The Best Way to Paint Corsairs

[@ianjhobbies]

That is some really slick video editing. Thanks for the video.

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks Ian glad you enjoyed it!

[@scottywan82]

Love the paint scheme! The bird is especially cool!

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Cheers!

I've been trying to figure out how to paint mine for the past week and this has really helped, thanks

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Glad it helped!

[@astr0cade]

Painted one without using a lighter highlight on the undercoat and my stegadon ended up looking way too dark, so I think I’ll add some zenithal highlights on the rest of em thank you 🙏

[@davidteel7701]

Interesting take on the default scheme. It looks closer to the old Yriel paint scheme for the Eldritch Raiders. Could you do an Mymeara tutorial for their armor and cloaks, like you did for other craftworlds?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

I'll see if I get chance at all

[@liam5969]

Fantastic work as always man! I'm sure u have a massive lineup of things you want to paint and I know I asked about Jain zar recently. But since I've finally got to painting my characters after a year of painting my army, I realized there aren't any guides for how to paint yvraine at all, ynnead (other than gw and one airbrush one) and there are limited and not very informative/helpful tutorials for the visarch, maybe if you ever got a chance and if you were interested it'd be awesome to see a tutorial done by you on them

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks Liam - never say never but right now I haven't got plans for those models

[@tommy2dice885]

Wicked cheers for this

[@oliverbredbeck1425]

A bit late to the party here but I love the tutorial, gonna be following it for my own corsairs soon

[@ThePaintingCoach]

I really like how you did the bird 🐦

Thanks!

You've got a lot of skill. How do you get such a great point on your brushes? Mine all bend or splay a little. Appreciate it may be user error with washing them too violently...

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks - firstly make sure you are looking after them haha! I also use sable hair brushes The other thing I do is that as I take the brush out of the paint, I drag it backwards along the palette and twist so I get a nice point - also important not to put too much paint on the brush

[@doremicocoparis9410]

So niceee

[@doremicocoparis9410]

First hihi

[@ThePaintingCoach]

[@criticalfocuschannel]

[@joshuadtedd]

Excellent job! Will you be doing one for the Legionnaires?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Thanks Joshua - no probably not - I already have videos for the majority of the chaos legions, including Black Legion! Check my channel page :)

[@joshuadtedd]

@@ThePaintingCoach literally after posting this I found the Black Legion video and saved it for reference! Thanks for the awesome videos

[@ThePaintingCoach]

No problem! Glad you enjoyed them!

[@Questioningbasics]

Is zenithal highlighting strictly necessary for this color scheme? Great tutorial looking forward to trying this myself

[@ThePaintingCoach]

It isn't but it will help speed things up 👍🏻

[@supercowopp]

What kind of white did you prime with for the zenithal highlight?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

I used corax white from a can 👍🏻

[@supercowopp]

@@ThePaintingCoach Thanks for the reply! (Great video btw!)

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Cheers

[@bingorobins1010]

You gonna do the new avatar model when it's releases?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Yes I can't wait!

[@bingorobins1010]

@@ThePaintingCoach I don't even have any eldar and I'm thinking of getting one just because lol

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Yeah it's a great model!

[@jensmansens8516]

Question how can you paint the crossair rifle's ?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

I would say either: Wraithbone, thin skeleton horde, highlight pallid wych flesh Or: Ushabti bone, shade with skeleton horde, highlight with screaming skull and white
