Legion - Speed Painting Stormtroopers

[@DarthVincentiusOfficial]

White primer and Nuln Oil over the bits that need black or detail and they are done. This method I find so counter intuitive. Painting grey figures black, then grey, then off white, then back to black details.....

So I gotta say, I think I’m gonna prefer your method for the priming and basecoat. I’ve done 1 squad that was primed white and then filled in with black and the most frustrating thing is getting the helmet detail to look good. I often have to go back X times to touch up areas that I screwed up trying to get the detail in. The whole reason I didn’t do prime black to begin with was I was worried that the white would be toned down a lot, but seeing what u have done and w the grey basecoat definitely looks good.

Another thing I like to do, for Stormtroopers as portraited in Ep. IV, is to paint a clear gloss over the armor parts to give them that shiny hard armor look. But, I also, always start with black primer.

I was worried priming in black and went with white for one of my sets. Think I will give the black primer on the next set!!

I expect a new outro song to every video now cause that was fantastic

[@timothybeebe6382]

Excellent work on the mini. Intimidating!

[@choassassin]

Nicely done. Looking forward to playing the game myself.

[@shadowqueen1701]

What i do is grey primer and when that is dry I use white at an angle then I do a dark grey with a black wash

[@yaboimartin6438]

Just ordered my starter set and one squad is definitely gonna look like this

[@nikvernon4251]

Nice! My plan was to white prime, hit the details with a dark grey, then a diluted nuln oil to darken them. This turned out really well though; making me rethink it. Then again, I already have 3 squads primed white so... I'd love to see how you speedpaint Rebels. I still don't have much of a plan for them yet.

[@FinestImp]

Great video! When will you be painting Darth?

[@imperialadvisoraremheshvau3788]

Decent speed paint. Which ones will you spend more time on?

[@Crabbok]

I spent more time on the speeder bikes but didn't record them - sometimes I just want to relax and paint without a camera. I will showcase them at some point.

[@SteveSpikes]

@Crabbok, awesome tutorial. This coming from someone who has never painted miniatures. This is one of the reasons I was leaning against getting into LEGION, albeit a little misguided. Thanks for the tutorial. I may rethink my decision.

[@mattdowner7779]

Crabbok can you do an Armada video explain victory points?

[@MasterJediDude]

What GW white paint was that?

[@michaelmauro442]

Fantastic tutorial! That looks amazing for the amount of time spent in painting. I can't wait to give the technique a shot. Also, the theme song at the end borders on genius. 😀

[@andrewbeach9097]

Great tips. Thanks.

[@zachturner6299]

thanks for these tips!

[@capuchango]

Damed now i have that song stuck in my head lol

[@MarkLee-fh6cd]

I wouldn't have primed them black, especially if it's supposed to be a speed paint. A lot simpler ways to get more effective results.

[@svitakis19]

Blast em! Then do a stormtrooper dance, lol.

[@carlosnava6220]

Nice vídeo, all the tutorials expect that You were a profesional painter and You don't. Thanks

[@nikkibaugher542]

Meh....

[@bageldrone]

Don’t prime in black!!!

[@bageldrone]

Alasdair Mackenzie black primer drybrushed looks terrible, you have to apply tons of white in order to get it opaque

[@catherinenyxsera]

Good stuff. Need all the painting help I can get. Of course my core set arrived yesterday, so mission this weekend is to get glue and paint.
