I will paint the Death Guard Talisman next! But what Warhammer faction after the Talisman would you like me to paint NEXT? ☺️

Awesome! Happy painting bro! ☺️🎨🎨🎨

[@howardcoates6985]

Nice job Don.. love the final look. 2 things: would like a refresher on the stipple glazing you were doing and love the little text details / pop ups you included here. Keep up the good work!

[@DonSuratos]

Thanks for the feedback man! Will do another glazing video soonish. ☺️🎨🎨🎨

[@s4pril]

​@@DonSuratosI am looking forward it :-)

This gives me a lot of insight as to how to refine my attempts at learning how to do this style of painting better! My initial attempts have been...decent, but not great. This is a great companion video to your beginners' video for this style, and is making me want to drop money on the Army Painter Speedpaints 2.0 set, further! My acrylics will never be replaced, but this is a perfectly good style to learn for speed and efficiency.

[@DonSuratos]

Thanks man, glad you enjoyed it! That's awesome about the speed paints, hope your painting gets better. ☺️🎨🎨🎨

Wow! Really love your video❤

[@DonSuratos]

Thanks bro. BUT I dis my usual skin glazing. 😊

[@NiteMarcher]

You’re awesome bro. I’ll be taking a few weeks off to take care of my dad. This is perfect as I can now paint all my Frosthaven Miniatures with my new Speed Paint set. These videos have been a godsend as it helps me plan out my first Speed Paint project

[@DonSuratos]

Hey man! Enjoy Speedpaint set and Frosthaven miniatures! Also I hope your Dad is well. Cheers! ☺️

[@jackn2462]

When referencing the color wheel, would it be possible to throw a little color wheel up on the corner of the screen with some arrows showing the colors you are talking about? I believe you but sometimes it is just easier to see!

[@DonSuratos]

Very much noted bro! Thank you for the feedback! ☺️🎨🎨🎨

I have also been experimenting with colored ('warm') slapchop. Some very interesting results can result. Nice to see others working in that space.

[@alphaleigpyne]

This was a decent double slapchopping video. Drybrushing Dorado Skin over the brown basecoat is great starting point for speedpainting.

[@DonSuratos]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😄

[@GabletzOfGhinletz]

You’ve earned a sub with this piece brother, that looks amazing, will definitely be trying this technique 😊

[@DonSuratos]

Hey thanks man! Pardon for the roosters in the audio, will take care of them soon. 😅

[@matteofuzz319]

Hi Don. The skin painting transition from post speed paint to final result could be very interesting. Are you thinking of posting that video clip anywhere?

[@DonSuratos]

I have a playlist of “how to glaze” miniatures bro. But I think I need to make a new one soon. I just need to finish some pending projects. ☺️🎨🎨🎨

[@Retrofun69]

cant wait. Awesome stuff Don. Can you do a black templar with double chop? Seems like black is a difficult one :(

[@DonSuratos]

Hey man! So early! I just need to paint a Grimdark Death Guard, then I could paint a Black Templar next. ☺️

[@bansheemonger]

Nice video, thanks for that. It'd be interesting to see the process from the double slapchopped mini to the final one. Especially for the skin. I mean the difference is quite stark, when I compare the mini at 9:18 to the mini at 11:32. So I'd like to know what steps are needed to achieve that look. Looks great!

[@DonSuratos]

Thanks! Will make just a skin video painting with SlapChop. I refrained showing my glazing, since my glazing videos get less views. ☺️

[@XThomasXDK]

Very nice videos ! Im new to this method, but i wonder about the "underpainting" steps, wont the very light/white final drybrush mask the warm brown undertone? No critic, just a question for understanding how to get started, im not a big fan of the finish from the Black/white basings, but the saturated warm tones looks very nice! Thank you for the sharing and comprehensive turorials!

[@DonSuratos]

Thanks! Once you apply the Speedpaints, it kinda reveals the underpainting again. Cheers! ☺️

[@XThomasXDK]

@DonSuratos Thanks! I will give it a try 🤘

[@DonSuratos]

@ Enjoy painting man! ☺️🎨🎨🎨

More warm double slapchop plx

Will do! Thanks for watching! :)

[@tonynoon8693]

I am going to paint up a Legion of the Damned kill team. I was thinking about trying a reverse slap chop starting with white, then yellow, red and finally black. I want to give the impression that the model is on fire inside the armor. Do you think this will work?

[@DonSuratos]

This will work mighty fine! Not sure if “reverse slapchop” is the perfect term, but with light pressure with the dry brushing, you should produce great results bro. 😊🎨🎨🎨

[@driggera]

I love this new method but could we please call this Chop Suey

[@DonSuratos]

Well, that is a tasty way to put it! ☺️

[@isannui]

Great Video!! out of curiosity, is it possible to purchase this miniature?

[@DonSuratos]

Unfortunately not at this scale sir. Just the 32mm scale at MMF.

[@benjaminlenert8768]

Hello! Did i understand you correctly that you can do the basic slapchop with airbrush? I recently started airbrushing with a H&S Ultra 2024. Wouldn't you get each color too much in the recesses by spraying compared to brushing ?

[@DonSuratos]

Oh you can airbrush Soeedpaints bro, BUT they won’t produce deeper shades on the recessed details. They will have very good coverage as base colors though. 😊

[@benjaminlenert8768]

@@DonSuratos And if i try to do a slap-chop i should not use the airbrush because the atomized paint would get into the recesses, regardless of speedpaints or normal fanatic paints, right?

[@DonSuratos]

@ would “not” get into the recesses bro. 😊

[@benjaminlenert8768]

@@DonSuratos Thank you! I was trying to replicate Ninjons "Speedpaint"-Technique, in which he undercoats with a gradient from purple at the bottom to white-sepia to the top. Perhaps you know the video. The result was not convincing, because (i think) he used GW contrast and i use army painter speedpaints. Or the ratio was to thin or whatever. Just now i did some Deep Ones from Cthulhu and sprayed speedpaints on one basic slapchop-Layer on gray primer. That gave me a nice gradient but no shadows so i ended up painting them with another layer of speedpaint. I am still trying to find the fitting technique to aquire and grow with for the next few models, which i can convincingly replicate. I Think i would try your warm slap-chop for the crimson croc from Kingdom Death. Dark-Grey Primer, then two airbrushed slap-chop layers of Sepia Brown and some warm yellow followed by speed paints... What do you think?

[@DonSuratos]

@ Oh… I rarely watch other miniature painter’s videos bro. Keep the underpainting simple, then let your blending and the Speedpaints do it’s magic. 😉

[@protyusgames4741]

I have been painting since 1978, and the development I hate the most in painting, is the word slapchop.

[@DonSuratos]

Bruh not my fault! The big channels made it too famous to ignore. 😬

[@VAMPIRE6100D]

I saw a video by no.6 minis and use this technique instead of doing all the initial drybrushing and save some time only prime it white then use dark tone wash and you will get the sameish effect for much less effort or use your 2 parts speedpaint medium to 1 part black speedpaint as the wash you use as a wash

[@DonSuratos]

Did the exact same thing with the Ultramarine video. ☺️

[@VAMPIRE6100D]

I'll have to watch it did not see that one
