My son is a wounded vet. Before he was hurt, he was a hard core Warhammer player. He introduced me to Warhammer and we listen to stories and talk about it because he remembers it clearly from before he was blinded. At first I "played" Warhammer with him as a way to be with him and do something he loved. But soon I fell in love with it. He's going to get me a 3D printer and I am going to learn to paint these amazing miniatures. I am very happy to find your channel. I have watched a lot of others and yours is truly one of the best to help us newbies learn. I will be following your tutorials when I get started with my own miniatures. I am learning a lot from you. Thank you!

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

It’s great that your able to connect with your son and enjoy the hobby together. Having hobbies gives us not only purpose but an escape. I wish you both enjoyment and good times moving forward 😁 keep practicing and painting 💪🏻 I know warhammer has helped me and I’m happy I can pay it forward

Outrageously clean. I'm almost at a point where I can finally start painting my first models and your videos have been great confidence builders. Very clear, concise, and nothing feels unapproachable.

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

I’m glad your feeling able to give painting a go. It’s very rewarding. Just make sure to take your time and enjoy the process when starting out. It takes some time to get use to 💪🏻

[@isaacHarrus]

These tutorials are absolutely fantastic! Getting box art level work with only a brush. Simply incredible.

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

Thank you. I try :D

[@bliz8260]

Hey man. So I want to start off by saying that I have searched around for videos on how to start painting figures as well as add different touches. Although there are many other bigger channels out there, your channel honestly has put me at ease when researching and painting. I can follow you step by step as well as see what I need to do and how to paint. You have really broken through to newer collectors as myself. Thank you for making these videos , I really do enjoy them and you can count me as a permanent subscriber and a community member of this channel. All the best , these terminators look sick , Cant wait to start on mine and follow your guidance. Looking forward to the next video.

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

thank you very much for taking the time to write this, I really apreciate it. I love making these tutorials and it's amazing knowing they actually help people with their own hobby. I've actually learnt a lot myself doing them. I always approach any tutorial with the attitude that the person watching has no idea what I'm talking about even if you would consider it a more advanced tutorial. I'm really glad I can help you with your own hobby and welcome to the channel

[@Tito_Silva]

I would like to thank you. When I started this hobby last year, the painting part was so intimidating to me, so complex and difficult. But you made me realize it's not so bad. Now painting is my favorite part of the hobby. Thank you, so much

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

This is exactly what I’m trying to do with my tutorials so it’s always nice to know that they’re helping people. 😊 that’s for letting me know and I hope you continue and improve.

[@marcolosi2572]

i like your style. And your honesty. Efforts and patience are needed for a great result

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

Thank you 😊

[@LukeChudoba]

I typically edge highlight with a dry brush and an unthinned paint. I do make sure I don't have too much paint on my brush so if that counts as thinning then I do thin my paint, but I use a dry brush. If you're very stable and accurate your lines come out incredibly smooth and bright. This might be a difficult technique but its really nice looking.

[@thewolfpack7718]

Ah, fantastic! I was hopping you would do terminators. I got a fresh pack for my salamanders. But it's a simple color swap. Blue to green. Thanks Mike.

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

Exactly. You can you use the salamander tutorial I made 😃 and together you’ll have some awesome looking terminators

[@ericcson3429]

Haha same. I watch this video repeatedly to learn, so I'm getting the tune stuck in my head all the time.

[@LukeChudoba]

I do the gold on the chest using a base layer of Runelord brass, then I build it up with a layer or two of Retributor armor, then I put an agrax earthshade wash before finishing it with another layer of retributor armor as highligh then I use liberator gold edge high light. It looks very nice when its finished.

I have been using mcgragg blue and Calgar for the first shade. Never knew about altdorf blue. I might try that instead.

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

I decided to use altdorf guard blue because it’s very close to that mix and I always prefer not to mix paints as it’s easier more straight forward. Especially when painting multiple miniatures

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

Don’t worry about mistakes. Your gonna make em. Take extra time with the initial grid. You can paint t over lines that don’t work. I did. And then take your time when neatening up. I spent a good 20 minutes or so just tidying up this squares going back and forth between colours. Good luck with your next project. If your feeling apprehensive, write down all the steps and create your own guide. It helps me but I know I don’t have to be strict with it and change my mind as I go along.

honestly, they looked spot on and there really isn't much of a leap being able to get something to that satndard and then to a display standard, you just do more highlghts basically ha

I’ve been thinking about doing a tutorial on highlighting but I wonder how useful It would be 🤷🏼‍♂️ or what I could ad that I don’t already say. 🤔 hmmm let me think about it 😋

[@ImpStyle1]

@@TableTopReadyKZbin I know there has already been a lot of talk about it, including from other content creators. But you are very good at explaining, and it would be nice if you could tell me what tricks you use, how to place the hands or whatever you can think of. I also think that to make fian lines also influences the dilution of the paint. I use wet palette, and there the dilutions in water of the paint can vary. Well you are the expert, I put myself in your hands.

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

Okay. Those are some good talking points

I tried to do the eavy metal style paint job on a single marine, after a week, i have landed in a circle like maze, where i get a edge highlight opps got a little here, lets clean that up, opps got a bit there etc etc. Eventually i habe gone... Meh as i have realised all the pre layer highlights are now gone from all of the back and forth and im now finishing it off. You make it look so very easy and your really good and breaking things down. Have you recently had a mini that didnt go your way? Or have you mastered this section of the hobby, because to me it seems like you have :)

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

Yes I know this pain. I would just stick to practicing. Your edge highlights only for a bit for now. I have a dedicated highlighting tutorial coming out very soon which should help. I’ve recently been trying to get the winged prime from leviathan box painted and it’s just not working for me. When this happens I just take a step back and work on something else and I’ll come back to it later. 🖖🏻

[@anthonybroadby3026]

Can you please do some blood angels with the new models🩸😇

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

Honestly I’ll probably be sticking to ultramarines for anything I paint from the box. If you want to paint blood angels. The same techniques are used and you can use the bloody rose tutorial for the colours I would use for the armour. I do want to revisit painting blood angels but that’s for the future

[@KingyoOtoko]

Potentially dumb question. With the subassembly, after you've painted it. Will the plastic glue work on sticking the parts together with paint? Or do you use a different glue?

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

if you are using plastic glue, you can scrape away some of the paint to create a better bond. other wise super glue can be used with no issues. For these guys though, they are push fit so I didn't actually glue them together :O except to the base

[@KixV]

I got one Question, how do you make glazes? Do you use Lahmian Medium or just Water? Btw great Tutorial, shame im a Dark Angels Player

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

you make a glaze thinning your paint quite a bit. in the tutorial I do say 2 parts water to 1 part paint which seems to be about right but its not an exact science, just try it out. I will be covering deathwing in a future tutorial but you can still use this tutorial, you just change the colours.

[@wengeance8962]

at 13:20 how does he make a dawnstone recess shade? is that with lahmian medium or with water? how should I make my own recess shades from citadel paints?

[@TableTopReadyYoutube]

when ever I'm glazing I just use water. for a recess shade I thin it with an equal amount of water, if you feel you need it to be thinner then just add more water untill you feel comfortable with it

I mention at the start of the tutorial. The sprays are a colour match for the paints in the pot. You could just have the sprayed base colour, but when you want to neaten up or have to reapply a base colour anywhere, it will be very noticable.

I don't really like basing to be honest ha when I finish painting a miniature, i then don't want to have to worry about basing it as well. I also made the decision to use them for the channel because I want the focus to be the miniature and not how it's based as basing is a very personal choice and everyone bases differently anyway.
