Vince Venturela I think has some of the best videos on KZbin if you wanna improve your painting, his hobby cheating videos are just a treasure trove of knowledge.

[@earnestwanderer2471]

Yep. I’ll never paint like Vinny V. But I like that he pushes me to try harder and improve.

[@Bloodthirstier]

Vince Ventrula is amazing for when you see that one technique online and want to find out how to do it. He encourages you so much through the videos

[@spuriusligustinus4509]

Yeah, Vince is the best teacher on YT, there are literally hundreds of videos of his hobby cheating series. He's my go to source for resourceful information in a not overly long format

[@TheSianFromAtlantis]

[@frostyworldwide-fpv4586]

100%, Vince is unmatched when it comes to specific topics or themes/techniques

[@FlameonMiniatures]

Thanks for mentioning me! I do plan out each shadow and reflection in advance before I start painting, that’s why my miniatures look like this 😁😁😁

Lets not ignore RogueHobbies, who has an unflappably optimistic approach to this hobby and keeps the welcoming vibe alive.

[@martinmountford1981]

I think that getting a one off special of Rogue Hobbies, Goobertown and Eons of Battle would be amazing, the overwhelming positivity and good vibes they'd probably bring around world peace in an afternoon.

@@leeshipman8849 Hello Lee, apologies I don't think I saw your message. I've been dealing with a bit of post convention illness so it's possible I missed it. I am currently working on a series of videos on Trugg for Patreon and I plan to be uploading semi regularly to KZbin again soon. I am working on a fundamentals series for Patreon that started with glazing and will be continuing with edge highlighting etc very soon but perhaps the majority of content is more aimed towards mid/higher end painting rather than quicker army painting.

[@Scuzzlebutt142]

I heartily agree. I think what makes Duncans videos great is for people who are really that creatively inclined, and don't have the "artists eye", like myself, it gives a process you can follow that gives solid results without too much in terms of complex technique.

[@charliebohnsack3461]

I think Pete the Wargamer deserves a mention here too. He does the best conversion/kitbash/sculpting stuff on youtube in my opinion

[@baboubortmandu]

1,000%. He is what unearthed the chronic kitbasher in me. An event that has left me significantly lighter in the bank account, but significantly happier in the brain department.

[@Bodkin_Ye_Pointy]

I don't know about Pete. He has some weird ideas about colour selection. For example, he never uses black, he always substitutes with grey claiming it is better. Now it may be that the camera doesn't do the job justice because colour definition is a thing. But When I see soldiers running around in grey where there should be black, or when he painted ships from the Black Seas set with grey guns it just rubs the wrong way.

[@chapshobai]

Probably my favorite is Goobertown Hobbies. You are maybe the only other hobbytuber I know of who could present a more relentlessly positive spin on everything in the hobby. I also really like Miscast - he's not afraid to fail on camera and that's REALLY refreshing. So much of what we see is only super polished perfect end results which can leave us normal folk disheartened when we run into issues on our own hobby journeys. Finally Marco Frisoni and Dana Howl have inspired me many times to paint brighter and more vibrantly.

[@maybeyourbaby6486]

I'm obsessed with @heresyforheretics rn :O I really love how he goes for artistic expression above all, every mini he puts out is so cool and unique. I feel like it's pretty easy for all of us who got into mini painting from GW to just try to emulate 'Eavy Metal style and stay inside that comfort zone, and I always feel like @heresyforheretics manages to put all of that aside and find some beautiful essence in the plastic itself that he just channels into reality. I feel like I very easily obsess over technique when painting my own minis, and I love how HfH over and over shows that, first off, less is more, and second of all, we're trying to make art, not just boast about technique. Really has me asking myself, "does this extra layer of extreme highlighting bring me joy" lol Everything feels so deliberate. Artistic vision above all.

[@timreeves]

Yep, came to the comments to give him a shout out, he really helped me push myself when it came to volumetric lighting, contrast and colour. And I found more than any other creator, following his painting style on a few models helped me grow and improve in all my other painting in a more traditional style

This is what I always say when painting channels comes up. His talk about how he continues to have fun with the process is at least as good or better than his talk about the painting techniques themselves. (Not that he's any slouch at that either, as the golden demon on his shelf would attest.) I also like how he's constantly returning the basics, trying out variations on them, and talking through what they're meant to accomplish. Like a master musician who still makes time to practice the scales.

Slightly off topic… but… I’ve watched a few of your videos and subscribe etc. and they are all great, but the main thing is I think you are a genuinely good human being your outlook is always positive your content is great and you are so refreshingly enthusiastically nice about everyone and all aspects of the hobby - which you clearly know a lot about and are a very talented painter. In the over 40 years I have been involved with the hobby I think you (and @PeachyTips) are some of the best personalities and ambassadors for the hobby and the games.

I'd definitely add Artis Opus to the list. His deep love of slightly moist dry-brushing is exceptional.

[@apeman371]

One channel I adore because they are going hell for leather on their own thing is the Grimdark Compendium. They are especially good at teaching you how to use texture, either through kitbashing or making the paint work (using oils or mixing in varnishes to the paint). There is nowhere better to go if you want to paint something wild, dirty, and generally a bit gross.

[@TheSianFromAtlantis]

[@stuartspencer2161]

I would also add Juan Hidalgo, who does a lot with contrast paints, Ninjon, Miniac, Trovarion and Sam Lenz for experience, and teaching more advanced techniques in a simple manner, and Goobertown Hobbies is great for those people new to painting, with great tips, and his calm, relaxing, yet enthusiastic approach to painting.

I also found a few others, like squidmar, that has really given me that desire to pain to the best of my ability.

[@Bodkin_Ye_Pointy]

Obviously you can't name them all, but I noted that pretty much all the painters, with the exception of Peachy, were top end painters prepared to use a few hours on a single model. Midwinter Minis started their show demonstrating quick and easy paint schemes using minimal colours with quite surprising finishes. The same could be said about Sonic Sledgehammer, Mediocre Minis and Zorpazorp. Sonic Sle4dgehammer does historical rather than Sci-Fi but the technique is transferable. Besides, I just got into Bolt Action and he does that quite well. The point is, as Ninjon once said, "If you start off with five hours per model, you are never going to finish that army". By the way Ninjon completed one model that rates amongst my most favourite, a pirate Budgie. Look it up, it is brilliant in every way.

Great video with a few I'm off to follow now! I'm a big fan of Vince Venturella's painting tips and while he's far above my level, his guides are easy to follow and give a lot of great advice on painting from beginner to masterworks.

Oh GoblinGreen2021... be still my beating heart, those 2nd edition BA paint jobs!!

I want to nominate ‘SultanPlays40k’ channel. Their kit-bashing and saturated aesthetic that then sees life in battle reports is outstanding.

I was not expecting a Megadeth reference from you!

I know there are thousands out there, but if you haven't come across this account, I would absolutely recommend The Warsinger! They make super detailed and chaotic conversions and full own minis using wires, got glue, and absolutely stunning paintjobs!
