    Dude, this may be one of your older videos, but I finally got a Demon Prince and this was one heck of a tutorial!! Thank you so much! Mine may not look as good as yours, but he turned out A LOT better then I thought he would. Time to finish up the base and give him a final look before he goes up on display. Next up, is the sorcerer in terminator armor.

    I am so glad to be subscribed to your channel! I am a student learning so much from these quick and straight to the point lessons. I am curious, when it comes to gold, I have noticed a lot of fellow hobbyists use Liberator Gold as the highlight to Ret.Armor. I personally have Auric Armour Gold and wondering if I should go out and buy Liberator Gold or stick with what I have? Is Liberator Gold > Auric Armour Gold?

    You should show the skin more when drybrushing with the first purple/pink colors. You show the backpack quite a lot but not the front of the mini. If you drybrush the skin like the backpack it will show up way pinker than what you have in your video. The first good look at the front, face and skin is when you start painting the armor.

    I’ve been using this tutorial for months now to paint Daemon skin for my other models, absolutely love the colour. But now it’s finally time to use the whole thing and paint my Prince of Darkness. Have a question though: if you were painting the wings would you use the screamer pink on the “bone-y” bits and keep the membrane black like you did for your Khorne Daemon Prince?
