Stealing NMM | Dominion: Yndrasta The Celestial Spear | Age of Sigmar

[@LylaMev]

Did you get the new box set? What are your thoughts so far!?

[@thomasjones3221]

I have mine ordered

[@SugarCandyMiniatures]

Can't wait to pick it up and get some orks!

[@casperchow5024]

Im getting The Kruleboyz! They look great!

[@Keltik0ne]

It's a decent box, the models are a lot crisper in detail than I expected, though the trade off is there's some really fragile bits. Also, watching this makes me wish I'd tried NMM, although this model looks amazing in TMM too. Also,(pt 2:) good job.

[@nanakakitano9724]

Just started building mine, got Yndrasta built so far and really impressed with the miniature, although definitely one to approach carefully, so many fragile bits on there

[@Topsipopsi]

The fact that you pick out colours from an artpiece as sort of a "digital palette" is soooo satisfying.

[@protanomania7284]

you made NMM more approachable. great vid!

[@LylaMev]

That is my goal!

[@Izzyspaintingworkshop]

Yo! That trick with the coffee filters is clutch!! Great video as always!

[@LylaMev]

Thank you!

[@jessicaschoen6647]

I've gotta say, I'll be using the coffee filters instead of construction paper the next time I need leaves. Your base work here was fantastic and it follows a lot of what I know to be good basing process. You've looked at where the model appears to be set and further fleshed out the story of that location.

[@TomSamouraiVideos]

So much love in that base. Congratulations, beautiful paintjob!

[@TheBlondiekitten]

The coffee filter tip is brilliant! Thank you 🥰🌟⭐️🤩✨💫

[@paintandplayminis328]

Wow! At this point in my mini painting hobby, Im not ready to try these techniques, but it still inspires me. I like that you explain this like a science. Well done!

[@dc345601]

This was awesome, thank you for the video! I loved the coffee filter tip and the green stuff world punch!

[@LetholdusKaspyr]

Fist video of yours I've seen. Subscribed! Very educational. It broke me out of my usual way of thinking. When you were doing the wings, I was nearly crying and screaming "Y NO DRYBRUSH?!"

[@LylaMev]

I normally would have, but again, I didn't have the time to risk it not going well!

[@jefferymartens6303]

What a great paint job and process! Bravo!

[@Gamma5232]

I really liked the basing techniques! Using coffee filters and a stamp for leaves are something I'd never seen before, I'll need to try that out!

[@meyrrr007]

loved the base technique.. Will definitely use it on future projects. Great video.

[@Nortonius_]

Really interesting to see the digital side on the tablet for planning your painting. Very cool! Can’t remember seeing that before. Thanks!

Ok so that tip for making leaves is insanely cool 😎

[@LylaMev]

Thank you!

[@SugarCandyMiniatures]

@@LylaMev yeah I want to try that one out

[@asafoetidajones8181]

If you can't get ahold of an appropriately scaled leaf punch, you might have luck with snipping bits from a *snowflake* punch, which is much more common. I find them at goodwill often.

[@caseyfrechette]

I like the Yndrasta fig. I think GW is at least sort of moving in the right direction with their female sculpts. I love how much color you push into your gold nmm. I want to be that gutsy too, for some reason gold makes me kinda sheepish and reserved about sneaking in some color. My Kimera sets are on their way, can't wait to see them. Was stoked to see you trying them and commenting on how helpful they were. Thanks too for sharing your thought process on how to spend your limited time, and where you wished you had had more time to invest but chose not to. It's starting to feel like the bulk of my decision making process painting a model is just deciding what's going to be good enough and doesn't need a zillion more hours, lol.

[@Curran_Kleen_Brown]

This is a fantastic Yndrasta! I like the Gold NMM, the magenta shadows make it definitely look like the cover art. 😎

[@Azlaak]

I totally get the pressure of time versus quality ! I had to paint Yndrasta for display quality in a week to have it ready for display at my local game store and even though I spent a good 20 hours on it, I couldn’t get the freehand on the cape as good as I wanted it!! You did great tho and also record a video for us! Cheers !

[@cordial001]

Awesome job. I absolutely love how it came out. Just got my new AoS box today and I'm looking forward to painting her myself

[@philurbaniak1811]

This came out absolutely stunning and I feel like I'm learning so much about colour from you! Thank you Lyla! 😊👍

[@GronkGames]

That's beautifully done. Liked and Subbed. I have Dominion and inspired by your colour choices.

[@cbarhero]

love the moss and leaves that were added, super cool. Im going to try that when I get my swampy boys

[@RFDHobby]

Another amazing video Lyla. Thank you!

[@appledornart2535]

Very nicely done! Especially for the quick turnaround. I'm planning to make a display piece out of my yndrasta, and this has given me some ideas. I want to use the core rules arwork as my inspiration as well.

[@LylaMev]

I've wish they had done a pose closer to the art!

[@sonicexpert986]

I'm so glad I found this channel! I have learned so much and your work really inspires me!

[@LylaMev]

[@oreettroll]

That coffee filter tip, i'm definitely going to use that. I always get frustrated with the white edges when I cut out leaves.

[@centerededgedesignusa7957]

Its awesome to hear your process! Thank you!

[@GreyHouseGames]

This piece looks incredible! I'm looking forward to Yndrasta's release!

[@meronyach.]

Very nice! I never thought to use a red wash on brown, but it actually makes a lot of sense. I’ve heard to shade red with brown for more subtle shadows, and the same seems to work if you reverse the colours. I’m no expert on colour theory, though. Thanks for the great video.

[@XavierArnau399]

looks awesome!!

[@LylaMev]

Thank you!

[@astronaughtee]

IYou are a fantastic artist. Amazing job.

[@RisingApe]

The model looks great as always, but that base is excellent, great work

[@PrayerstotheDiceGods]

Amazing paint job as always, love it!!

[@gordonmarshall7743]

Hi Lyla, Another great video. Have to say I'm not a fan of AoS and that is unlikely to change. Also just wanted to say thanks for all the other videos that you have done, you do a great job of explaining the processes used. I found your explanation of light and shadow have certainly made a difference to my painting. Thanks again and stay safe. Oh and if you haven't tried it, I find Panzer Putty works better for masking than poster tac (or what ever you guys call it) and you can reuse it over and over again.

[@chriswilliams5128]

Very lovely, I'm stealing that coffee filter technique!

[@LylaMev]

Steal away!

[@daniellogue8365]

This is amazing prep work

[@cliff7641]

Excellent video! Subscribed! I'm going to go with a true metallic metal on mine (I've experimented with some Spaz Stixx color shift Green/Gold on a Stormcast Warband and am doing my whole army that way), but you've given me a lot of ideas, especially on the base.

[@WeGeekTogether]

Jaw dropping work. 😍 even with the time crunch this Is quite inspiring. I honestly like a deadline for painting models, i find I can dwell in a valley of hate and self loathing the longer I work on model...

[@benjamminallnight4821]

What an awesome video. I think could title the video 3 different titles and could still would be great video 1) you cover color theory and project design/planning 2 ) could be complete video covering painting techniques ( glazes dilution , dry brushing , creating texture and cohesion 3) nmm techniques. Very thorough video Thank you for all your videos

[@Lamefoureyes]

Hey Lyla! Your videos and process are always fascinating, I think I've learned the most from you as a painter on youtube (and I watch quite a few, you're seriously great)! In this video, when you're cutting between the two audio recordings, I could really pick up on how some of the clips, your microphone gain might be set a bit high (maybe because you're capturing audio while you're on camera?) Really loved the editing on this video!

[@LylaMev]

Yes! In still working on my audio.

Great stuff friend 👏 👍

[@deleriom]

I've been interested in Kimera colors, but haven't tried them. I'd be interested in hearing a full review on them. One thing you could do in time crunches like that for NMM is use oils. I'd experiment with them some time, but they can be amazing for putting together NMM blends very quickly. The way you are mixing your colors from Kimera isn't so different than setting up your oil blends. Often you would need to use less colors since the paint naturally blends on the model. It is a pretty big learning curve, but it's a thought.

[@jackgaylord6159]

Gorgeous work ,as far as the new models they look amazing,waiting till they get released individually,really excited by the orks and hobgrots

[@LylaMev]

With all of games workshops issues with cursed city I wasn't sure if they would release separately, thats why I was so excited to paint her, even with only 5 days!

@Lyla Mev - The Mini Witch Awesome video and fantastic explanations throughout. I'm nowhere near this level of skill, but there's loads I can take away from this. Thank you. I'm gutted that I foolishly glued on the wings to my Yndrasta figure, so it's goin to limit how much airbrushing I can do. My stormcast army was already and odd choice of green armour with red-orange accents, so I'll be a lil off-piste but the lighting tips regarding box art will help loads. If you have any advice I'd greatly appreciate it.

Amazing miniature (both the sculpt and your brilliant work on it), I love the silver and the leaves on the base especially! For airbrushing you used "poster tack", is this basically Blu-Tack (what I am used to) or is it a different product, does anyone know?

[@RuffStuff420]

Did you find the Kimera Colors paints to be too Matte of a finish for you? I won a box of them, and while I LOVE how well they coat, the matte finish is too dark, been thinking of using the bottle of satin medium just right into the bottles instead of individually everytime I use a color.

[@LylaMev]

I love my paint matte and usually put a matte varnish on my models at the end anyway.

[@RuffStuff420]

I usually do a matte varnish too... Yeah, I just have to get used to them I think. So used to GW and Vallejo paints that the extreme matte is a bit unsettling for my eyes, if that makes sense.

Just a curiosity question. Why use a glove on you brush hand? And not a glove on the other hand as it gets a lot of paint? Also, great video. Really a great way to learn as you explain very well the process. :D

[@LylaMev]

The oils from your skin can rub off the paint is the model isn't sealed. so if I have to hold the model itself when I'm paint I wear a glove or wrap or it in saran wrap.

[@AMaio]

@@LylaMev makes sense. But it’s not easier to use also glove to prevent getting paint in the hands? I’m fairly new but when I try to use an airbrush, if I didn’t use gloves I believe yet today I would be washing the paint. 😅
