Our local hobby shop did an event where they had a bucket of different Citadel paints and you had to pick out 6 at random. Using those 6 you then had to paint a model before a deadline. It was an interesting challenge and I really enjoyed it

[@dustiiyork3907]

Love this type of content. It's easy to get overwhelmed watching a KZbinr who has tons of experience use a specific paint for each little part of a model. So its nice to see that even with a starter box of paints, anyone can paint a fantastic miniature with the right skill.

[@omfgblondie]

Suggestion for another limited palette video: Put 20 or something colours on a wheel, spin it five times. Add white and black. Have fun

[@SpaghettiBelly]

Even funnier would be a smaller wheel where you can only use 2 types of brushes. *hard mode is when you add in a sweeping brush, a sponge, and making a bootleg brush wish someone's hair(pets shedding also works)*

[@DominionDee]

Yes, this!

[@NLjungberg]

I've seen soooo many videos about painting with a limited pallet and always thought "-This is not for me". After watching this video i sat down (for the first time in months) and painted a model i've been planning on painting for years. I figured since i haven't painted it yet, lets just give it a go with a limited pallet. And my god, i think its the paintjob im the most happy with since i started painting. just because you did this video, so thank you!

[@MrAndrewHowes]

This video concept is so good. It's very uplifting, given that it's how many of us started, and this ork was dope as hell

[@danielman9420]

Loved the video, Jon. And honestly, I'd love to see more takes on the "Start Painting" boxes from multiple ranges. It's always cool to watch an artist thrive with limited resources. I'm very tempted to try this process now myself 😅

[@meatybtz]

You know, I actually like that "camo green" ork skin. It actually feels vastly better than bright green or even dark green ork skin. It is almost a "classic" Tolkien orc skin color. It looks brilliant.

[@emilydowd-arrow3751]

Thanks I DID really appreciate this approach. Personally, I’m interested in a video on how to paint your D&D character without overwhelming the mini because it’s one thing to have special objects for the character and have items they’re wearing from places and encounters in the game, but another when it’s on the mini 😣

[@thekinginyellowmessiahofha6308]

It’s best to have a low level, mid level, and high level. If you use consistent colors ( brass for details, silver for metal, ect) it looks consistent and it’s easier to do. To much variety creates a muddy looking mess. Complimentary colors are also the best for clothing (red and yellow looks good.)

[@kyles8707]

I'm 42 years old and just started learning to paint minis and this was inspiring. I really enjoyed this as it showed that you don't need everything to get fantastic results. I looked at my paint collection and laughed when I saw at least 5 different browns, and I think I've only used 2 of them.

[@rogue.guineapig]

I really dig this idea… doing more with less and getting away from the “I need more paints” mentality. Also the tip about glazing the shadows is perfect!

[@rikimaru_vr]

Ya I agree I have a few different paints but most of them are limited colors in a variety of ranges for effects. Like contrast paints, kimera, scale75. I like that although I don't have 100 different colors, I do have different techniques I can use.

I've been trying to find more videos using the paints in the starter paint set but no one has one really:/

[@rikimaru_vr]

@@somedude5465 one of the best pieces of advice I heard is that recipes usually don't matter. Just use whatever colors you like in the army, the only thing that matters is writing down your procedure so you can replicate it for the whole army, but if it's hero or unique jobs just have fun with the colors at your disposal.

Big fan of this, a small problem with many paintmen on youtube (you included, sorry.) is that budget viewers are sometimes overlooked. Its hard when a tutorial is "4 easy steps to making your minis look good!" and step 1 is buy an airbrush lol. Its super useful seeing intermediate and high level techniques being done with very limited resources since for many hobbyists buying more paints/tools vs more minis is a very real choice we have to make with every purchase! Love your channel, love your content

I recently joined a “blind demon” paint competition where you chose a model and a week later you randomly grabbed four citadel paints from a bag, and having to work with only four paints and one primer color was a really fun and different experience that rekindled a lot of the fun in the hobby for me

[@FREEKILL117]

This was incredible, while I'm not confident enough to mix paints like that and keep the shades consistent - I learnt so much! I've needed a rust colour and have overlooked Mournfang Brown! And I was considering using Deathworld Forest for the base tone flesh for the upcoming Kruel Boyz and this video has helped cement that scheme for me! That final model is absolutely incredible, I love these single set paint challenges

[@j.m.4508]

Skrag brown is also a great rust/dirt effect when heavily thinned down! Combining the two would probably give ytou some really detailed rust.

[@ChazCharlie1]

Wet palettes would allow you to keep more mixed paints for longer, improving your ability to keep them consistent.

[@timokrahl5620]

That Orc-skin is fabulous. A limited palette brings things together so nicely. It´s like music. If you have all the instruments and effects at you disposal you can loose focus on what it´s all about. I´d even say that limiting a complete army paintjob to ~10 selective colors would make for a very coherent and fascinating army with your skill involved. It´s as you said with the brown tones... we all have too many of them and they just cause confusion.

[@KabinMiniatures]

That is a great deal for that "Blitz" Bowl set! Nicely done, goes to show what you can do with a limited palette, using only a little experience and creativity!

[@joejoyce1027]

Starter set painting challenges are great! Out of the box thinking with the contents of a box. Wait what? This was a great demonstration of taking what you see and sticking to it. It’s so easy to just paint by the numbers as a new painter. This helps a dudes like me get closer to what we aspire to. Confidence bolstered by possibilities. Maybe a collaboration like this seeing how your Fellow KZbin painters would have used a starter set in their way? Might Be a good excuse to eat some tendies with them too!

[@Kitzkrieg]

Suggestion: I came here from Miniac and tbh I've never done a "mini", but found the gaming side of the hobby has a lot of great tips and workarounds for the side of the hobby I am interested in, and that is tanks, aircraft and ships. Would you consider building, painting and weathering an aircraft or armor kit in a build series, and maybe even convince Scott to join in and do one on his channel? I am sure there are more of your followers who build kits from other genres in this hobby and would love to see you guys tackle this 😉😁

[@element4studios]

I'd kinda second this one. I love the stuff you guys are doing, but sprinkling in something like what Night Shift does, or Plasmo. Those guys do a nice job in that space and it would be fun to see you guys in the gaming modeling space spread out a bit! :) Keep up the good work fellas!

Great work. Totally amazed how you can take such simple tools and end up with a great result. Shows that you're talented but also that you know how to think about where and what to paint. And I suppose that's what I really enjoy about your content - the delivery is great too, but the real gravy is the advice on how to use the paints properly. Seeing you paint those volumes on his arm with the green and the yellows and then putting the accents on with the glazing was really insightful. But also understanding how all those minute details all have to tie in together to allow the mini to really pop was great information.

[@michaelcoull8590]

Love this video, and that's just a fantastic paintjob. Would love to see similar, "painting-with-a-limited-palette" style videos, especially a starter set.

Maybe the intention was to use those clippers, plastic glue, and the cheap plastic tray to model your own figure. But seriously, yes, they should have at least included a single figure.

[@Alittlefruitgoesalongway]

Um, most paint sets don't include miniatures with them, other than the occasional GW flagship-faction specific set with paints directed at a certain army and including a few models of that army. Many brands and other GW sets haven't included models because they are meant to be a low price entry point that you can use with the miniatures you like that you probably already have or bought a small cheap set of a few miniatures from the shelf next to it, again, of your choice. It would be one thing if they did just rip you off and lie about box contents, but the one little picture with a disclaimer isn't that and something that simple isn't unheard of for most products.

[@enveritas4948]

@@Alittlefruitgoesalongway It's about context. These sets are sold in book shops that probably don't have a huge range of minis for you to pick from, or maybe none at all. It's also possible that someone's first experience of the hobby would be ruined if they didn't read the smallprint and expected there to be a mini inside. Not including a single mini is a missed opportunity for GW.

Thanks jon!

[@techtruper5625]

Currently painting my whole army this way. Just started collecting and painting again after forever and don't have many paints anymore. Didn't know what color scheme to go with so I grabbed a starter paint set like that one and just went with it. Pretty fun.

[@DaBiggerDaddy]

As a beginner, I am guilty of looking at all the paints on peoples' walls, or the recommendations on the box for highlighting colour, layer colour etc. But you are right - when I didn't have the 'correct' colours and had to make my own, it was really satisfying. Adds the element of problem solving and creativeness to your paint job. Your model looks great btw.

[@AragornMJG]

Well played. Man teaching a young painter how to use a limited color palette like this is simply amazing! A+

[@patrickmcsweeney2300]

I have had similarly positive painting experience with limited paint set. When i visit my parents I have a Vallejo Game Color starter (16 colours including black, white and three metallics). I have painted 3 different blood bowl teams and each time surprised myself how quickly a paint scheme comes together with such a limited range. You do have to let the paint range choose for you some what, if your desired outcome isnt flexible you will just get frustrated. Wet pallet is essential because there is a lot of mixing and some times a need to retouch mistakes with the mixed colour later in the process.

[@mme1vis]

This is a seriously good clinic for teaching utilization of a palette over selection of colors. Killer for budget builders. Nicely done

[@MrHyonD]

It's incredible, and makes me relieved that actual colour theory is much more important than having the full citadel / army painter paint set.

[@stevewingate3023]

A great paint job with a limited palette - sometimes less is more - and it suits the subject matter 100%. I started painting with Citadel's Monster Paint Set back in the day, and it was certainly a baptism of fire.🤨 Painters should appreciate the plethora of materials available to them in this day and age, techniques have evolved, and the standard has improved exponentially, plus there was no internet to watch great painting tutorials like this. Anyway, I digress. Thanks for a crackin' tutorial, and I appreciate the time and effort taken to produce it. Every day's a school day.

I really wanted to try mini painting, so after having watched tons of videos making a list of what to get, I on summer vacation walked into the closest store which had warhammer stuff and paints because I want to get into the hobby. I did not expect that this was literally the single biggest mini painting store in the region, bigger than any in my country or any of the neighboring countries stores. HUUUGE warehouse filled with mini painting stuff. Many long walls filled with paints, brushes accessories and all the stuff you could ever need. Me having zero clue what colors I need or what paint scheme I want, walked around the store for hours looking at what to get, I settled on the 40k paint tool set, and the orruk starter set as well as some army painter tools, Tamiya extra thin, and a bunch more stuff I really don’t need until after I have figured out if I enjoy the hobby or not. I spent a few hundred $ on tons of stuff I probably don’t need because various KZbinrs said this is great, buy this, everyone needs this. Now I have a few basic colors, some obscure colors and a few duplicates, as well as tons of useless gear: Black, White, 2 identical Red, Blue, Yellow, zombie green, greenish brown, reddish brown, neon green translucent, 2x identical weathering brown, black texture paint, brown texture paint, and 4 metallics. Specifically: 2x Mephiston Red Abbadon Black Corax White Macragge Blue Averland Sunset Orruk Flesh Steel Legion Drab Bugman’s Glow 2x Leadbelcher Runefang Steel Runelord Brass Retributor Armour 2x Agrax Earthshade Tesseract Glow Astrogranite Stirland Mud TL;DR make a very specific list of the bare minimum you need to paint, and do not buy any of the other stuff until you are certain that you enjoy the hobby. Or else you’ll end up sending tons of money on random stuff you have no need for yet, and if you decide this hobby isn’t for you, most of that money is lost because resale value is low. Now I’ll just have to hope I enjoy mini painting when I get home, or else I’ve waste hundreds of dollars.

[@SH43418]

This was the paint set I started with. The Corax White was a dried out clumpy mess, eventually months later I replaced it. No amount of retarder or water would bring it back to life. I've spent a lot of money on paint since but I'm having fun. I branched out from GW and now have the whole Scale75 metallic range. I have 2 bottles of Vallejo primer that I don't even use. White and black spray cans of Army Painter primer which is how I prime everything now. I don't really ever plan on playing the game. I just like the lore and visual appeal of the models. It's something I do to relax and it's a new skill set for me. Which helps utilize parts of my brain that I haven't used in such a matter before. I have found that it helps with my mental health. Also why I recently started learning a foreign language and study it on a daily basis,it seems to help also.

I have a trio of orcs that I haven't got past the base of the skin for yet so this is actually a perfectly timed video! Thank you for existing! We appreciate you. Also.... get that window fixed! Thanks again for your work! Xxx

Love this format. Orks are my favorite and this was a great example of how to make them look great! Showing that its possible to complete a paint job that looks this good with limited paints is really cool.

I've rarely see an orc skin like that, that's just excellent. The tone and all the variations you put in it made it awesome. I'll definitely try that! Thanks for your work!

I’d use the bright red to do a dot for a laser targeter on the bit below the barrel. Amazing work, btw. So much variety with so little!

The last time I tried an experiment like this, was back in 1992 with the citadel mail in offer you got a terminator and I think an old monopose ork. It was fun with a limited color palette..

I haven't done the same as you, but I did get into painting with a limited palette. Like you said, it works really well for browns. Fantastic result on the ork, it's insane to think you've used that amount of paints for that result
