Painting Blood Angels like the box art - SECRETS revealed by former 'Eavy Metal painter

[@MiniatureMasterClass]

I'm thrilled this channel is still going. So many KZbin painters post videos guessing how the 'eavy Metal teams paints, so to have an actual 'eavy Metal painter teaching us how to do it is priceless. Please keep the videos coming!

[@marksutherlandjr.2121]

The peak behind the curtain in a community of painters like ours it's literally legendary this channel.

[@Darian.Vorlick]

I'm just marveling at the absolutely insane brush control on the third stage highlight.

[@CMDante]

Hands down the best “how to paint blood angels” video around! Incredible paint job and the production quality of the vid, clarity of instruction and all the extra tips make this an incredible resource! Love it broodah! 💪🩸

[@InfernalBrush]

Thank you dude! ♥

[@the_zombie_ritual897]

I agree it’s amazing how no one is really producing proper content on these techniques and style for a blood angel!

[@josephoutward]

Agreed. Fantastic painter and communicator.

[@dekai7992]

@the_zombie_ritual Well, different people have different styles, which is a good thing. And, while incredibly impressive technically, painting an entire army in this style wouldn't really be feasible, time-wise, for the vast majority of hobbyists.

[@neezyseason9949]

Finally, I was very happy to see this! I've been wanting to start a Blood Angels army for a long time

[@89jmills]

What an incredible artist and teacher you are. Always a gift when the true masters choose to share their skills.

[@marksutherlandjr.2121]

There is somthing REALLY special about this style of painting. There is a reason this is the box art. Personally Ive tried my hand at this style and its still quite beyond what I'm capable of when it comes to my patience for the cause. I get the results I need, on the timeframe I'm willing/capable of investing with my GrimDark style, it feels a bit more Rated R. But the polished Clean look of these models NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE! Edit: Really REALLY love this channel!

[@dogsauce747]

easily the best blood angles tutorial. a whole series of these would do really well i think

[@facesnbases9853]

This is incredible free content. Such a concise and clear guide on how to achieve that next level box art. Thankyou so much for this video.

[@benboy80]

Fantastic work as always, I always get a huge sense of nostalgia when I see these marine tutorials, and recently decided after 30 years away from painting things as a lad to make a return to the hobby, inspired after seeing your ultramarine video.

[@EMPERORSPROTECTION-TERRA4LIFE]

Im actually in awe, amazing skills, top notch explanation, top tier camera work. And the model looks amazing!

[@timofthestars4076]

Can really see a difference in production quality even over the Ultramarine video. Great work dude, super detailed tutorial at just the right length.

[@user-be2nt8bi9j]

THANK YOU THIS WILL LOOK KILLER

[@chaseherrington]

Wow, this has inspired me to try again at painting my Blood Angels terminators. I loved your step by step and showing some of the progress between glazes

[@patticusfinch139]

A Eavy’ Metal Salamanders tutorial would be awesome

[@kettusnuhveli]

This one is really similar to the one Darren Latham used to have on his channel before it got nuked by GW. Glad to see you bring this recipe back!

[@colinboon6612]

First class paint job and top tier music. Loved it.

[@fitzlock8349]

About to start a commission for some Heresy Blood Angels so this was very timely! Won't be taking it quite as far but this is super useful regardless.

[@jamesrichards2442]

Superb tutorial. Clearly explains and demonstrates the process.

[@Tommerignac-pichaud]

BEAUTIFUL !!!

[@paintbusch]

Holy damn Dave! This is by far your best video so far! The paintjob is out of this world, but the editing as well is just bloody amazing. Well done mate! I’m so tempted to try out my hand at painting a Blood Angel, but I wanted to finish my Death Guard Kill Team first 😢

[@WithGas]

Holy sh-- this is crisp! Amazing!

[@Philtoid]

Thank you for the tips and tutorials mate.

[@theeyeiswatching8036]

I love watching your videos, they're great for getting me to push my painting to the next level of detail! really appreciate you giving out these detailed recipes!!

[@RealDuendeNoFake]

I was just about to paint a blood angels from the space marine heroes set! tysm for this :>

[@borysrybak]

You are a legend Dave! Pure perfection - I can't get enough, your paint jobs are flawless - every time I watch your videos I get motivated to paint for next months

[@ionminiatures]

Good to see you back again. This is another excellent tutorial.

[@Hoacakes]

You're back!! Love your vids :)

[@johnfields5908]

Looking good, I'm going to try this one out on my next project.

[@stormcrow7611]

New video! And a firstborn this time. Very classy mate.

[@mirage809]

It’s always a joy to see the Eavy Metal style painted. It’s a very defined style that makes the details stand out beautifully on pictures, but it also looks good on the table. Glazing is a skill I need to hone more. It can add so much life to those large flat armour panels that marines are known for.

[@SonOfTegz]

An absolutely gorgeous paint job, looks beyond good.

[@Vin_Venture896]

Really well done video! Really good god on condensing all the info into 25 minutes considering the usual length of Patreon content. FWIW, if people are looking for tutorials on the new Votann, Cadians, or the Mangler Squigs that got him a Golden Demon then get your ass on Patreon!

[@CaptnBeardy]

CRACKIN' paint vid. Loved learning details of what goes into the 'Eavy Metal painting. I'd love to see you tackle the Imperial Guard. Never found a decent video showing them off cos it's always " camo pattern this" or "speed paint" that so seeing you run through a guard would be perfecto.

[@crayzeewhorse]

Wow Dave, that's absolutely incredible! 💯

[@TehCryus]

Thank you so much for the detailed explanations on your process! Even on different models and colours all those tips are very valuable

[@michaelstrange2285]

Gorgeous!

[@mrg2039]

A master at his craft. I really love this one. The eavy metal style isn't normally my thing, but I just picked up a copy of 4th edition space Hulk and I think its fitting to do the Terminators in this style. Thanks for the videos 😊

[@trialnerror3643]

Hot damn that is some inspiring work right there. Enough inspiration to paint an entire army with such love and attention to detail. May the Emperor have mercy on my noob level attempts at this in the future

[@simonlerouge552]

Lovely to see you earlier for a brew dude.... Great vid . Si 😉

[@InfernalBrush]

Thanks Si! Was awesome to catch up dude!

[@pattsy40k]

This is so good it hurts the eyes! Great tutorial, I feel like most people can get close to your model with these steps!

[@scroggie_mini_painting3983]

Stunning work as always! Fantastic tips & advice during as well. These are massively appreciated 👍🏼

[@dursunbilinmis8643]

Pls WE need more of your Guides . Those are Epic . Much Respect for your Painting🎉🎉🎉

[@Cronkiteo]

What a fantastic video. I got a box of the Space Hulk terminators and I’ll definitely be trying this out on a few of them, thank you for the tutorial!

[@ooTheRustySheriffoo]

Fantastic stuff Dave 👍🏼 I’ve always been fascinated by the blending on Gutrot Spume’s tentacle (box art version). The transitions through the blues and greens followed by the highlights to portray a sense of tension and movement - very lifelike to an octopus 🤙🏼

[@Vin_Venture896]

Fun fact - InfernalBrush actually painted the Gutrot Spume on the box art.

[@kiesminis]

Good to see you back on here buddy, this was an awesome tutorial!

[@martinsivertsen7485]

Fantastic video, Dave! Thanks for creating such great content ❤️

[@WAcrobat19]

In the process of priming several Blood Angels from the combat patrol box, and I'm pretty excited to try some of these methods out! Of course I'mma try to trim down the armor steps

[@rhysvokes5351]

fantastic tutorial, trying to up my skill level after a fair few years out of the hobby, this video has been a fantastic inspiration its really well filmed showing the stages thanks!

[@TeaAndMinis]

Incredible work and very inspirational. Just got back into the hobby after 23ish years away from it and having channels out there now that breakdown painting at this level is just great. I aspire to have at least one mini that reaches this level of finish someday!

[@josephwestley1862]

Really high qauilty good video and blood angel.

[@gi1dor]

Love your tutorials, watched ultramarines one a dozen times, very inspiring and super helpful for someone who likes 'eavy metal style like me Please do more! Videos about techniques from you would also be great!

[@kevinhull7175]

Thanks so much for this video. The painting guide is awesome, but specifically it's knowing the right colours to use as well. Can I say the quick colour pallet added at the beginning of this video was very handy 👍

[@bomberman64rodriguez41]

It looks soo good!

[@RobTheHandsome1]

Priceless!! Keep it up.

[@artusyeddou5792]

As always thank you for bringing so many amazing techniques to people, it just helps so much to get better !

[@hakeeta5780]

Damn, this is clean. Hats off to you, sir. Thanks for the amazing video and guidance.

[@Filippo5]

Great to see you back!!

[@libertyxgames7333]

2 mins in already better then my paint jobs

[@chaosclg]

Awesome tutorial! Love how effortless you blend the reds

[@jakub_paints6775]

You mean I can´t just paint contrast red and drybrush ushabti ? In all seriousness, great video ! I just have to paint a Blood Angel now.

[@ArielSasinsky]

Awesome video!

[@Kresnov]

Why do I catch myself holding my breath whenever I watch one of IB's tuttorials.

[@PalaeoJoe87]

What an incredible tutorial, so clear! Thank you

[@dogfish100]

love all of your videos. I think it would be useful if you could do a video showing tips to mastering techniques, for example when you create a glaze to what level you thin the paint with water/glazing medium and then control of the paints. and other tips surrounding blending. something a lot of advanced painting videos don't cover in depth but would help when trying to master a higher level of painting

[@battleartbrushworks]

Can't believe I've only stumbled across your channel. Really amazing work on every video. Please keep these videos coming. They're a great learning tool for all levels. And very entertaining also

[@mill0rify]

After watching your video, the missing ingridient for my Blood Angels became clear! It's talent, i am missing talent ;) Very nice Tutorial. Now i just get 2 new arms for such a steady brushstroke.

[@kevineldred5725]

Loving your content: awesome skills and humble description of execution. Hope you keep making such great videos.

[@maxd11111]

Best tutorials on yt. Would be cool to see how you’d paint mephiston too.

[@harald2101]

incredible work. mini looks so great i want to eat it.

[@oleww50]

Wow, love it ❤

[@user-de5zp6qd7c]

'Eavy Metal painter Is the strongest,I'll always love your style!!

[@Sangvinivs]

Thankyou for this vey amazing and accurate video. I’m not playing anymore but I’m going to re-do my commander as a primaris. I found your channel just in time 🦾

[@Max0oh]

It's hard to understand every stage cause english is not my native langage but damn, i can't wait to try it myself ! Thanks a lot to be so much inspirational :D

[@richburke25]

It’s just so, so nice 😭 Perfection

[@malakim1773]

I've been looking for this exact red for years and it is incredibly satisfying finding a source detailing how it's done because Mephiston red on it's on has never been giving that incredible colour that's seen in things like the GW Blood Angels painting guide book or Codex artwork. Very happy with this video

[@malakim1773]

I also don't know what I need to do to get it but I'll do anything for a mustard yellow Lamenters video. I have no idea where to even begin with it or what I'm looking for colour wise. I really like the image in the 5th edition codex but sources and art are almost non-existent and I don't want them to look like they could be confused with Imperial Fists with a different shoulderpad

[@andrewwesley3079]

At last I have found the look I wanted for my blood angels 😂 Thank you 👍

[@EMPERORSPROTECTION-TERRA4LIFE]

Thankyou so much! Legend!

[@tattered08]

Amazing video, thank you

[@martindearlove969]

Got rid of my BA's a few years ago and regretted it every day... so i've just delved back in and got a new army, be looking to use this for sure, great job

[@oscarmalin-clegg9729]

Bro ive just found your channel and please please keep these videos coming, im getting back in to collecting and paiting warhammer and the videos are so useful. greatly talented you are my friend :)))

[@candidlearner3191]

You did the onager dunecrawler? Well then I have to give you a massive thanks! That model (and especially it’s paintjob) is the entire reason I got into this hobby! So now i know I have you to thank for that for that!

[@nomcognom2332]

Brutally well painted!!

[@spuriusligustinus4509]

Yes, more edge highlighting visual ASMR ! Like you said, brush control is one of the most important aspects of mini painting and edge highlighting is THE best way to improve on it. It's getting tiring to see other YT channels saying "you don't need to edge highlight" or "you don't need to paint the details or using the "brand new painting invention" that is slapchop... Patience, practice and brush control are the only ways to improve and learn new skills and you videos are the best around for the 'eavymetal style

[@dekai7992]

Well, of course, "you don't need to edge-highlight" if it's not the style you're going for. Volumetric highlighting or Blanchitsu styles, for example, aren't dependent on that. I love me some 'Eavy Metal style once in a while, and I marvel at Dave's work and skill, but it's by far not the only correct way to do things. If flawless edge-highlights are your jam, that's awesome, but let's not be uncharitable towards other artists just because they don't rely on this one technique as much or not at all. There's a host of other techniques (glazing, panel lining, OSL, weathering, distressing, freehanding) to be practising brush control with, as well.

[@spuriusligustinus4509]

@@dekai7992 Never said or thought that but sadly there are, for me, too many YT channels that only talk about speed and time. The examples you give are all good ones but they require patience, brush control and time and in this day and age it's all about "gotta do it fast" and not painting as a journey, a way to meditate (for some), a way to improve on skills. But I stand by the fact that edge highlighting is the best and "easiest" way to improve brush control compared to other techniques

[@0031xcfsteve]

Awesome tutorial!

[@zazen69]

Great work! Would love to see a video on the new Necrons.

[@r_Goose]

You are on another level my guy 🔥

[@tommyswarvideo]

Great video. I can't speak highly enough of Dave's Patreon. Join today, you won't be disappointed, it's utterly amazing!

[@InfernalBrush]

Thank you for the support 🙏 ❤️

[@faidon90125]

Speechless as always!

[@Psilocybear]

Amazing! Would love to see you do one for Night Lords

[@lukearnold8984]

It's on his Patreon

[@redcap2771]

Great to see your content again. My top 3, next to JuanHidalgo and Trovarion.

[@tombrand236]

New to your channel (not sure how I missed it until now!) but found it full of interesting insights and tips.

[@benw8825]

Wow. Awesome!

[@AgeofGuns]

I love your channel and this Blood Angel looks amazing! I would absolutely love to see how you paint Emperor’s Children for Horus Heresy.

[@jontyhugh1080]

You painted Halgrim! No way he was my favourite model of cursed city, nice job!

[@aroncheek5092]

As I watched your video I was using model air silver, by far the best silver imo. I use model air mainly, bought a set of 8 basic colours for painting miniatures but I also paint scale models and gundam . Great video 😊

[@BrettEnnis]

Amazing video, thank you!

[@CMTechnica]

9 months later, he uploads again!

[@InfernalBrush]

🤣 Hopefully it wont be that long again!

[@BadDubII]

Crazy how it just steps up to the next level once the light highlights are added

[@Gramsci]

One of the most interesting things about watching Eavy Metal painting, either this or the Masterclass on WH+ is Shade wash is almost never used. Recesses are dark glazes.

[@jaceks1962]

Great tutorial. I hope you will be stull publishing content on that channel
