Nemesis: Lockdown - How To Speed Paint - Larvae

Episode 1 - Speed Painting Larva minis from Nemesis: Lockdown by Awaken Realms.
I wanted to make a quick and easy guide for painting the figures up in this awesome game. All six can be batch painted at the same time and can easily be completed in a day.

Amazing. I've been waiting for so long for someone really talented to make a tutorial on painting Nemesis. And here you are. Great tutorial.

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Oh wow, that’s high praise indeed. I hope I live up to your expectations. The Nightstalkers will be mostly speed paint jobs but the characters will get the traditional base n layer approach I think.

[@krissiewright3413]

Looks fantastic. You make the process so easy to follow. I generally use contrasts just to make board game minis look better than blobs of grey plastic and I love that you show what can be achieved when primarily using them.

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Aw thank you so much for that Krissie. Painted figures roll better too and it really doesn’t take too much effort to really push those results up a notch.

[@MrMagicchrisi]

Very nice tutorial! Looking forward for the whole series 👏

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Excellent, glad you enjoyed it. They’ll be a little sporadic in the frequency but I will get them all done eventually.

[@martinscandling3063]

Great content, excellent tutorial and very well put together!

[@BrushWoodMinis]

My dude, thank you so much!

[@jeroendriehuis1740]

Great job!

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Thank you my friend 🤗

[@Xardas-Tabletop-Welt663]

Echt Nice :)

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Thank you kindly 😊

[@OrdoHeretycus]

Очень круто!Спасибо!

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Thank you and you’re welcome ☺️

[@tunio8281]

I was looking for many ideas how to pint it, and your video is a jackpot for me. I have also all paint because I am painting 40k Deathguards :p I hope You will make videos for the rest of aliens from lockdown

[@BrushWoodMinis]

That’s great to hear Tunio and thank you. I’m certainly planning to make videos for the others, time permitting. Currently working on the Lab Rat, she’s nearly done and will be the next video in the series. Thank you again and good luck with your Deathguards 👍🏻

[@tunio8281]

@@BrushWoodMinis Other characters also coming?

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Oh yes. Eventually it’ll be all the characters and the intruders from the core box. 😊

[@Galahax]

You're back! I was just wondering where you went! Just got through the heroquest minis finally. Good vid here! You are back, right? Any other games youve got lined up or just sticking with Nemesis for now?

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Haha, yeah I AM back & thanks btw. I’ve got a baby on the way so things may be a touch sporadic but the plan is to get Nemesis done alongside Frosthaven’s mercs and possibly a few more MCP figs.

[@Galahax]

@@BrushWoodMinis congrats!

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Thanks, it’s our first so learning on the fly and there’s a lot of change going on in the background.

[@kenbould7519]

Hi BrushWood Minis. I completed the lab rat and the larvae. Can I upload them some where for you and who ever to look at? Any word on continuing the painting tutorials? I would love the see what you do for the hero minis. Really looking forward to continuing the project.

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Hi Ken, sorry for the delay. Feel free to upload them over on my Facebook page in the comments, or just tag me on Instagram with the pics and I’ll see ‘em. The other tutorials will be coming eventually though I’ve no idea when at the moment. My wife just had our first child and we’re very much dealing with the massive responsibility on a day by day basis.

[@kenbould7519]

@@BrushWoodMinis oh wow, congrats!! A very exciting time for you I'm sure. Our oldest just graduated with his doctorates in physical therapy and our youngest is doing his internship out in San Francisco for the next 3 months but I remember the beginning very well. :) Very exciting time for you and your wife. Lots of sleepless nights and no more free time. Lol 🤣 all worth it though. My best to you and your wife.

[@amorbavian]

​@BrushWood Minis Congrats on becoming a father - and good luck with the hobby, my activity in the painting and playing hobby dropped by 90% after we had a kid lol

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Thank you Amorbavin, I appreciate it. Yeah outputs definitely dried up like an old citadel paint pot at the mo. It may end up a long old sabbatical but I paint my own figs, no commercial promos. Therefore as I’m a stickler for not playing with grey I’m gonna have to get them done if I ever want to game again 😆 One day I’ll finish this series.

[@amorbavian]

@@BrushWoodMinis it's easier while they're babies and sleeping a lot - at least during the day lol My daughter is 3 now and it's difficult to paint when you can't get time to paint in peace because they want attention. With this game I've decided to give them Zenithal, Drybrush, and lots of wash, just haven't decided which color scheme, and a touch up drybrush again. Should look like the Watch it Paint channel did for the original Nemesis which is a quick but good look!

[@attiladukai2121]

Now I am planing to buy contrast paints...

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Thank you so much. They’re a great tool to have in your painting arsenal 👍🏻

[@attiladukai2121]

@@BrushWoodMinis did you tried vallejos new speed paint?

[@BrushWoodMinis]

No I haven’t tried them yet. Heard good things though.

[@attiladukai2121]

I'm not into contrast. But this is amazing.

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Aw thanks Attila. I’m of the opinion that, like all good tools, they have their uses. Certainly aren’t my “go-to” paints but are fantastic for quick results like this and terrain. Glad you like it anyway.

[@alphabet3578]

Can u do for the adult or queen one plss?

[@BrushWoodMinis]

They are coming, have no fear… We’ll except for them of course 😃

[@akihikino5061]

I cant do the saliva thing with the glue it keeps turning into a drop instead of a slime sticking from one side to another. What am i doing wrong?

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Ooh that’s surprising. Are you definitely using the UHU glue? It’s the only one I’ve tried but always had success with it. I’d suggest making sure there’s enough on the cocktail stick to form the string and just persevere. Sorry I can’t be more helpful than that.

[@akihikino5061]

@BrushWoodMinis yes I make sure I put plenty and it is uhu glue, it's the all purpose adhesive uhu glue

[@BrushWoodMinis]

@akihikino5061 I’m genuinely perplexed on that one, sorry I can’t be more help. As you can see in the vid, the technique I used with it has always worked for me. Sorry you’re having issues with it.

[@akihikino5061]

@BrushWoodMinis it's all good I'll figure it out

[@mandarinas364]

this minis are horrible

[@BrushWoodMinis]

Do you mean quality wise, because I completely agree if so. Hence speed painting as a quick get over.
