07.05.2023great work mate!

07.05.2023Can I substitute Bold Titanium white with White Scar itself when it comes to edge highlighting? Does Soulblight Grey darken it enought for White Scar to make that edges pop?
Scotty Skips
07.05.2023Another priming tip… it has been very hot out. The can recommends a max 77 degrees fahrenheit. Heed that warning. I used it the other day and the paint dried before it hit the mini leaving a grainy texture across my model.

07.05.2023i imagine the suggestions of soul blight will make painting my sacred rose sisters much easier then the attempt i made with army painters holy white
Guy Solomon
07.05.2023This is very validating as I'm planning on doing this method for my solar watch Custodes. Another thing to try is mortarion grime for a super grungy white

Great video
Icarus Games
07.05.2023Da iawn ti! Looks great — the new contrast and shade paints are really nice. I've been enjoying playing around with them a lot.

07.05.2023Respect to your scheme, but one change I would make would be after the striking scorpion green I would use some spiritstone red on the eyes with a small detail brush and a very fine point. Personal preference.
RJ LaRose
07.05.2023The new grey wash is really nice. But I still think apothecary whites finish is my fav.
Aegis
07.05.2023I'm really excited to try that soul blight grey to paint a white horse for a cavalry unit.

Abbi Play
05.05.2023Cool. Pls a Black Space Marine like Raven Guard next. The new Black Legion Contrast ist rly cool.
Rhys Chapps
05.05.2023I'm just happy you aren't one of those wankers who pulls out an airbrush on their 'quick and easy' painting video 😂
Burn Bobquist
05.05.2023Could it be? Could i finally paint some white Tau? 😀
Doug C.
05.05.2023Gorgeous!! I need to try this on some Sigmarines!!!
Happy Hunter
05.05.2023Fast? Nobody can beat me. I just use a cheap white spray can. Ultimate cheat
bryant prak
05.05.2023They way he painted his eyes makes my attempt look like grade school work
AJables
05.05.2023Cracking job mucca. Going to use this when doing my World eaters!
Sean McCormick
05.05.2023Definitely going to use this for storm troopers in star wars legion!
Brian Crothers
30.04.2023Thank you! That was amazing!
POWER Serg
30.04.2023I don't have a white armor army, but I'll try this out using the White contrast paint instead of the wash.
Morretti Games
30.04.2023Painting in white just makes you stronger. I choose the chogorian way and play the white scars. It’s tough but when I get a chaplain or librarian and can use other colors. The skill comes out because it’s so much easier
T E
30.04.2023Looks good, interesting how the grey wash keeps the white clean, vs. Choosing to do like a darker bone type of wash.
Perry
30.04.2023Painting White is the only reason why I never started white scars.
So thank you for this video!
Metalichap
30.04.2023Fun fact, as my chapter is not white at all I though this video would not be that usefull, but thanks to you I discovered the Black Templar contrast and I can stop wasting my time trying to highlight my Abannon Black bolter edges with grey xD
Sam Gibson
30.04.2023Adopts an arrogant nasal overtone "That's actually an Imperialis, not an Aquila"
Lysanthir VT
30.04.2023this will make painting my custom eldar super easy. Since I already have apothecary white I'm going to see how it would look with that instead of the soulblight shade
Pervy Turtle
30.04.2023wow thats even speedier than the speed paint technique Ive tried
Euan Smith
30.04.2023Nice. It is also great to hear a Welsh accent.

29.04.2023For pro acryl, where do you get those caps? All the ones at my local game store are twist caps and I'm not a huge fan
Allan Burt
29.04.2023Fantastic work 👏
Dave Porter
29.04.2023This is also really helpful for setting up old school World Eaters and other white armored chapters. Well done!
James Singleton
29.04.2023Are you using contrast paints? If so what’s the mix? I’m always nervous about using contrast because I’m not sure how to.
Jake Carney
29.04.2023Looks ace! What did you use on the base and the legs to get that dust on the feet to match so well? Looks super effective!
Melstoast
29.04.2023Seems like I found out parts of this formula by accident already, minus the contrast paint and having a few differing steps. Nice!
SweAtilaa
29.04.2023Gonna do a 5 man space marine squad where everyone is from a different chapter and this is a really nice white armor! Might do something like that, minus the contrast step since contrast paint is pretty expensive, especially for a paint I won use too much.
Tough I do get Black Templar contrast paint, really like the black with green/blue tones, feels more real than both Black Legion and Army Painter’s speedpaint black.
Ben Collins
29.04.2023How did you do the base and base blending on the boots?
