[@Grymbaldknight]

... does this mean that there are more Battle Reports on the way? The Midwinter Minis Bat-Reps are the best on KZbin: simple, well-edited, dynamic, and short enough that they never feel stodgy. I absolutely cannot wait to see more of them - especially of your 500pt games. :)

[@Grymbaldknight]

@@DoubleDowner Midwinter Minis has several Battle Reports. :) Half of them are in the "Start Collecting Deathmatch" series, wherein the different Start Collecting boxed armies are pitted against each other in an arena tournament. There are also several 500pt Bat-Reps, which are standard 40k games. These aren't in any particular order or series, but are just fun, snappy games with great editing. I personally prefer the standard 500pt games, because it's fun to see what both players can bring to the table on such a modest "budget". Small games require more ingenuity, i find, and the armies feel a lot more dynamic and characterful. I recommend the Midwinter Minis "Ultramarines vs Necrons 500pts Battle Report" as a good starting point, but i cannot recommend the "Start Collecting Death-Match" series highly enough as well. Please, please watch both. :)

[@timbe7979]

I never was interested in warhammer but those battle reports are convincing me to try it out one day.

[@madMARTYNmarsh1981]

What is it about watching someone else paint that makes me want to break out my miniatures and my paintbrushes?

[@grud8495]

This is what I love about the drukhari range. They are very detailed, so you can pick out a lot of individual areas on them. However, you can just as easily paint them in a very basic, quick army painter style scheme, and they will still look great! Not many miniature ranges have that benefit, so my hat goes off to the designer (Jes Goodwin) and sculpters of this range.

[@Gingerbread22]

Same and thematically they would ride out with such a wild mess of colors. So skys the limit on what color themes you want to do with Drukhari. I keep wanting to buy into them just for the models. Also, speeders are so cool.

[@VAB0L0]

I've still got my my issue of White Dwarf #370 where they have an interview with Jes Goodwin about the "new" Dark Eldar range, and the amount of thought that was put into the design is fantastic

Thank you, buddy. I accidentally found your channel 2 weeks ago. And I fell in love with painting thanks to your videos. Today I painted my first figure! It was gretchin! I'm very grateful to you for this inspiration and really good advice. Only one minus in this hobby is very, very expensive in my country :D

[@baudsp]

"I wanted a fast color scheme" ends up with a scheme that requires multiple layers. Looks sick though

Thanks to your videos i took the plunge and painted my first model this week, using you speed painting orks as a guide and it turned out .... not great but not certainly not bad either so ty!

[@MagatsuNimura]

We both became fathers roughly at the same time, so my hobby time it's been almost non existent this last few weeks, and for some reason, It's more satisfying than the usual to see you put paint on some minis. Also, I know this is a weird "compliment", but your videos are the only ones I really like to watch at normal speed. For the last couple years, I watch everything at 1.5x speed or 1.75x speed, but with your videos, I really want to experience the whole thing hahaha I hope your babies are good, as well as Penny, and you guys are resting enough and having a great time together

[@Selzor]

Hey where did you think the twins came from

[@jugglervr]

Ah yeah, I've used automotive primer for ages, since a thread on DakkaDakka I think. re: the camera not picking up how pink it is, it's because current capture technology doesn't have a large enough color gamut to capture all of the light waves. I recall a youtube video I saw years ago on this "pinkest pink" pigment and its properties.

[@Numerlon]

re pink: sadly, the 'colour deficiency' of the capture technology isn't even that small. lots of really vibrant colours we can perceive are just so wonky on camera. Half of the warcolours vibrant paints fall into this category. In essence, our cameras are basically colourblind
