Update!

I've just posted the latest video, this time it's the full process for painting a Castellax from the new Mechanicum box that Games Workshop sent me as a review copy.

You may remember that I had started this model before with a different colour scheme and using different techniques... well I stripped it and started again! I still have the recordings for the previous version, so I might upl...

How to Paint a Castellax Grimy

This video shows how to paint a Castellax from the new Mechanicum Battle Force box, which Games Workshop sent me as an early review copy. The painting is for a good tabletop standard and is designed to be quick and easily repeatable without the use of an airbrush.

The following paints were used:

Games Workshop: Balor Brown, Morghast Bone, Screaming Skull, Darkoath Fleah Contrast, Co...

Update!

I've just posted the additional video for the flamer NMM gold and Hazard Stripes on the gun as shown in the photo above! This should cover everything on the gun so far and compliments the video I posted on Wednesday.

Update!

I'm running a little late this week. I've just uploaded the latest video, which looks at the Van Saar weapon you can see in the photo above. I'm going to release another video before the weekend for how to paint the flamer NMM gold cover as I wasn't quick enough to get it into this video.

I will soon be starting another Necromunda video for the Spyrer model from the Hive Secundus box. T...

The next video will be part two for the Necromunda Van Saar model that I'm painting, as seen in the photo above. I had to cut his gun off to paint behind, that's why it's dropping a bit 😅

I've got more secret p...

ClawLord Part 2: Gnaw Beast

This is part 2 in a series for how to paint the Claw Lord on Gnaw-Beast Skaven leader from the Skaventide box set, to a very high (a bit too high) Tabletop standard.

Rhinox Hide, XV-88, Balor...

Update!

I've just posted the latest video, this time a Van Saar Heavy from the new Necromunda Hive Secundus, which Games Workshop sent me as a review copy.

Update!

I've just posted the latest video for the Skaventide box, this time it's part 1 of the Claw Lord on Gnaw-Beast. I've spent a little bit too long on him, but I think it's worth it for an army leader model. The rest of the skaven will be much quicker.

I will also be painting one of the Stormcast Eternal models in the new colour scheme.

Next weekend will be a new secret project which I...

Claw Lord on Gnaw-Beast Part 1

I'll be moving onto the next Skaven character, which will be the Claw Lord, which you can see in the photo above! I'll also be releasing a quick video for how to paint a clanrat very soon. This will be a much simpler process but will still fit into the army.

I'm in the process of building a Legions ...

There will be another build guide, this time for the Claw Lord on Gnaw Beast, which will be up tomorrow as I'm just waiting for it to process!

Don't worry...

Games Workshop: Rhinox Hide, Mournfang Brown, XV-88, Dechalla Lilac, Balor Brown, Morghast B...

Update!

I've just posted the latest video for Abraxia, this time looking at her weathered satin red cloak. I've used quite different techniques compared to other red cloaks I've done, and this one results in a very strong, deep red colour.

I haven't been too active on social media lately as I've been working away on secret projects that will be revealed soon! 🐀🐀🐀 I'm very excited to shar...

Abraxia Satin Cloak with Weathering

This video is the latest in a series for how to paint Abraxia from the Slaves to Darkness army. This particular video looks at her red cloak and uses a slightly different technique to how I have previously painted cloaks, to give a stronger red with a slightly shiny finish, making the cloak red particularly strong.

The following paints were used:

Games Workshop: Khorne Red, Barak-Na...

Update!

I've just posted the latest video for Abraxia, this time looking at her head/skin, eyes and horns. The video goes over some of the difficulties with this sculpt and the fact that I modified it.

Also, I am not sure if it will be interesting or not, but I was sent a BenQ camera for free, to try out to see if it is useful for creating youtube videos as a cheaper alternative. 2024-06-11 22:11:15 +0000 UTC View Post

Update!

I've just posted the latest guides! First up is a long video on how to paint the armour panels on Abraxia's monstrous mount. The panels are a little complex, so the video goes into a lot of details about the how and why I do things a certain way on them.

I also posted two links to PDFs, the first for the Direwolf Titan for Legions Imperialis and the second for the Abraxia Build Guide.

PDFs for Direwolf Titan and Abraxia!

My wife has started to turn some of my recent tutorials into PDFs, starting with the Legions Imperialis/Adeptus Titanicus Direwolf titan and the how to build guide for Abraxia.

More PDFs will be coming!

The links for the PDFs are here:

I've just posted the latest video, this time it's an update to the Malignant Plaguecaster! You may notice he is now missing a hand, as the flies and smoke are being stripped and repainted. He is being prepared now as part of a Golden Demon entry for the unit category!

The video looks at more of his armour panels and trim, along with some Nurgle corruption.
