I'm speechless, all the models released after AoS I had to paint in sub-assembly, it's just impossible otherwise with their poses and cloaks and whatnot. You can paint them fully assembled so casually!

[@Warhipster]

Haha! I'd be lying if I didn't say that it's taken a lot of patience and practice to get to this point!

[@vyanesh6487]

I literally just finished painting one of these a couple days ago and I wish I saw this video beforehand, I LOVE the way you painted the portal/mirror.

[@Warhipster]

Thank you so much! Hopefully you'll find it useful if you come to do something like the Mesmerising Mirror or Fane of Slaanesh.

[@darthmac8637]

Slowly, carefully, ameaturelly, picking tips/colors/inspirations from this video. Your models always come out great. My models would not be too pleasant on the eyes without your videos, thank you!

[@samhammel8268]

On one hand, looking forward to finishing kruleboy line on the other hand big fan of daemons especially Slaanesh and Tzeentch. Love the job you're doing on this.

[@Warhipster]

I'm glad you're enjoying them Dog!

Slaanesh was my least favoured chaos god, yet somehow they're suddenly my second favourite and I've just bought my first slaaneshi miniature. Won't be long until I get Nurgle and Tzeentch though I think D:

[@Warhipster]

You and I are on exactly the same Chaos Daemons journey I think! Khorne was always my favourite and now Slaanesh is. Who'd have thunk?

[@emilybarnett7313]

Hi, I've just started out painting and picked the Slaanesh army as my first one, I loved your videos for this and the daemonettes and they have really helped me. I was just wondering if you are going to upload any more Slaanesh videos? I currently have a Masque of Slaanesh ready to paint and was hoping you would a video guide :)

[@samhammel8268]

Also if you don't mind me asking, what do you do in order to seal models after you're done painting?

[@Warhipster]

Super simple - I don't! :D

[@randylahey77]

Great guide! Is there any reason not to do the Daemonettes in sub assembly?

[@nitrixuk]

@warhipster Thanks for this after following your deamonette video this is my next model to attack. Quick question what did you use for the "rocks" that are part of the models base? Thanks

[@Warhipster]

The sculpted ones on the bases that come with the model are picked up by Basilicanum Grey. Basically once all that Astrogranite Debris is dry I then shade it all with Basilicanum Grey including the stone. Then drybrush with Tyrant Skull and add some tufts!

What's the music you used at the start of the video?

[@Warhipster]

That is a track called Fugent by Lupus Nocte. I got it off of Epidemic Sound which is where I get all my music from!
