I love your painting style and videos. Bonus points for absolutely knocking my 3 year old daughter into the deepest sleep ever.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

😂😂😂 happy to help

[@adamdoughty813]

I spent many hours having to polish endless amounts of brass. You sir have hit the nail on the head.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Thanks, I basically spent about 1.5 years making jewelry out of brass for the jewelry school, so I was extremely picky about this one. I'm happy with the tone and I'm glad other think the same

[@jamesrichards2442]

Looks like the start of a full army of marines with quartered armour in NMM black and brass. The veteran sergeants will all have NMM red helmets. No blue anywhere. :D

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

I actually love that 😂

[@Jay_Chuppy]

This tutorial couldn’t have come at a better time. KZbin has so few videos on NMM brass and you published this one the week before I began work on a brass dragon for my brother’s D&D campaign. I’ve watched this at least 3 times now. Thank you!

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Yeah, the sole reason I made this one is because I couldn't find any videos that I felt were good about brass. Glad I could help you mate

[@russellladds4454]

Juan, that edge highlight was a joy to watch. I really do think that you produce some of the best content available at the moment in terms of painting tutorials. Absolutely top notch production, and so relaxing to watch.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Thanks mate, that really means a lot to me. 😘

[@PijamasGagarin]

I am always sceptical towards NNM but this new series (white, black, and now brass) really makes me not just want to try but actually do it myself. Thank you for sharing and hope to see more (maybe copper next time? weathered as well :D ).

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Copper is already done!! Just add the same weathering as the Brass

[@PijamasGagarin]

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures oh my, yes, you are right, I didn't see it, sorry. Once again, thank you for your awesome content!

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Thank you for watching 😘

[@tanarukk]

Love this. That music is so calming it put me to sleep twice, while at work lol.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

That's the plan, if you are asleep the videos will just keep on playing! VIEWS FOR THE VIEWS GOD

[@malignant_rumor]

This is such a good tutorial and it gets a beautiful result! I ordered an artist proof mcfarlane space marine that I want to paint as a Salamander, and I'll probably go with this method to get some brass trim

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

That's an amazing idea

[@AdnanCucak]

Youre amazing Juan! A fantastic painter, I really enjoy your style and appreciate the tutorials you give us! Im a better painter after following your stuff.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Thanks mate 😘

[@Mordraqq]

Whatever NMM you are working at ,your style and work on these is as always Outstanding ! Keep up the good work mate !

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Thanks mate 😘

[@SilverOilman]

Incredible work! This would push the limits of what I'm currently capable of so I may have to attempt this!

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

YES! That's the way to go!

[@Crushanator1]

That black and brass nmm looks really good. I was just talking with a bud about doing Archaon and 12 bros for AOS, and this is REALLY tempting me to sell all the random chaos and order stuff I have in various stages of painting to give me a project I can really focus on and actually achieve results like this

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

That sounds AWESOME!!!

[@Ed-xo9pc]

Do I work or watch Juan and another one of his amazing vids..............good job Im working from Home and no one can see me!

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

That's the true spirit of remote working!

[@robwardell8278]

Amazing. I’ve been wanting to give NMM a go and this really helped make it look achievable. Thanks!

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Happy to help! Be sure to check the rest of my NMM videos!

[@robwardell8278]

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures watching them all now 👍🏻 Also great! I see you’re also a fan of Darren Latham - your style of video and his are similar and it’s one I really like; no frills or gimmicks, just solid painting in a clear and calm way. I’ve subscribed and can’t wait to see more.

Yo estaba contento con lo que he pintado hoy, a sido ver el vídeo y deprimirme 🤣🤣, actualmente esto está fuera de mi alcance, pero es un placeraco enorme verte en acción. A ver si en un futuro no muy lejano están los vídeos en castellano.🤘🏻

Dam your voice is so smooth also great tutorial

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Thanks mate 😘 I was actually quite sick when I recorded that so my voice is extra SMOOTH

[@andreastucchi6191]

Hello! Do you have somewhere a completed version of those marines, to see where to put reflections on other parts?😅

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

No, I only paint legs. That's what the pros do

[@porcu12345]

I feel like the legs are pretty easy to highlight, but I really struggle with where to place the NMM shadows and highlights on areas like the chest where it runs down underneath the armpit towards the hip.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

You have to follow the same strip of Highlight as in the chest. Just think of the four sources of light and follow them. You can take a look at the work of Gareth Nicholas on Space Marines to see where he places lights and Shadows

[@porcu12345]

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures Thanks! I'll take a look! I'm using this brass video to paint a marine and it's my first time doing NMM so it's quite daunting with where to go next.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

I know, it can definitely be intimidating but you can certainly do it!

[@socomchamp00]

cant love this enough!

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Thanks 😘

[@jostonpowell1346]

Looks good to me, I always see gold as more yellow and brass as more brown

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Thanks

[@HadronFlux]

Crap - I may have to do my Stormcast army in this color. Love it.

Thanks

estuvo muy bueno el video, saludos.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Gracias guapetón 😘

[@culchiepaints6185]

This looks great, thank you! Is there a particular reason you only use Citadel paints? :)

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Yes, because they are my favourite paints 😊

[@youtubevanced4900]

I'm shocked how good that comes out. I was thinking he's about half way through blending that leg, then you just started highlighting. Makes me think I've been looking for too perfect of a blend when I've tried and always give up. How long did that leg alone take you?

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

That leg, the same as the black one was one painting session. No idea on time though. And yes, as the great Banshee says: F*ck Blending. People obsess over smooth blends and forgets about what's most important, LIGHT, light is everything. If you get the light well, the blending is just the icing on the cake but by no means a must.

[@andrewlutes2048]

[@russellspencer3214]

So much for using the edge of the brush to edge highlight 😂

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

The edge of the brush has its limits 😊

[@Obsrv-r]

Hey, Juan. Do you have any tips for painting at high altitudes in a very dry climate? My paints seem to dry out too fast and adding water seems to make them dry out even faster.

[@HadronFlux]

Are you using a wet palette? You can also get retarder medium to increase dry time.

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Use a wet palette, and a bigger brush, that helps massively. If the issue persists, you might want to look into mixing a a bit of retarder medium into your paints.

[@Obsrv-r]

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures I’ve never used a wet palette, I’ll give it a shot. Thanks!

[@JuanHidalgoMiniatures]

Trust me here, it's life changing, you will never go back.

[@Obsrv-r]

@@HadronFlux I’ll try that, thanks!
