SPARTANS!!! How to paint WarGods Spartans.

[@Falpastymonster]

The amount of quotes during this was outstanding

[@DuncanRhodesDRPA]

We tried lol

[@OldManRogers]

@@DuncanRhodesDRPA Every time you say 'apply 2 thin coats' you should do the CSI:Miami rimshot sound effect

[@avitod3782]

I loved the quotes

[@jacksenization]

me : accidentally spills nuln oil miniatures : "then we will fight in the shade"

[@christopherpeery7436]

🤣

[@wargamesgeek1334]

Brilliant 👍

[@GoingOffTopical]

Men of Trachis: you fools, I apply so much paint I obscure my details Dienekes: good, then we will fight with the shade

[@brianroe1474]

Wargods is a really solid game. Each of the units strongly reflect the mythology without being stuffy. It hearkens back to the days of "BIG GAMING", when a battlefield has troops, monsters, and special characters that all have a role to play in the battle. And it creates epically beautiful battles once all the miniatures are on the board. Brilliant painting and tutorial as always Duncan.

[@Tremadog102]

Our memes will blot out the sun! Best video since the Metalica Skitarii. These videos entertain as much as they inform and I love it. 🙂

[@ethanmlife]

a) I love all your references b) I love this edit with the names of everything I need. c) I love how clear and concise you are in your instructions thank you

[@mattr9509]

This video could have not come at a more perfect time. I am about to start on 40 chaos marauders and can use alot of these techniques. With them being such an old sculpt it has been hard to find an updated tutorial so I'm very thankful for this one. Thank you Duncan!

[@cleews_]

Duncan... the quotes here are fantastical. I Luv you 3000.

[@zombi303]

I was searching for how to do an effective bronze - I now have my answer. In Duncan we trust!

[@DuncanRhodesDRPA]

Awesome

[@rrekrut]

Great tutorial! I have a unit of these guys and can’t wait to paint them up. Crocodile’s minis have just the right amount of detail that makes painting them a pleasure. Just gotta finish my Corinthians and Amazons first.

[@PandorasStar]

Fantastic work as always buddy!! Love that you get to paint what you enjoy, and I it is so kind to get those independent model makers recognition!

[@MrDarkdragon141]

Hey Duncan! Got a request for a painting tutorial request. If you also received any of the NCR Troopers / units from the Fallout Wasteland Warfare's new Mojave wave, I would love to see how you would paint one of them up! :D

[@jasons.2807]

ONE THICK COAT??? THIS IS MADNESSS!!! Blasphemy!!!

[@johnharvath2522]

You never fail to amaze Duncan!!! Awesome miniature and music!👍🤘

[@ladyterra480]

I'm so glad to see Wargods get some love! Do you have any plans on painting other factions or the demigods (probably not Hecate on KZbin because of her NSFW design)?

[@_ClericalError_]

Oh man, all of those 300 references, beautiful sir!

[@onezerotwo]

Great Minotaurs painting guide, Boss! ;)

perfect spartan warrior !!! excellent work and paint !!! ΕΔΩ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΣΠΑΡΤΗ !!!

[@damianlz]

Thank you thank you thank you for painting a smaller studiio. Can i also highly suggest this what's war.

[@Thorolf_Sigvald]

Thanks for the vid' Pun Master, amazing work again. I may have some requests, I would love to see a guide on the Grim Hammers (Erebor warriors). I started an army but don't know how to give them a grim look on their armor, and battle worn, chipped. Also in a few days I'll receive my kit to make a Black Templar Crusader squad (:D), but I wonder, how I can get nice and clean white robes ? what shade should I use ? Cheers from France!

[@stuartmitchell6991]

[@dannyneumann3086]

hope you make same painting videos of the new Soulblight Gravlords when they are released 😉

[@Iceeagle85]

Glorious video. Could you perhaps paint some miniatures from Burrows & Badgers?

[@martinjrgensen8234]

Lovely miniature. I have looked at their Amazon range which I am pondering getting.

[@horuslupercal5941]

Duncan you are the best

[@freedom784]

Videos alway go too quickly for me haha. Fantastic work Duncan! Would love to see how you do the new 30k Word Bearer Preator model 😁

[@KabinMiniatures]

Must have been fun to write the script for this one! 😄

[@GamingMediocrity]

Give Northumbrian Tin Soldier a try, Duncan. Beautiful quirky fantasy models with lots of character.

[@frostphoenyx]

Stunning work.

Nice! I was just looking for a good video on how to paint gold.

[@breadpirateoverhere]

Somebody calculate the jokes per minute in this one. Duncan was on fire.

[@EdwardWB97]

Ah yes, I'll be definitely using this for 100% legit spartans *stares in lamenter*

[@donaldkelly9833]

Another grade video, thanks team!

[@Nelchao]

Nice video Duncan. Quick question, how do you wash your tile and remove the paint? Cheers!

[@mouseketeery]

It just washes/scrapes off with ordinary dish soap, provided you use a tile with a smooth glossy finish - the acrylic in the paint has nothing to 'grab onto' to properly stick.

[@loupiscanis9449]

Thank you , DRPA .

[@dannyboy5514]

Pun game on point for this one guys haha!

[@AzraelThanatos]

I'm not entirely sure if I like the shield. Seems almost like to much of a bronze thing there, and there's the more common thing with spartan shields in things for the bright red lambda on either bronze or black.

[@howleyheellibot]

Duncan I am begging you, please make a Frank Horrigan painting tutorial, I gotta see that model painted exquisitely.

[@frapapcgaming]

Leonidas would be proud!

[@ramza813]

Outro music rocks!

[@TheSlamburger]

Many, many years ago, when Persia came ashore...

[@ARIES5342]

Do you ever not fully assemble a figure before painting? That shield looks like it is in the way. Some of your other works look like some bits are in the way too. Also, do you wash your minis prior to prime and paint? Adam

[@gamesplayedpoorly8633]

Very cool

[@makrofel9617]

Hi, can you pain a Alpha Legion Space Marine? Good video!

[@DuncanRhodesDRPA]

You may want to check out our Academy (ducnanrhodes.com), we have a full tutorial on there 😊

[@thuggishcone1392]

Great for my Minotaur army

[@ccreevan]

Still kinda chilly outside. The frost, sometimes it makes the paint stick.

[@kacperrobertsson4855]

Do you guys have a tutorial on the Horticulous Slimux model on your website?

[@TheLordUrban]

Love this game I encourage anyone with interest in mythology to check it out.

[@DuncanRhodesDRPA]

Agreed

All hail DRPA… Never retreat never surrender

Can you do a Black ark corsairs paint guide?

[@roberts.lamborn7461]

I think painting the Landa symbol in red for a striking balance.

[@georger9842]

when's the snyder cut of this video coming out?

[@vulkan7800]

You painted spartans now paint Wargames Atlantic Persians lol. still havent had any idea how to paint the patterns on their armor

[@ComratZeUbermensch]

How many armies do you have in total, across all game systems?

[@DuncanRhodesDRPA]

Mmm...plenty. 40K, 30K, Historical French, WW2 Germans, AoS, OldHammer, Skyrim, Fallout, Flames of War....tons lol

I left my entire paint collection in my car one summer and none of the paints have been the same since. Its rather unfortunate. but even new I was never able to use water to get my paint to that level of creamy.

It looks like the army painter brand. I have the same one.

@@darrenj3720 as do I, just curious because as it is a fairly small one though Duncan seems to also paint only a few models at a time with similar colors. I usually manage 3-4 different models on it

Hmm... just had a look at Wargods... quite expensive for what they are, especially compared to the likes of Warlord, Frostgrave etc etc... which have superior detail... And why oh why did you paint the spearhead in Silver 🤦🤦

Comments on? Acknowledging competition exists for something other than lawsuits? Nani?!?

[@s.w.4409]

I wish the 300 inspiration wouldn't be so obvious with this models... The helmet and shields are 1:1 ripoffs... :(

[@miguelortiz3836]

The helmets are the same of the standard greek hoplites, the only thing that are directly from the movie are the Speedo like things instead of a cloth skirt and the "V" (lambda) sculpted on the shield which were normally painted on along with other designs but Spartans did use it and sometimes sculpted them. It is really hard to go wrong with Greek hoplites. They had a look that has become very generic in minis.

[@s.w.4409]

@@miguelortiz3836 I agree, the speedo thing probably ruins the design for me, I'd probably sculpt them some kilts or something with greenstuff. The only thing I would say is that the helmet is the exact same design from the movie. I've never seen a histological example of a corinthian helmet with that visor looking triangle at the forehead that extents so far to the top.

[@miguelortiz3836]

@@s.w.4409 I think that helmets are kind of pointy looking but sincerely I just imagined it was just a side effect of the heroic scale and the exaggerated features they get rather than a reference to the movie. I mean I have nothing against 300 but I do know that it isn't historically accurate by any stretch XD.

[@s.w.4409]

@@miguelortiz3836 Yeah, it doesn't really bother me that it's not historicaly accurate but rather that the "inspiration" is so blatantly clear...
