw droppingly awesome........... Why can we only click the like button once per video??? Just doesn't do it justice. Love ya bro

[@l33tpie]

Yes, we need a like button to press as I do now, when I see the video, and another when we finish watching it.

[@deboozombie23]

Jaw dropping, is exactly what I was thinking and doing.

[@jamiebestminiatures]

Exactly!

[@philgee486]

We need to be able to thumbs up twice

[@HowieSmith-xh9xe]

Possibly the best miniature painter on KZbin in my opinion, I would say I don't find you videos "beginner friendly" but I do enjoy watching them for inspiration.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Thanks a million man! Yeah there a ton of resources out there for beginners so I aimed to an intermediate/advanced audience from the start 😊

[@mattheo7634]

Marco you are a gift to the painting community. The amount of knowledge and skills showed in every video are always a motivation to push oneself over their comfort zone. 💪

[@twolgast]

This is not miniature painting, this is pure art.

[@bettsdn]

"Better than the Box Art" Marco is at it again! Brilliant work, man!

[@osareafallire]

Your process is so dramatic. In the early stages I'm always thinking "Nooooo, that looks so mess......... Oh holy hell!! That turned out INCREDIBLE!!!" As they always do. Thanks for the share Marco. You're a master!

[@Davies46]

Painting Templars with Abaddon and Chaos black is heresy so I approve strongly of this video.

[@FrancoCiminoPrado]

This is possibly the most important channel I've found on the last time. You have a lot of knowledge and one can see the enjoyment you have by painting this. Awesome video, awesome content, keep up that great work, this was a HUGE inspiration. Thanks!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

😍😍😍 Thanks a million man!!! Super appreciated!!!

[@philgee486]

Came back to this vid January 22 after looked at two respected painter's vids that purported to be painting black without it being painted into being grey instead. They were very grey. Very. This is a very chromatic black that achieves all the interest in the world without having to paint it grey. Masterful work,, masterful tuition, all Marco

[@johnaitken7430]

You do good stuff Marco..you speak in art terms and don’t patronize the viewer. Thankyou

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Thanks a million 😍😍😍!!! From the beginning of the channel I wanted to direct the videos to an audience that appreciates the artistic side of the hobby, I don't care if it's not mainstream or it doesn't make huge numbers 😁😁😁

[@I_am_Spartacus]

Probably the single best YT video on miniature painting I've ever seen on YT.....

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@tomekhekin914]

You are the best miniatures painting teacher. Miniature Bob Ross BAM !!!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

😂😂😂😘

[@MrSarwat]

Can you, one of these days, give us a small video tour of your collection of finished miniatures? That's something I got to see, a good clean shot of everything all together!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Sadly this will be an extremely disappointing video 😅😅😅 I paint for work and this doesn't leave a lot of time for personal projects. Plus I sell or give away most of what I paint and my Warmachine armies and all the resin kits and mechs remained in Italy when I moved to Ireland.... My whole personal collection now is inside a small army box 😅

[@MrSarwat]

@@MarcoFrisoniNJM Aww, oh well Would still like to see some video showcasing some of your collection and maybe some voice over talking about favorites, past experience which could be both good and bad stuff like that. That's always better than some simple screenshots that's thrown on twitter like most artist do. Maybe something to think about in the future?

[@chemicalcaveman]

@@MarcoFrisoniNJM Wait a minute! You're in Ireland? I'm based in Kinsale in Cork myself. Great work on this dude. First video of yours I've watched and I'm going over to have a look on Patron

[@subyhandstands285]

The best paint job ive ever seen. On anything.

[@T22Lee]

To have just 1% of this man's talent... This was amazing.

Finally some painter that says that a reddish black can look good on armor, thank you sir.

[@moviemaniac1838]

This is one of the best best paint jobs I've seen. Outstanding!

[@jakubtyrakowski]

I absolutely adore your videos. I spend a lot of time watching miniature tutorials, but yours always feel like a proper art class. Really help to expand the horizons!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Thank you sooooo much!!!

[@anthonysaffioti9048]

Aside from the skills , theory and the beauty of your work, your use of language is wonderful. As a place to learn the art and craft and passion of painting miniatures, this is one of, if not, the best channels. How is great, why is better! Cheers Marco for the amazing little things , that separate you from almost all the other channels not artists!

[@anthonysaffioti9048]

[@stefanblackadder5236]

I’m amazed on how much information and learning I’m getting from one video.

[@baNa123]

Please keep always this work up, your way to explain is so direct and inspiring that took me back to painting after 2 years of stop

[@terrynicholls2975]

Good Lord, Marco. This is Fine Art. You never fail to astonish.

nope, ur not the only one :)

[@innsmouthharbour]

@@MarcoFrisoniNJM bro, you have earnt our trust by showing the world what can be done with practice, knowledge and a mentor "holding your hand" through the early stages. Nobody else on YT does what you do! Infinite respect for ya

[@tfm2934]

I'm there with you man. I hit 'like' as soon as the video loads because I'm still in that "Hell yes another NJM video!" vibe after seeing the alert in my notifications.

[@tabletoppdx]

It's been a whole year and I still can't imagine being able to do this. So many great lessons to revisit.

[@boxy2k8]

I am chomping at the bit for when its the Dark Angels turn! Awesome video man

[@xXWarPotatoXx]

Wow, this was really really good guide. Absolutely spectacular

[@FirstLast-ks6vm]

You know, it's funny... I just rewatched the first of this series and was wondering when we'd see the next one. Lo and behold. Thanks Marco, really excited to see this one.

[@guillermomelendez7950]

This was so interesting to watch. Not just because of the amazing finishing product but genuinely interesting approach to colours and application.

[@maxschmidt666]

And then start the video.

[@joebringas4807]

Wow Marco! Great video. I think I finally have a road map on how I will be doing my Abaddon the despoiler. Just beautiful

[@SunnySkyNL]

Very inspirational, I have been painting miniatures for almost a year now and love it, constantly trying to challenge myself to get better and get out of my comfortzone. Bought my airbrush set a month ago and trying to learn how to use it and be comfortable with it. Seeing this inspires me to keep trying so thank you for that! 😌

[@benthomsen2220]

The best marine chapter, thanks for this!

[@mordecai0815]

Dude this Video is absolutely fricking epic! Thank you! This is easily the best looking mini I have seen in some time.

[@andrewd2099]

Absolutely brilliant Marco! My Eldar army is primarily black in color, and I struggled to create interesting contrasts across the models. I was hoping you'd get around to painting a mostly-black model. Here you are, and once again you've blown me away with your passion, creativity, and talent! Can't wait for your next video.

[@PhthaloGreenskin]

Hey how has this method worked out for you? I'm thinking of trying it on a spare warp Spider now that I have an airbrush and some inks.

[@doubleheadedeagle6769]

That is one big miniature. Love the design. Great details.

[@tfm2934]

That cloth on the back and the red glow light are both next level in terms of how they add visual interest. Fantastic result and very reusable on many other armies/models.

[@antonwinter630]

fantastic video. im still getting my head around the mixing of the colors to make black. the end result is incredible

[@joshuaford9704]

I think this was the most impressive video I've seen from Marco so far. Well done sir!!

[@BefuddledGentleman]

Love your work, Marco. I swear though, I listen to the words you say, I watch your technique and the end product you produce is still absolute magic to me. Keep up the good work, sir!

[@JustinBrown-gh9vv]

I’ve been painting my Templars this way ever since watching your video. Nowhere near as well as this, but it’s definitely improved my understanding of color. Fantastic video.

[@deltabairsoft]

Very good concepts to take into account. The final result is gorgeous... it is more an ilustration than a mini... Bravo!!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Thanks a million man!!! Super appreciated!!!

[@KingLRobo]

finally!! we've been waiting for episode 2 for so long! Excellent work

[@aaronjones1752]

I truly enjoy watching you work. It's amazing and beautiful. You're one of my favorite artists and I mean that in the purist way

[@legweg1149]

Explaining complex things with this level of simplicity is a great skill, but not nearly comparable as your painting level

That is absolutely incredible. Having watched this video I may as well throw everything I have in the bin or start the hobby 40 years ago 😭😭😭

[@Toivo1066]

Bam! I'd watch an NJM video if Marco said he's going to decorate a cake with Chinese glue and some gunk he found under his refrigerator. I just know I'll learn lots of amazing things, and the time spent watching is my moment of zen for the week. I had no previous interest in Black Templars, and that was the most amazing video since the color wheel one blew my mind. I'm not a trained artist, and I don't have an intuitive feel for colors and light, so when I say 'mind blown', I'm speaking in subtleties and understatement. Thank you Marco. P.S. Your delivery style is the best of any video creator I follow. This, and all your videos, are always thoroughly enjoyable.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 Thank you sooooooooooooooooooo much!!!

[@wl7170]

[@mrplague2270]

Thats just crazy how you can paint that well, its so fucking good

[@metallicadead]

This is just brilliant. I've tried the same kind of scheme but working exclusively with cold colors in the airbrush to give off a "black steel" kind of vibe (also because i like blue, dabadee dabada). Great tutorial, very clear instructions and the result is just awesome. Thanks a lot!

[@yagsipcc287]

He is amazing! He is the reason I now use alot of oil on my minis. I think he is the reason why so many people now use them even on KZbin. When he started it was hard to find videos on it outside of some old video's on a bust or two and of course Vince also had some old video's on oil paints they were also great.

[@lwaxanax3171]

I don’t know if you already did a video on how to paint white. This video helped so much on painting black, that’d I really like to see how you paint white.

[@rafaelguasco]

@@MarcoFrisoniNJM Hehe, you already have the practice, no really, your videos are very very useful and enlighting, i already bough some inks, but i need a couple more, and my next step will be oil paints, i'm really impressed on how "easy" and forgiving is to paint with oil paints that i dont understand why we use acrylic paints... ✌🏻

[@gwingcommander]

I'll just echo what others have said - the explanation of chromatic black vs. black from the pot just busted my head open. I never would've considered something like that, but then you see the difference in the mini and it seems so obvious. Fantastic lesson in color theory. Much thanks
