Guy thanks for making this and showing that it’s alright to paint on “done” models already. Need to go over my older models and touch them up with highlights

Yeah I had never really thought about it this way before. But now I think about it, it was so obvious because really any part of the model is "done" when it dries

I've started doing this a lot. Now I paint a lot of my models to get them what I consider 80% done, so I can get a good looking army on the table (I HATE playing with grey unpainted minis), and then slowly go back over my army a squad at time and finish them up. Add edge highlights and some shading and more details.

Personally my Zapped Ead'z (Deffskulls "Succesor Klan") Orks are a mix of purples, blues, creams and blacks and a desaturated green skin. They're run from the shadows by a warp lightning powered Gretchin named Ziggurat Skrawl who controls all the Big Bosses from the shadows. Embrace the colour chaos and the fun is glorious.

Amazing paintjob! Personally I think edge-highlighting always makes things look super cartoony though, which is something that doesn't appeal. But that's just a matter of stylistic preferences. The execution is absolutely stellar!

Possible Hot Take: With the exception of missing a few highlights I like your original top skull better. IMHO it makes sense because it's sitting atop the exhaust system for the power armour so it wouldn't be far off for it to be very grungy and dirty. Just my personal opinion but if you're happy with the end result that's all that matters. Seen at 20:44

I agree. There are some details that came out great with the repaint, but the new purple armor looks a bit...cartoony? EDIT: Obviously, Guy's opinion on his own model is what matters most.

The painting styles popular in the Warhammer community are generally more about what 'looks cool' than what is realistic, so the more you do it the more you end up with something that looks like concept art of a comic book or a cartoon character or a CGI render, etc. Edge highlighting has been around as long as I can remember (since at least the 90s) and that's not how light works in real life, but you try telling that to the biggest company and fan base in the industry/hobby! You have to find a style that you like, and not assume that how everybody else seems to do it must be correct or that you have to fit in with them. (It helps that I paint historicals rather than sci fi and fantasy)

I'm with you. There are a lot of areas that are hugely improved , especially the face and metals, but i much preferred the old skull and the overall feel of the purple armour too

Would love to see an extension of this where you take a model that "failed " and make it work without stripping Taking a failed project and turning it into a winq

God I love watching Guy paint and talk about his color theory. I know hardly anything but its so enjoyable to watch him do it so seemingly effortlessly.

The yellows on the final product make me feel warmth in my cold dead heart. Great job mate!

I'm sure a million people have already said this, but I was HOLDING MY BREATH for Dana to pop up every time you mentioned "Pale Sand".

Couldn't come at a better time. Painting Da Boss right now and I'm all over the place. Thank you

Guy! This episode is the reason I appreciate You and your contributions to the hobby so very much. Like others that have outright declared what could be considered as prima facie disabilities (Jeremy #Black Magic Craft , Mitch #Terrainosaur

Well this was absolutely amazing. Love the tips and tricks you always incorporate in your tutorials and the way you show that anyone can paint to whatever standard they want. Really inspires me and I can't wait for the next orky video

What's interesting there is the process of speed painting / tabletop painting the army first so you can play with it. Then, "complete" the paint job on the main pieces when you have free time, just to relax and enjoy it. Very sound process.

I always get caught up trying to make every miniature as good as possible. This is such a good way of handling it - paint everything to a set standard and then come back to it later in the future to improve! I usually strip everything and start over, but this saves time and allows you to play with it from the get-go!

Been very captivated by purple lately and this video makes me appreciate purple in its applications

This is such a good tutorial. I feel like you've covered so many great little guides in each hour and i've learned so much.

Aye a nice video for Sunday

WAAAAAAAAGH APPY ORKTOBER LADZ! Love being able to watch another awesome Ork video while painting me a Deff Dread!

Of all the KZread big mini names, you're the one I enjoy the most because you're the kind of balanced hobbyist I identify with: decent painter with a "this is for gaming" approach. I love it. Great tips. The stippling brush was an awesome touch!

Another MWM video! Weekend made even better. Seriously, I watch your videos when I'm feeling low, and they always perk me up. They're always really wholesome, I find 🙂

Glad I found your channel, as an ever improving painter. You have a really simple - straightforward way of showing techniques that is super helpful!

One of my fav' things to go by when making things is "perfection is the enemy of completion".

Fantastic video and really appreciated you walking us through your reasoning for each section.

Ahhhh this is my JAM.... I'll be following your fast and effective schemes... I've got sooo much to paint and am still in the build phase. thank you for your continued content... I hope to be able to get mine to this level by the end of the month.... Bravo!

I love the new finish!! It feels like something out of a comic book almost, with the brighter edge highlights. Awesome job as ever :D

I absolutely love the art style showed off in this video. The saturation mixed with the scratchy very bright, vibrant highlights along with the variations in mid tone shadow and highlight concentration are tons of fun to look at. Good job Guy.

I always have a feeling of joy when I see a new upload

The music at about 15 mins in reminded me of a game I used to play on the Commodore Amiga. I racked my brains and then it came to me... Walker by Physignosis. Awesome game. Thanks for that bit of nostalgia Guy 👍😀

That's amazing. Its interesting to watch you work for an extended period of time on one model. You have this wonderful sketchy style, I'd be curious to see you attempt a comic book painting style at some point. You're videos are always an inspiration and they do a fantastic job of making this hobby seem so approachable.

Turned out absolutely beautiful. Love seeing content like this and the creative process behind it. Really inspires me to get back into painting.

Seeing stuff like this reminds me why i got into the hobby in the first place lol

This is very engaging and watchable, which isn't easy to achieve with a painting "step by step" sort of video (granted it's much more than that). Well done, great video!

With the amount of Pale Sand you are using in this video I can just imagine how happy Dana Howl must be!

I like the edge highlighting. It does add a cartoony feel I guess, but to me it makes it look reminiscent of video game graphics which I think makes it really neat.

This is by far my favorite content! Fast paced vid of a very well done paintjob

I was looking forward to this video since you had yor grind through your whole army...well done and big thanks!

I love how well this shows that you don't need to just blast everything with black to make it grimdark, you can still keep vibrancy and colour in while staying grim and foreboding.

That's wonderful! Love the texture on the tusks. Pale Sand, steady hand, can't fail.

I thnk that looks really good Guy, love the highlighting style on that purple armour. Well done!

I painted my first BloodMaster of Khorne a few days ago, first mini aswell, spend a solid 7 hours straight painting, time ran away like nothing, yet it was suprisingly relaxing

Fantastic work, Guy. Love your channel.

Just the work on the armor itself sells the piece. Nice

title say 20 hr, and the video is only 20 mn, i feel robed :D thanks for the video guy.

Beautiful work Guy. What a difference.

That glazing on the orange parts was incredible. And encouraging to see that it’s achievable! Will always be inspired to paint better and more confidently by you Guy, ever since coming across that first Ork boy video! Thanks so much!

Absolutely amazing video and exactly what I needed now. Didn't have the motivation to paint tonight but your video fixed that. Off to finish off my Eldar Warp Hunter.

That thing is insane. I love the paint job

Really came out great! I love the contrast compared to your typical, speedier, guides. Both are awesome, but even better in contrast.

Daaaaaammmmmmnnnnn! That mini looks sick. Makes me wish every month was Orktober.

Awesome model. Fantastic paint job. Keep up the good work.

Nice, added the video link to my paint plan for my AG Orcs this month! The bone, tusk and teeth were giving me anurism's trying to figure out with just my Vallejo medieval colours set.

insane, crazy video… congrats for the end result and dedication

Stunning

Mate, i remember getting in to minis when i was a kid in the 80's. My local GW shop buying Citadel paints and over priced lead cast minis. I was earning £3/week at the time with my paper round so it was a real treat to be able to buy this stuff, super hard to afford an army. Fantastic to watch all your work, bringing back great memories. Thank you.

Guy this looks so good!!! Absolutely amazing paint job!

The finished product reminds me of comic book art. It's really cool.

This is so great on many levels! First a big thanks that you show us what happened to your Orks after your amazing batchpainting. I adopted your Ork recipe for my own collection and love it, since it’s supereasy to extend its level of detail after the wash-stage. I’m just prepping up more Orks to do a big batch-painting during Orktober :D Have to say, the orange is the most impressive detail on your Ghazz, next to the red lights. Not sure if I’m gonna get this model for myself, but yours is truly a blessing to watch at. Excited for your next ork content.

It looks insane!!!

This looks so awesome if I had that model in my army I would show off how amazing it’s been painted to everyone I’m excited for the next vid and I hope the twins are doing well 👍

Wooow. As much as I love the quick and dirty speed painting videos, seeing this was really inspiring too. I hope we get to see more of these :D

Love the colors

Such a cool paintjob, you've improved lots guy

Always love to see some Orks! (I totally agree on Xereus and Royal Purple being the best two purples - love to use both of them myself too!). Awesome video!

That looks awesome!

I feel like Guy uses "Pale Sand" as much as Sorastro uses "deck tan". LoL Great video, Guy! Keep up the good work.

Awesome video! I love the orks and October is my birthday month! Ghazghull is my favorite minuture to paint and you did a wonderful job! Looking forward to all the Ork related videos this month

Great job, guy.

Great spruce up of an awesome model

Great job. Loved the vid.

This looks so good. I'm inspired.

Nice work Guy, great advice and good use of the time you allowed yourself. Props for sticking to the time limit too. One thing I'd add/recommend trying would using sponge to apply speedy highlights and textures, you can achieve some really nice effects with very little time expenditure.

That looks so much better!

Absolutely gorgeous model Guy!

Great job Guy well done

Orktober has officially begun!!!!

I absolutely love bright colored paint jobs

That new Black Metal Midwinter Minis tee looks amazing! I missed out on a wiggly bois shirt in my size, so I am excited.

This is one of the best examples of OSL I have seen most people go overboard and obliterate the detail on the areas they are highlighting well done!

That looks amazing, great job!

I’m sooooo excited for orktober this is gonna be amazing!!!!!!

Incredible work Guy.

LOVE Purple Orcs!!! So Incredible Hulk!

Keep up the good work the colour of purple mixed so we'll with the Ork armour!

I don't paint minis at all, just sort of like crafts and art and stumbled in to midwinter minis. But I love the channel and watch every episode! super cozy cheers

I really enjoyed watching you upgrade a previous paint job! Perhaps more re-paints in the future?

Magic Metal looks beautiful, probably the best brass colour paint I’ve seen.
