LOTR: Shrinking the Epic to 10mm!

[@Wake-Less]

Believe my last comments got deleted because of my store link 😅 Nice video. I loved your use of light blue and the paint scheme for the fountain guard. For those interested, there is a free army list for this army compatible with warmaster revolutions on my gumroad.

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Ah that explains it! Thank you, Im really glad you like the video and the paint scheme, the fountain guard are my favourite of your sculpts. They're all amazing tbf. I will be checking out that army list myself :)

This sums up why I always loved the Epic Scale 40k (back in the day). I used to see people skirmishing with 20 dudes and a tank around a ruined church and thinking.... 'Thats not an 'army' mate, give me a thousand dudes...and a titan, thats an army!'. Plus, like you, I used to love trying to get as much detail as possible in to those tiny tiny miniatures!

[@TheWizardsBrush]

[@jonbarnes2424]

Brilliant job, I'm a fan of MESBG and used to like Warmaster. One bit of advice for anyone painting a Warmaster army is to only paint the front of the front rank and back of the back rank on each base, and just do the tops of the obverse sides. It saves loads of time and you won't even see the legs on the "inside" of the bases.

Years ago I made a Macedonian/Seleucid army for Warmaster Ancients in 6mm scale. It’s still one of my favorite armies to display and look at - almost 100 soldiers in a single tightly packed phalanx unit just gives you a sense of scale on a completely different level! Really loved seeing a LOTR army at this scale! Also enjoyed your sense of humor. Glad I got recommended this video!

@@TheWizardsBrush Army looks something like: 6 units of Phalanx 2 units of medium infantry 1 unit of Hoplites 3 units of cavalry 4 units of assorted skirmishers Couple of command units It’s pretty close to 1000 mini miniatures in what would be the equivalent of a medium sized Warhammer army! Sounds like hell to paint, but 6mm is actually quite forgiving and easy to make it look good! Though I did also get sick of painting brown, just like you. Too many spears!

[@AdrianHague]

Nice work, I admire your commitment! One thing I have found useful is to try and identify which parts of the model are hardest to reach with a brush and paint those areas first. It doesn't really matter too much if you get paint on other areas at this stage as they adjacent areas will be painted over at a later stage. I generally first try painting a single section/ group to completion (as a 'prototype'), then apply the lessons learned during that process to the rest of the batch-painted army.

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Well said, starting with the spears for instance might have been better using that method. I could have spent more time on the prototype stage for them, would have helped. Thank you for watching and commenting 😊 🙏

To paint the trees on the shields you could use piece of sponge or leather to just dab the paint. Much faster. To apply the little grass tufts, use tweezers. To make every step easier, use magnifying lenses or glasses. Also, if you had stuck to the canon colours, it all would be much easier, so you dug yourself into a hole there.

A tip for fine detail work. I nicked the tweezers from my computer tool kit. What makes them better is they are spring loaded shut so that you have to squeeze to open them. Which means you can focus on getting stuff into place without having to keep the pressure up on the grip. Makes things a little easier and faster for placing detailed stuff on models, bases or what ever.

10mm is a nice size :) I decided after I started a force for Balin's Expedition, that it would be way cooler to do them in 10mm, basically base them individually on 20mm bases, so using the same rules and measurements etc. but it means I can make the scenery of Moria look absolutely huge, without actually having to build a new room onto my house...

Excellent work (and a funny, informative and well-produced video). A 10mm Top-Tip though mate (probs too late now though in fairness) - concentrate on the front of one rank and the rear of the other, as the opposite sides of both won't be seen when they are based and so any time spent painting them is a waste (thinking here of things like the shields and such on any of the wee chaps that are in the rear rank and not at one end).

So many games like this, 40k, wfb etc all make so much more sense to me at this scale. They’re supposed to be epic battles over vast terrain and that sense of scale works so much better for me with 6-10mm figures. Plus it’s just much more practical and easier to work with in most cases. I’m surprised this isn’t more of a thing.😊

Same! I stopped playing warhammer but am hesistant to get back in because of the storage required. But playing it at 10mm? That would make it so much easier! And haven't even thought abuot achieving the epic scale of the timeperiod with the smaller scale a lot easier!

[@lilpain1997]

A huge part of the hobby is kit bashing and painting so it makes sense that this isn't as big in the hobby. Its still big enough though as epic scale is still a thing and on table it looks great seeing so many in a war. Also painting all of these even though they are small is a nightmare... I would much prefer to paint my standard size mini. Which is already annoying depending on pose if you fully assemble it or not

Great video! In the future, have them printed with a 5mm gap and light supports at an angle, don't cure them with supports, with hot water and the right settings they peel off like butter! But then you have to cure them.

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Thank you!! 😊 Agreed, definitely the best way! I didn't print these myself. My printer is out of action atm unfortunately.

[@MagisterMagnificum]

THE DARKNESS WILL CONSUME YOU! Excellent roleplaying.

[@TheWizardsBrush]

😄 🤣 thank you 🙏

Great job, might try out 10mm lotr myself. Btw, holy shit thank you for making the mistake with priming in humid weather. For over 10 years of painting miniatures I've had no idea this could happen, now I know to be careful xD

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Thank you 😊 🙏 Yeah I thought I would include that to save anyone else the pain 😬 however one person in the comments here said that it was most likely the primer itself (it is a cheap primer) and that humidity should help rather than hinder. There are conflicting reports on this subject

[@njbolt90]

I love that 64k people have watched a video where the voiceover is about how boring this was. The hobby is unmatched. Great video!

[@TheWizardsBrush]

😄 🤣 ah th hobby. I didn't think of it like that when I was making it but yeah I see that 🤣 who knew that 64k people would listen to me moan for half an hour. thank you 😊 🙏

I find painting a “Kill Team” awesomely tedious - can’t believe your amazing effort. Now that’s done - how about the Battle of Helms Deep in 10mm (both sides plus the Keep and mountain), ypu know, just for something to do on a lazy sunday afternoon ? 😜 Seriously, amazing work with such tiny detail 😁🇦🇺👍

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Honestly all painting has a small (or large) amount of tedium built in, its worth it though in the end. Oh god, what are you trying to do to me 😂 Great idea. maybe. hmmm. it would be epic. damn you. doable in a casual 4000 afternoons. Cheers for watching and commenting! 🙂

Hugely enjoyable video mate, definitely got yourself a subscriber and a like from this. Also made me really want to get back to painting my SAGA warband tbh...

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Thank you 😊 🙏 ah that's great! Glad to have you on board. I've not heard of SAGA?

[@Malus131]

@@TheWizardsBrush So it's a historical rule set for dark ages/medieval skirmishes, mainly using Gripping Beast miniatures. I actually stumbled onto them through a mixture of Warhammer Fantasy dying right as I was going to get back into it, and 40K being just a *tad* pricey.

[@TheWizardsBrush]

@@Malus131 that sounds really cool! I'll have a look at that

[@MasterHarringui]

Amazing vid man, u just create me another necesity in my life: 10mm rhun and far harad army. Thank youn't

[@TheWizardsBrush]

😄 🤣 I'm glad have awoken something in you... enjoy! There's definitely easterlings available, I don't know if there's harad yet on wakes, but I think there are other proxies available 😀

[@PossMcLeod]

They all look SOOOO good! All those little details just add up hey, amazing! Love the basing in particular, and those tufts of grass looked like a nightmare, but so worth! One point tho, what happens when they have to fight on stone or in the sand?? Going to have to redo all their bases to get rid of the grass?? haha

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Thank you 😊 🙏 Yeah I've since been using tweesers for the tufts, helps immensely. 😄 🤣 the thought of changing the bases for every different setting hurts my brain 😄 👏 I really appreciate your sub 🙏 I've been asked a few times and I am considering a battle report of some kind yes

[@PossMcLeod]

@@TheWizardsBrush haha indeedy. And yeah, defs keen to see you kick the bearded mates ass! haha. Does he have a channel? Would be keen to see how his painting went.

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Yeah Jmacs vid is linked at the end or tbf here's a link - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWSoq5x7ebt_jaMsi=gX4qZ0OCOX8VGbcw

@@TheWizardsBrush Champion. Will check it out.

[@brunopastor9508]

sick, although as an epic scale painter and player I would recomend to have a try at oil washes and those little sponges for eye makeup.

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Yeah ive been wanting to give oil washes a try for ages, I will have a go on the next one. Thank you 🙏

[@Vasagata]

Looks amazing

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Thank you 🙏 😊

[@James-qz4nt]

The army looks great. Use tweezers to apply the tufts! Saves ages.

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Thank you! Your the second person to say that so will definitely be using them next time

[@markpullan3202]

10mm is such a great scale. Been playing WW2 and Cold War in it for a few years now. Not done Fantasy yet, but it sure looks good.

[@TheWizardsBrush]

Ah nice I bet WW2 in 10mm is great fun!
