[@TabletopGameBreaks]

You are my go to when it comes to painting. Thank you for everything... literally every miniature and terrain I own has been painted alongside your videos. Cheers!! And thank you again

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Awesome thanks for letting me know 😁

Cheers I just saw! I'll say hi properly once I have woken up 😁 there are a good bunch of guys in there!

[@TabletopGameBreaks]

Lol no worries! Happy to be apart of your community. Excited for what you have in store. I'm active in discord too. Talk to you there! Cheers!

Damned great video. I found this scheme way better than the Warhammer TV one, not that its bad but suits me better. Loving your channel and so useful, even for an experienced painter.

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Cheers! I really appreciate that!

[@RotGolem]

Great tutorial. Love the progression of drybrush layers for the pale off-white walls.

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Cheers mate!

[@proximityfpv1722]

best one so far and uses fast techs. Thanks!

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Scott-yl5gi]

Really good thanks, liked the corrosion bit at the end, very effective

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Cheers Scott - glad you found it useful!

[@stevenbaker3593]

Best tutorial on this I’ve seen.

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks Steven - appreciate it!

[@hamishmeads645]

Thanks mate, this was brilliant

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Cheers

[@CrazySoulflyFan]

I just watched this video (a few times), and was really indecisive about what to paint my terrain with. I wanted to say, this guide was awesome being able to use contrasts so easily and then spice things up with other paints on a DAMN good base paint you came up with. Keep up the good work!

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Cheers Joe - I appreciate the support - glad you liked it! I've recently released a guide on ork terrain as well that might not exactly be what you're looking for, but the techniques might help!

[@CrazySoulflyFan]

@@ThePaintingCoach I just watched it, thought about picking it up just based off your video!

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Haha glad you liked that one too!

[@CrazySoulflyFan]

@@ThePaintingCoach I'd love to share so you can see how they turned out.

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Check the video description for my instagram - or the about page to mail me direct - look forward to it :)

[@sylntghost007]

That looks fantastic.

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thank you!

[@Tr1ckyD84]

Fantastic tutorial, high detail in such quick and easy steps, thanks

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks Richard - glad you enjoyed it!

[@brokenheroics8223]

Great video. I have 2 sets of this terrain to paint and I started with a brown spray that matches Steel Legion Drab. I did some shading with washes. Going to dry brush the same way you did mate. Thanks.

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Glad you liked it!

[@paulofreire7520]

Great job, my man! 👍🏻

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks Paulo!

[@captainsmashypants8304]

really love your videos. can usually find one to inspire or instruct me. keep up the good work. ( thanks for leaving in the 'mistakes' good to see a method for dealing with them on drybrushed schemes)

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Cheers- I appreciate your support!

[@Wiggins773]

this is a great video thanks

[@ThePaintingCoach]

[@EssexBoyz]

Great tutorial and fantastic end result 😃👍🏼

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks - appreciate it!

[@TravellingForgottenPaths]

Fantastic !

[@ThePaintingCoach]

👍🏻

[@eleetwolfman3525]

Great tutorial. What you mind doing a video on how to thin down paints to get the right consistency, and do you use wet pallet?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Hi! Thanks for the comment! Yes I do use a wet palette and I will have that exact video out in the next week or two!

[@Sapper_DJ]

That’s a good tutorial thanks

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Cheers DJ!

[@kraffles]

Thanks for a clear tutorial. Just finished under coating my Vertigus set so ready to go. I guess the very bottom of the pipe sections could be weathered in that way too being close to the ground. In fact, would you suggest ALL the exteriors are weathered that way to get a cohesive look?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks Steve - I appreciate it - yeah I've done all mine that way! Vlends them in niceley

[@Xeviar339]

Do you varnish this terrain after painting it? If so, do you use flat on the stone and satin/gloss on the metal?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

I don't but if I did it would probably be matte all over If you want shiny metal then you could use satin varnish. I'd recommend trying on a spare bit of sprue to see what looks good

[@davemorris7845]

Great video, I will be using this technique for the walls on my Vertigus terrain set also. @The Painting Coach - On the red parts how does the finish of the bits you did in contrast and the bits you layered (Khorne red etc) compare? Is there a noticeable difference in shades or anything? I like the idea I'm just worried that if the shades are slightly off it will drive me mad.

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks Dave - i would say pop it on some spare sprue and see how you feel - i think contrast and a highlight looks good and a little more blended perhaps - ultimately if you try it and aren'r happy you can always paint over it!

[@Tatuscletus]

How the hell did you manage to apply that first step with Steel legion drab so fast??? I understand that a make up brush had more coverage, but what about the paint? How much water did it had? When I do big surfaces like that I end up with a lot of pools and bubbles. Teach me, master!

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Just a really heavy dry brush and keep the paint moving :)

[@ethday]

Fantastic as always! Just out of curiosity what do you think about putting your miniatures on clear bases?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks Ethan - I appreciate it! Clear bases can work - I've seen it done on Blood Bowl minis!

[@ethday]

@@ThePaintingCoach I have an odd question about the Amazon listing for the Winsor and Newton brushes. I live in the US and can't order through the link in the description, I was wondering if you could recommend any online retailers that wouldn't charge extortionate prices for it or if you know of some other way I can get my hands on them.

[@ThePaintingCoach]

I have in the past changed the .co.uk to .com and that's worked? Otherwise there is this www.amazon.com/Winsor-Newton-Kolinsky-Sable-Watercolor/dp/B0013E68SU/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=winsor%2Bnewton%2Bseries%2B7%2Bsize%2B1&qid=1597613815&sr=8-3&th=1&psc=1

[@ethday]

@@ThePaintingCoach The last link you sent worked. Changing the .co.uk to .com just makes a message pop up that says that "This item cannot be shipped to your selected delivery location."

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Ah ok!

[@jasonweber6624]

that looks like you primed with a gray color rather than chaos black

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Must be the light reflection - definitely black!
